There isn't really much to say on the matter. I'm on SysNAND 7.2 or something, and EmuNAND 10.2, and I can no longer open GBA games. They are installed on both SysNAND and EmuNAND, so it should work just fine, correct? All I get now is a black screen.

Does anyone have any idea how to fix this?

Thanks

Do you also have the AGB_FIRM-Patched cia file installed on both the sysnand and the emunand? Even if you do, it might be worth reinstalling on both of them. That's all you need, that installed on both NANDs, and the same copies of each game installed on both NANDs.

Have you changed anything recently? For instance, upgrading rxtools to a more recent build? It's true though that you don't need patched AGB_firm if you have the GBA game installed on both nands.

Nothing comes to mind, unfortunately. Except maybe I was messing around with the DS Profile Settings in a fruitless attempt to get the exploit involving it to work, with mset and the likes, but I don't think that would be anything to do with it.

it work for me (i have rxtools installed and sys nand 4.5 if it matters)

That's not really a relevant or needed response, sorry... I know that it's supposed to work, mine doesn't.

I'm not sure what could be wrong. But if you have a spare sd card why not format a new emunand and see if it works. If yes then maybe the problem comes from the emunand you're using now. If no then probably the problem lies in either sysnand (AGB_firm or GBA cia or the mset you played with) or rxtools. Try to rule out the possibilities and maybe you can gradually solve the problem. I just found another guy who also messed up with mset resulting in bottom screen not functioning in DS mode. Not sure whether it is relative to your case. But it's true that hacks in mset sometimes do more than we supposed to.

That's a good idea, I may have to try it in the morning. Thanks for the help, I'll bump this post up tomorrow around this time when I've tested around a little.
