Hacking Did I kill my DSTWO Plus?

[rusty_train]

I heard that ONDS/DSi/DSL fixes the original DSTWO, not the DSTWO Plus (prty much just a DSTWO with a gateway 3DS simulator)
but i'll try it
(I have weird abreviations. ONDS = Original DS; DSL = DS Lite)

yea no idea, i read somewhere you could do it when my weird rom cart messed up but couldnt afford a ONDS or NDSL so just got a DSTWO, that was back in 2011 though

-- UPDATE --
I found a old DSi that I forgot I had while looking for another MicroSD card.
It hadn't been updated to the current version, so I decided to run the card.
I got the "An error occurred, look at the manual because we want you to waste time looking for information that isn't there" screen.
umm excuse me
I should get an original DS next saturday. Expect an update.

ok, if all else fails, try another SD card

==UPDATE==
I just got the DSL. it seems to work fine, but nothing shows up when the DSTWO is put in. Also tried another SD Card.
The terminals might have got dirty again. I'll clean them rn.

Just finished cleaning. No dice...

The DSTWO decided to start working! But... the DS freezes on attempt to boot to the cartridge... (only on "AUTO" mode, auto-boot to cart, y'know it doesn't show up in menu)

Your dstwo need an card update.
Google that and it will work again.
Mine works on 11.0 without .cia

Download the latest firmware update from here:-
http://down.supercard.sc/download/dstwo/Firmware/Firmware_v1.25_eng.zip
Copy the dstwoupdate.dat file to the root of your SD card, then load it up on the DS Lite.

Ok, sorry for abondoning this thread all year.
I decided to finally try to use my DSTWO again.
I was very surprised to find that it flashes a game icon for ~1 second, not enough time for me to start it.

Don't forget the lowtech method. Paperclip or a piece of paper between the back of the 3DS and the DS2.

I've tried to do anything I can. Nothing's really working. (sorry for abandoning this forum for all year)
I'll give you my SD Card contents for reasons, idk.
I have never booted up EOS ever so far.

==minirant==
Jesus, I have never booted up ANY OS on ANY Flashcart. I've wasted tons of money trying to get a flashcard to work at all. WTF! I've had like 6 DS flashcards!

Try the piece of paper below the card. maybe it doesn't reach far enough in the slot? google flashcart paper trick?

When the card pops up (it only has on the DSi so far with that trick) I press it and "An error has occurred." fak

well those DSTWO+ are cheep as hell, mine just gave up on life without any physical/software damage. just woke up one day and it was having trouble reading, i had to constantly blow the cartridge and it worked. then couple more days later it wouldn't even show up on any device, even a ds lite or dsi

Yeah, a fucking flashcart CPU is "cheap as hell". Uh-huh.

When I get the chance I'll try using a heat gun on it to see if that helps anything
