    SuperFW: a custom firmware for Supercard

    Interesting... did you boot from the .gba file and then install the firmware update? Or just installed the update without booting into the .gba file?

    SuperFW: a custom firmware for Supercard

    Love SuperFW, and think it is an absolute godsend that drastically improves the usage and value of inexpensive GBA flash carts With that being said, the update procedure needs to be improved. I'm on SuperChis and have to deal with so many "invalid checksum" errors before I can actually get it...

    Hardware SuperChis Prime: How I Fixed the SuperCard SD's Flaws on a Budget

    I think you have a bad unit. I'm playing on an 003 motherboard version GBA with IPS screen and everything plays great from NOR flash. Even Pokémon Unbound which is a huge rom hack

    Any way that RTC emulation can be improved for more Pokémon rom hacks?

    Can confirm that as long as you wait about 10 seconds to turn off your GBA after saving, that you shouldn't have to worry about corrupt save (5 hours into a new save and haven't had one yet)

    Hardware SuperChis Prime: How I Fixed the SuperCard SD's Flaws on a Budget

    Yikes. I had Pokemon Unbound loaded into flash on the SuperChis and after the 2nd save the save file corrupted itself. Really displeased with the experience so far :( 1771015450 Update. Guess the solution was to just brute force it? After failing once, I clicked on the fw file again after it...

    Yup. Ensured that it was the chis version. And tried redownloading the file again to see if that changes anything and it unfortunately doesn't

    Hardware SuperChis Prime: How I Fixed the SuperCard SD's Flaws on a Budget

    Just received my superchis prime from chisfamily store and it came with .18 firmware on it. I have tried every possible method of upgrading it to .19 and am getting badchecksum error. And yes, I am going based off of the firmware flashing instructions on the superfw site which I know you must...

    Hardware SuperChis Prime: How I Fixed the SuperCard SD's Flaws on a Budget

    @MrMannn @Victorum really appreciate you both doing this testing for me. I really think the next point of improvement with Superfw/SuperChis Prime is to really get RTC emulation working for some of these popular Pokémon rom hacks. Completely understand that getting this feature working for...

    The game will tell you immediately upon booting into the menu if the RTC is working

    Mind testing with Pokémon Unbound? It didn't work the greatest on Supercart and RTC functions didn't work at all

    Hardware SuperChis Prime: How I Fixed the SuperCard SD's Flaws on a Budget

    How is the compatibility with Pokemon ROM hacks? Specifically Pokemon Unbound? Had a horrendous experience with a highly rated supercart product that came pre-loaded with Superfw that eventually kept corrupting my saves for Unbound and eventually had a battery that wouldn't load any saves to...

    SuperFW: a custom firmware for Supercard

    I shouldn't have to go through all of that just to get a functional product. I'm starting the return process and just purchased a SuperChis Prime for less than what I bought the SuperCart for

    SuperFW: a custom firmware for Supercard

    4 hours into a new Unbound save and now my cart won't load any of my 3 past save files :( I think many of my past issues can be attributed to a crappy cart (even though I bought one of the highest rated and most purchased ones on Ali) Going to try the chis flash next
