    Thank you man. I'm gonna try this. BTW, does the trimming affect something that may cause crashes? Thanks.

    Hacking Acekard 2i DSL - Backups crashing, Moonshell refuses to work.

    Hello there! I have a DSL + AK2i + SanDisk 2GB, running akaio 1.6rc1. First I was playing Cradle of Rome, and it crashed (green background just after the completion of a stage), i thought it was because the game was trimmed, so i didn't mind. However, some games that aren't trimmed also...

    Hacking Amazing DSL Custom Paint Job. No more yellowed R/L also. :D

    Hello there Just bought an (very-) used white NDS Lite. It was very yellowed where the plastic doesn't have the transparent acrylic cover. I tried to clean it using alcohol and toothpaste, everything became as white as snow but the R/L Buttons, the yellowing somehow penetrated into the...

    Hacking Why can't I install a DSL battery in an old DS?

    Okay. Little update guys. Just measured an almost new DSL battery using a hi-precision multimeter and found that the battery fully-charged outputs 4.18v while on "zero-load" (dunno if the expression is correct, sorry) and it drops a little bit to 4.15v initially while supplying the DS (low...

    ROM Hack HOW CAN I EXTRACT.......

    I also tried to hack GTA and ended giving up because these files has their own packing that the game extracts "on the fly" and it's very hard to figure out how it is packed. Also, i'm a PHP programmer, not a hardcore hacker . Open it up with a Hex editor and it's possible to notice "script"...

    Hacking Why can't I install a DSL battery in an old DS?

    What about using three of these hi-quality batteries?: They are 1.2v but fully charged I measured 1.36V, and almost totally discharged 1.05V. So at most it would output 4.1V. I think it isn't dangerous as the original battery should also vary a lot. And i could glue a 3-slot batteries holder...

    Hacking Just returned my AceKard 2i because it's a batt hog! Need anot

    Yes, it's true. There are 4GB non-hc cards, however, I just changed my mind and don't want to buy a 4GB one after reading this: http://gbatemp.net/index.php?showtopic=79115 I was not able to find em on eBay, but in my country it's easy to find them but they are known to work well only with...

    Hacking Just returned my AceKard 2i because it's a batt hog! Need anot

    Thank you very much guys! Leonidas; They don't sell AK2.1, just the older 2 version. Maybe it's pirated... or maybe it's the 2.1 version and the guys don't know and sell as 2. Also, i'm gonna buy a 4gb microSD (not HC) to test because i'm unreturning my Ak2i. The batt is very old actually, and...

    Hacking Just returned my AceKard 2i because it's a batt hog! Need anot

    Thanks guys. CycloDS is just impossible to buy in my country. The options are: Acekard 2i Acekard 2 (not 2.1) R4 SDHC R4 (cheap) R4 (quality, costs twice the above, it's apparently the same, but comes with all the (well-pirated) accessories) R4 Pocket R4 Upgrade SDHC DSTT TTDS (don't know if...

    Hacking Just returned my AceKard 2i because it's a batt hog! Need anot

    Thanks guys. I just found that it may be the fact that i was using a SDHC card, and a microSD would provide better autonomy. Also, it seems that during the sleep mode the SD has to be energized. I'm almost "unreturning" my AK2i, because cyclo seems to have the same problem, and i couldn't find...

    Hacking Why can't I install a DSL battery in an old DS?

    Thanks guys. I'll surely try to do it! First i'm deciding which flashcart to buy as i just returned my Acekard 2i. I'll post screens here later when it's working. I just want to make sure there's no way for it to explode during the use and i'm gonna try another shops to see if i am able to...

    Hacking Just returned my AceKard 2i because it's a batt hog! Need anot

    Hello there . I bought an AceKard 2i to use in my DSP, however, one of the most important things to me is the battery life (my battery's old, but i'm gonna change it and want it to last a lot). The problem is, the battery lasted for 60% of the time playing the same game on catridge. So I need...

    Hacking Why can't I install a DSL battery in an old DS?

    How? Using wires?... Because the DSP battery has the electronic conectors on the right side (according to the writing coordination) and the DSL battery has them on the bottom side: DSP DSL Thanks

    I haven't been gaming for such a long time. Been mostly busy with sleep, hardware tinkering and checking GBAtemp frequently.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Hope you've had a good morning.
  • Maximumbeans @ Maximumbeans:
    It's going alright thanks :) I know what you mean with gaming time. It's precious where I can get it these days.

    I think that's why I focus on just enjoying single player experiences that aren't too competitive
  • Maximumbeans @ Maximumbeans:
    How are you doing?
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    There's also this thing where I'm hyperfocused at night and cannot get to sleep.

    @Maximumbeans, Indeed. I've been working on getting this Infecutus chip to work on my PS2. But after soldering, I realised that a plastic piece was missing from the power ribbon cable to the power and eject buttons.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Now I could go with soldering the contacts from the cable to the connector on the mobo, but doesn't sound like a good permanent solution.
  • Maximumbeans @ Maximumbeans:
    Man, that's beyond my brain :rofl: I'm no good with hardware for now. I'd like to get into hardmods in future though
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Maximumbeans, Maybe start practice soldering. Get a cheap-ass soldering iron and follow some good YouTube tutorials.

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Least my experience has gotten better than over a decade ago. My iron would constantly bump into components and break them.
  • Maximumbeans @ Maximumbeans:
    Sounds good. I actually did soldering but like 16 years ago for school so uuuuh probably rusty haha
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Maximumbeans, Same here. I did soldering at school from a teacher who I honestly liked since he had plenty of good electronics experience.

    @Maximumbeans, I had a friend who had a glass chess set for their birthday.
