Try booting your flashcart while holding (Start)+(Select) on power on.
If this does not work, you will need another firmware chip.

Does it boot slot 1 or 2? I only have a Slot 1 Card.
I think it tries both slots. At least I can boot SLOT-1 by holding (Start)+(Select) – the green power LED flashes while forcing boot this way; this only works if a minimum of FlashMe has already been written. 1% is probably not enough.

Try anyway. Else there is only the firmware chip hotswap. (Or if you get a badly damaged DS-Lite with a working chip do the "make one good device out of two bad").

Good luck!
