EZ Flash Omega DE rumble not working

metroid maniac · Jan 27, 2022

I recently bought an EZ Flash Omega Definitive Edition. The cart works well, except for the fact that the rumble feature does not work.
I patched Pokemon R&S Pinball ROM for rumble support, but there is no rumble in game.
I also tried a DS game. With the mode B selection on rumble and the physical switch toggled, the cartridge is recognised as a DS option pak on the main menu. However in game in Metroid Prime Pinball the cartridge is unrecognised, and the rumble option is greyed out.
I tried updating the kernel and firmware, but this didn't help.

Any advice on how to get this to work? Did I buy a faulty cartridge?

Make sure RTC is enabled in settings as that also enables rumble

This solved the problem in Pokemon R&S Pinball for GBA, but not Metroid Prime Pinball for DS.

EDIT: I have discovered the problem is because I was playing MPP from an unlabelled R4i clone. Using a different flashcard, the rumble feature works correctly.
