Hacking AKAIO 1.5.1 Bug List

[LittleBigMods]

There are a lot of bugs that I noticed only on AKAIO 1.5 and AKAIO 1.5.1. I don't remember exactly what all of them were, but I'll edit this post once I either find more, or remember what they were.

Bugs:

• Cheats don't work with some games (i.e. Pokémon SoulSilver) after being patched, even if the Game ID remain the same
• The AKAIO menu freezes if the DS is put into standby mode
  

Fixes:


Legend: Change (Not a bug, but a significant change in AKAIO 1.5.1 from previous versions) Bug (No fix found) Bug (Semi-fix found) Bug (Fix found)
Note: This legend only applies to the "Bugs" list. If there are colored sections in the "Fixes" list, that is because there are multiple fixes that are grouped to one, specific problem.
Note: A semi-fix means that an unpractical fix was found for that specific bug.

3.values would/might be different so naturally cheats won't work this thread is crap.

Those aren't bugs, softreset and cheats are disabled by default. You need to enable them in the settings screen.

In AKAIO 1.4, even while on "Default", the soft-reset function was always enabled, and the cheats were automatically off, but were enabled once a cheat was selected.

I've seen a lot of threads about problems with AKAIO 1.5.1, so rather than making a new thread for each problem/bug, wouldn't it be better to just make one thread for discussing and listing all of them?

LittleBigMods -> right - why many thread when one is enough?
but dont forget to contact the right people - the best site for writing your trouble with akaio is http://www.normmatt.com/forum/ THE HOME SITE of this cool system.

ordinary gbatemp users cant help you to "rewrite" akaio source code or so to "un-bug" it

I forgot the site. Thanks

But at least we can keep GBATemp from being flooded with simple AKAIO bug reports.

Options that are off by default don't work unless you turn them on?

Why is this topic still open? Couldn't find a single bug here, just random problems on your end caused by either a corrupt card or just plain idiocy.

Right now, it's doing more damage than good and it'll prolly mislead some people.

I corrected my post. Those aren't bugs, but changes that were made in AKAIO 1.5 and AKAIO 1.5.1.
One real bug that I found is listed in my first post: The AKAIO menu freezes if the DS is put into standby mode.

I think that this topic should be left open because I will list both bugs and changes, so that people who are new to 1.5 (like me) don't think that certain changes are bugs, and so that a new topic isn't made every time a new bug is found. I don't know why some of you guys need to get so mad about a simple mistake.

[*]Cheats don't work [Fix Found]
[*]Soft-Reset doesn't work [Fix Found]
aren't changes they have been defaulting to off since akaio 1.0

[*]Cheats don't work with some games (i.e. Pokémon SoulSilver) after being patched, even if the Game ID remain the same
is user error.

[*]The AKAIO menu freezes if the DS is put into standby mode
I cannot reproduce this.

 

[LittleBigMods]

Thanks for clarifying that... With every response in this topic, I just feel dumber...
BTW, you're a former AKAIO programmer?

[*]The AKAIO menu freezes if the DS is put into standby mode

Why do you even have to do that? Just turn it off, it's just from the menu anyway

 

[tehpatches]

You know what's cute about all of this. None of the bug fixes work. I have soft-reset and cheat usage enabled on system properties and the .nds files properties. The problem is when i go to load the game it just says loading and doesn't change. AKAIO is amazing

I mean this is a relatively old game i'm trying to pop cheats on so what's the problem? Should I get an older version of AKAIO?

When I said AKAIO menu, I also meant the ROMs list, settings, updater etc.

works fine here.
could be card corruption? back up your card, do a full format (not quick) and put all your files back on.

I get it now, it was just wifi plugin. When I upgraded it to the latest, it started to freeze when waking up during update.
From the ak menu, it doesn't freeze. the sounds just stops working but playable, the official fw has this too

• 
  
  akaio is for clean roms only. if your patched roms are failing to work that isn't akaio's fault. what are you patching for by the way?
  
  akaio does not freeze when i put my ds lite into standby mode. try formating your msd.
