Hacking Can't use cheats on EZ Flash Omega.

[MADNESS_NH97]

Even though I have installed everything needed(I even tried 2 different sets of .cht file folders & named the roms correctly) and "checked" on every option needed, I'm unable to access the cheat menu by pressing L + R + Start. The only options I get are Reset, Save & Load.

What do I have to do, in order to use cheats, considering I should have everything that would make it possible.

I don't have any problems with playing & saving games (like the Pokemon Games for example) or even using downloaded savestates for other games.

Pictures/video of what you're doing? Btw, there's a large cheat collection included from ezflash.cn, so make sure you're following that structure/naming if it's not seeing cheats otherwise.

I've used the cheat collection from them and followed all of their steps, they've shown on their page, but it doesn't work.

I don't have any other problems with playing roms for different systems, saving or using the Reset, Save & Load features, even though I've toggled on the cheat option & have the cheat collection & GameID2cht.bin on my MicroSD, inside the CHEAT folder.

You're using the latest firmware/kernel, right? That's the only other thing I can think of.

Yes, I did that before I even tried out to use cheats & I even tried reformating my MicroSD & reinstallning everything, but that didn't fix my problem.

The only other thing I can think of is maybe make a video of exactly what you're doing? That'd be good for others to reproduce the problem. If you do, make sure you include a quick shot of the back of the unit for the version + region, as there were other problems with EUR AGS-101 units. I doubt that it's unit related, but the more information the better.

Sorry I can't be of any help.

I doubt there's anything worth filming.

Here's how I set up the files/folders within my microSD. Did I do something wrong? Does it even play a role how I set them up?

My CHEAT folder:

I toggled on Reset, Saves & Cheats. But when pressing L, R & Start, the only options I get are Reset, Save & Load.

And I'm using a european Nintendo DS Lite(USG-001), is it possible that the cheats don't work on the DS? Again, I don't have any other problems with playing games(I tested SGB, GBA & NES files) or saving them or even using rom hacks, save states etc. etc.

Stupid question, but you're enabling cheats (last menu item) on game startup, right?

Yes. Here's a picture of my settings.

No, I mean when you start a game before you select "Boot with Addons" you have to go the bottom where "Cheats" is and select your cheats. In game you can only "Cheats On" and "Cheats Off" in menu to all the cheats you selected at the beginning.

I actually didn't get the option before. But now I removed & recopied the cheats folder onto my SD card and it's there all of a sudden. Before I created a folder myself for the files, but I copied the entire folder from the zip file instead now. Maybe that was the issue.
