If you edit or patch a game in any way, even with an ARM7 patch, you end up changing the data within the game which causes the games headers to change and the CRC checksum of the game data to change. The checksum is used at the last 8 digits of the game id. So if you patch a game, you get a different Game ID which you need to update the cheat file with to have cheats appear for that game.

sorry to revive this but i checked the ID and it still doesn't work... it worked with the same ID before but when i changed the cheat file, again it stopped working though i have a usrcheat and cheat file both having different ID's so no conflicts since the usrcheat has the correct ID but the cheat.dat doesn't
Any reason why this is happening
Also checked the encryption status and usrcheat is not encrypted but cheat is so it's correct

Use either a cheat.dat or a usercheat.dat and not both. Using both files can cause everal problems, including the one you just mentioned.
