Hacking DsOnei firmware writer on other cards

[cosmiccinema]

Question, I tried searching for this but no results.
Will the firmware flasher for the DSONEi work on other flash cards?

Thanks if anyone knows the answer!

Interesting question! I'll go try it on my archaic Games 'n Music cart.

I'm pretty sure that all the flasher does is just give power to the cart. I don't think it actually gives any access to the card from the computer. So I guess it just depends on whether people will actually support such a thing.

You might be right. However, the progress indicator on the flasher is going, so something's happening, at least...

As expected, nothing has happened

theres no point to try it becausse the DSONEi firmware flasher is just a power source for the cart thats all as my friend DA-Bomb1 said too

i guess if you had a m3i0 and lost the cable or some other card with upgradeable boot loader and happen to have a supercard dsonei writer it might flash it.
other than that i have no idea and it may not even work that way on other carts.

yeah even i wann know if it works on the m3 zero

It would probably be unlikely that the flasher would work with any other cart, it probably wouldn't work because each cartridge interacts with the microSD slot differently (hence the need for a different DLDI file for each flash cart).

Seeing as how all the card needs is just power to flash it, that wouldn't make any difference. But I guess it remains to be seen if they locked out any other power source other than the USB cable though. It might not work with other flashers.
