Thanks for your review mercluke. Too bad that youtube video sound is so weird.

Can i ask you something ?

I'm very interresting in good quality picture of the EZ5i PCB. I like to know what are difference between all ez5 version.

Can you do some more pictures ?

As i can see the ez team no longer use the Actel componant. I'm not sure about the new one because it's not so visible on your blog pictures, but i think it's the xilinx spartan 3 now.
Also i'm happy to see that the team has soldered again the save memory componant for the clean mode.

the two ics on the ez flash vi are:
"xilinx spartan xc350a" (same size and shape as actel chip on cyclo)
and a smaller, more rectangular chip with no brand name (just serial number)

I suppose it's a Renesas M6MGB/T331S8AKT. Already used in older product. The M6MGB/T331S8AKT is a Stacked micro Multi Chip Package (S- mMCP) that contents 32M-bit Flash memory and 8M-bit Static RAM.
The bootloader/bootstrap is in the flash memory part and can be fully upgraded. The SRAM part is used by the hybrid mode.

In the over side of the PCB i suppose it's a serial flash memory, probably a ST M25PE40. It's here that saves are stored when clean mode is enabled.
The come back of this memory let me think it's a crucial component to bypass DSi protection.

Old post but in case someone google it, this problem is tied to the skin's name lenght.
Must be 8+3 max or you get this error. example : skinname.dat

    @Xdqwerty No you heard wrong, and don't believe till you experience yourself. Fallout 4 is one of my favorite games of all time. Yes it had issues early on, esp with older hardware like the xbox1, but it is awesome, esp now being 4k on Series S/X or PS5

  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @BigOnYa, Then i think people were talking about fallout 76
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    that one was buggy too
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Yea you right there, fallout 76 was a letdown, but it not that bad now, they have fixed slot of issues they had at launch. Biggest issue with Fallout 76 is its a pay to advance further type of game, which sucks
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @BigOnYa, I may probably download fallout 3 or new vegas on my ps3
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    cuz I didnt like fallout 1 that much
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    New Vegas is awesome, F3 was ok too.
