I just purchased the EZ Flash Jr and a modded gameboy pocket, I'm using a sandisk 2gb card on firmware .4. it worked perfectly on my GBA ags 001. It worked for the first game I played on the Pocket then it got stuck in a loop and never loaded again after I stopped. is there a solution?

First of all, do not use SD card below 4GB and non-FAT32 format with EZ-FLAH Junior.

Then, does this EZ-FLASH Junior still work on your AGS-001?

Heavily modded GB Pocket is weak on power supply for the EZ-FLASH Junior, try to change the powerful battery.

The voltage is too low to operate the flash cart and backlit screen, but there is enough to boot the Game Boy. (Avoid rechargeable batteries; their chemistry only allows low voltage.)

You can use AAA batteries with a higher voltage.

Ni-MH / 1.2V batteries should be fine since they have lower inner resistance, and after a full recharge it's actually about 1.3V. If you really need high voltage I'd rather suggest 3.2V LiFePo4 batteries. Works on mine, no low battery red LED warning though since when it's running low, it'll rapidly drop from 3 volts to 2.2 volts or so.
