EZ Flash Omega + Analogue Pocket firmware

[astrodraco]

Just to add on to the methods above, possibly from another comment on the forums, but the sure-fire way for me to get it to work was:

Play normal regular GBA game
Put Pocket in sleep mode
Take GBA game out
Put in Omega DE
Wake up Pocket
Hit Play Cartridge

Kevtris got in an Omega DE today. Hopefully things will be fixed soon.

Anybody managed to avoid the Omega (none DE) nag to update from v7 to v9? Every game works fine, but I still have to dismiss this message whenever I boot up. Cart is updated to v9.

This won't get fixed likely without an update from either EZflash or Analogue.

You can "downgrade" your kernel to v7 using Internet Web Archive and going back to whenever it was the current firmware. It would ultimately remove the nag but then also remove the features or improvements added in v8 and v9.

I've attached it below, but I got it from here if you wanna snag it yourself: https://web.archive.org/web/20200701162427/http://www.ezflash.cn/product/omega/

Thanks for this!

In addition.... if anyone wants to avoid the v7 / v9 nag using the popular Simple theme, this firmware version from late 2020 works great

My Omega DE works fine but Mode B doesn't work at all.

Yeah same boat, my DE works like a charm. My Everdrive works just fine too, so I am not sure why that works for some people but not for others.

My Omega DE that stopped working after a couple weeks started working again after Pocket update 1.0B!

So strange that so many people are having suck different experiences with the same flash cart.

This is so disappointing I hope they make a fix for this soon

I have both Omega and DE. The DE edition did not work on the previous Pocket FWs however never had problems with the Omega. I did not want to update just in case but yesterday I had upgraded my Pocket and .... surprise! Both Omega and DE work like a treat!
