EZ4 Kernel 2.03 Soft reset and sleep improvements

EZFlash_logo.png

The EZTeam have released a couple of new kernels since last news post. The move away from a Windows based patching solution to an GBA side onboard one initially saw soft reset and sleep functionality take a hit. 2.02 brought them back and today's 2.03 improved it for a selection of games.

EZ4 Kernel 2.02 changelog said:
We added GLOBAL SOFTRESET AND SLEEP(GSS) patch and customized hotkey configuration file.

default softreset key combination is “L + UP + B”, default sleep key combination is “L + R + START”, default wake up key combination is “START + SELECT”.

Some games can not apply the GSS patch properly, you can use “L+B” to launch them without GSS patch.

If you want to set your own hotkey combination, there is a file named “KEYSET.CFG” in the EZ4Kernel 2.02 package. please check it out. This file must placed in the root of SD card.

We also made a quick tutorial at here
