Hacking EZF4 Problems

[TLSpartan]

I think I may be doing this wrong. I have a EZF4 Lite Deluxe right. I grabbed the ezfla_up from dirties review. I hold down R(using the SC-DS's superkey function). when it boots up and I am holding R it brings up this message "Can't File ezfla_up.bin Please Power off and Restart". I have no idea what I am doing wrong. Can somebody please help me

 

[TLSpartan]

Sorry for the bump. But can anybody help me

It must be on the root of your card, and you must make sure it doesn't have a double-extension (if extensions are hidden it might look like "ezfla_up.bin" but in reality be "ezfla_up.bin.bin"
It should be named correctly already within the zip file you're using.
Your card should also be formatted using FAT16 if it isn't already.

I must also mention that the link in my review is out of date - grab the latest client and loader from our download center and check out the official updates thread for anything new.

What Dirtie said although I will also point out that the GBA loader works fine for updating.

Still nothing. Do you think something is wrong with the card

If you try booting normally (without holding R) does the loader boot up and show the contents of your card?

Like FAST mentioned, also try holding down R while booting into GBA mode.

Yes it shows the contents. But when i try and view the contents it brings up an error. When i try FAST6191's method it doesnt do anything

What do you mean by trying to "view" the contents? You mean trying to run a game? Or trying the run the update file? Or the list of files doesn't even appear in the first place?

I fixed the problem. It was formatted as FAT32 not FAT. thanks Dirtie and FAST6191 for all your help

If I was a gloater I'd say "told you so", but since I'm not: you're welcome

Next time somebody asks for a slot-2 solution I am going to suggest the EZF4 Lite Deluxe because it works so good
