Hacking EZflash 5...dead?

[p5100pc3]

Hey guys, I just bought M3 simply and ezFlash V. The M3 works great, no issues. ezflash is such a hassle though. I've updated the kernel, i have the shell folder in the root, updated the save list and created a separate folder for my roms.

I tried a clean dump, but when I get to the selection screen where I can select my games, the rom icon looks corrupted. So I just thought it was probably caused by the clean dump, so I tried starting it up, but got white screen.

I tried using the hybrid tool, same deal. I even tried fooling around with the speed settings of the card (Sandisk 1gig)

I usually like to figure things out myself, but I've spent almost a whole day trying to figure this out I've gotten no where!

Please help!

Please help!

That should be your problem, the roms must go in the root of the micro sd.

Have you tried asking at the EZ unofficial forum. You might have a bad EZ V. Did you adjust the right speed setting for your micro sd? May be this can help you: http://ezflash.sosuke.com/wiki/index.php?title=EZFlash_V

I've been running back and forth between this site, official ez flash site, the unoffical site and even the wiki site. The most I can see is the graphical glitch, but roms loading fine. i'm getting white screens.

Yeah, i've adjusted the speed...still same result.

I think you got a bad EZ V, the only thing I can suggest is to try a different micro sd( if you have another one).

I guess for the now that's my only choice. Any suggestions?

I use a Japanese kingston micro sd and I never had a problem with it. It would be best to get one of those for your EZ V.

I hate beating a dead horse, but...

I purchased the japanese kingston micro card, to see if it'll work on my ezv. That didn't work, so I'm just taking it as, "I was sent a faulty ezv" (which is weird, cuz the card works fine, it's jus the roms that dont work).

So i went to reformat the card and jus throw my sandisk back into my M3 Simply....now that one doesnt work. I even tried using the kingston on it too. Still not working.

Now I know my micro cards are working fine, cuz I tried them both on my m3 lite, and they work great.

so are both cards faulty? OR am i jus screwing something up*edit

So you're saying that your M3 simply is not working anymore? Wow, I think you just had bad luck.

LOL, No kidding! The M3 was working great the same night I started this thread, but I had to reformat the card in order to test it out on my EZV.

I've tried reformatting the cards in FAT and FAT32...I have no idea what i'm doing wrong.

Could it be the card reader that you're using that's causing this problem?

I thought about that too...I was using the M3 micro reader. Then I thought, maybe it was the reader and started using the transflash adapters for the micro cards....still nothing!

I think your best bet is to return them.
