Hacking GBA Rom Hacks x EZ-Flash Omega Error?

[mitch200584]

I'm noticing that a number of popular gba hacks don't work on the EZ-Flash Omega. This includes colors hacks for all the Super Mario Advance Games, Doom I/II, & Donkey Country. Am the only one getting an "Error 4" message when trying to boot theses games up? Am I doing something wrong? They seem to work perfectly on emulators




EDIT: Lmao, now my entire Save Folder got corrupted from trying to run these games. Ugh.

Are you using the latest kernel? I've used a couple of palette restoration hacks and the translation patch for Oriental Blue on my Omega with zero issues. It's not enough to just copy the .bin file over to the root of your SD either, you've gotta hold down L on boot iirc.

Alright, here's my update. The hacked rom gave me an "Error 4" message right off the bat. Not good. It corrupted my save folder immediately. So I deleted my save folder, now the Hacked roms seem to work fine. However, it looks like hacked roms are more susceptible to corruption in general. Some of my GB hacked roms just flat out stopped working after a while. Now my save folder is corrupted again. This corruption thing is a real problem, yall..


Yes, I am waiting 5 seconds after saving. Some of these happen immediately when booting up a game.

Can you tell me your card firmware version and kernel version? FW？ K？

FW: 5. K:1.03 - Also, I'm using a Sandisk Ultra 16gb Micro SD Card. Originally, it was formatted in FAT32..now I'm using ExFat. Seeing less glitches, but then again, I'm waiting 10+ seconds after saves now.
