Hacking I emailed G6 about the 16Gb homebrew problems

[jerbob92]

Hi i just emailed G6 about the problem this whas my mail:

Subject:G6 Real 16 Gb(2 GB)

Hi i have bought a G6 Real 16 Gb from www.divineo.de and i received it and it was complete and so on... i dumped some clean roms on it, it worked.

But then i tried some homebrew, NONE worked, with the old firmware and handly pacth them with dldi = NONE worked, with the new firmware and autopatching = NONE worked. Please can you help me? :S

The only one that worked was DrumMe, but that one doesn't have dldi!

When i get an response i will post it here and then if i repsonse i tell it here too

 

[4saken]

They usually don't respond

 

[jerbob92]

i hope they do because i love my

and now i want homebrew on my G6

 

[h8uthemost]

Yeah, thanks for emailing jerbob. But like 4saken mentioned, I wouldn't expect a response. But please if they happen to.

But...I'm sure they know about the problem already. Hopefully they fix it in 2.3.

Honestly they need to update the loader. They are some things that need fixing/update.

Even on 1GB Model the dldi is far from perfect. They also need to fix the softreset/cheats options on some games. And at last they need to fix the touch screen controls on Moonshell 1.71. This is perhaps the most important homebrew on DS and it isn't 100% compatible on G6DS Real!

As for the MediaPlayExtend it's fine for mp3's, images and documents but it's slow for DPG videos.

Generally, from my experience of messaging the M3 Team, I would recommend starting off with a paragraph of useless crap that has nothing to do with your email first. They tend to read on that way, and reply....

Or send an email to danny directly rather than the info@g6flash or whatever. I forgot his email, but I would ask him heaps of stuff before the G6R was released. Probably got annoyed of me

 

[jerbob92]

omg look what i got back :| it looks like an auto-email

Hi *******

We have released the DLDI driver for the G6DS real on 17-7-07 .
If you want to manually patch your homebrew. Please note that the latest firmware v2.2 does include a DLDI autopatcher. A mini guide for it can be found  here.

then i mailed back:

Thanks for your information .

then i mailed back:

why are you repeating and what are you testing?

the G6 is not very clear in mails

I just emailed Danny and he says he is going to test it.

 

[jerbob92]

omg, do you know what i think? AUTOMAIL because he says almost the same thing twice but it has nothing to do with my email i send and he send you almost the same :S

EDIT:

now i got an email back

It is working fine for G6 real 8G version .
So we will test it & fix the problem soon .

i send back:

k, but i think i have a other problem, NONE of the homebrew work :S
now he send back:

Yes, we know that .
A lot of homebrew that works on the 8Gbit version will not work on theÂ
16Gbit version
So we will fix it soon

now i send back:

QUOTE

maybe just bring out a new dldi driver that is made for the 16 g?

 

[HellShade]

Yes, we know that .
A lot of homebrew that works on the 8Gbit version will not work on theÂ
16Gbit version
So we will fix it soon

This means they are working on it, there was no need to reply to this. I'm sure the G6 team is fully capable of knowing what to do about their own product.

 

[ScottC2105]

Danny is a good lad, very kind person. I am sure all the issues will be fixed in due course.

I am waiting to take delivery of my G6 Real 16Gbit this morning

.

 

[Haruspex]

Lol jerbob92 don't abuse them like that. They will fix it sooner or later.

 

[PanzerWF]

So do these problems occur with the originial 8Gb G6 Real?

 

[ahtin]

I suggest you have to list out what homebrew doesnt work with the homebrew download link next time.

 

[jerbob92]

if NONE work i have to write all the homebrew down :|

 

[ahtin]

Oh.. all fail? my G6 is 8G, so I cant test 16G problem, if all is fail, I think they must fix it the next update..

 

[4saken]

Some works on mine ._.

3in1 tool is all I've tried though

 

[VenomSymbiote]

I don't know why, but my G6 Real which just came today is doing fine with Homebrew. I tried NesDS and SNEmulDS. Both work without a hitch. I also tried the iPod homebrew, but I found I don't like it as much as the installed Moonshell. (I was unable to get the iPod thing to play a simple folder... but moonshell it only took my like 5 minutes to figure out. >_>) I played a few NES games I haven't seen in years, was quite a nice nostalgia romp I must say. Playing TMNT: Turtles in Time without having to sit at the computer again after all these years was a pleasure too. The only thing that didn't work out of everything I tried was Transformers: Decepticons. However, the homebrews I tried worked so... perhaps it's only a few carts? I dunno. Incidently, is the tightness a problem? It fits rather snug in the DS. I'm hoping it wont cause other games to not fit anymore, but I doubt it's tight enough to do that.

 

[HellShade]

Transformers: Decepticons didn't work on my 8Gb either.

Looks like maybe the G6 team released a new hard version of the 16G? Maybe?
