Hacking M3DS Real, EZFlash 3-in-1, DS Lite...won't recognize slot-2 device

[Delirious17]

I can get NDS roms to play but for the life of me I just cannot get it to run GBA roms, that when I try to execute the roms it says no slot-2 GBA card found.

Am I missing something completely oblivious to me?

Is there anything else i can try i am either getting "slot2 expansion pack not found please redo from start." or DLDI compatible screen loading...and nothing happens.

Download GBAExpLoader I recommend v0.57.. search on downloads section

 

[Delirious17]

Tried that already...won't recognize the cartridge still.

 

[Schizoanalysis]

are the cartridge contacts clean?

EDIT: For the 3in1 I mean...

Yes I've used 91% rubbing alcohol with a q-tip and dried it all thoroughly...no luck

I remember that some conflict happened between M3 and the creator of GBAExpLoader. So M3 is no longer compatible with GBAExpLoader. Only way to play GBA games is to use the ram expansion that comes with the M3 Perfect Bundle.

you can patch it to add support

I can confirm the latest ver works
as well as the gba cart dumper by rodoulph with the patch

I'm sorry what did you say? I'm a total newb when it comes to this...patch what? gba cart dumper with what patch?? I'm lost!

Please clarify

 

[Joe88]

the latest ver of GBA ExpLoader will work with the m3 real with a patch
without the patch it will say unsupported hardware or whatever

Rodoulph removed support from M3 products after he received a cease and desist letter from the M3 team after he tried to make a fully functioning DLID ver of M3 Sakura so other carts can use it

THANK YOU ALL SO VERY MUCH YOU HAVE A GREAT COMMUNITY OF PEOPLE HERE THANK YOU ALL AGAIN!

Also can you bring up any type of menu/pause function when playing a GBA game? Also is there some more documentation/manual for what I'm using so I know more of how to use it?

Documentation maybe on the M3DS Real and moreover using GBA Exploader .58b?
