Homebrew NDS Cart Swapping patch?

[Roomsaver]

It acts slightly different on my o3DS but, yes. I can eject the cart, modify the files, put the cart back in, and it still functions.

99% of all 3DS and n3DS consoles power off the slot if you eject the cart and it can't be powered back on when in NTR/TWL mode. (under normal circumstances)

This. I made this thread to discuss patching TWL firm so that it either never powers off the slot, or periodically forces the slot back on.

Slot powering off is low level hardware behavior. It can't be controlled via software. Slot power on occurs during boot2/devlauncher load. That could in theory be do able with a modified TWL_FIRM.

If someone had say an Action Replay DSI or something like it, couldn't this be used to swap out carts in CTR?

Something like that could work if the hardware never detects the cart being removed. Actually a pass-me might work.
