Thats great, do you think it could reverse the joystick bug on an international edition?

I think in combination with a system.img from the international edition I think it will help, the problem is getting the /usr directory...

Could you share the International Vendor image please ?
Thanks.

Can't share it here man, it does contain roms

So some notes

1) the international edition does not like new games. Either replaced or added, it will not load it
2) It is definitely locked by filesize AND crc. If CRC's don't add up, its not gonna run
3) I'm now convinced the hack itself, is a hack to Dmenu itself to ignore all of the crc checks. Its a linux computer, FBA is gonna run, and Open Dingux being a elinux system as well explains why the emus work.

If that was the case, could you not just use the dmenu binary from the hacked version to bypass crc checks?

Yes and no, If we had access to a system.img from the int version, we probably could get away with just swapping the dmenu_ln and Minarcade files

Update on joystick bug...
Apparently if you put ear buds in the glitch goes away.but I haven't tried it for myself yet.

Trie d with 3 other ear buds. Works with one of them I Can confirm! Great! Now
another issue, removing it makes the ngm boot loops until power off.

No way.hope someone can fix this bug it's really p#@*ing me off lol

So with all of that said, I have a theory...

if someone wants to try this theory follow these steps.

Open your misc.img and back up the config.xml.
Replace the config.xml with the one in the rar I've included and save the image (I use Winimage)
burn the misc.img to the NGM don't erase the flash, but format data and cache.

Backout plan:
Take the config.xml you replaced, and delete the one I provided.
Reburn the images, the system and misc and erase the flash (vendor too if you aren't booting from USB)

Yep me to

--------------------- MERGED ---------------------------

Didn't work for me gutted

 

[shinrukus]

Well I gave it a go lol, technically it should've just killed your sound, but as I originally thought, whatever checks were modified to be ignored on dmenu, aren't applicable to the FAT_Misc partition

 

[hackotedelaplaqu]

Sorry if it sounds stupid but the jack thing makes me think about ground issues. What if we flash it again but with ear buds plugged during adfu?
I have no time to test this these evening, if someone wants to test it?

 

[Bubbypop]

Ok Ile av a bash
