The ARM7 from AA:ME does NOT work it may help the people a little who are able to load the game (decreases game freezes) but also disables wifi, as for those who cant get passed the name screen it has no effect

According to Normmatt the US Pokemon roms have the same AP protection as the previously released Korean version, which is an updated version of the protection on the Japanese versions.

So if there are any fixes for the Korean versions, perhaps try them?

I read in another thread that they still have problems with the korean version... Let's enjoy a long wait -.-

Isn't it possible to dump the text .xml and import it to the Japanese version for a temporary fix?

I don't the the Korean version has a patch lol. Nobody would bother patching the Korean version since the US version would be out a month later.

Here we have it, the most off the wall comment during the whole HG/SS discussion.

Created a new game for a ROM patched with the ARM7 of AA. It let me in the game, let me play, but when I saved and loaded, it froze. If the new Acekard FW truly patches it, then why doesn't Cyclo? The CycloDS had fixes for the Korean version of the game, or that's at least what it says the updates did in the latest stable release. Eitherway, why hasn't anyone picked at the new release of the Acekard FW to see what they did? This could really be helpful in making a patch.

They had problems with the korean version, but no one bothered to try to crack it since almost no one would use it, but the US version will probably be fixed in a couple of hours, since its the US version

After getting the 3rd badge, the freezing gets a lot worse
Yes, we know. Do this to make it a lot more bearable.

QUOTEFor those of you that just is willing to endure the freezing pre-Whitney (Yes, freezing will probably still occur, but probably once every 10 minutes. I was able to play through 7 hours this way. as long as it isnt as bad as freezing every 2 screens after Whitney)
I finally found a way:



Even if you just beat her and saved, thats alright. Go next door to get Squirtbottle or whatever the key item is.
Now, go to http://gbatemp.net/index.php?showtopic=183116
and download the portable pokesav (thanks, Chase-san)
You're supposed to put it on your DS and use the pokesav on your ND.
Why this pokesav instead of the bigger one?
Because this one allows you do edit the badges.

So what I did was ticked off the 3rd badge. Went back into the game, walk around tons, no freeze. Went back into the gym to talk to Whitney, hoping the game set it so that it was before your battle with her. Turns out it's still post battle, where she crys but haven't given you the 3rd badge yet. Once you talk to her, she'll give you the TM and 3rd Badge. Now I walked around with this and again, it froze every 3 screens.

So back to the portable pokesav and took out the 3rd badge. Opened my game up, walked in and out of the pokecenter 20 times, and took on a few trainers at the next route, and no freezing yet. I'm sure the freezing will come along, but as of now, I can continue my adventures again.

Once a patch for the game is made, then I'll go back to pick up the 3rd badge. As of now, it doesn't matter anyways. The badge doesn't enable any HM's, and I already got Squirtbottle.
Cheers, i had my day set free to play this game whole day, but getting stuck at Goldenrod pissed me off... this was all I can think of.

I have an idea. Maybe, if someone patch the JAP SS and HG with the anti-freeze patch, extract the arm7 of the JAP rom, and then, put it in the SS and HG USA, maybe and ONLY maybe it works...

Almost all carts have issues with freezing in the game, that list is complete crap. I've seen it on several sites, but kids with issues refuse to listen to people about it being crap, go figure. Eitherway, that list is pointless and doesn't really have a reason to be here o.O

This idea has already been thought of many times, but it didn't work. The US version has a completely different AP, you see. D:

It can't be the damn tamagotchi pokewalker messing up emulation, can it?

That was posted just after it got released, and it doesn't account for the Anti Piracy.

Yeah, US and Korean have the same AP, Jap has a whole different one

Just a correction:
M3DS Real with Touchpod 4.7hX: You can save, but there is freezing after a certain amount of events.
