Stay on topic people.

This is why I like my Cyclo so much. Playing now. Still by next week even the DSTT will be playing these games.

Stay on topic people.

In other news, CycloDS users are past the 5th gym and happily playing the game.

Gee what an awesome topic. Anything the CycloDS users would like to say about their adventures in Johto?

What We Think We Know
last update: 11:38 PM CST March 14

OMG WHEN WILL THE WORKING PATCH BE OUT?
As soon as the people working on it stop being spammed and can concentrate for long enough to find one.

RARELY CRASHING DOES NOT MEAN WORKING PERFECTLY.
THOSE "RANDOM" CRASHES TYPICALLY FOLLOW THE 24 EVENT PATTERN.

CURRENTLY WORKING:
(These do have occassional freezes.)

Acekards work most of the time.
CycloDS.
Latest version of Desmume can play the game.
No$GBA has a fix which makes the game playable.

CODETHE PROBLEM:

- We do not know specifically how this AP works.
- The Open on No$Zoomer or simply press F12.
6. Open your game again. RESET function won't work, as you will get a rom image crash.
7. Choose your game just like you would do it on a real DS.

*For no$gba to recognize a save, the save must be in the "BATTERY" folder.[/code]

PEOPLE WORKING ON A FIX:

M3 Team
Xenophobia
Many Forums
...and countless others.

Another great recap post.

Something wrong? Something new? PM Olly to add it.

past the 5th gym! TC covers themselves with glory all the other card teams are green with envy.

Why the F*** are you guys fighting over a stupid firmware? This is a CYCLODS FIRMWARE so rest of the flashcart users GTFO if your going to complain about how your flashcart team hasn't sent out a newer firmware or a patch.

Great news. Gotta wait until I get home tonight to test it. Now I'd just like to see a new save dumper for HG/SS. Got pretty far in on my retail cart yesterday and would like to put it on my Cyclo hehe.

R4DS doesn't have a firmware team so we got nowhere to go

There are teams working on it, though, like the R4 Ultra team.

 

[Hidoshi]

Shouldn't this post be stickied or added somewhere else as 'CONFIRMED WORKING' so that cycloDS users know that it works?
I wonder if my r4isdhc will ever update. On their website they say that they update WEEKLY, but the last update was 2 months ago xD

THINGS THAT DO NOT WORK:

- Asking if there is a patch yet.
- Spamming card manufacturers. They know already.
- Buying the game (Nintendo has won if you do).
- Giving up.

I lol'd at these

I like the complaining. I've been saying TC was the best for a long time but people don't want to listen. Well it's the Cyclo users that are playing HG SS today.

Well that's your problem then isn't it? Nobody here owes you anything, if you want to play the game so bad, go out and buy it.

perefect post olly!

(anyway, good to know that xenophobia is working on it... maybe (and i say MAYBE) it can work on every flashcard within 3 days)

by the way... did cyclo team said anything related with how they have "fixed" the AP?

 

[TheRadical]

Just wait for the other flashcarts, if there are teams working on it, then all you gotta do is be patient. Good for CycloDS, maybe that'll give a hint to how to fix the issue to the other teams.

 

[eumemo]

I wonder if a patch for the rom will be released, or just new firmware for each flashcard.

 

[Delta517]

I wonder if a patch for the rom will be released, or just new firmware for each flashcard.

I hope they make both

of course they did not. They make a product that is competing with other card makers for profit. The longer theirs works the more people that will see it in forums such as these and hopefully buy their product.

 

[czulki]

Yeah wait for teams to update firmware for their flashcarts.
