Curious if I found a solution or at least a viable workaround. So when I replace SWAVS in SWAR files and hit "save SDAT" and then "save ROM" the original SWAV will still play, and when I would try to repack the SWARs myself it would break the whole SDAT file. But I saw the offset locations for the files I want to extract and import in Tinke and I was wondering if I could manually modify it in HxD. Images below, for reference in Tinke and HxD:

I'm trying to swap some of the SWAV files around - for example, extract the SWAVs in SWAR_473 to SWAR_490. The offset for SWAR_473 is 0x4BD050. So based on that example, if I were to go to 0x4BD050 in HxD, copy the data and do CTRL-B to paste into the offset for SWAR_490, would that data for the sound effectively be copied over for SWAR_473 and replace the original sound files that were there?

    Eventhough the New 3DS XL is more powerful, I still feel like the DS Lite was a more polished system. It's a real shame that it never got an XL variant keeping the GBA slot. You'd have to go on AliExpress and buy an ML shell to give a DS phat the unofficial "DS Lite" treatment, and that's the best we'll ever get I'm afraid.

    The phat model had amazingly loud speakers tho.

    @Jayro, I don't see whats so special about the DS ML, its just a DS lite in a phat shell. At least the phat model had louder speakers, whereas the lite has a much better screen.

    They probably said "Hey, why not we combine the two together and make a 'new' DS to sell".

    It's a DS Lite in a slightly bigger DS Lite shell.

    It's not a Nintendo / iQue official product, it's a 3rd party custom.

    Nothing special about it other than it's more comfortable than the Lite
