I followed the guide but it just will not enter vendor mode when selecting device intro or lite-on erase.
I have the key.bin extracted via my rgh through J runner extract files. The stock pcb and the unlocked one won't enter vendor mode. I tried for a couple hours now and nothing I try will work.

I've tried with my ck3i as well as a x360 usb pro.
Anyone got any ideas? I'm about ready to give up. I've flashed 2 phats and a couple slims before without any issues. This is my first 16D5S though. I think it's MXIC (the one that doesn't involve the kamakazi drilling hack).

Would really appreciate if someone could help out. I'm at a loss here.



Edit - Finally got it to work. Stupid mistake. Apparently you switch power off Before clicking intro then switch back on. I was power cycling after clicking intro the whole time

Thought the 16D5S needed a PCB swap. A tut would be nice.
Correct, more specifically is that you need an unlocked pcb drive and you need to RGH your console in order to get the DVD key, i already have the dvd key and all the equipment but i kinda confuse about how to do it.

  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    yall im torn... ive been hacking away at tales of phantasia GBA (the USA version) and have so many documents of reverse engineering i've done
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I just found out that the EU version is better in literally every way, better sound quality, better lighting, and there's even a patch someone made to make the text look nicer
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    Do I restart now using what i've learned on the EU version since it's a better overall experience? or do I continue with the US version since that is what ive been using, and if someone decides to play my hack, it would most likely be that version?
