Hacking Question regarding flashme and sleep mode?

[jkanzaki]

i flashed my dsl my self the other day i notice i couldn't use sleep mode. I heard i have to use a actual real ds game to enable sleep mode . am i correct? or i can just plug my passcard 3 instead.

another important question would be, if i plug a actual ds game inside to enable sleep mode, would it eat off some battery like using superkey or passcard 3?

thanks

yes you can plug either passcards or a real ds game, and yes you will use more battery. how much more is kind of up in the air @ the moment in the community....for me personally it uses significantly more battery (can extend gameplay for 1-2 more hours) so I do not use sleepmode personally (aka put in a real game or passcard).

Now here's a further question...my DSL has been flashme'd and sleep works fine with a commercial cart in, given. But I've noticed it won't sleep in GBA mode...is this standard even before flashing? I only ask because the only GBA games I have are roms, so I was never able to test it before flashing.

The DS just doesn't sleep in GBA mode, even with original GBA games, so you're not missing out there.

is it true that mml does not allow sleep mode

it does if you short pins 1 and 7 i think...
