Gaming Restoring Save Issue - Pokemon

[Breakshot1]

Hi quick question for anyone,
what the problem is, is i have played through and finished the US version of pokemon,
now i have been trying to import the save into a UK Retail version so i can benefit from the pokewalker,
i followed the steps with the Savsender and it says it was sent to the card successfully, but i still the old save.

So i was thinking that the save created playing the US version must not be compatible with the UK retail card.

Would this be true or is there another issue.

Either that, or it´s because no homebrew up to today can dump or restore saves to a retail Pokemon HeartGold or SoulSilver without doing some soldering on the cart.
But thats just a speculation as you didn´t tell us wich Pokemon Game you´re talking about.

Yeh it is SoulSilver, i've just started the game from the start again

From what I've been reading here, HG/SS change the voltage on one of the pins of the PCB. There's a picture of someone soldering a wire from pin 4 to a chip's pin to have some sort of hardware be able to get the save from a retail cart. I know that doesn't sound helpful, but it is.
