Yeah just ordered another one. For the future, do you recommend just using the kernel file to run the game? Without flashing the firmware?
The cards are on FAT format ( not fat 32) . Yes I have test with 3 différents card . That is on real Gameboy Advance ( the first not sp)What format is the sdcard? Have you try with another card? And also are you on a DS?
A lot of people seem to be having issues with flashing the firmware lately, so maybe avoid this until I can figure out what's going on, or unless you have another way to unbrick it. The downside is, you can't use SDHC...Yeah just ordered another one. For the future, do you recommend just using the kernel file to run the game? Without flashing the firmware?
Ufff super nice thanks to the master metroidmaniac the God pf super cardHello Metroid,
I'd like to report that SDHC cards(128 GB - SanDisk brand) work on the super card SD with your custom firmware.
So far, it works like a charm. The issues mentioned previously might be related to the sdcard itself. Based on my experience, flashcarts behave differently depending on the brand of the sdcard. Either that or the file is corrupted.
Here's the hash checksum of 0.5.2's kernel.gba straight from your github:
- MD5: 1351671B7C7FE79D2E030E1225130EA7
- SHA256: 39D4B88A2483247C43C5D2BA3D5FA6C8E9CEB1BB934FFD17EC4E230B8EB3DE06
- CRC32: 49628D0E

Hello i have a question metroid maniac. If i want to backup or dump my SC firmware, content, etc. How can i perform that? I would like to make a full bakup in cause of something thanksA lot of people seem to be having issues with flashing the firmware lately, so maybe avoid this until I can figure out what's going on, or unless you have another way to unbrick it.

Do you think mine is bricked ? but i dont know what i can do .The cards are on FAT format ( not fat 32) . Yes I have test with 3 différents card . That is on real Gameboy Advance ( the first not sp)
Thanks for the info but thats not what im trying to say. What im mean with all this is if i can dump something from official stock fimwere. Extraction or something similar metroid mariac mentioned before like a bakup of my own file i case i damage the flash or something thanksI don't think that's part of the scope of the homebrew project itself...
Typically, just copying the sdcard/TF files to another directory/storage medium is in itself a backup already since the firmware's kernel is designed to be plug-n-play.
You can then just copy that onto another sdcard that's using a FAT32 filesystem.
- As long as the directory "scfw" is found in the root directory of the card and the kernel.gba file is found inside it, the flashcart will always boot.
This is what my sdcard looks like in Windows vs what's shown on my gamebox once inside the flashcart.

Notice that I removed the firmware file after flashing it on the cart. You only need to flash it once.
