Hacking Soft-reset

[skystealer]

Can i change the combination to soft reset my Acekard2i? I cant use my L button because it doesnt work, so I cant soft reset it, plus hitting the Power button returning to the DSi Menu does kill a few of battery life.

Unfortunately, no

I think the SR keys are hardcoded into the firmware.

It's the same as turning on/off a lightbulb.

There's a myth that leaving a lightbulb on is more energy efficient than turning it on/off through out the day.
While it's true that when you turn on the light, there is a slight surge and increase in energy consumption, this increase is so small that the difference is negligible... to the point that you'd need to be turning on/off the light every 5 seconds for there to be a difference.


To relate this to the DS/DSi, soft reset probably will use energy... but the amount would be so small I cannot see it making a difference.
