Very sorry if this is the wrong place to ask but hopefully someone can help. How long would you need to charge an unmodded V1 Erista to get it to start up again. I have been charging mine overnight but it still won't start. I am assuming it is stuck in rcm and I haven't used it for a while.
Hey I think I remember you! Pretty sure my friend sold you a modded lite a while ago. As for the Erista, if you haven't used it in a while it will take a few hours to charge. Some people say to leave it on for 24 hours but in my experience that isn't necessary, just one or two should be sufficient. Make sure you're not charging it in the dock and some people say you need to use an official Nintendo charger although I'm not sure that's the case.

Thanks for your reply. Someone did instal the sx-lite for me and it is working great. I finally got my v1 working but I had to leave it on charge for two or three days before it would start.

I think you would be very lucky to find one at the moment. Then, even if you are lucky, you will probably need to find someone to fit it for you which will be even harder.

These things are not being made anymore and if you find one for sale, expect it to be sold for a crazy amount of money...

I have 6 of them sitting on my desk, I ordered 20 of them and fitted 14 of them in tablet only switches and sold them on Facebook market place. Ran out of switch tablets so they have just been sitting there.

Instead of selling the SX core and lite modchips, why hasn't someone (who owns them and is experienced with micro-electronics) released the schematics of these chips? This would allow cloners outside of China to start producing Atmosphere-compatible chips. If Chinese cloners are our only source then the Mariko is a dead-end as long as eBay and Aliexpress are heavily monitored by Nintendo.

But if anyone is selling SX core chips, please PM me. Keen to own a few that I can prod over and see if they are reproducible (at least just the hardware)

  • 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?
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    @TwoSpikedHands, I'll preface this with the fact that I know nothing about the game, but, I think it depends on what your goals are. Are you trying to make a definitive version of the game? You may want to refocus your efforts on the EU version then. Or, are you trying to make a better US version? In which case, the only way to make a better US version is to keep on plugging away at that one ;)
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    I'm not familiar with the technicalities of the differences between the two versions, but I'm wondering if at least some of those differences are things that you could port over to the US version in your patch without having to include copyrighted assets from the EU version
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    @Sicklyboy I am wanting to fully change the game and bend it to my will lol. I would like to eventually have the ability to add more characters, enemies, even have a completely different story if i wanted. I already have the ability to change the tilemaps in the US version, so I can basically make my own map and warp to it in game - so I'm pretty far into it!
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I really would like to make a hack that I would enjoy playing, and maybe other people would too. swapping to the EU version would also mean my US friends could not legally play it
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I am definitely considering porting over some of the EU features without using the actual ROM itself, tbh that would probably be the best way to go about it... but i'm sad that the voice acting is so.... not good on the US version. May not be a way around that though
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I appreciate the insight!
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @TwoSpikedHands just switch, all the knowledge you learned still applies and most of the code and assets should be the same anyway
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    and realistically they wouldn't

    be able to play it legally anyway since they need a ROM and they probably don't have the means to dump it themselves
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    why the shit does the shitbox randomly insert newlines in my messages
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It does that when I edit a post.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It inserts a newline in a random spot.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    never had that i don't think
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    do y'all think having an sd card that has a write speed of 700kb/s is a bad idea?
    trying to restore emunand rn but it's taking ages... (also when I finished the first time hekate decided to delete all my fucking files :wacko:)
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @Karma177 that sd card is 100% faulty so yes, its a bad idea
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    even the slowest non-sdhc sd cards are a few MB/s
