This was really interesting. Where did the data come from?
I did do some basic tests in one of the threads, and the EZTeam themselves did some others at cart level. Not sure what that spreadsheet shot in an earlier post was from.
https://gbatemp.net/threads/ezflash...n-house-at-gbatemp.500357/page-4#post-7905928 for mine, was an earlier kernel and later ones did quite a bit better.
Seems we are replying to an old post but yeah it seems mods + EZ Omega is a dubious thing. In and of themselves the batteries should be able to do it just fine*, the trouble I imagine comes in whatever rails/points the mods tap for power also eventually power the cart itself and the combined current draw causes the problems. I don't think/makes no sense that it is noise or cross talk, and likewise overheating** is a new one (most FPGAs run somewhat hot). Solutions (assuming you don't want to lose the mods or get another cart) are
1) Find alternative points for the power aspects of the mods, maybe including tapping the battery (or battery after the switch) itself with appropriate regulation to make a new rail if no internal rail is suitable.
2) Boost the power going to the cartridge slot, or indeed whole rail that everything taps. This might be a one or two wire affair (cart power and save power if different) but better ones might swap out existing regulation circuitry for something more powerful (around the time of the GBA LVDO regulators were far less of a thing
3) Reduce the power requirements of the cartridge itself, though not sure that is a thing you can realistically do in this instance (it is running a nice FPGA after all).
*though it is noted the rechargeable batteries putting out 1.2V rather than the glorious 1.5V of zinc carbon and other throw away when you are done efforts causes grief here so would ask the earlier poster if that is the case for the failed boot.
**if the mods somehow end up back feeding the rails with greater voltages then I could see some overheating, and most of the mods are not close enough to the GBA slot that even if they are heat generators they would do all that much.
