for those of you with freezing problems, can you test this out with a hex editor
can you write 0xFFFF to 0x06E & 0x06F

if not try 0x0000 in 0x6E & 0x6F
this is ROM Timeout field

see if this helps avoid freezing
*don't forget to backup your file

I don't have any problems with freezing, but my HEX skills aren't good enough to understand how to do the things you tell in your post. Could you either explain or provide us with an .ips patch here?

This game has worked flawlessly with my SuperCard Lite and a 1GB Kingston MicroSD (Made in Japan) I bought from newegg a while back. From all the posts in this thread it seems that Kingston's are your best bet.

Castlevania freezes on my R4 with sandisk microsd from time to time. The 1gb kingston japan isn't meant to have any problems. When you send the the kingston you don't know if your going to get one made in Japan or Taiwan. The ones made in Taiwan freeze the game as the read speed is slower.

I'm using M3 DS Simply with Kingston 1GB - Made In Japan (FAT32, 64k). After about 8 hours of game time, I have only had 1 crash at a Warp point. I'd used that warp point many times before, so I think it is just luck of the draw.

Everybody keeps forgetting that the Kingston JP cards are just OEM'd Toshibas. If you want to be absolutely certain that it won't crash POR, get a Toshiba.

I have a question that is around PoR and the flashcartness.

Does anyone know why exactly, PoR offers the most problems out of any DS rom?
