Alright, I was checking up on a way to find any troubleshooters for your ds invovling firmware. Instead I came across a youtube video that was made by LeKordes. Basically it shows how you can chcek the firmware on your ds through a series of simple instructions, and finding out the fimrware is like looking at a resistor color code chart, easy
. This was taken straight from Lekordes' the Wiki site:
http://wiki.pocketheaven.com/DS_FirmwareDifferent firmware versions have different behaviors if a DS Game Card or Game Boy Advance cartridge is ejected during Pictochat [1]. To determine your DS firmware version, follow these steps:
No.1 Way:
Insert an authentic Nintendo DS Game Card into SLOT-1, or a Game Boy Advance cart into SLOT-2, of your Nintendo DS.
Turn on DS (hold Select+Start if you have autostart enabled in the settings).
Enter Pictochat.
Enter any chat room.
Eject the Game Card or GBA Cart from the DS.
No.2 Way(non working if firmware is v.1):
Turn on DS (hold Select+Start if you have autostart enabled in the settings).
Enter Pictochat.
Enter any chat room.
Close Nintendo DS and observe color of the screen.
Result:
v1: Pictochat hangs
v2: two grayish blue screens
v3: two dark green screens
v4: two golden yellow screens
v5: two magenta screens (DS lite units have this)
v6: two dark blue screens (un-confirmed new DSes have this)
iQue: two dark green screens
As FlashMe is based on the v3 firmware, FlashMe will behave like v3 (two dark green screens).
In simpler terms, just have a card inside, turn on ur ds, goto pictochat, and remove the game card out, depending on the color, you will have one of these versions. Of course I will try to do some research on this to see the significance of this in terms of using any flash carts or showing any slight differences between each other. By the way, just for
s and giggles, post your color here and be proud to have it
. (If an admin can sticky this, that'd would be awesome
(BTW: Mine is purple
)
Edit- Changed the info source to wiki since it's more detailed and fixes the whole flash,dark green, ique crap. Credit goes to the site, not me, cept for finding it and posting it here :P
