I have flashed with ppflash fw.bin recovery code in my bricked ds.
I have written flashme.nds.gba in my supercard cf card having firmware 1.52. When I press A+B+select+start and power button nothing happens. Then I press A and supercard screen appears but cant see any program to flash.Any help will be greatly appreciated

hi rename the flashme.nds.gba to flashme.nds.

[michael00000001]

thanks for the advice. I will try it. By the way do you know if fw.bin included in ppflash utility is the fail-recovery code for ds? is only 768 bytes.

I belive so... no real idea. I helped out someone recently who turned off mid flashme and it wasn't any use... you may need a full firmware dump...

[michael00000001]

the same thing happened to me. Turned off by mistake in midlle of flashme. Did the other man succeeded in unbricking ds and if yes what was the procedure?

As in you can't load homebrew over wifi? or?

[michael00000001]

acts like there is no wifi in machine.green light blinks but cant even enter picturechat.Is it a software error or something went wrong during opening nintendo case?

You'll have to flashme all over again. I totally bricked my DS and I got everything back again.

The thing I did was, I got an original firmware from someone (the whole 256 KB's) and uploaded it using ppflash, then I flashme'd it with an Flash Advance card. WiFi, Pictochat all was working again.
