Uninstalling FlashMe v8a

SuperGeek · May 31, 2007, 01:06:29 PM

I flashed my DS Lite version with FlashMe version 8a. I was wondering, to unflash do I have to use the UnFlashMeLite or can i use unflashme.nds? because it says on wikipedia

QuoteAnother risk is when Flashme V7 was installed on a DS Lite, and when NoFlashme is used (Which deinstalls FlashMe) The DSlite will be unable to use the 4-step brightness settings and wireless functions are bricked. This was however fixed in the V8 release.

Also it says on http://gbatemp.net/index.php?showtopic=33481

The last sentence of the Wiki article is the most important. While NoFlashMe Lite was needed for version 7, versions 8 and 8a have the issue fixed, so you should use the regular noflashme.nds file from the official FlashMe website.

Any particular reason you unflashed it?

Man I want to flash mine so bad, but I'm scared of bricking it. It's nothing like flashing the psp.

Flashing it is easy. All you have to do is hold still for 20 seconds...lol

I flashed my DS like 20 times because I was bored and it's still kick ass. And flashed 2 DSes from friends.

I know, it sounds really easy, and it looks really easy(I've watched a ton of videos on it), but there are so many people complaining that they bricked their DS while doing it. I don't know if they don't know what they're doing, don't have a steady, or just flat out stupid.

But nonetheless, it still scares me. Maybe I'll give it a try when I get my Lite back from Nintendo. If it bricks, I'll just send it back saying they sent me a faulty one. If that's possible. I don't know if they would be able to tell if I was trying to install flashme.

In my opinion, if you're able to type out full coherent sentences with punctuation, you're smart enough to flash your DS without a hitch.
