Greetings all,

I am trying to flash my second DS that I just purchased (brand new retail silver) that I suspect has the new firmware on it.

I tried to flash it using wifime, and all I got was 2 white screens. It didn't brick my DS, but I assume that means it won't take the flash via wifime?

I updated my older DS using wifime some time ago and it worked like a champ. I now understand I will need a passme2 in order to flash my new DS. I have already ordered a passme2 compatible with the Madden '06 cart I have. I also have a Supercard SD (1.53) that I can use with this new DS.

Therefore, here are my questions:

1. Do I have to continue using the passme2 after flashing the DS? I really hope not! I don't want that thing sticking out of my DS all the time!

2. I have the flashme_patched file (for compatibility with Mario Kart) I created for flashing my original DS, can I just use that file to flash my new DS?

3. Are there instructions somewhere for flashing with the Supercard SD and a Passme2 using the flashme_patched file I made? Or, are the instructions the same?

Thanks in advance for your help!

1. No
2. I don't know, probably not.

Ok, now that I have #1 out of the way, I am curious:

- What flashme (that is Mario Kart compatible) should I be using then?

- I ordered the passme2 for use with the Madden '06 I already have. I downloaded the Madden '06 files from Darkfader's site, but which files do I use and how?

The link posted to the tutorial on this site wasn't very clear on what files I needed to use with Madden '06. Which files do I need to copy over to the SD, and do they need to be renamed?

Thanks again,

R

flashme v.5 is what you need for WFC enabled games.

[ALTERNATIVE]

Which files do I need to copy over to the SD, and do they need to be renamed?

Just get the .gba and the .sav and copy them over, no renaming. Ignore the other files, they're for programming the CPLD, which is what whoever you're buying from is going to do for you.

Alternativly you can use pepsiman's passme2buttonwait program (google for pepsiman passme2buttonwait) and just select the game from that list.
