I just got a SuperPass last night (not a supercard though, coz I already have a gba flashcart) and I had a few questions bout FlashMe.
1 - I've already read that installing it can screw up local wifi matches (which is a turn off) but I wanted to know if online play will work properly, and if my original ds carts will work online.

2 -Also, I think I read somewhere that you have to push a button combination  (after FlashMe is installed) to boot the flashcart / supercard in ds mode, does that mean that if I put a ds rom on my flashcart

3 - I'm scared to remove my superpass coz it fells like its gunna tear out my ds slot with it ( I read that happened to someone else) Any hnts on removing it.

Thanks in advance guys

Yes, online play will work fine.  Even local wifi will work fine. The only problem is hosting a single-cart game with a non-FlashMe DS.

Yes, rom renamed to _BOOT_MP.NDS (i think)

Just like a regular game, the superpass needs to be gently pushed in (click) to get the DS to release it out.  It should not require strong force.

Here's how to do it:

1.- Pacth the rom using loadme, and flash it to your GBA flashcart in single ROM mode.
2.- Start the NDS while holding ABXY that should boot into NDS mode.

As bitblt said, just gently push it inside until a click, and then remove it.

the one that bitblt said is not for Superpass. the _BOOT_MP.NDS is for the GBAMP, for the flashme you need to change the game code to PASS or in the GBA header put "DSBooter"

Thnx guys, but somehow my post cut off the rest of q. 2, sorry I should have checked. I wanted to know if I could access both the ds rom by booting it in ds mode (with the button combo) and my gba stuff (multi boot menu) by just booting without the button combo. I figure that if I have one ds rom as the first rom in my cart it will boot that in ds mode or it will otherwise go to the boot menu (for the gba stuff). Does that make sense? Thnx again, u guys r a great help!
