Hello,
I just recieved the passkey 2 for G6/M3 and I'm wanting to use this with my supercard SD flashcard. Keep in mind that I have a newer version of NDS.
Now I've tried the method for "Programming the Passkey 2 Using the Standalone Programmer" and also the method in passkey 2 manual (found in passkey 2 V3) and I am getting nowhere. Here are the steps I've used, please reply if my procedure jumps out to you as completely wrong or if I'm missing anything:

1. using m3 game manager copy over k2ram03.gba and k2hw03.gba to my SD card.
2. I plug the supercard SD w/SD card into the GBA slow of the NDS and power up the NDS.
3. I select K2ram03.gba and select the lead game, which is Mario Kart DS (Japanese)
4. I turn off the power to the NDS and plug in the passkey 2 w/mario kart into the NDS slot.
5. I turn on the power to the NDS but I get two blank screens.

Now I have also tried to update my Passkey 2 by opening K2hw03.gba and walking through those steps but I still arrive at a dead end. Please I'am doing something wrong, if you have any info please let me know.

EDIT: I'm sorry I guess this should be in the Flashing hardware and software section

Thanks,


Christophercombo

You don't need to use any M3 or Passkey2 programs so don't bother installing them.

You have to use Passkey2 as if you're using a Superpass2, so you have to install Superpass2 programmer to your computer first. Then go to your Superpass Programmer folder and find the .gba and .sav file of your game(it should be like this *code of the game*.gba.. I had a US Castlevania and it was ACVE.gba for me..) Then copy those files into your SC.. Boot your NDS(without inserting Passkey2) and choose the .gba file. It should say:


Writing SRAM...
Done


Then turn off your DS, insert Passkey2 and turn on your DS again, you should go to NDS mode automaticly  :)  You should do that in 10 secs or so..

I found Pepsiman's SRAM app is the best for SuperCard. Just put that on and any save should work with PassKey 2 (as long as it works with PassMe 2). You don't need to program for specific games. PassKey 2 holds data for all supported.

1. Run Pepsiman
2. Plug in PK2 w/ supported game.
3. Power Cycle
4. Have fun or FlashMe.

That's what I did.

I put the PK2 before turning off, is there any damage possibility even though it's GBA mode during SRAM loading?

I cannot get mine to work with my NDS Lite! It just shows 2 white screen after following all the methods I have read here...
