Hello, I recently purchased a Micro SD SC Lite rumble on holiday in Hong Kong and I can't seem to get it to work.

I have followed all the instructions on the supercard.cn site and http://www.xphilez.com/showthread.php?t=37949 guide

After I patched the game and copied the 2 files (.dsq + .sav) on to the micro sd card and loaded it on the ds lite I can't see anything in the 'List' tab. But I only see the .sav file in the 'Saver' tab

I am currently using supercard v2.56 micro sd pro version. Help would be much appreciated

Many thanks in advance

Is your DS flashed or do you have a nopass device, you need one or the other.

I don't think my DS is flashed, and I don't have a pass device as well

popinadam

You'll have to purchase a nopass device like superkey and use that with your supercard. You can use the superkey also to flash your ds if you don't want to have to have the superkey in your ds everytime you want to use the supercard.

Thanks popinadam for that. Why was I not told this from the supercard.cn site. I read somewhere that I did not need one.

I am now back back in the UK, can you tell me where I can get hold of Superkey as I am new to all of this

Once again many thanks for your help so far

I just read the supercard.cn faqs site with regards to this question

http://uk.supercard.cn/manual/faq.htm

Q: If I don't have a SuperKey, can I play NDS games with SuperCard?
A: Yes. You need to use FlashMe program flash your NDS firmware.

How can I get this "FlashMe" program to flash my nds firmware? Is it a superkey device I will need after all?

popinadam

Right, but you need a nopass/passkey device to install the FlashMe in the first place. Go figure right. So unless you know someone that'll let you borrow one to flash your DS with you'll have to buy one yourself. This might be the cheapeast website here http://216.119.88.100/s/scardgb/buynow/buy1gUK.php (Includes Shipping) but i'm not for sure since I don't know all the UK sites.

Here's links to the FlashMe sits:

OK thanks for that popinadam. I just looked at this site [http://www.cheapmod.net/ccp51/cgi-bin/cp-app.cgi] which sell them and found 2 for sale. "Super Key" and a "Pass we 3"

I know the Passcard 3 and Superkey and Max Media Launcher all do the same thing, I don't have any idea if the PassWe3 works with anything other then it's other Ez-Flash products though.
