its just a vmu save you need to do it, it was an easter egg from sonic team... no a hack. all u need is a Puyo Puyo fever save to do it

Use VMU-tools. It can do it. Don't remember exactly how though.

It's Start that you have to press Start on the BIOS screen to enable the special mode, not L and R. So try that and make sure you have the VMU with the save on it in your controller, of course.

If it still doesn't work, you may not have gotten the right VMU save. Puyo Puyo Fever creates three saves. One is a regular save, one is a PVR image to replace the background of the normal BIOS screen and the third is the save that enables the special BIOS screen. That one should be two blocks and be called ICONDATA_VMS and like all ICONDATA_VMS files it will not show up in the DC BIOS file manager, but will show up in the VMU's own file manager.

I did some experimenting when this trick first came to light and it's possible to put any PVR image (may have to be specific deminsions, I can't recall) into that second VMU file I mentioned and have it in the background of your BIOS, not just the Puyo Puyo pictures that come with the game. I made a few custom ones, but PVR pics are so big that it's not really worth the wasted space to keep them on your VMU.
