I think I'mn gonna get the Max Media Launcher with the M3 Mini SD Adaptor because I've read good reviews about the M3

I was affraidof doing it...but cant hold may self longer then 10 mins...then i installed flashme v5 and it was right thing. BUT MY DS HAS CALIBRATION PROBLEM and my sister's too. No joke... Each button i have to touch a bit downer and righter and metroid prime is a pain to get scanvisior pushed. But just practise thing..i have learned to work with it and also code and test apps which use touchscreen as well... When i try to recalibrate in bios that squares move on each touch but they do so oft i touch them. they never get enough and i only can abort recalibration...

A GBAMP with wifime --> FlasheMe, and maybe a GBAflash cart (for very specific homebrew, DSheretic).

Get flashme v7 works a treat on my Lite - keeps brightness settings too

go here for instructions for flashme .. http://www.dspassme.com/FlashMe.shtml

i used the flat end of a drill bit to short the point, way easier than a bent paperclip :]

its really easy to do , i mean u can take the metal off of the short while its going and it will just wait till u put it back on before carrying on .. plug your ds in tho , don't let the battery die half way through, that might not be good .. once its done it also has a fail safe mode where if the firmware gets wrecked some how some way you can revcover .. not to mention after its done u can update to new firmware without shorting the point ..

I purchased the "media player with 4gb hard drive for ds". I have no problems running single file .nds homebrew. What I am having issues with is the emulators and the backups that I downloaded via here. I'm usually pretty tech savy. But for once in my life I'll admit to being a n00b and ask for help. This may not be the right thread. I'm still searching. If someone could direct me in the right way it would be much appreciated.

Datel said to come here. So I did.

First off, don't get roms from there. They make you get emule and it's really gay. Keep googling and you can find some that offer regular downloads for backups. As for emulators, from my knowledge, there still aren't any good DS emulators.

Yeah, I was able to perform flashme on my red ds with no experience with anything of this sort. It was extremely easy, especially with the many step-by-step tutorials out there. I've performed flashme on 4 ds's now, and it's really easy to do.
