I have been having problems with the new Supercard Ds(One), almost every game would freeze up on me, or get that wonderful white screen treatment. Replaced my Micro Sd card thinking it may have been that, downloaded the latest OS + firmware and still no change. Supercard.cn NEVER NEVER respond to an email, they love keeping people in the dark about their mistakes. What's up with their forum.. talk about sloowww, they can't even get a faster server more less a decent card. I did like their Supercard CF version, hardly any problems, but BEWARE of the Supercard DS(one).So just a word of advice DON'T BUY A SUPERCARD DS (one)!!!BUY a M3 or something elseELM

Pokemon Diamond/Pearl is working fine for Supercard. Patch with default options (ie. Restart, Faster Game Play, Patch Cartridge Access w/ High Compatibility, Trim is optional).EDIT: you don't need to make a save file... the one that the patcher makes works fine...

Did you try patching again? When I played, nothing was wrong.Is the save file 256kB? Go Right click -> properties and see if the "size" (not "size on disk") is exactly 262144 bytes long.
Thanks Lexus!

yes it is 256k, what do you mean by patching? do you mean the 1.7 firmware or is there a newer version? and am i supposted to use the 2.58 software? weird thing is that i did the same thing for another ds, but with a key card(not flashed) and a sd mini super card. and it works perfectly fine, (using the sd software for this one 2.57) so im not sure wats wrong, other games do work fine other than this one ><

you mean you're using the SD software to patch for your Supercard Lite?you're meant to use the microSD software to patch for your supercard lite...
Thanks Lexus!

I just got a MicroSd card with an adapter which you plug into the Gba slot, it came with some games and then when I heard about R4 I went to buy one. Now should I just insert the MicroSd which already has some games and has Ewin into the R4 or should I do somethingelse, like removing Ewin? After that, is moving the roms into R4 just drap and drop? Also should I get rid of Ewin

Before I forget, much thanks to phoenix121 for all his help with these products. :sI have pretty much given up on trying to get any of the GBA Pokemon games to work on the Supercard and just about given up on getting all other GBA games to save on the Supercard.I thought you could just save in-game, as if it was the normal cartridge, without having to do the 5 button press combination. Still for some reason my GBA saves just go away after a while, even though the save file is still there, oh well. On the other hand, Supercard and Superkey for DS games is just great.I was wondering, does the miniSD Supercard support 2GB miniSD cards?I see that the SD (non mini/micro) Supercard supports up to 2GB SD cards but I can not see anywhere that states the miniSD version supports up to 2GB miniSD cards.

Mini Sd are bigger then micro sd, you can get 4 gb mini sd just fine, you can get a 4gb mini sd on ebay for around $30 plus shipping so idd say around $40, but the thing is i dont know what it supports up to.Before I forget, much thanks to phoenix121 for all his help with these products. :sI have pretty much given up on trying to get any of the GBA Pokemon games to work on the Supercard and just about given up on getting all other GBA games to save on the Supercard.I thought you could just save in-game, as if it was the normal cartridge, without having to do the 5 button press combination.

then why bother posting?I'm sure if Supercard SD supports up to 2GB then the miniSD will also support up to 2GB, since they both use the same firmware and patching software.but the thing is i dont know what it supports up to.
Thanks Lexus!

I followed these instuctions and mine still doesnt load up. My DS tells me no DS cart is inserted. If it means anything I my card's file system is FAT 32 and I formatted it once, Also at some stage I think I installed moonshell before the OS.The root of my folder has only files : MSFORSC.NDS, 3 NDS roms, and a folder named scshellGo here -> http://eng.supercard.cn/download.htmand choose supercard DS(ONE). You'll see "Saver Size Database: Update to 0001-0xxx (date)" near the top. Download that. I'll call this file "Database".The next one down is "SuperCard DS(ONE) Operation System: SuperCard DS(ONE) OS x.x (date)". Download that too. Unrar it using winrar [Link].Inside you'll find a .nds file and a SHELL folder. I'll call these the OS files.Now connect your microSD to your computer.Copy all the OS files (ie. the .nds file and the entire shell folder) straight onto your microSD. Then, put the Database file into the shell folder and overwrite the old one.Download roms from this site. Put it straight onto the card and you should be able to play.NOTE: You can also download the patcher use it for optional extras such as Trim ROM

I think, as with all others, it needs to be FAT (FAT16).So a re-format choosing FAT16 should get your Supercard seeing your files.winXP will only show FAT and FAT32 so choose FAT.I followed these instuctions and mine still doesnt load up.

Thanks for your response. I formatted the microSD card and followed all the instructions, but it still doesn't work. Still showing there is no DS card inserted. Any other suggestions?I think, as with all others, it needs to be FAT (FAT16).So a re-format choosing FAT16 should get your Supercard seeing your files.winXP will only show FAT and FAT32 so choose FAT.

Are you sure you chose FAT as the file system when you formatted? Once formatted, did you once again do the steps above?I do not know if the SuperCard DS(ONE) will be shown in the DS menu if there is no microSD card inside of it so if it still cant read the microSD card, maybe it keeps the whole thing from working.It is also possible that the DS(ONE) is not making a good contact with the DS. My SuperKey, also made by SuperCard, does this to me on occasion. Even though it is inserted, the menu shows that it is not. A reinsertion or two gets it to work.Thanks for your response. I formatted the microSD card and followed all the instructions, but it still doesn't work. Still showing there is no DS card inserted. Any other suggestions?
Have you looked herek yo does anyone know why diddy kong racing doesnt work on supercard lite rumble version?

thanks for your response yourdesireddisplayname, but I'm stuck in the same spot. I've removed the Micro SD card and the flash card in and out multiple times, but it's all the same. Everything is a snug fit. One oddity though is that it seemed as first as if the DS one card had a spring loader for the SD card, cuz its was kinda bouncing around, but now it just goes straight in.Oh and yes the software is on the card. I've tried 2 different versions, and I've tried it with and without NDS romsSome of my searching on the net mentioned a firmware update, could you give me some insight on that? MY ds lite is not flashed or changed in anyway. everything is the same from when nintendo shipped it.EDITAfter hitting the supercard forums I did some testing by holding down L+R with the microSD card removed. The test screen shows that there is a PSRAM error, which basically means that the card is deffective. I'll have to return it to the retailer.

If your SCDS didn't show in the DS menu, then it has nothing to do with your microSD. Also, the SCDS reads both FAT16 and FAT32, so it doesn't matter which one you format your microSD to.Returning it to the retailer (for a replacement or a refund) is what you should do.
You're definitely correct, but if your DS isn't flashed and you're using a slot-2 flash cart, you'll also need a passme device, such as Passcard or Superkey. You won't need one of those if you're buying a slot-1 flash cart such as the Supercard DS(ONE).I never used a SC with DS or GBA, and I don't really know how does it works.I read this whole tread, and correct me if I'm wrong but, I'll need to buy the flash card AND a memory device for it??So, if the flash card costs around $50 and the memory device around $30, I'll have to pay $80 to get the flash card working??
