Firmware Editor

NahuelDS · April 19th, 2008

For those that were waiting for a tool to edit your own firmware. Here it is.
Is a little software called NDS Firmware Changer 1.0.
You can edit the followings options:
Name, Language, Color, Day of birth, Month of birth..

I´ve tried editing a 256kb firmware and works perfect!.
The only problem that I found is that you cound´t edit the 512kb firmware (iQue Ds - japanese).

Mynemisbat-Zul · April 19th, 2008

All credits go to the Italian coder Batblaster (the author of the firmware editor)

Sory i didn´t note that. I don´t want to "steal" credits

If you read the readme file there is no credits at all! jeje

Well, it's a nice program

it's easier than editing it with a Hex editor, that most of people doesn't know how to use, thanks

No problem, I think it should be added to the FAQ page (if it's not there already)
And not your fault, you can read author's name in the About window only, I just wanted to point out that it has already been posted

The reason why that program is not in any FAQ thread is because not everyone has a real ds. They might have downloaded an illegal copy of a firmware off the web and use that program to edit the firmware.

thats not the reason at all.
infact, the editor is no different to the various rom tools listed on the ngemu downloads

Yes!Hex Editor was kinda hard to some people.And this one was very easy.

ryanlow134 · May 17th, 2008

uh...i don't have a real DS

SCHUMI-4-EVA · May 17th, 2008

Then you have no business using no$gba.

Mynemisbat-Zul · May 17th, 2008

ryanlow134,you said you don't owned a DS.Then,you shouldn't be here.I guess,you even download your games.

ryanlow134 · May 18th, 2008

T_T....that's no fun...

Smilley · May 18th, 2008

Actually, without using either firmware and BIOS, he could still play PD-ROMs with No$.
@Mynemisbat-Zul: Changing variables like language and favourite color isn't that hard if you know what to look for, but altering your name means recalculating a checksum; that's way easier if you redump the firmware or use the editor.

Ma Chao · May 18th, 2008

Although he did ask questions about comercial games on no$gba

XDPirate · May 18th, 2008

iQue DS is not Japanese, it's Chinese

DeltaUnion · May 27th, 2008

Wait, so editing the firmware, will that solve my problem of the emulator crashing? If I load from the bios, it always crashes...
