All of a sudden sometimes when I play, some of my games start to crash after a while. Even the ones that never crashed befrore. Ie: Megaman ZX says "The Game card has been removed" after a while Jam With the Band freezes Tetris Party Deluxe freezes Apollo Justice freezes Miles Edgeworth freezes Now I know JWtB and TPD have AP, but it should have been rectified by AKAIO 1.7. Heck I even formatted the card and freezes still occur at random. Could it be a problem with the Micro SD, the Ak2i, or the DS itself?
Backup, Format, Reinstall (should be the first steps for any issue you are trying to solve). It could also be your cart is not making good contact in your DS anymore. Either dirty contacts or the card is lose. Make sure the contacts on your cart are free of oil and dirty. You can also try putting a piece of paper in your DS alongside the cart, pushing the cart against the contacts.
Did, did and did. Still didn't help. In fact it was only AFTER I did all of that that Tetris and Jam with the Band started to crash. How should I go about cleaning the contacts of the AK2i card, and where should the paper go if I push the card in? If the MsD card is really dying, exactly how anyway? Like virus ridden? I did an anti-virus scan and nothing came up.
Flash storage is not a permanent thing. They can and do just fail. Sectors become permanently corrupted and can't be used, etc. Nothing to do with viruses. For the paper, put it on the opposite side of the contacts, to "bulk" up the cart and push the contacts against your DS contacts. To clean it, just wipe it with a cloth.
Gotcha. So it's likely that I need to switch to a new mSD soon? So the opposite side if the contacts is basically where the sticker showing what the card is?
