[Pokémon Heart Gold/Soul Silver] Emulation Help Thread

[Christos]

There's been too many threads asking for help on how to run and save Heart Gold/Soul Silver with emulators, so one general thread would be much better. From now on, every thread posted in Emulation about this will be moved here.

Rules

Heart Gold/Soul Silver emulation problems only.
No linking to ROMs.

[Konekodemon]

When I try to play HeartGold on NO$GBA when the game starts it goes all black and nothing happens.

[изм]

I have only one problem.

the game doesn't Save.

[●•ΛΣЯӨЩ•●]

There's my site where you can get the Roms fully fixed and No$GBA configured.
Just download it from there and as far as i know Soul silver is my upload so its sure to work!!

[Konekodemon]

The link isn't vaid. It says,"Not found."

[Gabreon]

My screen goes black after the intro with prof oak.
I don't want English at all. Neither semi English nor full English
Can you help me, please?

[Cello]

Anybody who is having the black screen after Oak issue, follow the megaupload link posted below:
http://www.megaupload.com/?d=XYATR5X1

This is a download for the pokefix patcher. Simply follow the instructions that come bundled with.

This does not contain the rom, ofcourse.

Anybody who is having saving issues, I don't really know what to tell you. Make sure you have your NDS Cartridge Backup Media set correctly in the No$GBA setup. I have mine set to "Flash 512KBytes."
After the patch and making sure it's set correctly saving turns out just fine for me.

[.little monster]

I need some help. Everytime I play, eventually after like 20 minutes I get a "ROM Image has crashed" and even if I saved, it won't say I did and I have to start from a random save point before. How do I stop this?

You may have a bad rom, which is a little hard to believe.

Another thing; Under your no$GBA emulation settings (if that's what you're using), if you are playing the patched version of HG/SS make sure you have it set under Reset/Startup Entrypoint to GBA BIOS (Nintendo Logo).
Make sure the save type is set to Flash512KBytes under NDS Cartridge Backup Media too.

I've had the rom image crash error before, but it was because my computer had too much running which resulted in the rom running incredibly slow until it just crashed.

The only other thing I could recommend if it still doesn't work is just try it with another emulator.

[Kamotz]

1. In your emulator, go to your emulator settings(F11). In Reset/Startup Entrypoint, choose GBA BIOS(Nintendo Logo). Then press OK. After that save the settings.
2. Get biosnds7.rom(16 kb)* , biosnds9.rom(4 kb)* and firmware (It is a bin file. 256 kb)* If you are a pro in DS hacking, get the files directly from it, otherwise download it.
Now if open your emulator, it will show the ds starup and menu. But still, the game won't work.
3. Get eNDryptS Advanced*, place the rom in the directory where you have stored eNDryptS Advanced. Open eNDryptS and choose the first option. The rom will be encrypted.
4. Open the encrypted rom and have fun!!!
NO$GBA is much faster than desmume and ideas.

Also, remember to save often. It may freeze sometimes. You won't be able to use the reset option after this.
*Linking to these files is illegal

When I do this, I get to the main DS startup screen. I click the Game, and I get a "Rom crashed" message.

EDIT: Also, when I do NOT do this, my game freezes after I KO a pokemon (in my first battle)

Yes, that can be one of the problems.
That's actually happened to me before too. xD

[Kamotz]

My game runs fine until I get into a battle. Then it freezes as I knock out the wild Pokemon.

Yeah, that's my problem too! If I run form a battle it will still work, but it freezes whenever I knock out the pokemon. Trainer battles make it freeze too.

I downloaded your soulsilver, but it freezes during my first battle (with a pidgey) right as I reduce the opponent's health to 0.

[Abnegation]

Has anyone gotten this to work on a DS flash cart or R4?
If so let me know! That's basically the only way that I'll play it

[Steeldude]

for Ctep:
I can tell you what you can do not to play again. Save often. After you save, File -> Cartridge Menu (Filename) -> choose ROM and open it or turn emulator off and then back on. Then you can continue where you started. It is important, that it is you, who ends the game, not the error.

[Tochukaso]

My game frequently freezes, and when i turn off to load the last save, it says it cannot load it. sometimes it loads the save again, but not often. any suggestions?

btw this is on the r4ds

[ben_pokemon]

I have the same problem as the two users above. The game runs nicely until I get into the battle. If I run it doesn't get frozen, but If I knockout a wild Pokemon or in trainer battle the screen freezes and it doesn't continue. It just...stops.

If anyone could help, I would really appreiate it. I have no DS and the emulator is the only way to play this kind of game in my country :(

[Scepii]

my game work perfect but it lags,how do i get that away?

[theschmizz393]

ive been playing soul silver on dsemume, but that runs at about 70 percent. ive also tried no$ and put in the code to make it work, but after a while i get the "rom image has crashed" message, and i have to start from where i restarted my emulator last, which is a big pain. so my question would be either how to make dsemume run at about 150 percent or how to make sure no$ doesnt give me that message.

[Skullking17]

when I open my soul silver rom in no$gba all that happens is their is a a blue screen with a bunch of Japanse words can someone help.

[eeveedude]

when I open my soul silver rom in no$gba all that happens is their is a a blue screen with a bunch of Japanse words can someone help.

Do you mean after the title screen? If so, that's normal, just choose the bottom bubble. If not, then I can't help you.

OKay, it worked fine for me and I played kinda cautiously and saved alot but then I turned it off and back on and I started and the same place that I started the first time, as if I had never saved =/.

( I started and played 20 min saved and turned it off -> loaded the game and played saving alot in between and turned it off at 1:15 -> when I tried to load it, it was back at 20 min)

Any ideas what I did wrong?

And btw, the battles work for me.

EDIT: Actually I think I found a solution, I guess I'll post it just in case anyone else needs it. You have to make the NDS Rom Backup media Flash 512kBytes.

EDIT2: Okay now I'm having problems with this again and I lost 30 more min of game...

[Cobolts]

Can somebody help me please, everytime i go to save it freezes :(

[DestinyBender]

I take snapshots to save. :D

One thing I'm not really clear about... where do you download it?

I downloaded a viral on by mistake, and now I can't find any other trusted websites.

Help?

I have done all of this and my game still freezes when I try to save...

[lyk13]

For me, I'm trying out the rom on No$GBA. What you all have mentioned, I've experienced before. THis is how I ensure that I get minimal crash possibilities, but making sure my save is there.

1. Saving in the game frequently doesn't equate that the save file will be there. If you want to make sure your save file will be created properly, after saving, close the emulator. Upon closing, the actual save file will be re-created.
2. Turn it back on, your latest save should be there.

Do these often and you won't lose your save data.

I also get a enter-battle bug(you are supposed to enter a battle but the screen freezes, music plays in-game battle) that I have no choice but to hope my latest save is not that far off.

[Neo-Wolf]

Which is the best Emulator for SoulSilver?
IdeaS or No$Gba?

[jlaney]

Can someone please share a link for the best English patch so far?

Nevermind: Found one! :)

[Late]

Can I somehow turn all crashes off on NO$Gba, I played today from Violet City to Azalea Town, I was in pokécenter just about to save, I just wanted to heal my pokémon first. And... only music plays!!! Most of the crashes are already off but there's some random crashes and I want them off too.

[theschmizz393]

now i have a new problem lol. no$ was working relatively well, with the occasional crash/freeze. now, though, about 75 percent of the time i save, the rom image crashes right after i finish saving. it wasnt doing this before, any suggestions?

[Skully]

The ROM image has crashed.
D:

[Eeveon]

Well, there are a few things wrong the ROM I was playing...

Well, for one, there is a problem in Sprout Tower: Don't get that first PokéBall on the top floor, or your game will freeze in battle with that first monk.

Second, the save isn't working properly. Apparently, I'm saving my game after everything I've done now, and I even set it to Flash 512K, and it still brings me back to nearly the beginning.

Thirdly, occasionally, my game will freeze at a certain point, and say "The ROM image has crashed."


So here's my question:
Should I just make save states if I want to progress further in the game?

[Skully]

@Wind:
1. Thats just your ROM, it's fine with me.

2. Make sure your sound isn't on Digital Mono, it has to be Stereo.

3. It happens to everyone.

So here's my question:Should I just make save states if I want to progress further in the game?

I solved my saving problem by opening same rom again after saving, I always do that and it always saves that. As I start my game I'm in DS menu and I think game wants to quit there too, so that's why I always do that. It works with me. I didn't have any problems with Sprout Tower. I'm using NO$Gba.

My game just crashes randomly as I said up there.

[lyk13]

Guess we may have to live with the random crashes, but save and restart your emulator often and it shouldn't be a big problem.

I have not encountered the save finish and crash immediately issue. =.=

Btw guys, I notice from some screenshots, they are quite colored. I'm using No$GBA, but the colors are quite...dull to say the least. Anyone knows how or why to rectify this issue?

[Ralts 42]

Can someone please help me..

When I try to play the SoulSilver rom on No$gba all that happens is a blue screen with Jappaneese words at the top. There is no title screen, no nothing... just a blue screen with Jappaneese words on the top screen.

Any help would be appreciated :)

I think you need to change the Emulation Setup then the NDS-Cartridge Backup Media to FLASH 512. Oh and thanks to everyone who posted Saving issues and that you have to turn the ROM off directly after saving. I had no idea you had to do that, and lost my game every time! Thanks so much!

[ThatGuy234]

Whenever I start up SS, the screens go black and when I try to do anything Nocash freezes up. Any ideas?

Pokemon Soul Silver: I give up with trying to get it to keep a saved state. I just brought the japanese game card for my game system.

How do I save my game? When I save it just freezes...Please help?

[monkeyboi]

i found this code on another website forgot which one though.
it bypass black screen though and i haven't glitched with it yet, and the person said it doesn't happen often.

it said to but RAW if your using No$gba it's and action replay

First up, ThatGuy, check the first page, they have dealed with that problem,

Secondly, Variety, I had the same problem, however it turned out just to be the ROM. I got a new one of the net and now my saves work fine. Just remember, after you save, close straight away and reopen your ROM.

Hope this helps!

[Akeraz]

Alright, I'm having crashing issues.
I've just beaten whitney (I've had no problems prior to this).
Now, when I try to use a Super Potion, then save, the game comes up with "The rom image has crashed".
The funny thing is that this only happens after using a Super Potion, and it hasn't happened prior to this.

I'm playing on No$GBA, Using the English Patch by KazoWAR.

[humanking]

same here, i decided that i wouldn't emulate it until there's a version that totally doesn't crash and freeze, i'm tired of struggling to play the game

[SethCullen]

I have the patch, the AR code and still, everytime I try to save past Ecrutek *SP?* It crashes. Help?

[Jmih]

okay i think that the prblem is that whenever u save successfully turn ur emulator off so that the file saves bcoz the save will not be saved until u turn off the emu

[Akeraz]

okay i think that the prblem is that whenever u save successfully turn ur emulator off so that the file saves bcoz the save will not be saved until u turn off the emu

That's the problem in itself.
We can't freaking close the emulator BECAUSE it's crashing when we save.

[560cool.]

When I start HG a blue screen with a small white screen with Jap. writing . Thi is in No$Gba 2.6
On NdesMume , it makes a black screen and ... nuffin' !
Any help ?

[jlaney]

Is there any way to play HG/SS on an emulator with a bigger screen? I wish Nintendo would make it so you could somehow
disable the 2nd screen if you didn't want to use it. At least emulation wise, I prefer to have just one big screen like in VBA.

[Late]

Do you use NO$Gba, there's program called NO$Zoomer and you can play with big screen.

[jlaney]

Hmmm...well, HG/SS doesn't seem to load in NO$Zoomer for me. =/

Edit: Nevermind, I got it to work...thanks! :)

[Late]

I have a little question, I know that I can't use GBA Slot in No$Gba if I start my rom as usually, but can I use it somehow by opening the game with DS menu (because it has GBA Slot thing there). I think that it's impossible but if there's a way, can you tell me? Sorry, this is not just for HG/SS.

[mathioks]

hi, i am experiencing some problems too, ok what i know by now, if you arent using no$gba 2.6a, they will spot the piracy and you will only have a blue screen with japanese letters, then, if you start, and have the black screen, then or use the download on first post or use the cheat ( wich i use ), next when it freezes, you will normally start back from where you saved last, when it says " the rom image has crashed " you start back from when you saved and closed the emu, then when you catch a scyther in the bug catching contest, it will allways say " the rom image has crashed " right before you go to look who won ( when it is black screen ) or right after you won, then, the closer you come to ecruteack city, the more "the rom image has crashed " right after saving happens, and from the moment you are in ecruteack and you have talked to bill and got the key item from the man in the house left from the pokecenter, it allways crashed right after saving, wich means you can't save in ecruteack city, that's what happenend with me till now ... i hope there will be some fixes for this soon :)

[LegendaryPichu]

Anybody help? I try to save in NO$GBA everytime playing HGSS... and it says rom image crash. I can't find any fix for this, if anybody knows the solution, PLEASE tell me.

[|Maximus|]

While I was playing SS, I got into a battle and it just froze, and stood there.

[Skullking17]

While I was playing SS, I got into a battle and it just froze, and stood there.
That kind of freezing happens to all of us its just some kind of bug. Just try to save often.

[|Maximus|]

Ok, and another problem. I know this is kind of a noobish question, but is there a way to make the game run at at least 90% whenever im inside it's 70%, outside - 50%

[Mattysaurus]

Okay, for all those who says it freezes after you OK the foe, you have to have the sound set to Stereo or Mono..

[yvette]

There aren't any working anti-freeze codes out there? :( Shoot. Even my Pearl didn't freeze up like this...

I've got my game on my R4 (I play it on my DS). I patched the game too (right after I downloaded it).

[Skullking17]

Ok, and another problem. I know this is kind of a noobish question, but is there a way to make the game run at at least 90% whenever im inside it's 70%, outside - 50%
Well this kinda depends on what emulator your playing on. For most people no$gba runs the game the fastest. On no$gba my game usually runs at about 80% outside and 100% inside.

Hey, I'm new.

Long story short, I wrote up this whole epic bit about how this patch won't work for me, but then the stupid "no link posting" thing came up, and everything I wrote went "poof", so I'll sum it up as quickly as I can.

I'm running NO$Zoomer2.0.3.2 through NO$GBA2.6 running
4159_-_Pokemon_Heart_Gold_(J)(Xenophobia) downloaded from Romulation.

I downloaded the pokefix patch, and I can extract the folder just fine. But then I go into the folder, and it wont let me extract the BIOS and the Firmware.

I'm about ready to punt a kitten, I've been searching the net for SOME solution, to no avail, and this looks promising.

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

[Father-nature]

When i play my Heartgold on No$gba, just sometimes out of the blue it crashes "Rom image has crashed" If anyone could please help me i would be grateful

hey guys, my soul silver game works fine on my R4 card, but at the minute im at college and my DS is dead so i'm not able to play, now im trying on no$gba and having problems. iv put my DS save game into the slot folder but when i use it its just giving me the "the rom image has crashed" error. i dont want to start a new game as iv got 8 badges so far and i just want to carry on with my DS save game. any ideas?

[DestinyBender]

That's odd, I can't find a good download for No$Zoomer, let alone the rom.

But, I am waiting for them to come out on the rom, like a patient person would. Seriously. I am ravenous for that game.

Could anyone tell me where to look for Zoomer?

No$Zoomer can be found in here: http://www.mediafire.com/?eidtzodghz4

Desmume works well, its a little bit slower but it doesn't freeze (at least it didn't freeze yet) and you can save stat so it wont crash when u save

i got DeSmuME but for whatever reason it wont run for me. not that it wont run roms, the thing itself won't start up.

also it should run at top speed including flash carts!

[Jambo51]

I need some help. Everytime I play, eventually after like 20 minutes I get a "ROM Image has crashed" and even if I saved, it won't say I did and I have to start from a random save point before. How do I stop this?

Yeah, this happens to me too.

What i eventually realised was that it reverts to the previous save made BEFORE a crash.

in other words, if you normally save then turn the emulator off, then turn it back on. the save is permanent.

if you save, but dont quit the emulator, and it crashes, it doesnt register as a proper save for whatever reason.

so, every time you save, exit the emulator, then restart it.

Doing that seems to help, although I have no idea why. It's a pain, but in my experience it does work.

[Shawk]

I'm having some problems with the DeSmuME emu. On one account on my computer it works with HG/SS, but on another, everytime I try to open up the rom, I get a black screen. At the top, it just sits there saying (99%) DeSmuME 0.9.4 x86 and won't open. Help please?

Hello! :)

I'm going to be playing my game on an R4 and I was wondering what anti-freeze/piracy patch works well or has the best success rate with the R4?

[yvette]

Wait... they're separate games, right? So you'll have to start a new game on them? I don't want to do that, though. ;-;

Hello! :)

I'm playing on an R4 too, and I haven't found a working anti-freeze patch yet. And no one here seems to know one either... >.> Today my game froze and took me back 2 saves. It's a good thing I constantly save. xD

Anybody? I still need help with this please.

[Andrew McKenzie]

Right, so here's my problem.
Using No$GBA, I've layed through with the freeze fix/blackscreen fix code on and everything is fine and dandy.
Random crashing/freezing every now and then, nothing a little closing and reopening and playing from a previous save can't fix but now...

I've defeated Whitney and obtained the Squirtbottle.
Any wild pokemon/trainer pokemon I faint, it freezes and then crashes.
Anytime I save right outside or inside National Park building or exterior, it freezes and then crashes.
I cannot continue if this keeps up as I must fight at least one trainer and Sudowoodo before I can progress.

I tried downloading and patch the freeze fix patch on and whilst that worked as it was supposed to, it did not rectify my problem as I still have it.
I even tried using the patch and code at the same time. No use.

Any suggestions?
Playing it on ANY other emulator is useless as they can't even get me as far as I've gotten without constantly freezing/blackscreening/crashing earlier on than No$GBA.

Help?


EDIT:
Wait... they're separate games, right? So you'll have to start a new game on them? I don't want to do that, though. ;-;

No, yvette, they aren't seperate roms because we're not allowed link roms here.
You just patch the patch to your existing rom and continue playing.

They don't fix my problem above anyway.

You just patch the patch to your existing rom and continue playing.

They don't fix my problem above anyway.
You need to download the patch i posted (i few posts up)
It stops all freezing

Wait... they're separate games, right? So you'll have to start a new game on them? I don't want to do that, though. ;-;



I'm playing on an R4 too, and I haven't found a working anti-freeze patch yet. And no one here seems to know one either... >.> Today my game froze and took me back 2 saves. It's a good thing I constantly save. xD
Rename the patched game to the name of the game you used and the sav filve should work.. i did it and it worked fine!

[ShinyBlaziken]

Just go here everyone:
Soul silver: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=N0PX8QAB
Heart gold: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=1WMFP4ID
I didnt make it btw!
these downloads translate the text and stop the freezing (it stops all random freezing aswell)!
also it should run at top speed including flash carts!


I downloaded the first file for my Soul Silver ROM. The .rar File had 2 Folders. The first one was SS_Localized and the other SS_Katakana. I copied my ROM in the SS_Localized folder and then draged it to the "DragUntrimmedROMhere.bat" file. Then I get the message :
"Patching...
xdelta3: target window checksum mismatch: XD3_INVALID_INPUT

The xdelta patching utility was unable to apply the patch. Make sure to use the original <unpatched, untrimmed> ROM and extract all of the patch files to the same folder before running this."

I don't know what to do know.

P.S.: What's this patch.PAT file??
I tried to open it but it doesn't work?
Which programm do I need to open it?

edit: Forgot to mention that I've got Vista

[Andrew McKenzie]

Hey, Pokemon League Champion.
I did download the patch and I did do it correctly as it patched perfectly, but it did not sort out my freezing problem.
So no, it doesn't fix all freezing problems, just most of them.
Besides, the roms had many errors to begin with.

I'ma give it another whirl after leaving the emulator and rom alone for a while and see if it works now.

I did use the patch in the localized folder. Should I have used the Katakana one instead?

EDIT: Okay. New problem.
Using the patch, in conjunction with the code to stop the blackscreen after name screens.
Up to Sudowoodo, no freezing after I left it for a while...
BUT...
The minute I save game, BOOM! The Rom Image Has Crashed!

Now, this would be a minor thing if No$GBA had some proper save stating, not that stupid snapshot crap. Snapshots crash the minute you try loading them.

Any help?
Freezing/Blackscreens are no longer an issue. It's just the saving.
Saving didn't bother me up until now.
I have it set to Auto and that has worked. Now, I could try Flash 512K or whatever it is but that'd only cause the same effect I think.

Help?


EDIT EDIT: I HAVE SORTED OUT MY SAVING ISSUES.
Just after the save sound rings, there is like two seconds before the Rom Image Has Crashed window appears.
I attempted to close the emulator just after the ringing but before the Crashed window could appear.
And I loaded it back up and voila there it was, in the position I closed it at just after the save sound rang.
GO ME! I'm so happy I can continue now.

By the way, I have to say, that frikkin english patch is awesome, whoever made it(The guys' names on the english titlescreen).
It's great to be able to play with items and moves and some other things in english so that it's not entirely annoying to read the Japanese.
This way, I won't end up deleting moves that are useful for moves that aren't.

EDIT X 3: Something I just noticed. If you turn the sound off on No$GBA and then faint a pokemon, it just freezes before it drops, after it's HP is all gone.
I found this funny so I turned the sound back on whilst it was still frozen and lo and behold, it rang the faint sound and it continued with no problem.
Funny indeed.

[yvette]

Okay, thanks. When I asked my brother (who downloads and patches stuff for me... yes, I am that pathetic) if I had to start a new game, he said yes... now I'll try your links. Thank you very much!

No, yvette, they aren't seperate roms because we're not allowed link roms here.

Oh, great. I'm so relieved. :D

Realy? Well im not sure what to do then? Did you use a clean rom?

I downloaded the first file for my Soul Silver ROM. The .rar File had 2 Folders. The first one was SS_Localized and the other SS_Katakana. I copied my ROM in the SS_Localized folder and then draged it to the "DragUntrimmedROMhere.bat" file. Then I get the message :

Okay well first try using the kanata folder, second of all did you use a clean rom (one that hasnt been patched before?) If not thats your problem!

[Andrew McKenzie]

No no, you misinterpreted my post as I added edits to the end.
Everything is going very well now. I have found a way around all of my issues.
Thanks for linking the patch by the way. T'was nice of you.

[Lunafloon]

I'm having the black screen after Oak problem, i can hear my bedroom music but see nothing...

Ive tried the patch at the beginning of the thread but everytime I change my Reset/Startup Entrypoint to Game BIOS it tells me the ROM image has crashed.
Without that step it still goes black after Oak.

Is there anyway at all I can get past this black screen? The game works on Desmume but its terribly slow so I'm finding NO$GBA works better but I cant even play it past the naming...

Thanks in advance for the help!

[Andrew McKenzie]

Go to the Utility Menu > Cheats > Add New
Enter this code:
020DD9E4 E1A00000
020D3820 E1A00000

Mark the Action Replay DS Box, hit ok.
Now a thing should appear in the code menu, it has a check box.
DOUBLE-click it to make the tick appear in the box.
Then hit ok.
And it should now get you past the black screen after Oak and on your way to playing your game.

ENJOY!

[JohnBoy617]

I have a saving problem. I've got everything right but still does not save. I'm using No$GBA, settings are:

RealTime Auto
Digital Stereo
Start Cartridge Directly
High (44Hz) Best
24bitTrue
no cash
None/Disabled
VGA (poppy bright)
Medium/Medium Stable
Auto
1
Flask 512K Bytes
Gamepaks all in GBA
Darkness

I'm using the 2.6a version of No$GBA. I want to save this game, damn it.

[Mew~]

Everyone, to stop the freezing just go to my thread in the emulation thread, that will solve all your problems! Ok?

[Tropical Sunlight]

Has anyone played Mario & Luigi - Bowser's Inside Story?
How did you get past the Save State screen?

[ShinyBlaziken]

I also tried the Katakana Folder but it doesn't work.
And I have a clean ROM.
Everything is Japanese and I don't have a savegame in that ROM.

[Tudj]

I get a new rom to see if this would work, and now it doesn't get past the new game things, (the code from the other roms don't work to rid the game of the black screen). Any ideas, time for a new rom?

I don't know what English patch you or anyone else in this thread are using, but mine translate almost everything minus the dialogue of everyone... the items, the Pokemon names, the moves and stats...

What's the name of the translator... the one I use is from KazoWAR/Magius... his thread is here (http://projectpokemon.org/forums/showthread.php?t=4534) but you can't view it unless you're a member of that forum... so to save the wasted time of joining... he made a thread here (http://www.pokecommunity.com/showthread.php?t=194342). Just get them there.

Currently it's on version 5 but I was using version 4 and I don't experience those saving crashes... however, I still experience random crashing and some hanging in certain areas (these hangs can be restarted from your last save point) so it's better to be safe and save and close and re-open.

[ShinyBlaziken]

Well maybe if you looked a few posts high you would see your answer has already been answerd... i hate ignorent people! Use the links i posted (few posts higher up) THE PATCH WILL ONLY WORK ON CLEAN ROMS! (This means rom that havent been patched before) so get a clean rom, and for your save problem, rename the name of the patched file to the name of your old rom and your old save data should work for your new rom!

If anyone needs anymore help with the rom either post a problem in my unfreeze/translation patch thread (in the emulation fourm) or pm me. leave this poor thread alone!

@ Jhonboy617: If you have anymore questions dont hessitate to ask ok?

I ALWAYS and I mean ALWAYS check everytime before asking. I'm not ignorant. I read all the previous posts. One of em says only certain roms will save. But the thing is, I don't want to keep downloading to find out.

[ShinyBlaziken]

I still can't patch my ROM...
It's clean. There's no savegame.
Everything should work but it doesn't -.-

[Avegaille]

Pokemon League Champion, are you aware that the creator of that translation patch has his own thread right here in Pokecommunity (http://www.pokecommunity.com/showthread.php?t=194342)?

So for those who are having problems with the patching, you might as well direct your concerns in the link I posted above... :P

BTW, what emulators are you all using?

[Arjun - PeeB4UGo]

Yeah, that's my problem too! If I run form a battle it will still work, but it freezes whenever I knock out the pokemon. Trainer battles make it freeze too.

The issue (in case it hasn't been answered yet; I haven't read the whole thread) is that you have the sound on your emulator to "off", "mute", or something similar. 4th generation games depend on the sound to be produced for the game to proceed. I believe this was considered to be one of Nintendo's anti-piracy measures with Diamond/Pearl.

[dragonqueen0210]

Um, I've got a question. I tried the patch that Pokemon League Champion posted earlier but my game still keeps freezing after I save a game or enter a new area, so I have to close my Ds and start all over again. Is there anything I can do to stop it doing this?

(NB: I'm using a DsTT card.)

No offense but your spelling and grammar is giving me a really bad headache.

The thread I linked not only translates the ROM but also fixes those areas that give you the black screen... along with some AR codes. I personally used this patch and it's probably better than what you posted (probably the reason why some people can't get it to work lawlz) if I was able to finish the whole HG game, defeating Red and all. I suppose if people can't get to work the patches YOU posted, I should be nice enough to give some ALTERNATIVES so that people don't keep coming back to you, especially if you don't KNOW how to ANSWER them since YOU didn't MAKE those patches you POSTED in the first place. :P

[JohnBoy617]

And yet I still cannot save the game. Why is this happening to me? I'm using the roms you posted, Pokemon League Champion. I patched the english patch to it. I play it and I try to save. Still I don't see the little counter spinning.

What am I doing wrong? I'm tired of this annoying crap.

[Iteryion]

Hmmm...
Am I the only one that is getting crashes after the 4th gym? I mean, I saved after I beat Morty, then closed the emulator (NO$GBA), and when I tried to continue it crashed to me immidietally. Anyone else having this problem?

[yvette]

I don't know if this belongs here, and if it doesn't, please tell me. :S

On to the problem at hand, I was messing around with the HGSS Pokesav Version 0.02 last Sunday, and I ticked the 'All Key Items' cheat. After that, I turned on my game and discovered that I had all the key items from Platinum and not Heart Gold. (xD...). Is there any way I can reverse/fix this and get my original Heart Gold key items back, or will I have to wait till the creator of the HGSS Pokesav to add in all the Heart Gold items? Since it's still generation IV (Heart Gold), I'm still able to use stuff like the Bike. But I lost important stuff like the Team Rocket keycards and whatnot. Great. D:

Halp...?

Criticize eh? Well if you didn't seem so rude when it comes to answering people's complaints, you'd probably never gotten anything from me in the first place... and possibly the reason why no one posted that patch you gave is probably because the one that first came out works for people who already tried it, don't you agree?

PLG's Translation Links are outdated. Magius' Translations/Patches are much more efficient and do not freeze, and they are also more recently updated.

[yvette]

o.o I don't think it's possible however, you can remove those Platinum items that you added by modifying them and deleting them?

Did you back up your save file just in case, cause if you didn't you're going to have a lot of problems there. Either you restart or wait for a new version of Pokesav for HGSS to come out. I actually only use Pokesav for editing the stats of my Pokemon and giving me those items that can either be sold or discarded... I don't like messing with the Key Items since that Pokesav uses the engine D/P/Pt originally uses... DX

Um... the problem is, I don't know how to delete them, and even if I do, I won't have any key items! That's even worse than having the Platinum ones. :x

I don't think I did, but I'll check (most probably not). I guess I'll have to wait, but it's not that bad. At least the 'universal' key items (like the Bicycle) work on HGSS.

Yeah, maybe that's why. I can't even edit Pokemon with the HGSS Pokesav, since it's all in some weird font that's not even Japanese. :( When I saw the 'All Key Items' option, I automatically assumed they meant all key items for HGSS, so I ticked it.

I want to complain. What a misleading option, especially since it's the HGSS Pokesav! Not even any warnings, or anything! >:0

How do I use Wi-Fi? Does it just work with NO$GBA? Or do I need to edit something?

I have pokemon heartgold running at 200% in no$gba how can i slow it down?

[Melxodier]

Hey, for all of you using flash-carts:

I have an EDGE. (They recently went out of production :( )
HeartGold and SoulSilver both work fine, you can save, battle Pokemon and Trainers and possible even complete the game, but it still will freeze!!

Examples:
Accessing the Menu*
After Battles*
Entering/Exiting Buildings*
Randomly as you walk*
After Talking to People*
etc.
* = Only Sometimes, not always.

I haven't tried to test them in an emulator though.
Also are we allowed to say where we got our roms from without actually linking to the roms?? If so I have a speedy little download for you...

Lawlz, I just find you amusing for even calling me "ignorent". Lawlz. Oh yeah, I knew it was a different version, so does it still matter? Besides, some people here say your "found" patches are too outdated now. Also, next time you want to insult someone or anyone for that matter, check your spellings first. Chances are, you'll just be laughed at and possibly trolled rather than left alone.

Um... the problem is, I don't know how to delete them, and even if I do, I won't have any key items! That's even worse than having the Platinum ones. :x

I don't think I did, but I'll check (most probably not). I guess I'll have to wait, but it's not that bad. At least the 'universal' key items (like the Bicycle) work on HGSS.

Yeah, maybe that's why. I can't even edit Pokemon with the HGSS Pokesav, since it's all in some weird font that's not even Japanese. :( When I saw the 'All Key Items' option, I automatically assumed they meant all key items for HGSS, so I ticked it.

I want to complain. What a misleading option, especially since it's the HGSS Pokesav! Not even any warnings, or anything! >:0

Now that's a problem there... DX I suppose it is best to wait for a new version... or start a new game and transfer all the Pokemon you already have in your current party into your new save (also, the HGSS Pokesav, my last use of it, can only edit your current Party Pokemon, the box edit option seems to be disabled)... but as for the Japanese fonts giving out weird symbols, maybe you should get AppLocale (you can Google it and run Pokesav from there, unless you're working on Vista, then you can just set your Regional and Languages option to Japanese, you can do this on XP but you need to restart, so it's a hassle) and install some Japanese fonts into your computer so you can see the Japanese text better... and so that it won't mess up your save file after you're done messing with the new save... xD;;

[Haku.]

if you want to get the anti patch.search kazowar.he have a working patch.

[NickAlert]

The issue (in case it hasn't been answered yet; I haven't read the whole thread) is that you have the sound on your emulator to "off", "mute", or something similar. 4th generation games depend on the sound to be produced for the game to proceed. I believe this was considered to be one of Nintendo's anti-piracy measures with Diamond/Pearl.
Holy crap dude, it worked. Thanks man. I had the sound turned off so no$gba will run better, so i just turned itt o the middle option, muted it cuz the sound is annoying when its running fast or running slow, and it worked! I ****ed up a pidgey for the first time, thanks to you :D

[morrison]

Can there be a FAQ at the start post of this thread? . I wonder what the minimum requirements are to get a hgss rom running on at least 100% speed?

[Mew~]

Avegaille:Wow, you realy suck. Yeah your realy clever, they are out dated now but people when i posted them they weren't out dated. Yeah well i may have a few spelling mistakes but seriously... in only 13 XD You can keep on arguing but i have no idea why? Plus i wasent trying to insult i was trying to point out the key points to my post... Plus you never knew it was a new version otherwise you wouldn't have made that stupid worthless post... As i keep on trying to point out, and your to stubborn to realise that, is that i was only trying to help alot of people who were having problems.... -.-"

[Editman]

I know this has been answered, but when i go to save ma game it freezes, how do i go about fixing that?>

[Avegaille]

:P Really now? Then you suck even more for even bothering arguing with me. :) So what if you're 13... you know what, an eleven-year-old can spell even better than you, and what's even worse, they don't even live in the US and English is their second language. How about that?

And I like to argue, because you plainly keep on insulting without you even realizing it. It just makes me laugh that you can't swallow you own pride and admit that you were wrong on some parts. Yes, I did made some mistakes here and there... does that make you happy? :) How about you, who just keeps on telling people they suck because you think you're so damn better than everyone else... hmm?

If you're really helping them, then you shouldn't really call them stupid or ignorant, now would you? Instead, you will be patient in helping them, asking them questions on what their problem is, so that other people viewing this thread can jump in and help, even if you didn't make that damn patch you were directing to.

If you want me to stop, then I suggest you stop insulting people, and if you do insult them, make sure it's worth reading and not worth laughing at, okay?

---

Editman: I need to know the following before I can help you with your problem, dude:
- What patch are you using, if any? If none, you should try looking for Magius' patch in the Progressive Hacks section.
- The emulator you're using (if it's NO$GBA, what version)?

If you can go mess around your emulator settings, try changing the save type to 512KB... that might help.

[Editman]

I have Xenophobia's Pokemon heart Gold and Soul Silver, however when i patch both games the image doesn't come up, The game just crashes. I don't really care for The translation I justr want it to save. I tried the patch avegaille, but it didn't work. I'm going to download the newest NO$gba, and see if that works.

Yep, you should get the latest, which is 2.6a, though you have to google it since the main site itself asks for donation to get the program... which btw, I heard the donation thing isn't working...

So how exactly did you do the patch...?

There were two methods in Maguis/KazoWAR's patch, if I recall correctly, if you can't run the program itself, you could use the alternative batch method included in the rar/zip file which uses the good old Command Prompt to execute it, have you tried editing that .bat file in notepad (also, I recommend renaming and shortening the file name of the clean rom to at least 7 letters just in case)?

Maybe more details on how you tried doing the patch... and we might figure out how to work it for ya... (also, back-up that Xenophobia rom you downloaded, make sure it's untouched so you can experiment with the patch until it works...)

[notables]

sorry for to all your formation its not real!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[DoodleZ]

I followed the instructions on both patchers but... i get nothing. with the batch one, i follow everything and a temp folder shows up... but the moment the black screen closes, telling me patching is complete, the folder disappears and leaves nothing ... no patched rom nothing... the gui one just does nothing at all... i load the patch file and the rom file... the clean one and when i hit apply patch it just doesnt react

I'll be happy for some help

[DarkBEWD]

For everyone trying to play HG/SS on No$GBA:

Save yourself a headache by deleting the roms and all the stuff for it off of your computer. Seriously, the game will not let you save your game/load a save past Ecruteak after beating Morty and from all the searching I've done for any possible fix for this I've found nothing. So that's it, just save up some money for the actual games and bear with the lack of a speed up tool.

[yvette]

Ugh. For some reason, the game keeps crashing on me when I put my DS in Sleep Mode. I'm in Kanto right now, and I have patched my game. Is there a new patch available to stop this? Because after I beat Sabrina and went to Cerulean, the game crashed when I closed my DS. DD: And I had to restart all over. Not fun.

[CookieDough]

I just refused to play it on the computer and pulled out my M3 Real card. If it comes out in Europe I'll buy it for real =D.
Also, I did try to get it to work on No$GBA but I couldn't which was another reason to play it on a real DS.

[Jmih]

Okay the league glitch is caused because of the black screen code and we cannot save bcoz of it.
So the trick is to turn off the code before the save after defeating lance and reapply the code when the game starts again for future events thats how i got rid of crash.
Oh me and my brains

[xtremekid809]

my game freezes everytime and crashes and delete all my progress

[dilesh21]

MY PROBLEM IS THAT AFTER I OPEN THE POKEGEAR IT SHOWS A BLACK BLANK SCREEN AND DOES NOTHING CAN YOU HELP WITH THIS PROBLEM PLEASE

MY PROBLEM IS THAT AFTER I OPEN THE POKEGEAR IT SHOWS A BLACK BLANK SCREEN AND DOES NOTHING CAN YOU HELP WITH THIS PROBLEM PLEASE

[emanu11]

save frequently this happens to me if i get stuck in a battle that takes a while or if im having trouble catching a particular pokemon so i started to just save more often

[Chaos Uxie]

oh u guys are so dummy just use desmume 0.9.5??????????it has developed a lot since these years.but u gotto have a powerful computer XD

[Lt. Morke]

They released 0.9.5? I started using 0.9.4 after I beat Morty on No$gba with no problems at all. Then, I beat Clair. Upon entering the Dragon's Den (which area text was in Japanese), I get the usual sprite glitches. After that, if I do anything,(ie. open my bag or pokegear, go down the lader, etc.) the game freezes. Not the anti-piracy freeze where the music loops, but flat out freezes.

I was really enjoying playing this since I can't play my Gold or Crystal games since the internal battery died.

[Bws2cool]

I am using No$gba, and got everything to work, but the graphics are horrible for some reason.
Its like the images are JPG instead of PNG.

Anybody know what I need to do to fix this?

EDIT: Now the graphics are fixed and dont look like JPG, but the colors are dark. And there are black lines running through the tiles. Look in my sig for the link to a pic since I cant post links untill I have 15 posts.

[Ooka]

So, I've been looking around for hours and can't find a solution to my problem.

At first I couldn't every time I saved and booted my r4i - SDHC Upgrade Revolution it would be as if I had never saved in the first place. Now, instead of that it says my save file has been corrupted and just starts the game over like I never saved. Any chance I could get some help?

[MegaF]

I got a problem!
Pokemon Soul Silver.When I try to fight the first Youngster it freezes!
Can anyone help me?
I'm using DeSmuMe

[MagicPanties]

There's a HeartGold/SoulSilver rom?! WHERE IS IT?! GIVE IT TO ME! IS IT IN ENGLISH?! >.<

[Emotion.]

I've got it running on desmume no problem, the only thing is the speed, I know it's affected by computer specs, but is there any way to give it a little speed boost, running it this slowly is killing me. I've tried turning off all the extra graphics options (smoothing and whatever it was), but is there anything else I can do?

[kalvin poke silver]

hi guys i am playing pokemon soul silver no$gba and i now beat the 4th gym leader and decided to save in th pokemon center.Remember every 10 mins or 20 mins i save and take off the game.later on i try acccessing my save file and they say how rom image has crashed anytime i try to access my file.what do i do? SOMEONE PLEASE HELP.i dont want to start over.

[PokemonBreeder]

I have the very same problem. Any solutions been posted?

[OsKitsune]

Okay, I've tried to play multiple roms with multiple patches of soul silver on no$gba and no$zoomer and every single time the screen turns black after the intro with oak. Ive tried other emulators but they ru the game at 50% speed. If anybody has any solutions please pm me.

This has happened to me many times and no matter how many times you use the save then turn off trick and then replay it, saving it after beating Whitney, or sometimes, after beating Morty, or anywhere inside Goldenrod or Ecruteak, often causes this problem:
The Rom Image has crashed!

And unforetuantely, the only known solution is to restart the game.
Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, dude, but that rom ain't gonna work again unless you restart the game.

[gabecounts112594]

Everytime I get my 3rd Gym Badge, when I save, my emulator crashes, and will sometimes delete my entire save game.

Please, somebody PM me a solution.

[Dark Pulse]

to people who are having trouble with the rom stopping after a battle the soloution is quite simple, you have to alow the music when the pokemon faints. Dont ask me why but thats just how it is

[Lugia&Ho-oh]

Damn it! I can't play the roms, even with Pokemon League Champion patches.
Guys, you know what? Let's just wait for the Pokemon HG/SS english roms.
They can't have any crashes and freezes.

But to confort you guys, i have a Soul Silver rom that never freezes, that never crashes, and most of it is in english.

And I have completed the game. Now i'm doing all the events.

But there is more. My rom can go to Wi-Fi battle!!!!!! Don't ask me how i did that because i just clicked on every keys of the keyboard and then that happened.

The only thing i can do is trading pokemon.

And if i try to upload the rom it says that the file is too big to upload.

Thanks for listening and PLEASE guys STOP ARGUING.
(Sorry if i have bad grammar.)

[FreakyLocz14]

Idk know if this has been answered yet but for all those having the "Black Screen" problem, make sure this Action Replay code is on in your emulator at all times and make sure RAW is checked:

020DD9E4 E1A00000
020D3820 E1A00000

I know this works for SoulSilver because that's what I'm playing. It should work for HeartGold as well.

[ShinyPikachu777]

I recently obtained an EDGE card but I am still unsure if I want to upload Pokemon Soul Silver onto it because Im afraid it will mess up the card itself(I just got it so excuse my bluntness.) If I do, will I have to do every single step taken to avoid freezing on the emulator or will the card take care of it for me?

[Deokishisu]

If you're going to utterly lie, atleast try to sound intelligent. Oh, and by the way, uploading ROMs to this forum is against the rules. Not to mention the English ROM, when it's available, will probably have more pirate checks, so it will freeze more often then the Japanese ones do now. I'd like to know what you base your logic on. Just because it's in English, it "can't have any crashes and freezes"?

Anyway, with the ROM image crashing thing, I just went "what the heck," and decided to convert my savefile and use the HGSS PokeSav on it to level up my Pokemon a bit. I figured, if it always crashes, what's the problem in poking around a bit? When I converted it back to No$GBA's save format, it loaded back up. So I would try either converting the savefile to something else and back, or converting, editing something stupid and unneeded if you're against cheating, and converting back. It worked for me.

[Zeffy]

Ok, I'm frustrated with my rom.
Everytime I open it with NO$GBA, it says some Japanese things which I don't understand. HELP!

[Andrew McKenzie]

Well, considering it's a Japanese rom... Seriously.
When you boot up and it gives you three japanese options on the emulated touch screen, choose the bottom one.
That will get you on your way to beginning your Japanese HG/SS Adventure.

[Lugia&Ho-oh]

But i went to wi-fi battle only once and then it crashed.

And by the way the crashes and freezes are back.

[BR25]

I dont know if this has been posted already but when i open the rom its just a blue screen with japanese writing (emulator NO$gba)

[Andrew McKenzie]

There is clearly an error with the rom itself.
Download a fresh one from somewhere(Don't ask me where, Google is your friend)
and try again.

It may also be the emulator you're using.
What version of No$Gba are you using? 2.6 or 2.6a?
Or do you use a lower version?

[raziell]

thx...........................................

[PKMNLUVER]

USE THIS CHEAT AND SET IT TO RAW
020DD9E4 E1A00000
020D3820 E1A00000
THEN RESET IT IT SHOULD WORK AND THE BLACK SCREEN WOULD BE GONE
AND THE SAVE GAME ISSUE I CANT HELP I THINK U SHUD WAIT TILL MARCH - APRIL FOR IT
I MEAN ENGLISH VERSION RELEASE DATE IS MARCH 14

[andily]

Hey guys just wanted to say nice work on the patches and stuff. I been playing soul silver on no$gba 2.6a. I'm after the 3rd gym and I try to save in the northen part of goldenrod where the you either go to the pokethlon dome or the the national park and i try to save after this points in the game and it keeps crashing when I try to save, I get the NO$GBA FATAL rom image has crashed. I've tried saving in different places outside the dome in it, different parts of the national park and violet city and it still crashes right after it finishes saving :( I'm using Magnius's Pokemon Soul Silver Translation v4

[11235]

As far as Emulating goes, I've had a lot of luck with No$Zoomer.

Unpack it into the same directory as No$GBA, and just run No$Zoomer.

When I used it in conjunction with the codes:

020DD9E4 E1A00000
020D3820 E1A00000

I found it to be fully playable, with no save issues.

Hope this helps,

11235

P.S. This MUST be used with No$GBA 2.6a... Apparently, it won't really provide any benefits if used with a lower version (Though I haven't tested this).

[hammerofdusk]

Just go here everyone:
Soul silver: [had to remove this from the quote cause I don't have enough posts to post links]
Heart gold: [see above]
I didnt make it btw!
these downloads translate the text and stop the freezing (it stops all random freezing aswell)!
also it should run at top speed including flash carts!

What if the ROM I've been using already has a patch? Should I just download a new, unpatched one? If I do, do I rename the ROM to whatever my save file name was? Also, will the patch put the ROM in english? Also, whether or not I have to add an english patch after this patch, won't it mess the game up, since it'll be slightly different than the one I had? Sorry I'm asking so many questions, I just want to be clear with this whole process.

[gray0x]

I'm having the problem where the rom image crashes when I try to save after beating Whitney on SoulSilver. I've tried multiple patches and no$zoomer but nothing's helped. Any fix for this yet?

[antzmaster89]

Well looks like people will have to wait for the english rom or for the people with a DS themselves can buy it next month when it hits the stores.. But it'd be nice to know where the working english patches are.

[Maxim]

I need a patch that would make the KOREAN HGSS work under NO$GBA.

The problem with Korean versions is exactly the same as with Japanese - after Oak Intro the screen blacks out and you can hear muted New Bark Music. I've tried patching it with the same patch that I used for Japanese version but it didn't work.

I really need patch for KOREAN versions.

And yes, I have the most recent NO$GBA version.

[Taichi]

I need help.
I cant get a patched rom at all after using DeltaGUI.
I do everything it says in the read me and nothing happens.
I don't get another file with 124-125 mb with patched at the end of the name?
Help?

Edit: Forget it, I download a prrepatched one.

[Destiny.]

Use the Pokemon Heart Gold or Pokemon Soul Silver Roms from the "HG/SS ORIGINAL Rom" folder to do the following:

STEP 1 - Patch Original Rom with the "No-Freeze RUDOLPH PATCH".

STEP 2 - [Optional - ONLY if you want the menus, Pokemon, attacks, etc. in English]
Patch with the ENGLISH PATCH

(I use KAZOWAR's english patch v6)

STEP 3 - Patch with the CHEAT PATCH.
[It patches the No-Black Screen AR cheat into the game to stop the Black Screen.]

sTEP 4 - Use the ROM DECRYPTER.

STEP 5 - Go into No$GBA's Emulator Settings and make sure the Reset/Startup Entrypoint is set to "GBA BIOS (Nintendo Logo)" before playing.

--------------
As it happens, I think I'm not allowed to post the links. These are easily found on the Internet, do a Google search. If you become tired of enabling DS cheats manually every time you start up No$GBA download an auto trainer called DSATM. It can patch a rom PERMANENTLY with an anti-black screen code, like this one:

020DD9E4 E1A00000
020D3820 E1A00000

Patches? Rudolph's anti freeze is the best. Follow the instructions above for the best result.

Save often and exit when you do. No$GBA 2.6a only writes SAVs when you exit the emulator. ROM running slow?

Set the EMULATION SPEED in options to Unlimited MHZ disaster 50% NDS catridge backup to Auto. Put Sound Output to DIGITAL MONO and Sample rate to LOW.

Can't help those with DESMUME. The best you can do with this is set the FRAMERATE up higher. Speed up codes for NO$GBA 2.6a (DOES NOT WORK WITH DESMUME):

[SirGucci]

How to get Japan/Korea/French/Any/English version working flawlessly without codes.

Get latest no$gba and latest no$zoomer

Obtain the BIOS by dumping from your DS (sorry, that is the only legal way of doing it)

Put the firmware.bin, BIOSNDS7.ROM, BIOS NDS9.ROM, and BIOSGBA.ROM into the same folder as no$gba and no$zoomer

Go to emulation options and change the Reset/Startup entry to GBA BIOS, save options.

Load the game again and victory achieved!

[Pearls_Barf]

I have a file type question. I have the Japanese HG Rom running on No$gba 2.6a, and I am going to get the English Rom. If i change the file name on the english ROM to match the .sav file name of the Japanese Rom can they work together. Can I run the English ROM using the Sav file that was made with the JP ROM?

[ben_pokemon]

SOLUTION FOR THE NO$GBA USERS!!!


Follow these instructions:
- Download the latest NO$GBA (2.6a) and NO$ZOOMER (2.3.0.2)
- Download biosnds7.rom and biosnds9.rom.
- Put them together in the same directory with the game.nds and the emulators.
- Open your NO$ZOOMER and change the startup entrypoint to: GBA Bios (Nintendo Logo)
- Your HG/SS game will open normally and successfully pass the black screen.
- You may get a freeze every 20-25 minutes so be sure to save often.

[Toxicroak]

Does anyone know how to fix the black screen freeze for R4 users? not no$gba.

[Gearuvagen]

Is there a U.S code to fix the black Screen like the Japanese one?
