    Usually I steal a piece of code that's about 5 instructions

    so I can do a

    LDR r3,=myroutine;
    MOV r15,r3


    then my routine executes, or i'll just edit some code.

    Recently I tried the callasm function and my function executed but died, yet I know the code works.

    What to do you guys do? Prefer?

  • I dunno, cause I'm not quite that ASM savvy yet... Dunno how to do that...
    You sure you ended the routine correctly? (Just saying, cause everyone makes mistakes from time to time...)

  • I haven't delved deeply enough into ASM to require editing of preexisting code but I'm thinking I'll end up using your method because it's so simple^^
    I assume that with your method you have to "recreate" the code that you overwrote with the 'ldr' and 'mov' in your custom routine?

  • Yes, you have to. And you'd also wanna make sure that the registers after executing your code must have the same values. This can be done by push and pop. Here's my way:
    ldr r0, .Routine
    bx r0
