hm, test from dreamcast with HDD
i'm really don't know why, on my dreamcast it's work fine

flashrom_tool.bin - MD5 02db00aee28e84daa1c46e73a103d60f
flashrom_tool.elf - MD5 2c72ee9ac30d933bed84a729779ff431

Share you your DS with flashrom please,I will test

Ok now works.. strange..I use the last DS..why ? o_O

Your DS_CORE.BIN it's not the same..

------

So it's crazy because the SWIRL don't change (always in Orange not Blue),and I see with your tool "Country Europe"..why?

BUT I tested a PAL game and Doesn't work !

test reset to default please

Change nothing...

on photo inital value or you alredy change region by my tool?

No with Region Changer 1.5 by SWAT.

But after reboot SWIRL doesn't change...always Orange..and PAL game doesn't boot !

change region by my tool to
Country - Japan
Language - Japan
Broadcast - NTSC

save, reboot, change to Europe - English - PAL

Ok I will test,but why Europe - English - PAL ..and not Europe - French - PAL ?

English or French change nothing it's that?

Ok.

So I changed :
Country - Japan > Language - Japan > Broadcast - NTSC

Reboot

After that 60hz come back.

AND I changed Europe > English > PAL

Write do nothing..change language and broadcast but not the Country,when I click sur Write this puts JAPAN...

(26.04.2018 20:06)dragoncity писал(а): [ -> ]Yes Original game.

it's checked by BIOS, for run game another region need Region FREE BIOS
region in a flashrom doesn't participate in this check

hm, no, it's not normal

So doesn't work

For write need just the cable 12V to R512 right?

With VA1 no problem with Region Changer 1.5...

yes
SYSTEM - RW , then your flashrom unlocked for write. without 12V to R512 SYSTEM - RO (read only)
