Backuping up ROM

There are many tools available on the DS to backup ROMs and SAVs. Unfortunately, these tools do not seem to work on the DSi.

Using SavSender / SavReceiver

First configure the WiFi router:

• Basic Wireless settings
  • Wireless network mode: B/G/N-Mixed (actually must at least support B channel)
  • SSID broadcast: Enabled (mandatory for homebrew application using WiFi)
• Wireless security
  • Security mode: Disabled

Then configure SavSender:

• Folder structure:

/DATA
/DATA/savsender-1.1b.nds
/DATA/Settings/savsender.conf

! IMPORTANT: follow this structure exactly. Same letter case, same extension, same everything !

• Content of file savsender.conf:

 www.xxx.yyy.zzz<CR>
 5000

www.xxx.yyy.zzz is the IP address of the receiving PC.

! IMPORTANT: Only one Carriage Return (explicitly indicated above by <CR>). So no Carriage Return after the second line. Use port 5000 (tried port 12345 but with a 2nd CR, and got Connected to AP and then error Error opening config file).

Configure SavReceiver

• Enter IP address (of current PC!) and listening port

Finally start SavReceiver

• Follows the tutorial, etc.
• Got the .SAV files.
• ... BUT DOESN'T WORK. FILES ARE FILLED WITH ZEROES !!!

NDS Backup Tool - WiFi

(Rudolph's tool)

• Disabled windows firewall
• Same WiFi config as above
