For those interested in a 3rd party review of these things, I have some on the way. I'll be sure to let everyone know what I think.

Any impressions for us?

How can we just buy these already made from you?

Liar! Take this to fighting street!!

Honestly, I am so very excited to hear your opinions. I might pick some of these up with the hopes of finishing our home-brew and putting them on these cards.


 Thanks!

You retards need to understand the language that needs to be used in a thread like this. It's not that hard.

got some in the other day. used a 29F080 i salvaged from a dead xbox1 console. takes some getting used to with the GQ4X in getting the card pins lined up just right with the adapter but works good once done. the gq4x wont recognize the chip id so i just ignore and it erases and writes pretty fast.
gonna try other roms and experiment with it a little.
thanks ichi,your shipping was incredibly fast.

I got mine. Quality is superb. I don't have much else to say. Perfection?

Thanks for the review. Do you feel like flashing these could be performed by an absolute beginner with absolutely no rom flashing experience? Did you get the black, white, or any other variants?

It's really not hard to do. The nice thing is, if you mess it up you can erase the chip and try again :)

(Do check the file size, though. It drove me nuts not working until I realized I needed to remove the header from the file)

Thanks guys ;)

IMPORTANT
Do not forget to create (or edit) the customdevices.txt file in the GQ4x directory and add the lines i've written in the 1st post.
Because the 29F080 description for the cards is not the same as the 29F080 already available in the list.
With the Willem programmer, you'll need to move the jumpers for 29F080 / 39SF040 - 29F040.

To prepare your files before flashing,
use my little app available in the 1st post (named huconv v1.5)
it will remove header and generate 2 files (for US and JAP hardware)

Hi guys, some of you send me PM recently.
I'll update prices & offers in few hours.
To be short : I'll remove the mask part, as it take too much time to fab (last time 4 weeks...).
So I'll give EPS files to make/fab them by yourself.
