So I think if the flashrom is "MB8581-XX" it's not possible to change the region with "region changer".

That's correct?

[megavolt85]

unpack to SD or HDD, run via APP FileManager and make photo of result

hm, 04 B0 is MBM29F002TC
SYSTEM alredy unlocked.
i'm really don't know why it's don't work, need more info, wait new test

[dragoncity]

Ok I wait your come back.

In fact when I change the region and reboot,it does not matter...nothing.

Maybe this flashrom don't accept the change?

[megavolt85]

OK, check this test
If your SYSTEM block unlocked (RW) you can change Country, Language, Broadcast and reset to default value

[dragoncity]

Your tool doesn't work,impossible to launch.

Last time same problem but launch after error message..but this time come back to file manager.

[dragoncity]

For the moment I tested,and many JAP V1 don't want to change the region..

[megavolt85]

hm, bin can't load?
check elf
if you can, please make video

[dragoncity]

I can't launch this ELF too.. o_O

But nobody change region on VA0 or what? ^^

[megavolt85]

hm, i check, all work fine.
may be problem with your archiver? you unpack flashrom_tool.elf.7z from archive?

[dragoncity]

I don't think it's that- do you test directly in your dreamcast?

[megavolt85]

yes, i'm unpack flashrom_tool.elf from flashrom_tool.elf.7z and put to HDD, load DS and run via fillemanager

[dragoncity]

I extract with Winrar and 7zip same thing,so not the archiver.

There is an error "_ITM_registerTMConeTable" is undefined.
