EMS AR 4in1 : Ex-Cyber's PAR firmware replacement

			Hello! I have 2 of these nice EMS AR 4in1 plus cartridges, and I am puzzled about Ex-Cyber's PAR firmware replacement/upgrade tool found in the tools section of this site. Should I upgrade with this archive? any pros? cons? I have not messed with AR , I just use it to bypass region locks and as RAM. Thanks

			If you haven't had any issues, I wouldn't recommend replacing it. AFAIK, Ex-Cybers tool is meant as more of a recovery tool then anything.

			dibz said: AFAIK, Ex-Cybers tool is meant as more of a recovery tool then anything. That's correct. Also, the firmware images in arflash are just the most common ones; there's a chance that you have a weird cart with different flash chips, in which case flashing it could break the save management / code update functions (because you flashed a firmware that doesn't recognize the chips in your cart).

			so the old rule applies: if it ain't broken don't fix it! LOL I just asked because I thought maybe this flash was "hacked" and added perhaps extra usefull features thanks for the replies!
