EZ Flash 5 - Manual  
First, congratulations to your purchase of an EZ Flash 5!  
In this manual, EZ Flash V & EZ Flash 5 will hereafter be called EZ5.  
1. What's inside the box?  
• 1 x EZ5 DS card  
2. What else is needed to use the EZ5?  
continue to the main EZ5 menu. It is no longer necessary to keep the ez5upldr.bin file on  
your Micro-SD/TransFlash so feel free to delete it next time you have it connected to your  
computer.  
Also found in the firmware upgrade area is an option to make your EZ5 act like a PassMe  
device. Pressing the L button will enable you to boot SLOT-2 devices (GBA gamepak sized  
flash cartridges) in DS mode.  
5. Settings in the EZ5 menu  
When in the EZ5 menu, press L (and hold) and then press R. If done correctly, a Settings  
screen will appear.  
The default language is Chinese. If you feel more comfortable with English, press right on the  
D-pad to set it to English instead.  
You will also notice a "MicroSD" speed setting. By default it is set to 'Auto Detect' the speed  
of your Micro-SD/TransFlash. If you later experience problems running games or  
applications, remember to go to this screen and set the speed manually instead.  
If possible, you should try to use the EZ5 with a faster Micro-SD/TransFlash card such as  
PNY, Kingston or Kingmax. EZ Team currently recommend the following manual speed  
settings:  
Brand Speed (lower number is faster/better)  
PNY 3-4  
Kingston 5-7  
Kingmax 6-8  
Sandisk 10-12  
If you experience problems with white screens when starting games or applications, try to set  
a higher speed setting. If the problem doesn’t go away, it's possible that you have a slow  
Micro-SD/TransFlash card and may need to use the Hybrid tool mentioned earlier. You can  
read about the Hybrid tool in the next paragraph.  
6. The Hybrid tool  
The Hybrid tool was created to allow users with slow Micro-SD/TransFlash cards to still be  
able to play troublesome games with their EZ5. A handful of known games and applications  
may have some irregularities with video or music when playing them with a slow Micro-  
SD/TransFlash card. Running them in through Hybrid tool will help to fix such p  
problems.  
Simply ‘Open’ the game or application you are experiencing problems with. Press ‘Send’ to  
save the patched game on your hard drive or directly to your Micro-SD/TransFlash card. This  
process only takes a second or two.  
A bonus feature of this tool is that it can remove empty space at the end of files so they take  
up less space on your Micro-SD/TransFlash card. This feature is called ‘Trim’.  
7. Saves & Saving  
A dedicated save-chip on your EZ5 card will automatically handle saving for you. When  
playing games, just save as you would normally do. Save files for all games & applications  
are stored in a folder called /SAVE. The EZ5 will create a save file for each game &  
application that you run and place them in this folder. Save files have the same filename as  
the game or application you ran, but will end with .sav instead of .nds.  
Different games use different types or saving. There are 5 types of saves: 4K EEPROM, 64K  
EEPROM, 512K EEPROM, 2M FLASH and 4M FLASH. Some games & applications do not  
make use of saving at all.  
The EZ5 knows what type of saving a particular game uses by checking a file called  
ezsave.lst inside the /shell folder. EZ Team regularly put updated versions of this file on their  
website so it is advised that you check http://www.plextor.nl from time to time to make  
sure you are using the latest version. Again, updates can also be found on resellers  
websites, such as http://www.Plextor.nl . Extract the file to the /shell folder on your  
Micro-SD/TransFlash card and overwrite the previous one.  
It’s also possible for you to change the save type of a game or application manually. This  
could be needed if the game or application you want to run is not yet included in the  
ezsave.lst file. If you notice that saving in a game or application does not work, go to the EZ5  
menu and move the marker to your game or application. The bottom screen of your DS will  
show the name of the game or application, a small logo and what type of saving is currently  
used. To change this preset value, press (and hold) the L button and browse through the  
different save types with the X and Y buttons. L+Y goes forward in the list, and L+X goes  
back again.  
We hope that you will enjoy your EZ Flash 5 for years to come. Always feel free to contact us  
with suggestions on how we can improve your user experience with the EZ5 and we will do  
our best to get it done. Thanks!
