Action Replay DS: Blue/Red Screen + Deleted Cheats

Blue/red screen + lost cheats indicates hardware failure or memory corruption.

Likely Causes

• Physical damage (drops, liquid).
• Power surge / improper shutdown.
• Firmware bug.

Troubleshooting Steps

1. Inspect for physical damage.
2. Test in another DS/3DS.
3. Update firmware via Action Replay website (if supported).
4. Format internal memory (erases all codes — see manual).
5. Contact Datel/Codejunkies support.

Backup First

If possible, extract saves/codes before formatting.

Alternatives

• New Action Replay.
• Homebrew cheat tools (TWiLight Menu++, NitroHax) on modded DS/3DS.

Hardware fault likely; contact support or replace.
