How To win the "NEO Top Reviewer" …
CLOSE TIME: April.5th
more info: http://www.neoflash.com/forum/index.php/topic,5003.0.html
the GOOD review examples:
NDS Application reviews by MagNet
PSP Games reviews by koollectablz
From this contest we try to use a new judge way — everyone can become the judger! You just need test all contest entering and submit your very detailed test report to us , if can come with your top 10 winner judgment will be best, here have one nice judgment sample come from anjanj26 — http://www.neoflash.com/forum/index.php/topic,4601.msg31451.html#msg31451 .
We will set a new award — "NEO Professional Reviewer Award" from this contest, we will check all review reports and choose top 3 from NDS division and top 3 from PSP division too, so will have 6 top "NEO Professional Reviewer" will get our prize.
The top 6 NEO Professional Reviewers (3 from NDS/GBA division and 3 from PSP division) can choose anyone item from the final NEO product prize list.
FAQ:
1. Where do the reviewers have to place their reviews? — this zone.
2. And do they have to review all 76 entries, or just the entries of one division or just their top 10? — If you want to review psp only, then you will have chance to win the "NEO Top Reviewer" for PSP devision only; if you review PSP and NDS division both, then you will have chance to win both, it mean NDS division and psp division is not conflict, more review more chance. 
And as a "professional" reviewer, he(she) should test ALL entries of the NDS and (or) PSP division and give out very detailed report and give out his(her) top10 position too, that's how we judge he(she) can win the "NEO TOP REVIEWER" award or not. More detailed review more chance 
3. A very important question arises: Do the reviewers have to make a chart, so that the 1st meantioned/ranked entry in the review gets more points than the 2nd etc.? Or do all top 10 entries of a reviewer get the same points?
— You can make this review by your own way, we don't make so much limit, but yes, a very detailed chart and score list will make your review more professional. Remember the entry will get more points if it come with motion support and it's "original" entry.
4. Yes, I'd like to know how many entries of a division we should actually test to make our review? I would only be interested in the NDS division, but would I have to review all the entries or just a selection? — You should review all, but you can give out the detailed report for the "good" entry, and simple report for the normal one.
5. Should games get points for motion support if the motion controls suck? — YES, support motion function and "original entry" will get points both.
6. Is there a deadline for these reviews? — it will stop to submit at April.5th
7. Since "original" and "motion" are +5 what scale are the games supposed to be rated out of? For example:
80/100 +5 to make 85/100, here +5 is worth 5%.
20/30 +5 to make 25/30, here +5 is worth around 15%. — hum…. it should be worth 5% more, like x 1.05

Warning! DON'T run the old upgrade program IF your MK5 menu is 1.45 version already!
more info: http://www.neoflash.com/forum/index.php/topic,4889.0.html
If you try to run the OLD upgrade rom (like the OLD 1.23x series), will make your MK5 v1.45 crash immediately, the only one way to fix it is — you have to try to find the MK5 GBA USB linker to compelte this upgrade process!
It's no way to format it on PC through your MK5 USB loader 2008, and we will try to make this program but it's not easy really and will take a long time.
If you have run the OLD upgrade program already and can't use your MK5 again because you can't find the GBA USB linker, but you don't want to wait our new upgrade fix program ready, you can choose to send back it to your shop for ask they finish this old menu upgrade for you, or exchange a new mk5 directly.
Warn again: DON'T TRY IT!

Neoflash R6 Gold
By: spinal
morew info: http://www.neoflash.com/forum/index.php/topic,4811.0.html
Neoflash's newest flash card will be a surprise for some people as it is not only a slot-1 flash card but it also has full motion sensing capabilities built right into it. There are already homebrew games and applications that take advantage of the DS Motion Card and DS Motion Pak,
and since the R6 Gold uses the same motion sensing technology, it means you'll be able to make full use of the device from the moment you open the box.
Specs
According to the NeoFlash website, the R6 Gold has the following features –
* 1:1 original NDS cart size
* Supports ALL versions of NDS & Lite
* Simple PLUG and PLAY
* Drag and paste, no need for any extra patching
* NDS brightness adjustable
* Supports Auto Sleep Mode
* Built in MagicKey pass2
* Built in 2M EEPROM Save
* Built in 2M SRAM buffer
* Built in 16M menu flash
* Supports homebrew
* Suitable for MicroSD (TF)
* Built in X,Y,Z 3-axis high speed accelerometer
* Built in GYRO sensor
However this list is slightly out dated, the R6 Gold now also features the following –
* Built in 4K/64K/256K/512K/2M/4M EEPROM hardware save
* Nice blue LED
Also included with the R6 Gold, is a nice little USB microSD reader. This reader is half the size of most USB devices and plugs directly inside the USB port (there is no metal surround).
Build
Anyway, back to the R6. One of the first thing's you will notice is that unlike some other slot-1 cards, it has HCSD support. This means newer high capacity microSD cards will work just fine (Although I have not personally tested this feature as I don't have any HCSDs to test it with). Also you will see that the 'comb' that covers the contacts on the back of the card is missing, I assume this is either to aid in the production process, or to make cleaning the contacts possible. Either way, they're no miss. As the feature list states, the card is 1:1 size compared to commercial carts, and although it is a little snug, it's not in a bad way. It just means you can't shoot it across the room like you can with commercial carts. It will slide in and out without a problem.
Software
The R6 Gold works much the same as any other FT based slot-1 card, the menu should be named _boot_ds.nds and placed on the root of the card. If the menu is not found, the user will be presented with the built-in flash menu. The user is presented with the Neoflash logo on the top screen, and some options on the bottom screen for selecting the different save types and booting to slot-1 or slot-2, with the device then searching for _boot_ds.nds on the chosen device.
As with most other cards, the R6 Gold loads homebrew without a problem, albeit currently without dldi auto patching, but that is likely to change in the future (don't worry, there is already a dldi patch for the R6). The menu is a simple one, with a list of files (and folders), each with their icon to the left. Just select what you want to load, and that's it. Wait a few seconds and you're playing.

some nice TTDS skin released
download: http://www.neoflash.com/forum/index.php/topic,4740.0.html
i like the NEON Mario skin too much 🙂
I understand that a long time ago, when XtenDS was first released, people discarded it as trash because of it's lack of functions and options. I agree with them now, it was overly simple, however let's forget the past and concentrate on what XtenDS 7.2 has to offer.
more info: http://www.neoflash.com/forum/index.php/topic,4774.0.html
If you don't know what XtenDS is, it is a gamemaker where you can make DS Games by just clicking to assign backgrounds, where you want sprites and more. See below.
+ Sprites – on either/both screens, any size that PALib supports, simple click to add, right click to remove, supports Magenta transparency
+ Backgrounds – on either/both screens, high 16 bit or average EasyBG mode, backgrounds too large automatically resized in either tile or stretch mode (ideal for photos, wallpapers, images from Google)
+ Sounds – 57 .raw files included, easily playable with XtenDS events system. Option to choose sound channel for sounds to be played through in preferences screen, can add own sounds easily converted with Switch/Audacity
+ Splash Screens – Set a condition (Start, stylus etc), screen – top/bottom, and image to show
+ If – Test condition using the inbuilt expression builder, easy to make conditions using drop down boxes, such as Pad.Newpress.A, also includes End If and Else functions for complex structures
+ Scripts – Easily execute scripts stored in XtenDS/Scripts folder. They will need to be in PALib C++ format, but a code editor/script manager is included with Insert Varilable tools, comment tool etc.
+ Move Sprite with D-Pad, ability to move a sprite on the screen using the D-pad with just one event added
+ More error handling and high compile-success rate with newer system
+ Emulator support – launches an emulator straight after compile with your game in it, you can configure 2 if the first falls out, e.g. exe not found
+ Ability to have the game pause when the DS lid is closed
+ Advanced Options – set Palet name, Transparent color, Background Quality, Sound channel, compile includes and more
+ System scan – finds errors with PALib/devkitpro setup, like missing environment variables, missing paths
Not only are all these changes positive, your games are strored in just 1 file (e.g. Monkeys.xds), meaning less chance for bugs, and they can be stored anywhere on your PC.
Much more is included than what I can think of right now, plus the install is less than 5 megabtes! Also, there has been a big documentation rewrite, it is now a full step-by-step tutorial from download to scripting.
Please try to forget what the Alpha was like, now we are striving for the best DS Gamemaker available!

I'm here to announce the release of the first public beta of my motion kit driver for the Neoflash motion kit.
– By : Raphael
It currently only works for custom firmwares < 3.71, though a simple NID fix should make it work on 3.71 too. I didn't release that version yet because I couldn't test it, but it will be available with the final 1.0 release.
The motion kit driver allows you to make use of the motion kit in the VSH or games even though they weren't written for the motion kit. A configuration file allows you to setup the driver per homebrew/UMD game, so you don't have to use the same configuration everywhere.
Also, the driver fixes the missing sound issue with the motion kit plugged in and allows you to switch between motion kit and headphones any time without problem.
The SDK provides the source for compiling libmotion_driver that allows you to interact with the driver and poll motion kit data, as well as source for a small sample application that shows usage.
