Hi, I'm having an issue with dumping games with my Retrode 2. More specifically, Game Boy Advance ones.
To be more precise, some Game Boy Advance games such as the American version of Scurge: Hive are giving off CRC32 hashes of 00000000. Any idea on what this problem could be?
Thank you for your time.
Did you happen to flip the voltage switch to 3.3volts for GBA?
There is a chart here for voltage values just in case that is it:

Yes. I know some games are like that. I tried that. I also adjust the size, but it did get a hex that seems more realistic, but the Retrode can't get the game quite right.
Firmware version is 24 if that helps. I've tried a different dumping method and it came out right, so I do know it's not the cartridge is bad either.
I've been having issues with dumping GBA games as well. A few examples are Pokemon FireRed, Boktai 1 & 2, and Zelda Minish Cap.
Slightly unrelated, the Retrode2 can't see my GB Camera's save file. I haven't seen the code but I'm sure all the GameBoy & GBA stuff could use an update or two. :)

What are the file size the Retrode is giving off for the GBA games?

Can't remember what Minish Cap was. Both Boktai games were showing as 0 bytes and Pokemon FireRed was showing as 8.4 MB.
If Fire Red is supposed to be the same size as Leaf Green, it's supposed to be 16, not 8. Might be the same with Minish Cap, but I don't think forcing the right size will automatically fix the game, so it might be worth checking what the checksum is supposed to be, too.
