EZ-Flash Air is being ruined appearently

August 12 I started playing Pokémon LeafGreen on my EZ-Flash Air. I was super happy, I'm re-playing the Pokémon games in the order I've played back then. But yesterday my save was completly deleted. Tried to start it again but every time I boot the game, there was that "save is corrupted, loading previous save file" message. I tried to figure it out how to fix it and I found out they release a new version (firmware 4 kernel 1.05), so I updated it, like, if there's a problem, surely an update might fix it!! :D

It got even worse. Now every single game crashes/freezes/glitches a few minutes after starting and with a HELL OF A LOUD sound. Also, sometimes the audio suddenly stop playing, even with game going on.

I've been using my EZ Air for the last 5 months and it has been pretty good so far, even discovering the many negative reviews. Now seems like my day has come, and DAMN this flashcard ruined the beggining of this game for me for the next few years... I tried to start it and play many times, tried to replace the battery, switch to Mode B, and even downgrade the kernel to 1.04, no results... 

I'm seeing many people with this problem... is there any fix? Since the Pokémon Bank closure announcement, I'm even more hyped to play the games from gen 1~7, but this thing is ruining so much my day... THIS SUCKS

Is my new EZFlash broken?

Running Games from NOR can cause this kind of crashes or games wont load at all. re-arranging games lets other games work/fail , is this faulty hardware?

EZODE-B Version newest FW Update

Tried reinstalling Firmware and formatting the NOR, any idea what could help or did i get a faulty Card?

EZ Flash Air doesn't boot after firmware update

Need some help! I just got the cart an hour ago, I updated the firmware and turned off the console when it said so on the screen after it hit 100%, I then went to boot up my GBA again but the EZ Flash Air just vibrates and only shows the gameboy logo and doesnt boot into the EZ Flash.

Has anyone else experienced this and managed to fix it? I saw someone else in the group who fixed the issue but they needed to put the cartridge into a DS, which is not something I just have laying around unfortunately. Any advice?
