EzFlash Omega Definitive Edition got boot loop in some devices

[MNosse]

Hey everyone,
First of all, I am sorry if my English is not so good.
Recently I bought an EzFlash Omega Definitive Edition to play, but something is wrong. When I tried to use it on my GBA (AGB-001) it get stuck in boot screen, the EzFlash logo appears and disappears in a loop. But, when i tried use it on my DS Lite, it works with no problem.

At first I thought it might be a problem with the GBA pins, but i tried to play some games i have and it works. And, i don't think it is a problem with the EzFlash pins because i tried another thing. I used my DS Lite to put a game into Norflash and changed to Mode B. When I tried to run on my DS Lite it works and on my GBA it works too! So I really don't know what's going on.

My EzFlash is a Rev. B and it is in Firmware 6 and Kernel 1.03.

Do you have any suggestion to solve this problem?

Its a long shot but are you using rechargeable batteries in your GBA?

Rechargeables can be iffy with some flashcarts sometimes.

Yes, I am using rechargeable batteries. But I already tried it with normal batteries and same happens.

Then its probably an electrical issue in the GBA.
Things like a failing capacitor for example, you have to remember that flash carts pull more power than a normal cartridge since they have a Micro SD slot.

First thing i would try is cleaning the power switch. It's a very common problem and can cause problems like this. If that didn't help try replacing the capacitors.

Thank you for suggestion guys. I will try it.

Do you think the battery mod could help in this case? When I was reserching about the flash cart I saw a guy using the AGB-001 but with a battery mod
