Black 2 ROM not working

Post by bsheppard » Thu Mar 16, 2017 8:29 am

I can't get the pokemon black 2 rom to work on my android tablet no matter what I do. I've tried setting the option of Auto-trim ROM to on, and I've tried extracting the nds file from the 7z file, and I can load the game, but all that I get is a blank white screen. I know that it's not the emulator or the tablet because I have other DS games and they all work fine.

Can you check to make sure you have a good ROM? This thread will help:

There may be some Android devices that don't have enough address space to load a 512MB DS ROM. Are you using a custom Android ROM? What tablet is it?

What is the filesize of the ROM file? (It should be either 512MB or around 275MB). Only asking this because my copy of white 2 stopped working, and on further inspection the actual file was corrupted.

My tablet is a Samsung galaxy tab 4. I downloaded the dsi enhanced U Friends rom. According to the site where I downloaded it, the size is 75 MB but I don't remember for sure.

If its only 75mb, then yeah, it most likely is.
