I just want to share with you all a handy Android app that I've made for transferring saves to/from EMS 64M flash cartridges using a USB-OTG cable.

You can find the app for free on the Play Store here: http://play.google.com/store/apps/detai … emsflasher

I personally find it really useful for backing up LSDJ songs while I'm out and about (pretty much every day), and easily swapping between the EMS 64M flash cart and my Android emulators :-)

Edit: Support for Andriod down to 4.0 is now done

Edit: Now has ROM flashing and lsdj song manager functions built in.
It's also heaps easier to pick files with the new file picker instead of guessing file names :-)

The new version can also be installed on devices without OTG capabilities but only the song manager part will work. (if you're not sure just install and try 'detect device' and it'll say 'sorry you don't have usb otg' if you don't)

omg, yes. I'm super paranoid about my lsdj cart but having to get my laptop out sucks.

Been waiting years for someone to make a Mac app for 64 EMS carts. But now this is out I'll give this a try as I don't have a Windows computer. This is great.

You may have already come across this before, but there does seem to be a command line app for mac here: http://lacklustre.net/projects/ems-flasher/

It looks like it needs a few dependencies to build it though...

Hey, do you might have the .apk file? I want to try to run this with ARC Welder in Chrome on my Mac so I can just use this in my Mac (:

Nevermind, got it.

It doesn't work, would be perfect though!

I meant to try this out on BlueStacks.  It's available for Mac too so maybe try that: http://www.bluestacks.com/
