I found out that the irq handler wasn't called, and fixed it by using irqEnable(IRQ_HBLANK);
But I still have 0ms for all functions :cry:
(the hblanks variable is incrmented correctly)

WHOOPS I forgot a very important line. Add this line before irqSet()

Code: Select all

irqEnable(IRQ_HBLANK);

It's probable that the loop is being optimized out. I added some real code and it works fine for me.

It works! It seems my ndslite button was a bit hard to press, so it didn't save the log and kept the old one :oops: thanks for everything!
Hope you guys will get the -pg option to work someday :mrgreen:
