DiagnoSe - the DS function tester

DiagnoSe homebrew app from Spinal - Image 1Spinal, who won this year's NeoFlash Spring coding competition for his Sensitive DS homebrew game, has released the first version of his homebrew app, DiagnoSe. As implied by the name of the homebrew, it allows you to diagnose your DS system on its many functions. The cool thing about it is that the interface actually mimics that of the Wii menu channels.

With your stylus, you can click on each "DS Channel" to test your DS hardware. Now although there isn't any readme, the application works quite simply. If you can't tell from the icon of each DS Channel, here's the list functions from top left to bottom right and what they specifically do:
  • Test Buttons
  • Test Stylus
  • Test Wifi
  • Boot GBA
  • Test Microphone
  • Test Speakers
  • Fix stuck pixels
  • Test screen lights
  • Test motion card/pak/mk6 motion
  • Test rumble pak
  • Test DLDI FAT
  • Credits
Very useful app, especially those pixel-fixing and microphone-testing features. It suddenly makes me wonder why Nintendo never incorporated these features in the DS menu to begin with. Yeah, you can calibrate your stylus on the menu, but thanks to this homebrew, you can do a lot more than that. By the by. Those two blue buttons at the bottom allow you to go back to the main menu and turn off your system.

# very useful app.Guest 2007-06-24 01:16
awesome piece of homebrew software. solved my overdue stuck pixel problem in less 30sec or even less. other old stuck pixel software does not help even apply for long time and sometimes known to worsen problem instead.



a very useful and comprehensive piece of homebrew application.

I never really tested the pixel fixer, i never had a stuck pixel to test it on. I wouldn't have guessed it'd be better than any other pixel fixers, but I seem to be getting a lot of reports of it working.

Thanks again.
