This contains everything you need to back NDS cartridges to ROMs plus there saves. You will need a wireless router to do this. (Note: i dont think this can work on routers with security)

1) In the configuration file (NDS_Backup_Tool_Wifi.ini) open it with notepad and change the server IP to the IP address of your computer.
(to find IP, open command prompt and type in "ipconfig" and look for "IPv4 address"

2) Put the configuration file (NDS_Backup_Tool_Wifi.ini) and the .nds file (NDS_Backup_Tool_Wifi.nds) in the root of your card.

3) open smallftpd.exe and click the little green play button. The settings should already be set.

4) Run it on your DS. If all works well, its should connect.


THIS TAKES A LONG TIME SO PLUG YOUR DS IN A CHARGER

If you have any problems look at the pictures to compare or leave a comment and I will try to get back.

BackupBuddy 0.9.1b
 
Size: 294.6 KB
Type: ZIP
Date: 2011-01-12
    
BackupBuddy is a simple utility that finds all files of the extensions you specift on your card and uploads them to an FTP server. The idea here is that you run this utility when you plug your DS in to charge at night. A few minutes later, you can rest assured that all your day's hard play will be backed up.

This assumes you can connect to a wireless network and have access to an FTP server.

Size: 663.9 KB
Type: ZIP
Date: 2011-01-12

*Rebuilt using never zlib, fixes

Scanned with AVG antivirus. No virus or Trojan Horses.

Quick review:
This program quite usefull when you are on the move.
imagine, you are sitting in a car and play a rom. you have all your other rom`s compressed for geting more space on your card.
then you want to play one of your other rom`s and you compress the rom you are playing.
just decompress one of your other rom`s and you can play!
about the compression time:
The Nintendo DS's ARM9 runs at about 60Mhz. The Nintendo DS has 4Mb of RAM.
Because of this, compression and decompression of large files is slow.
The application is pretty fault tolerant, but you should (anyway and allways ) backup your files.

Dump
 
Size: 43.1 KB
Type: ZIP
Date: 2011-01-12
    

Dump is an application for your Nintendo DS that allows you to backup your GBA game saves.
It is required that you have a Slot-1 flashcart do so.
QUOTE(UnplayedNamer)This is based on some code I wrote over a year ago, I decided to polish it a bit and release it as a small tool.
It should run on most slot 1 cards with DLDI support and allows to dump and restore savegames from a GBA game in slot 2 to/from a file on the slot 1 card.

Dump and restore should work with Flash and SRAM, however, EEPROM isn't supported (yet).

I've tested it with all my games and it works fine but it still needs more testing (for examlpe restoring on flash with 'bad' blocks will probably hang the program)

Rudolph has made a few small updates to his multi-purpose GBA Backup Tool.

QUOTE(Translated Changlog)The SAV file extension is changed to the small letter (Conform to GBA_ExpLoader).
To use it for the file name when GameTitle and Gamecode are small letters, it changes.
Trouble that SFN in the FAT library overlaps is corrected.
