    So, I got bored at one night few weeks ago, and started wondering why Nomad doesn't work with PBC... So grabbed one of my Nomads, gave little more thorough inspection and noticed that the !PutIntoSMSmode signal on cartslot is not connected... so I grabbed my MD2 and pinpointed the responsible signal on the system ASIC, connected it in my Nomad and wohooo, we have SMS mode :D

    Pics in the attachment... the board scan is too big to attach, I need to upload it somewhere, so you can't really see the actual mod.

    On another note, I have totally Europefied my Nomad and added Reset function plus few itty bitty mods. The Nomad LCD controller is 100% PAL compatible and I wonder why the hell didn't Sega release one in Europe :crying:

    PS: That PBC is home made, and its a bit too compact for a Nomad so any more sudden movement will end up with a crash :(
