Edit: I got this to work by changing the region of the game (i don't know what region of the game i had before...) and getting a save with the cheats to unlock stuff on my computer and then transferring over to the micro SD. Not really how i wanted to fix it but hey problem solved.
Funny enough i was looking around at some code lists and @helder's name showed up...thanks for contributing towards one of my favorite game series!
