Hello, so recently my friend said that if i download RiiConnect24 it could brick my Wii System
So i made this thread to check if its true or not

of course, with any system modification there is a small chance for a brick, but if you follow the instructions on https://wii.guide carefully, it shouldn't happen

Wii Guide

#

over homebrew browser or?

swift vessel

#

#

Yeah Riiconnect24 can brick your wii

#

But that’s a super small chance

#

Every wad has a chance to brick your wii

#

Very minimal but there is

#

The risk is about the same like the official system update bricking your wii

cinder sparrow
#

well if it get bricked i can get it back somehow?

#

I mean the only brick that requires a hardware nand programmer is boot2 brick as far as i know

#

And to brick that you really need to try

#

Wad installing can just bannerbrick your wii if the banner is corrupted

#

But that is the easiest brick to recover if i remember correctly

cinder sparrow
#

so

#

wad installing SUCK

static token
#

You just need priiloader for this

cinder sparrow
#

i dont need boot mii for the black screen fix?

static token
cinder sparrow
#

ok

static token
cinder sparrow
#

ok

static token
#

But it’s really reccomended for restoring bricks that aren’t fixable with priiloader and any homebrew, since the nand’s are low quality and will just break after multiple flashing attempts

#

Especially the Nintendo Dsi one
