Hey!
Want to know if somebody can help me a bit
I formatted my Wii (I didn't check the version before)
So after this, the first thing that loads is this preloader black screen (normally I should see the wiimote screen but doesnt happen),
I'm offered with some options, but I can not run systemmenu nor homebrew channel even though these are listed in the options
Does anybody know what should i do? thanks!

Holy shit why do you still have preloader

#

Also your reset button is probably stuck

tepid epoch Mar 8, 2023, 4:17 AM

#

I dont know why haha

golden kindle Mar 8, 2023, 4:17 AM

#

Also why did you format your Wii

tepid epoch Mar 8, 2023, 4:18 AM

#

i have tried unplugging the power wire, waiting and the turning it on again, same

#

Because it was an old flashed OS that was getting stuck often

#

So i wanted to start all fresh and install HBC myself

golden kindle Mar 8, 2023, 4:18 AM

#

tepid epoch Because it was an old flashed OS that was getting stuck often

That’s not gonna fix your problem though. All that does is wipe your saves

tepid epoch Mar 8, 2023, 4:19 AM

#

How can i get this preloader removed as well?

golden kindle Mar 8, 2023, 4:19 AM

#

tepid epoch How can i get this preloader removed as well?

Well first somehow get your reset button unstuck on your Wii

#

So you can boot sysmenu

tepid epoch Mar 8, 2023, 4:20 AM

#

But if i pressed should it suppose to remove the preloader?

#

imma send a video lol

#

wait

golden kindle Mar 8, 2023, 4:21 AM

#

tepid epoch But if i pressed should it suppose to remove the preloader?

Pressing and holding the reset button boots to preloader. If your reset button is stuck it will only boot to preloader

"Error autobooting systemmenu, ticket not found!"
Wouldn't this imply that preloader just found a lack of sysmenu though

ripe wasp Mar 8, 2023, 4:23 AM

Good question

#

There you go

golden kindle Mar 8, 2023, 4:25 AM

#

ripe wasp Could use the load/install feature to potentially recover this right

Hmm actually that could work

ripe wasp Mar 8, 2023, 4:25 AM

#

Can preloader pull from sd card?

#

Id assume yes

chilly pelican Mar 8, 2023, 4:26 AM

#

lets hope so

tepid epoch Mar 8, 2023, 4:26 AM

#

Yeah i can install things from sd

chilly pelican Mar 8, 2023, 4:26 AM

#

can you run hbc

tepid epoch Mar 8, 2023, 4:26 AM

#

havent go any further cause dont wanna brick it

chilly pelican Mar 8, 2023, 4:26 AM

#

oh nope you cant

ripe wasp Mar 8, 2023, 4:26 AM

#

He'll need to reinstall it

tepid epoch Mar 8, 2023, 4:26 AM

#

what should i try first?

chilly pelican Mar 8, 2023, 4:26 AM

#

yeah can you download and run the hackmii installer

#

https://bootmii.org/download/

tepid epoch Mar 8, 2023, 4:28 AM

#

so i paste this entire folder to the sd, and from load/install i should run boot.elf?

golden kindle Mar 8, 2023, 4:28 AM

#

You would be running the app via homebrew channel like any other app

tepid epoch Mar 8, 2023, 4:28 AM

#

turns out that i have not access to the hbc

#

somehow i would need to access it from the sd or something

ripe wasp Mar 8, 2023, 4:29 AM

#

One second

#

This probably will not apply to preloader but I wanna see something

you extract it to apps then head to load/install file

tepid epoch Mar 8, 2023, 4:31 AM

bear in mind that i can not access hombrew channel and the wii wont load system menu nor main menu

golden kindle Mar 8, 2023, 4:31 AM

#

Man this is some shit right here

ripe wasp Mar 8, 2023, 4:31 AM

#

Yeah, load/install lets you run from the SD card

#

fringe harbor Mar 8, 2023, 4:31 AM

#

golden kindle Man this is some shit right here

I fixed this for someone by reinstalling system IOS files and sysmenu, bootmii and hbc

#

oddly they were also on preloader and not Priiloader

ripe wasp Mar 8, 2023, 4:32 AM

#

I figured thay would've been the logically the path to take

golden kindle Mar 8, 2023, 4:32 AM

#

I don’t doubt that this is fixable. It’s just pretty crazy

ripe wasp Mar 8, 2023, 4:33 AM

#

Tbf I've seen reports of dumber shit like WiiU NANDs just dying with not being used kekw

tepid epoch Mar 8, 2023, 4:34 AM

#

Okay so should i go and shoot this hackmii boot.elf?

ripe wasp Mar 8, 2023, 4:34 AM

#

Yep

golden kindle Mar 8, 2023, 4:34 AM

#

tepid epoch Okay so should i go and shoot this hackmii boot.elf?

Do it

tepid epoch Mar 8, 2023, 4:39 AM

chilly pelican Mar 8, 2023, 4:44 AM

tepid epoch continue as hell?

? yes

ripe wasp Mar 8, 2023, 5:12 AM

#

So at least v4.2

golden kindle Mar 8, 2023, 5:14 AM

tepid epoch lol

after doing that install priiloader https://wii.guide/priiloader

tepid epoch Mar 8, 2023, 5:15 AM

just finished the nand backup

#

funny fact: i installed hbc and bootmi, but every since the console boot it keeps showing preloader screen lol

ripe wasp Mar 8, 2023, 5:18 AM

#

Yeah the sysmenu is fucked lmao

#

But now you can go into HBC and use other repair tools to fix everything

golden kindle Mar 8, 2023, 5:19 AM

#

I recommend you use the Windows program, ModMii. It has many Wii modding tools or "activities" built in.

Do a Syscheck by following this Guide https://wii.guide/syscheck

Download and install ModMii to your windows PC
https://modmii.github.io/

Launch Modmii Classic (not ModMii Skin)
Type I Agree and press enter
Type SU and press enter to select the Syscheck Updater Activity.
Provide it the syscheck.csv file you just made by dragging the syscheck.csv file from the root of your SD and dropping it into the ModMii window.
It might ask you if you want to remove\overwrite RiiConnect24 in IOS 31. You can say no.
It'll list many wad files that it will download, select Y = Yes, Generate Guide and Begin Downloading
Follow the generated guide closely to update your mod files.

U do have autoboot set to disabled

#

Syscheck Updater won't reinstall sysmenu but they should still do the syscheck updater

#

We'll just have them do a region change to 4.3 using ModMii afterwards

tepid epoch Mar 8, 2023, 5:34 AM

#

alright so after installing priiloader i was able to configure and access system menu

fringe harbor Mar 8, 2023, 5:34 AM

#

Oh yay

tepid epoch Mar 8, 2023, 5:34 AM

#

so now imma install letterbomb

ripe wasp Mar 8, 2023, 5:34 AM

#

No

#

You already have

fringe harbor Mar 8, 2023, 5:35 AM

#

Letterbomb just launches HackMii Installer to install Bootmii and Homebrew Channel

ripe wasp Mar 8, 2023, 5:35 AM

#

Letterbomb is the exploit, you used preloader to do this

tepid epoch Mar 8, 2023, 5:35 AM

#

oh got it

fringe harbor Mar 8, 2023, 5:35 AM

#

@tepid epoch did u install Bootmii?

#

You should take a NAND backup

ripe wasp Mar 8, 2023, 5:36 AM

#

tepid epoch just finished the nand backup

@fringe harbor

tepid epoch Mar 8, 2023, 5:36 AM

#

yup

fringe harbor Mar 8, 2023, 5:36 AM

#

O reading is hard

ripe wasp Mar 8, 2023, 5:36 AM

#

I recommend doing another one with it working as intended though

#

If you restore the old one you may be semibricked again

fringe harbor Mar 8, 2023, 5:36 AM

#

Makes sense

ripe wasp Mar 8, 2023, 5:37 AM

#

Since it'll restore preloader and not priiloader

tepid epoch Mar 8, 2023, 5:37 AM

#

so i should go to hackmii again and ask for a secondary backup for nand files?

ripe wasp Mar 8, 2023, 5:37 AM

#

No

tepid epoch Mar 8, 2023, 5:38 AM

#

to bootmi

ripe wasp Mar 8, 2023, 5:38 AM

#

Launch HBC, tap the home button, and hit "Launch BootMii"

tepid epoch Mar 8, 2023, 5:39 AM

#

done, so now i go to the backup screen as the first time i did?

ripe wasp Mar 8, 2023, 5:40 AM

#

Yep

#

Wait

#

Did you take the old backup off first

tepid epoch Mar 8, 2023, 5:40 AM

#

yeah i have the files copied in HDD

#

also removed them from SD after doing this

ripe wasp Mar 8, 2023, 5:41 AM

#

Okay then yeah do what you did last time

tepid epoch Mar 8, 2023, 5:41 AM

#

alrgiht immma have a small nao while it finishes zzzzz

#

nap

ripe wasp Mar 8, 2023, 5:42 AM

Still surprised going from pre-prii fixed sysmenu tbh

fringe harbor Mar 8, 2023, 5:43 AM

same

tepid epoch Mar 8, 2023, 5:43 AM

#

I though this console was RIP, you know, since after formatting it we should had the system menu again

#

few questions, after this backup
am i safe now to start installing more apps in SD?

and i was at panic all the time just to not brick this wii

ripe wasp Mar 8, 2023, 5:51 AM

#

Tbf if you dont do dumb shit (like K-keying on non K-Wiis or dev menuing shit for instance) and follow reputable sources, you usually wont have issues

#

Mainly having brick protection, had the last owner not had preloader youd probably be in a different boat

#

tepid epoch I was told that this https://es.aliexpress.com/item/926684756.html + components ...

That will just convert component to HDMI. The Wii will output 480i/480p, so you'll be sending a 480i/480p signal to the TV over HDMI.

#

Hopefully your TV supports 480i and 480p over HDMI. Not all displays do

#

I know mine doesn't support 480i over HDMI

tepid epoch Mar 8, 2023, 3:30 PM

So my tv doesnt support components, if i want to have 480p i should get a device like this so i pass 480p signal over HDMi?

@tepid epoch
To help troubleshoot your issue please run Syscheck and test all IOS on your Wii by following this guide:
https://wii.guide/syscheck

When it's done it will generate and display a syscheck.csv file.

If you have an SD, power down the Wii and insert the SD into a PC. Drag and drop the syscheck.csv file from the root of your SD into chat.

If you don't have an SD, you might get an error. Just continue until the report is displayed. You will need to upload the report and link the URL to chat or take photos of the entire report.

@tepid epoch don't u already have the HBC

#

You don't need to do the exploit with a 2gb SD if u already have the HBC lol

lol

#

just take the boot.dol or boot.elf and put it inside sd:/apps/HackMii/

#

Then launch HackMii Installer thru HBC to install Bootmii to IOS (and boot2 if it lets you)

#

You already have HBC 1.1.2 so no need to install HBC again

#

But idk what your bootmii version is

#

Does HBC have an SDHC module built in?

Then continue following the guide

Whatever IOS it uses does I believe

#

So IOS58

toxic locust Mar 10, 2023, 1:24 AM

#

ios 58 is what makes hbc use usb tho

golden kindle Mar 10, 2023, 1:24 AM

#

fringe harbor just take the boot.dol or boot.elf and put it inside `sd:/apps/HackMii/`

you mean the boot.elf that was created by the wiizard, right?

fringe harbor Mar 10, 2023, 1:26 AM

#

#

Should be on the root of SD
