Str2hax not working

[heavy grotto]

IDK I lost hop

Hey @radiant lily do this work

[radiant lily]

yes

oh wait

no i don't think bro

[radiant lily]

that's memory stick from sony, it's for their camera

it's not SD

[heavy grotto]

Oh

Got jt

[heavy grotto]

Finnnaly

[elder fern]

👀

I would use the 2 GB one

now hopefully a store can sell just the adapter

[heavy grotto]

Ye

Imagine after all this I couldn't find an adapter

[shrewd holly]

what's the problem with the ubuntu

i'm uwuntu expert

[heavy grotto]

Hey guyes .. another question until I find the adapter

My wii remote gets charging by a usb cable

But now it doesn't get charged

Anyone know why ?

The light doesn't even enlight

[elder fern]

a stock remote doesn't have rechargable batteries...

is it fitted with an aftermarket rechargable battery?

[heavy grotto]

Let me show you the pic

[elder fern]

definitely aftermarket then

maybe check if the charger itself is working

[heavy grotto]

As you see it's a usb cable

I usually put it in the wii

[elder fern]

do you have a USB wall adapter

[heavy grotto]

Tried also with my phone charger

[heavy grotto]

What is this

[elder fern]

a phone charger

but i guess if that didn't work... hmm

[heavy grotto]

Ye tried that .. still didn't work

The light didn't even work

You understand ?

[elder fern]

yes

my intuition suspects that the rechargable batteries have died in and of themselves

[heavy grotto]

But

Even if they .. the light should work ?

[elder fern]

i'm not sure

[heavy grotto]

Any suggestions ?
@shrewd holly
@radiant lily

[shrewd holly]

Got an sd card?

No?

Well

Try to boot Bubuntu again

[heavy grotto]

Not about this

[shrewd holly]

Boot ubunut

ubuntu*

[heavy grotto]

This

[heavy grotto]

I got sd card .. I just need adapter I will try get it as soon as possible

[shrewd holly]

Sorry I have the OG remote

Not even an MotionPlus one

[heavy grotto]

You just use Normal batteries?

[shrewd holly]

Ye

[heavy grotto]

Dam

@gleaming fern . Suggestions?

[shrewd holly]

Just use normal ones bro

[heavy grotto]

How much time does it continue

Because it doesn't stay long at me

[shrewd holly]

Depends

On how long are you playin

[heavy grotto]

Like Average

If we said 3 hr/day

[shrewd holly]

Hmmmmmmm

I have one my Wiimote at 2 lines now

[heavy grotto]

?

[shrewd holly]

Charge lines
I forgor this word

[heavy grotto]

How long u play and it stays with you ?

[shrewd holly]

I play I think 1 hour a day

And it is with me for a week I think

[heavy grotto]

Oh

[shrewd holly]

It depends

Maybe 30 minutes

[heavy grotto]

Not so bad

[shrewd holly]

Like 0.5 hour - 1 hour

[heavy grotto]

I think if my batteries didn't stay for long I will use a ps3 controller

[shrewd holly]

Bro 💀

[heavy grotto]

🤓🌚

[radiant lily]

maybe broken charging cable

but as other said see if you can use normal battery

i use duracell and they last for like 1 month lol

[fading plinth]

Just use a battery that lasts a day of playtime that should do

[heavy grotto]

Woah ? How many time do u spend per day

[fading plinth]

Like 24 hour long sessions

[heavy grotto]

Bro it's expensive for me to get batteries every day lol

6 energizer battery is 120 Egp

[radiant lily]

well to be fair i don't play much, maybe 3 times a week for 1:30 / 2 hour

[radiant lily]

if you play much rechargable is better

[fading plinth]

But in our case just use standard batteries

These are usually in my battery jar (yes I'm so cheap I have a battery jar)

This is around 1,5k pounds but there are smaller packs

Wii card

Cheese and bread

Turned off standby connection till I get a phone charger where my wii is since I use WiFi hotspot

[heavy grotto]

Try arabic

[fading plinth]

He got cheese and bread tho

Scott pilgram vs Wii no ma

[fading plinth]

https://youtu.be/TpMI4n4HQFc?si=In7nz5chY-Ep2xcu I don't think he feel good

[shrewd holly]

У меня есть хлеб и сыр.

translate that

[fading plinth]

That's the same fuckin thing

[fading plinth]

Wait

Try and boot priiloader

If it is on

Turn off block disc and Internet updates

Update and pray to Allah it doesn't brick the wii

Or use a disc over 2012 to update if Internet doesn't work

Then use wilbrand, letterbomb, Bluebomb, or STR2

Wait

Am stupid

Use Bluebomb or STR2 unless you find an adapter

[radiant lily]

you can't update it, he needs to reinstall system menu 3.4 first

[heavy grotto]

I spent 2 hours trying bluebomb .. it didn't work

I will just wait until
24/1 comes a friend might get me an sd adapter on that day

[radiant lily]

why are you still trying to hack the wii instead of reinstalling the menu, updating it and continue from there?

[radiant lily]

^

[heavy grotto]

And .. this need sd right ?

[radiant lily]

yes

forget about hacking the wii immediately with SD, not worth to stay on 3.4, it's better to fix the update problem first

[heavy grotto]

Yep , so I still need to wait until i get sd card adapter

• that I heard reinstalling the menu

Might brick the wii

[radiant lily]

not if you download the correct file

[heavy grotto]

But there is still a chance

And if my wii bricked ? I can't fix it ?

[radiant lily]

well it's better to reinstall it than update unofficially, you have much higher chance to brick with updating unofficially

[radiant lily]

what's your Wii serial number? if it has old Boot 1 you are protected and you can't brick from this operation

it's best to always use the official method to update

[heavy grotto]

I will check 1 sec

But how to know if it has old boot 1?

[radiant lily]

you can check based on the serial number, and also if you know when the wii was bought

and when you have the SD, i will tell you how to do it

[heavy grotto]

Nope I don't really know when that wii was bought but let me check serial nimr

[radiant lily]

👍

[radiant lily]

LEH26 probably incompatible

[heavy grotto]

Doesn't have boot 1?

[radiant lily]

it probably doesn't have the old version, well i will make you check anyway in the hackmii installer

[heavy grotto]

Alr

So when I get sd adapter I just hide wilbrand?

[radiant lily]

when you get the sd adapter download Bannerbomb exploit, load Hackmii Installer and check if you can install Bootmii in boot2 or not

[heavy grotto]

Ok. I will @ you when I'm ready

[fading plinth]

Let us know 24/1/24 alr

We'll guide ig

[fading plinth]

Yoooo I downloaded CTGPR

[heavy grotto]

Cool

[fading plinth]

Wait

Do you have a early 3ds? (2DS, 3DS, 3DS XL.)

[heavy grotto]

Nope

[hearty atlas]

wait

you can also use bannerbomb

it works for 4.2X and below

https://wii.hacks.guide/bannerbomb

[gleaming fern]

they're on 3.4 i think

[hearty atlas]

https://wii.hacks.guide/legacy-exploits#bannerbomb

[gleaming fern]

and sd card

sdhc no worky

[hearty atlas]

oh yeah

sdhc support was added in..?

[radiant lily]

no bro bannerbomb

[radiant lily]

4.0

[gleaming fern]

4.0

[hearty atlas]

ah

then yeah use letterbomb

[radiant lily]

bro

[hearty atlas]

but its weird that updating gives error 32004

[radiant lily]

3.4 letterbomb?

[hearty atlas]

wait mb

[radiant lily]

it's spoof

[gleaming fern]

xd

[hearty atlas]

i cant type 😭

[heavy grotto]

Lol

[heavy grotto]

I wanted to ask @radiant lily

For an example if i wanted to use a ps3 controller on a game that needs motion plus
Like : red steel / wii sports resort etc...

Will it work ?

[radiant lily]

probably not

[elder fern]

no, that wouldn’t work

you would need either the Wii MotionPlus accessory or a Wii remote with it built in

[radiant lily]

just use wii remote

[heavy grotto]

I just has 1 motion plus adapter. . and ( after modding wii ) I wanted to play with my brother of friend , without buying another but ah . Alr

[radiant lily]

ah that's a problem

you need another unfortunately

[heavy grotto]

Ye maybe I will just play online

[lusty palm]

unrelated

[radiant lily]

nobody cares

[lusty palm]

noted

[heavy grotto]

Hey bro .. i am confused @radiant lily

Because I saw an sd adapter wrote on it "hc" so it will run only hc or what ?

[radiant lily]

Micro SD to normal SD adapter will work with any SD card type brother

don't worry about it, it's good

[shrewd holly]

[hearty atlas]

wahoo

[shrewd holly]

@heavy grotto How's it going?

Long time no see

This thread is everlasting

[fading plinth]

Wake up big boi it 24/1@heavy grotto

@heavy grotto big boi wake up

@heavy grotto your fone linging big boi

[jovial crypt]

@heavy grotto wakey wakey we need update!1!11!1!11 /s

[fading plinth]

@heavy grotto ay it's 8 for you give update (just like what your Wii can't do)

Wakey wakey eg an bakery!!!!1!1!!1!1!!1!1!1!1!!1!1!1!!1!11!!1!!!!

[fading plinth]

Egg and bakery.

[heavy grotto]

Yo everyone , well 🥲 I need to wait 1-2 days cuz I couldn't get the adapter until now sadly

[shrewd holly]

update 4.4

[elder fern]

there is no 4.4 update

also I realize if the version number of the system menu is likely spoofed like someone here said, I would recommend not trying to update it just yet

instead once the Homebrew Channel, BootMii, and priiloader are installed, I would suggest running SysCheck and sending the results

[radiant lily]

why install all these things if they are going to get deleted

just launch your homebrew by placing the boot.elf on the root of sd lol

[elder fern]

well idk

I just haven’t run homebrew directly from an exploit

the payload for me is usually the HackMii installer

[radiant lily]

i don't see what the problem is doing it

[elder fern]

what the problem for what is?

[elder fern]

I don’t disagree that there’s nothing wrong with this strategy - I’ve just never done it before myself

[radiant lily]

you can use it a lot of times

for example to recover bricks without priiloader

theme mail banner etc...

just smash stack and boot.elf (of either hackmii to go in HBC or wii mod lite to uninstall whatever wad caused the brick)

[elder fern]

read what it says at the top

it’s humourous content and doesn’t actually exist

[radiant lily]

he knows, he just sent as a joke

[shrewd holly]

did you look at the image

[elder fern]

yes I did

[radiant lily]

xd

[heavy grotto]

Can't I run the sd without adapter 🙂

I went 4 stores today trying to find an adapter and I couldn't

[fading plinth]

In the US they sell them but with micro SD

[fading plinth]

Get a network adapter and ETHERNET cable if you want to use Wiimmfi while you're at it

Helps with faster connection

[fading plinth]

I'm so close to funky Kong

[heavy grotto]

Ye .. I can't find it without the sd

[lusty palm]

just buy one online

[heavy grotto]

Too expensive dam

[heavy grotto]

@radiant lily

Barroo in ready

@fading plinth

FINNANAAALYYY @elder fern

So help

[elder fern]

you got the adapter?

alright, Wilbrand time if so

[heavy grotto]

Ok

[elder fern]

[gleaming fern]

There is another too

Which I use?

[gleaming fern]

not really, internet very slow right now

[heavy grotto]

Oh

Well what I can see is

103249

[elder fern]

I think that says “IOS 249”

[heavy grotto]

Oh ye ye you right

Ios 90 not available

[gleaming fern]

ios249...... try it

[heavy grotto]

Only from 3 to 60
And 249 and 250 and 251

Which one?

[elder fern]

that’s a custom IOS though

I’m not sure installing a system menu there will work(?)

but what do I know

[gleaming fern]

yes we need that

wish I was on my own cell data rn instead of my dad's

[heavy grotto]

So which ? @gleaming fern

[elder fern]

I’ll just leave you to it because I’m not really sure

[heavy grotto]

[heavy grotto]

[gleaming fern]

[heavy grotto]

Done

Damn

FINNALY

THE HOMBREW

[gleaming fern]

the homebrew

🍺

[heavy grotto]

So I do an update?

From the wii settings?

[gleaming fern]

ehh not really

https://wii.hacks.guide/update

[heavy grotto]

Oh allr

I will do tommorow I need to sleep

[elder fern]

okay before you do that

there is one more homebrew app you should run to check the original region of your Wii

because although yours says it’s in region E, if it isn’t and you install an out of region system menu you could cause a semibrick

https://oscwii.org/library/app/CheckRegion

[gleaming fern]

should just run syscheck tbh

[elder fern]

that works too I guess

it would say a lot more as well

[heavy grotto]

How to install it ?

[elder fern]

so, you have the homebrew channel installed now?

you’ll need to take out your SD card

https://oscwii.org/library/app/SysCheckME

download the Zip and copy the contents to the “apps” folder

[heavy grotto]

In the sd ? Then ?

[elder fern]

yes

[heavy grotto]

Then what

[elder fern]

put it back into your Wii, open the homebrew channel

and run SysCheck

[heavy grotto]

Alr

I will do it tomorrow

[fading plinth]

We'll prob stay here if you need anything. Enjoy the brew.@heavy grotto

[shell spindle]

Truly the Wii journey of all time

[radiant lily]

i wasn't online, did you reinstall sys menu?

[heavy grotto]

Oh I didn't reinstall it ? Pikachu told me to install ios58.wad

And then I installed HOMBREW but without the hackmii

Now I need to update

[radiant lily]

yes that's a way to get homebrew channel without the official installer, but the official update still won't work until you reinstall the system menu

[heavy grotto]

I will follow this tutorial

[heavy grotto]

This

Is it good?

[radiant lily]

that's unofficial update method

[heavy grotto]

Ye ? Bad?

I will start now syscheck modmii

[radiant lily]

i wouldn't use it

[heavy grotto]

Oh

Can you guide me then please?

[radiant lily]

well myself i usually try to fix the problem which prevents the update from installing

[radiant lily]

if you can send me a syscheck and we will go from there

[heavy grotto]

Ye sure , just mins

[radiant lily]

do you know how to do it already?

since you have ios 58 Syscheck HDE should run if not just use the normal one

[heavy grotto]

Ye running it now

It said failed for ios58

[radiant lily]

yea skip that we don't care about it

[heavy grotto]

What to do

[radiant lily]

use this version instead:
https://wiibrew.org/w/images/a/a7/SysCheck162.zip

go to your SD:\apps and make a folder "syscheck" then extract the files of the Zip archive into it

[heavy grotto]

Downloading

Oops

Same error

[radiant lily]

send screenshot

[heavy grotto]

I can't get good one because it fastly close

[radiant lily]

yea it's how that program works

which IOS is giving you the TMD size issue?

IOS 58?

[heavy grotto]

80

[radiant lily]

80 ok

Your system menu is 3.4 right?

[heavy grotto]

Ye E

[radiant lily]

k

do you have wii mod lite on sd card?

[heavy grotto]

I have yawm

[radiant lily]

if i remember the syscheck from modmii has an option at the start that allows you to skip some IOS

go into that again and check

instead of choosing "all"

im gonna open my wii now

[heavy grotto]

Into what?

[radiant lily]

into the Syscheck Modmii

or did you delete it from sd card?

you can keep both of them in the /apps folder

as long as the name of the folder is different

[heavy grotto]

I did delete but I will just get it back one sec

[radiant lily]

yes and don't delete the version i gave you

[heavy grotto]

Ok

Ready now?

[radiant lily]

i checked on my Wii and you can only test IOS one by one

let's do it another way

[heavy grotto]

Ok

[radiant lily]

download wii mod lite from here: https://github.com/RiiConnect24/Wii-Mod-Lite/releases

[heavy grotto]

I checked the back of wii

And my wii region is europe 100%

[radiant lily]

and then go into the IOS option

[gleaming fern]

ah yes the failed to get stored tmd size error

[radiant lily]

yes that's good

[radiant lily]

and send a picture, it will look similar to this

[gleaming fern]

i have a tiny fix for this

it is a bit sketch

[heavy grotto]

Hey

[radiant lily]

yes

[radiant lily]

press IOS and send a picture

[radiant lily]

india way

[radiant lily]

ok it seems like you don't have IOS 80 installed

it's in white yes?

[heavy grotto]

Yes

I need to go for now ... Maybe in 2-3 hours I will be online hope you be online as well

[radiant lily]

see you later then

also you can try the sycheck version compiled by pikachu, as that won't error out on the tmd error, even though idk why you are getting it if ios 80 is not installed on your system

[heavy grotto]

Ye man I thought if I got sd it will be soooooo freaking easy but my wii is complicated

[radiant lily]

yes i know what you mean but we will fix it by reinstalling

[heavy grotto]

your on now?

[radiant lily]

im on now

[heavy grotto]

im downloading some games for the wii ... give me like an hour and i will be ready

[radiant lily]

i don't think i will be available in 1 hour, sorry

[heavy grotto]

oh .. when will you?

tommorow?

[radiant lily]

ye tomorrow

probably in the afternoon

[heavy grotto]

oh

can you tell me the instructions to do

? and i will try them

[radiant lily]

you need to go into NUS downloader, choose "pack wad" and then Database -> System -> System Menu -> 3.4E

make sure you choose the correct region

[heavy grotto]

alr

[radiant lily]

it will then download the .wad

you just install it and then you should be able to update officially without any problem

[heavy grotto]

ok i put it on sd

[radiant lily]

of course first make sure the version is 100% correct

like that it's exactly 3.4 and E

otherwise you will cause brick

[heavy grotto]

but please try to make me secured as possibe so if my wii bricked i can fix it

[heavy grotto]

alr

[heavy grotto]

oh

one question

[radiant lily]

did you try installing the bootmii as boot2?

[heavy grotto]

the hombrew will be uninstallede?

[heavy grotto]

nope

[radiant lily]

yes, well not homebrew channel but if u put any cios yea

[heavy grotto]

when i tried to open hackmii with wilbrand ... it just stucked

[radiant lily]

try to open with banner bomb

[heavy grotto]

bro im not 4

im 3.4e

[radiant lily]

bro

for 4 is letterbomb

[heavy grotto]

oh got it

[radiant lily]

banner bomb is different method

[heavy grotto]

got it got it

[radiant lily]

i sent you at first

wait im gonna try to find the link

[heavy grotto]

alr

[radiant lily]

follow this

https://bannerbomb.qoid.us/

[heavy grotto]

alr

so before i reinstall menu i do this?

[radiant lily]

yes first try to do this

and see if you can install bootmii in boot 2

if not reinstall system menu

bootmii as boot 2 would be deleted after the update anyway

[heavy grotto]

oh ok but it will make me secured if an error occured or something?

[radiant lily]

in the reinstall process yes

but your wii needs to be old to install it

[heavy grotto]

oh

i think it is

because it has gamecube

[radiant lily]

mine is May 2006 so good luck

[radiant lily]

from your serial number it looked to new

but try anyway

if you can, install it, if not well just reinstall it and screw it

[heavy grotto]

alr

hope it work i dont want it bricked

but if it bricked ? what is there any way

[radiant lily]

if it bricks you need to have bootmii as boot 2 to recover

[heavy grotto]

ye i mean

this senario

[radiant lily]

but it won't brick

[heavy grotto]

i couldnt have bootmii as boot 2

and i just reinstalled it

then it bricked>?

[heavy grotto]

alr man i really hope .. wish me good luck

[radiant lily]

if you don't and the reinstall goes wrong then it could brick, but even then it's not gonna happen if you choosed the correct system version

[radiant lily]

good luck brother

[heavy grotto]

if everything gone good and i reinstalled it ... i install hombrew same way i did before\

?

[radiant lily]

yes you reinstall with letterbomb

which is the method for 4.0

[heavy grotto]

ye got it

i dont do syscheck?

[radiant lily]

did you try the version pikachu sent you?

[heavy grotto]

not yet

but i mean i still need to?

[radiant lily]

maybe do that first and send the result

[heavy grotto]

oh so i need to wait for ya?

[radiant lily]

you can do it for safety but you shouldn't really need to, as from wii mod lite there was no IOS 80 already in the slot so 4.3 will work

[radiant lily]

you can run it now

it's easy

[heavy grotto]

ye after i run it it will tell me my wii region right ? if its like (usa) so????

[elder fern]

the original Wii region your console is, yes

[radiant lily]

yes but your wii is working fine with europe region so it's 100% from that

[heavy grotto]

sorry for that much questions 🥲 but i just want to make sure of everything

[heavy grotto]

ok

[radiant lily]

your serial number is also european, so it would really be strange for it to be from another region

[heavy grotto]

alr

[elder fern]

oh yeah is there a model number on the Wii itself

followed by something like “USA” or another country code

[radiant lily]

of course

it's how the serial begins with

LEH, LEM or LEF is EU

LU is USA

[heavy grotto]

ye i told him in the morning its eur so its not region changed

[elder fern]

got it

[radiant lily]

yes your reinstall should work 100% correctly

i already made it do to another person

[heavy grotto]

can i play any rom?? because i downloaded some usa ones?

[radiant lily]

i think the system menu version changing was done by starpatch but it's been too long to remember

[radiant lily]

use pal games not usa

[heavy grotto]

oof

[radiant lily]

as you might get video problems

[heavy grotto]

this wont work?

[radiant lily]

bro don't show what you are downloading 💀

[elder fern]

probably delete that screenshot since it has a URL in there

[radiant lily]

you will get ⚰️ from the server

[heavy grotto]

oops

deleted

but

the title is :

[radiant lily]

it's better that you use the european version of the game

yes i saw the title

[heavy grotto]

ALR

[radiant lily]

also do you plan on playing them from dvd, sd card or usb?

[heavy grotto]

usb .. i have 32 gb one

i will use usb loader gx

[radiant lily]

yes that will work

[heavy grotto]

hey bro you wanted me do all this with the ubuntu method 💀 @elder fern

[elder fern]

well

[radiant lily]

lmao

[elder fern]

you didn’t have an SD card at the time and since str2hax wasn’t working at the time, it was the only way I could see

[heavy grotto]

just kidding man .. im so thankful to you , you were trying to help with anything

[radiant lily]

i got my capture card working again, here is how wii mod lite looks with all the IOS's installed, since you don't have IOS 80 it means it will be installed normally by the nintendo update

[heavy grotto]

alr

wish me good all ❤️

[heavy grotto]

Hey

@radiant lily you there?

[radiant lily]

yes im still here for a bit

[heavy grotto]

I can install on boot2?

[radiant lily]

ye you can't install

[heavy grotto]

Oh ...

I will just take the risk and try reinstalling sys

[radiant lily]

yh you need to do that anyway

[radiant lily]

modding means risk, no risks = no modding 😉

[heavy grotto]

How I exit that

Hackmii installer

[radiant lily]

restart wii

or press continue and then exit

[radiant lily]

when i was little i used to mess so much with Wii and Xbox that at this point i learned with the hard way 😂

[heavy grotto]

Exited

[heavy grotto]

Damn man xbox 360 modding is a pain

[radiant lily]

good, now reinstall system menu wad and 🙏

[radiant lily]

well RGH is, drive flashing too on some models but not that hard to do

i also used the "cheap" way, with a pc and the Xbox dvd drive connected with Sata, Win XP and a janky DIY probe

Jtag is also easier, but still the modding process is a pain

[heavy grotto]

🔥 FIRE NOW

[heavy grotto]

Ye

[radiant lily]

Windows XP my beloved

[heavy grotto]

So pain with it too 😂

[radiant lily]

you should check out windows xp extended kernel

it allows to run many new program

even new Google Chrome

[heavy grotto]

You told me how to install that?

The wad

[radiant lily]

well just put it in the SD, open wii mod lite and install

and of course good luck 🙏

[heavy grotto]

YYEEES

DAAAMN THANKKKKKS MAAAAN 🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤓🤓

I restart wii ? @radiant lily

[radiant lily]

what is it saying now?

finished installing?

[heavy grotto]

It sayed done and I click A

[heavy grotto]

Ye

[radiant lily]

now press the home button

[heavy grotto]

And I back to choose wad menu

[radiant lily]

on wii remote

[heavy grotto]

It freezed

[radiant lily]

not back to homebrew channel?

[heavy grotto]

No

It freezed at choose wad menu

I can't do anything

[radiant lily]

oh well then restart the wii

since the wad finished installing

[heavy grotto]

Ok then

I try updateM

?

[radiant lily]

yes are you at the menu now?

[heavy grotto]

Ye

[radiant lily]

go and update normally, it will work 100%

it's going to take a long time because your Wii needs to download a lot of things but it will work without the error

[heavy grotto]

Oh

Will it over the

Gb's?

[radiant lily]

no it doesn't download anything in the SD card

[heavy grotto]

No no I mean

Because my
Wifi quota

[radiant lily]

oh no no

[heavy grotto]

So it's in mb's or gb's?

[radiant lily]

its mb

[heavy grotto]

Oh alr

I started updating now anyways

[radiant lily]

yes it should update you to 4.3, then just reinstall Homebrew with Letterbomb

[heavy grotto]

Is it normal that the blue line doesn't move ?

[radiant lily]

yh completely normal

it takes a bit to do the first move

do not power off the wii, just let it do the update

[heavy grotto]

Got it

Ohh boy

Shit

[radiant lily]

ah this is a problem with your internet

[heavy grotto]

Oh

[radiant lily]

try to run a connection test in the internet settings

check if it works

if not move your wii closer to the modem

restart it and try again

[heavy grotto]

Ok

Oof same error

[radiant lily]

mhm

i wonder if the intendo update server can no longer communicate with version 3.4

[radiant lily]

did you try to do a connection test first?

and set the connection DNS to primary: 8.8.8.8 and secondary: 8.8.4.4

[heavy grotto]

Ye it said it worked good want to perform an update?

[heavy grotto]

Ok

[heavy grotto]

Maybe ? But I don't really think

[radiant lily]

same, because i did this method with a person on menu 4.1 and it worked fine

did you install priiloader?

[heavy grotto]

Nope

[radiant lily]

mhm well do you have any wii game?

on disk

[heavy grotto]

Nope

[radiant lily]

well then we can try to update unofficially to 4.1, and then do an official update to 4.3

[heavy grotto]

I think If I just updated to 4.1 I won't update to 4.3 i don't really think I need it ?

Lol wii looped at testing connection.....

[radiant lily]

lol

[radiant lily]

4.3 includes every ios to work with all games

but you can live without it if you install the ios manually

[heavy grotto]

I will restart my wii it looped damn

[radiant lily]

yea restart it

also to update to 4.1 you first need to install its IOS

[heavy grotto]

AHHHHH ... Damn it man 🥲

3.4 can't play any game? Even if installed the ios's?

[radiant lily]

actually you can install all the ios's and keep 3.4, but it will be a pain in the ass to do it

[heavy grotto]

Maybe .. I can just install ios's until 4.1

Will it be easier?

[radiant lily]

it's easier to install IOS 60 v6174 (used by menu 4.1), then install sys menu 4.1E and try to do the update again

that will download everything

[heavy grotto]

Well .. can't I just install ios 60 v6174
Without installing sys menu 4.1?

And still play games

[radiant lily]

in NUS downloader get IOS 60 v6174, NOT v6400, that will brick the Wii

[heavy grotto]

Note " same error came again "

[radiant lily]

you would need to install all the ios the games need, and that are missing from ur wii

one by one

[heavy grotto]

Oof

Let me first do the ios , 60

[radiant lily]

yes, get version v6174

not v6400

it should be about 2MB in size

[heavy grotto]

Here we go

Added it to the sd

[radiant lily]

install from wii mod lite

[heavy grotto]

It's 1.86 mb

Ok

[radiant lily]

yes it's correct

[heavy grotto]

Ok done

Now ?

[radiant lily]

you installed it?

now go into the "IOS" option of wii mod lite

and send a picture

[heavy grotto]

Ok let me first restart wii

[radiant lily]

👍

[heavy grotto]

Ios 60 in cyan

Good ?

[radiant lily]

yes

[heavy grotto]

Ok what next

I'm back to wii menu

[radiant lily]

now download 4.1E .wad and install it

and 🙏 again

[heavy grotto]

No no man

I will just install all ios

I don't want to risk again

Just please tell me all ios's

[radiant lily]

4.1 will work because you have the ios 60 installed now so there is no problem in installing it

[heavy grotto]

🤕 sure

[radiant lily]

there is always the risk but still

your best way to not risk is to get cheap wii game

like recent one and update with it lol

[heavy grotto]

Oooffff

[heavy grotto]

Also

Ios 60 in cyan not green to just make sure

[radiant lily]

cyan means the IOS is not patched, so it's the stock version

but

[radiant lily]

^

[heavy grotto]

I can't

[radiant lily]

then gotta do it this way

did you download the 4.1E? make sure you got it correctly

[heavy grotto]

Ye I sent you the pic up u see it ?

I will start now 1 min

[radiant lily]

yes, i saw it

well if you use games only from usb loader you can even try to stay on 3.4, as they load from cIOS not standard IOS so it shouldn't be a problem if they are missing

[heavy grotto]

So

I cancel 4.1?

[radiant lily]

your choice really

you can even test a bit and if it works good for you then cancel the wad from sd

if it doesn't work good then go into wii mod lite and install it

[heavy grotto]

Oh

The 4.1 even stuck at downloading I don't know why

[radiant lily]

imagine nintendo update servers are just down

and you try to update normally tomorrow and it works

😂

[heavy grotto]

😂😂😂

Lmao

Is it really down?

[radiant lily]

idk but it might be since you tried to update and it didn't work

[heavy grotto]

4.1 is downloaded ☠️

I do it ?

[radiant lily]

well idk, if you want try, it should work, but you can also stay on 3.4 if it works good for you

this is the page for the error on nintendo website:
https://www.nintendo.co.uk/Support/Wii/Troubleshooting/Error-Codes/32002-636034.html

[heavy grotto]

Ye I saw the error

I will install the 4.1

[radiant lily]

[heavy grotto]

HOLLY SHIT YEAAAH

[radiant lily]

wait some time, maybe try updating again tomorrow

[radiant lily]

yeah, i gtg now

[heavy grotto]

🏴‍☠️ 😱

what did I just read?

[heavy grotto]

Thanks man

[heavy grotto]

But just a question @gleaming fern

Now I have just downloaded ios for 4.1 and 4.1 sys menu

I can play all games ??

• How can I get the channels that automatically installed after you do an update ?

[radiant lily]

games played through usb loader are not affected because they use cIOS

[heavy grotto]

Got it

So I downloaded some games

But when I extracted them

They were
.nkit.iso

[radiant lily]

i made you install 4.1 but your wii is still missing quite a bit of IOS that are used by disc games, but it's not really a problem, as if you get a game that requires an IOS that you don't have it will be automatically installed

[heavy grotto]

? Any solution I spent 10 gb on them

[heavy grotto]

Got it thx alot man

[radiant lily]

you can convert them to .wbfs with Wii Backup Manager

[heavy grotto]

Thhhhx alot I will try it

[radiant lily]

also it's completely safe to update the Wii from a game DVD or from online (if it magically works)

the only thing updating will do is remove some cIOS's, but you can reinstall them easily with Wii Mod Lite

[heavy grotto]

When I did some researches tommorow I saw that alot of people says you can't update officially anymore from nintendo server for wii

[radiant lily]

i can test and see if the update servers are still up, but they should be, so i don't know why you are getting that issue

it might be your modem firewall blocking the connection

[heavy grotto]

Maybe

[heavy grotto]

You know how to get the channels that automatically installed when updating?

[radiant lily]

wdym, what channels

[heavy grotto]

Internet channel
Everyone vote channel
Wii + Internet video
Etc...

I know it's weird question but 🤓 it makes nostalgia man

[radiant lily]

ik lol, well you should get the Internet channel only, the wii + internet video takes like 900 blocks of storage

you can download any channel you like from NUS Downloader

[heavy grotto]

It's safe right?

[radiant lily]

yes if you install on region (europe) channels, even off regions if you patch the system menu to allow off region stuff

[fading plinth]

Yeah

Canal MIIrame and check mii out are .U only unless you turn off region lock

Canal MIIrame means, "look at MII Channel" which is roughly translated to check mii out.

[radiant lily]

check mii out channel has pal version

it's mii contest channel

[fading plinth]

Ik

[fading plinth]

I'm convinced the see what you can do with the Internet and motionplus women are the same people

[heavy grotto]

Time to open a new thread

Or maybe I can continue here

[fading plinth]

You can continue @heavy grotto

[heavy grotto]

No prob at installing usb loader gx wad right? Note I'm 4.1E not 4.3

[radiant lily]

yes no problem, you can install the forwarder without any issue

[heavy grotto]

I'm going to install priloader too following "wii hacks guide " because I want to make my self protected as more as possible

Do I need to install any ios or something ?

• I would really thank everyone Contributed to help me in this journey

Because that wii were really really a history
Not only because I had it from very old but because it was my last dad's gift

[elder fern]

you should install priiloader

I don’t think it relies on a specific IOS

[heavy grotto]

Ye I just wanted to make sure

@radiant lily

[heavy grotto]

Check this

That means it need specific ios?

[elder fern]

no, it doesn’t

[radiant lily]

you need to have IOS 36 patched but i think you already had it so you can proceed with the install

[heavy grotto]

I have it but patched?

[radiant lily]

patched means it can do more stuff, such as accepting fake signature (trucha patch), nand access, etc...
You can check if it's patched if you open wii mod lite, and look at IOS section, if IOS 36 shows up in green then it's patched, if it shows up in Cyan it's not patched

[heavy grotto]

Oh what I do if it's not patched?

[radiant lily]

you patch with wii mod lite

[heavy grotto]

It's patched I saw it

Thx man I will install it

[radiant lily]

good, then you can proceed to priiloader install

[radiant lily]

no problem 👍

[gleaming fern]

you don't

that's if you don't have up to date hbc for whatever reason

[fading plinth]

Press a to install pl I think

[radiant lily]

new versions of priiloader installer use ahbprot?

ah yes, my bad

[heavy grotto]

Do I need specific ios or cios for installing the opera internet channel v1024 and for installing riiconnect?

[gleaming fern]

no

[heavy grotto]

HELL NO !

PLEASE ANYONE RESPOND @radiant lily @gleaming fern

I was trying to make an update officially

And it just finally made a little move after that it gave me error 32007 I clicked back menu

But it just back to priiloader

WHAT HAPPENED !

In priiloader says error booting sys menu

@elder fern

[radiant lily]

bro

[radiant lily]

disable block online updates in priiloader

and try to go into system menu again

maybe delete your internet settings, redo it and try to update again

[heavy grotto]

Oof

U see the pic ?

[radiant lily]

you unplugged SD from Wii?

[elder fern]

you’re missing the ini file on your SD card

[heavy grotto]

Yee

[radiant lily]

you need to keep it always for priiloader hacks

[heavy grotto]

I formated it 😫😫 too

[radiant lily]

bruh why 💀

did you save your nand backup at least?

[elder fern]

well you just deleted your NAND backup

[radiant lily]

eh he can remake it, not a big deal

[heavy grotto]

One min let me check my pc

But whyyyy I just was trying to update officially

[radiant lily]

because priiloader blocks updates by default

[heavy grotto]

Found it found it

[radiant lily]

you found nand backup?

well it's not required to put that on SD

[radiant lily]

also you need the SD as you had USB Loader anyway?

download at least wii mod lite, priiloader installer, usb loader and homebrew browser back on it

[heavy grotto]

No .. I just didn't format my sd so anything on it is there + I blocked now updated but still can't sys menu

[heavy grotto]

I've already everything now

What to do

I closed online updates but still

[radiant lily]

did you unblock updates or what? you destroyed system menu?

[radiant lily]

go into Homebrew channel

[heavy grotto]

I'm in

[radiant lily]

and reinstall IOS 60 + System Menu 4.1 with wii mod lite, or restore nand backup from BootMii

then when you exit wii mod lite, open priiloader, and install it

[heavy grotto]

I redownload ios 60?

[radiant lily]

actually only reinstall system menu (4.1) since ios 60 is working fine

then install priiloader

[heavy grotto]

But I already have it ?

[radiant lily]

priiloader gets uninstalled everytime you install new system menu

[radiant lily]

i can't see from this picture, ios 60 is fine?

there is IOS 80 on your system now

looks like it got downloaded from the update, but the update itself failed

[heavy grotto]

It just made a move then gave error 32007 and then when I clicked back menu it took me to priiloader

[heavy grotto]

It's in cyan but .. there is alot of red no in below u see ?

[radiant lily]

that's normal, it means IOS is not patched

[heavy grotto]

Oof

[heavy grotto]

Noooo 😫

[radiant lily]

i can't see nothing bro 💀

[heavy grotto]

Sending another

[radiant lily]

try to install again

[heavy grotto]

Still

[radiant lily]

wtf

idk maybe uninstall it and reinstall?

[heavy grotto]

Bro u sure u see this

[radiant lily]

is it cyan?

i can't see

[heavy grotto]

No if I uninstalled it it will remove priiloader and if something happened It will be impossible to fix

[heavy grotto]

Yes but the errors

[radiant lily]

bro it's not errors

it just means there are no patches on that IOS

[heavy grotto]

Oh

So what should I do

Try to install ios 60 again?

[radiant lily]

you know, there is a program that can make a fresh nand for your wii, it would look like a new wii out from the factory

[heavy grotto]

Safe 100%?

[radiant lily]

yes

[radiant lily]

the only problem is that you can't restore the NAND backup without a Gamecube controller

because your Wii doesn't have bootmii as boot2

[heavy grotto]

Oh
