So yesterday, I started my console, everything was fine. I started the internet explorer, fine.
But when I got inside the IE, that's when it started to bug. Wherever I taped on the screen, it opened the menu where I can see the tabs that are currently opened. I think it's the second button from the left on the bottom menu.
So I restarted the console by holding on the power button on the gamepad. and when I started it back on, I couldn't do anything. Buttons and touch screen dont work anymore. It stays to the quick menu.
I can't do anything anymore :(

Does anyone can help me please?
I tryed to unplug completly the console, but it didn't work.
Also, I use loadiine, but I don't know if it could be the cause.
Thanks for helping

Well don't you think is a problem? You can't use your game pad. Send it to nintendo or buy a new one, unless you can fix it yourself.

DO some test on it, Take the battery out, clean the contacts and try again, try running it without battery and use charger, get close or far away from the console. Turn it on or off a few times. Use a wii u pro controller.

And loadiine won't effct your game pad, you can send it to nintendo. BESIDES, how would nintendo detect you used Loadiine? Is a web exploit that is triggered by files on sd card. It doesn't alter system data internally, only ram data.

well, i dont.
Also, I don't think I can send it to nintendo, as stated in my OP, I use Loadiine
You don't have to send them the whole console. Just the GamePad.
Also, all of your Loadiine data is stored on the SD Card, and Loadiine works on 5.5.1, so you're fine either way.

Over use? My wii is on 24 hours a day, and is not even doing anything, If it had like a sleep function like mobile tablets or pc does, that would be nice. :)
Well, you can do a "Sleep Mode". (Note the bold quotation marks.)
  1. Turn off your TV.
  2. Turn off the display of your GamePad: HOME Menu -> Controller Settings -> Turn Off Display.

  • No one is chatting at the moment.
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    @Sicklyboy I am wanting to fully change the game and bend it to my will lol. I would like to eventually have the ability to add more characters, enemies, even have a completely different story if i wanted. I already have the ability to change the tilemaps in the US version, so I can basically make my own map and warp to it in game - so I'm pretty far into it!
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I really would like to make a hack that I would enjoy playing, and maybe other people would too. swapping to the EU version would also mean my US friends could not legally play it
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I am definitely considering porting over some of the EU features without using the actual ROM itself, tbh that would probably be the best way to go about it... but i'm sad that the voice acting is so.... not good on the US version. May not be a way around that though
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I appreciate the insight!
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @TwoSpikedHands just switch, all the knowledge you learned still applies and most of the code and assets should be the same anyway
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    and realistically they wouldn't

    be able to play it legally anyway since they need a ROM and they probably don't have the means to dump it themselves
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    why the shit does the shitbox randomly insert newlines in my messages
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It does that when I edit a post.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It inserts a newline in a random spot.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    never had that i don't think
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    do y'all think having an sd card that has a write speed of 700kb/s is a bad idea?
    trying to restore emunand rn but it's taking ages... (also when I finished the first time hekate decided to delete all my fucking files :wacko:)
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @Karma177 that sd card is 100% faulty so yes, its a bad idea
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    even the slowest non-sdhc sd cards are a few MB/s
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    @The Real Jdbye it hasn't given me any error trying to write things on it so I don't really think it's faulty (pasted 40/50gb+ folders and no write errors)
  • DinohScene @ DinohScene:
    run h2testw on it

  • DinohScene @ DinohScene:
    when SD cards/microSD write speeds drop below a meg a sec, they're usually on the verge of dying

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Samsung SD format can sometimes fix them too
  • Purple_Heart @ Purple_Heart:
    yes looks like an faulty sd
  • Purple_Heart @ Purple_Heart:
    @Psionic Roshambo i may try that with my dead sd cards

    It's always worth a shot
