Hacking Wii Shop and IOS51 installer Guide

[cowboys4life22]

Hello all

I have a question, I just updated to the new loader, but was interested in accessing the wii shop. When I goto it, tells me to goto wii settings and update, which I wont be doing. I know about musers wii shop fix, and was wondering if I can install it with the .3 loader already installed. No one has answered this question yet, and would really appreciate some sort of answer. I might be a noobie here, but I have been around the block and understand all the hacking stuff. Thanks in advance.

yes you can just use the homebrew channel to load up the patch.

I used Tona's one and it worked well and I can get into the shop channel now, but I'd thought they were changing Wii Points to Nintendo Points with this update?

I'm also curious to know if installing this will prevent future games from trying to update my Wii? For instance, Animal Crossing will likely have this update on the disc.

If not, is there a way to stop retail games from auto-updating?

Without a Internet connection, none of this should matter.

You don't need it to access the Wii Shop.

im saying for the installation of ios
nvm

I stupidly remembered that I had a USB dock charger connected to my machine this morning, so I disconnected this and tried again. Unfortunately still no luck installing the shop update. No matter what I do, it always stalls at 8/18 with the same "error making http address" error that Prince Valmont mentioned.

It makes me wonder if this is a networking issue, but why does it always stall at THAT point? I'm confused... =/

I had a problem like that as well - i had to re-install using the ios51 again and it worked - if the ios51 has an install issue you cante move on to the shop channel - try that part again and see how you get on - then try shop channel again - should fix it .

Tried this, tried so many combinations of cIOS 5 (Tona's), IOS51 and the Shop Channel update (tried both Muzer's and Tona's) that it's enough to make my head spin; no matter what I can never get the Shop Channel update finished. It will ALWAYS crash out with the same HTTP request error, though it lacks any consistancy. Most of the time it will crash out on 8/18, but I've had it on 3, 4, 6, 7 and there even WAS one time I got past 8 and up to 11, but the same end result.

I get the feeling this might be linked to the quality of my Internet connection, because the volatile nature of this problem doesn't add up to be a coding issue. I'm on ADSL2+ at 24mbps, but I live in an apartment building and my connection has been a little fickle lately. If one of the writers could give me some insight into what I'm doing wrong or anything I need to change, I'd be forever grateful. I don't particulary wanna spend $500 AUS buying an NTSC Wii.

I had to try mine about 10 times to get it going to be honest - kept getting that error as well - its very frustrating i know. I was also on a bad connection but im not sure if that was the issue.
Maybe it was co-incidental , but i was skipping the IOS51 install each time as i had assumed it was in already so i skipped that , but the first time i used tona's (after much trying) and said yes to everything again it all worked fine.

It may not help you at all , but its how mine worked so i said id share - best of luck getting this going.

the modified shop channel and ios51 working on PAL wii?

 

[Fyuusii]

I got up to 18/18 twice last night and it still crashed out

.

Seriously getting pissed off here.

 

[TyrianCubed]

hey guys I have already installed Muzer's v1 and it seems Tona's version is better and I'd like to install it...should I uninstall Muzer's v1 first or I can simply install Tuna's over it?
In case I have to uninstall, what titles do I have to erase?
IOS51 seems obvious, but what about the shop channel update?

thanks!

So I have this installed and it works great! Just wondering: Does my Wii think that it's updated now, or will it still try to update if I allow it?

I want to know the same thing still wasn't anwsered

In the sense of Wiishop then yeah it believes you have updated, so it wont prompt you.
You can still update officially though....haha

 

[minos55]

what about if a game comes out with this update will it count ass being updated or will the game want to update the wii

 

[TyrianCubed]

I was installing this update on a friend's Wii and I had a heck of a hard time getting this to work. It always crashed with some http problems or other weird errors. In the end I was able to install IOS51 using Muzer's installer v2 and the shop channel update using Tona's installer (after skipping the IOS51 from that one). It was so frustrating!
Isn't there a way to have offline installations, like with Wiigator's cIOS?

 

[djtaz]

I was only thinking the same thing myself - need to find where the files are for this and get them and add to the zip

Just to update, I installed this and then added some points and downloaded a song on World Tour patched. Everything worked great. I'll be using the remaining points for target toss pro on monday. If someone can link me to a place on how to dump vc games into wads, i'd be happy to give back to the great community on here.

So, today I wanted my Shop-Channel up-to-date (And yes, I realy need that!!). First, I tried Tonas Installer...didn't work. Then I tried Muzers one (or two

)...IOS51 installed without a problem...but the Shop Channel always fails...(Code Dump, can not download the whole Channel, http-Error, etc...always different errors...).

So, can somebody say me how can I update the Shop-Channel? I'm on a PAL 3.2E, and will stay there...what about updating-by-hand? Would this be possible?

So please...help me...Many Thanks in Advance...
