Transfer the channels to the sd card? IIRC settings? Your gonna have to elaborate. I have NO idea how to do that.
Okay, go to the settings and see if there is an option to transfer channels to the SD card.

If there isn't, then you may just click on SD icon in lower left hand corner of the home screen.

It's been too long so I can't remember which one will work.

Btw, IIRC means "If I recall correctly"

Sorry guys.
I hope they do not bother, but at the beginning of the thread I realized that they did not include the method through the payload https://wii.guide/flashhax.html
Load the exploit through that web to install the HBCH.
I know it is known to everyone but for those who start it can be useful.

flashhax has been released few weeks ago.
this thread is YEARS old, how would you expect the thread creator to know about a non released method?

it's not that they "did not include", it's just that the thread is old and "it didn't exist".

there's nothing to update, except Priiloader if you want, but for which reason ? don't you have 0.7? is it broken or not working ? Why fix if not broken ? 0.8 doesn't provide new features, why update?
all other things are already up to date.
only the "disc backup" is not to my liking, as it patches lot of IOS for no reason.

attention : newer is NOT better.
the versions provided in this guide are good, don't update.

even if it's an old thread, just for historical record for anyone reading it.


WiiU vWii too, accept fat32.
of course not WiiU mode, injects don't work with usb.

not even needed.
/games/whatever you want/game.iso
if there's no TitleID in the folder, it will open the iso header to get it. of course, it's faster to put it in the folder (prevent opening all isos files one by one).

I clarify that it is a suggestion ... it is not a claim.
I will blame the Google translator if it was read wrong but I insist it is a recommendation.
With more reason if you tell me that the thread is old, it deserves an upgrade, right?
Thanks for attention and believe me that at no time I wanted to be annoying.
Keep calm and "Tomate una piscola compadre"
Greetings friends

Hello everyone.
Thanks to Modmii Team for their auto-generated guides, I were able to made all my three 4.3J Wii's (2x boot2 compatible and 1 IOS based only) to become 4.1U. First of I used Letterbomb to get them softmodded, update their IOS (+cIOS236 install) using ModMii windows installer. Right after I use it to downgrade them to 4.1U. Everything is fine, but few questions remained:
###
-Is changing Wii region using Modmii software and installing IOS of the desired region (4.1U in my situation) will made "J" Wii to be like any "U" Wii you could bought at any store? I mean is there any restricton or remained flags that marks Wii original region as "J" even after region change? Maybe DVD-drive has some HW specific firmware inside or whatever. Or ARM CPU has some FW diffrences?
###
-How to make 4.1U (former 4.3J) to read all kind of licence discs? It can't read PAL or JAP discs I have. I don't have USA discs to check though. I tried some trick with Priiloader but it seems not going to work.
###
-May I upgrade them from 4.1U to 4.3U? Will they brick? There is no need in upgrading them though, but I need to know what will happen if I'll try it.

Maybe it is not a bad Idea to know which type of Modchip your Wii has.
Maybe it needs also an Firmware Update.

Which System Version has your Wii please ?

Thank you.:)

Hello.:)

thanks for the answer

That is maybe a little "difficult" because there is maybe no Way to really "detect" it from outside,so the only Way is to open the Wii and take a Look on the Mainboard/Drive/Drive Chip.:)

Are there any "unusal" Cables (or maybe Switches) on your Wii ?

Thank you.:)

thanks for waiting me, mi wii is in 4.3U and the way it uses to read the games is via an external DVD reader plugged via usb to the wii using the app disc reader.
The homebrew it uses is called Uloader v5.0C

so would be any problem if i try to hack it? thanks

yeah its just like the second image just another brand
Thank you.:)

Since I have honestly no Experience with such Setup,I can not really say yes or no to update/mod your Wii.

The only Thing I know is,the uLoader uses the hermes cIOSes for 222/223/224.
Before you do anything,
you should maybe make an sysCheck (you already have Homebrew/Homebrw Channel on the Wii ?)
to get sure,which Version of that hermes cIOSes your Wii actual uses to avoid Issues after an Update,if you want to use the External Drive.

If you have nothing on it,you can use the Letterbomb Exploit to install the Homebrew Channel (no hermes or d2x cIOS will be modified with this Step) and after that you can use the sysCheck Tool.

Then we can see,if you can use ModMii to Update your modded Wii.
(This has nothing to do with updating the System Menu,you are already on the latest Version and that is ok.)

Thank you.:)
