Hacking Bannerbomb not working, what now?

G0dLiKe · Sep 25, 2009

I´ve got a friends Wii for modding and as he said it has been faulty I initialised the system to start over new.

Now when I insert the SD with bannerbomb, it loads fine and then says no vulnerable IOS found.

As there is no HBC on this Wii I am pretty out of info what to do now...

BootMii is v 0.3
Wii is 4.1E

G0dLiKe · Sep 25, 2009

Forgot to mention, preloader 0.29 is installed and working

middeloni · Sep 25, 2009

erm.. try to use an older hackmii installer? the first would be good enough just for HBC
good luck

has your friend ever (maybe not knowingly) istalled Cioscorp because that is the main reason the bootmii installer will not start...

G0dLiKe · Sep 25, 2009

AFAIK yes, that is possible.

cioscorp has been installed.

Update to 4.1, or do it again, it wil restore your IOS.

FenrirWolf · Sep 25, 2009

Or install a normal IOS36 or something and that should do the trick.

I tried to update to 4.1 via Nintendo but as I am on 4.1 already, it says there is no update for your Wii.

Still the no vulnerable IOS error.

Use nus downloader for all your friend's ios's install them as wad's and then try bootmii again. Usually the only ios that u have to install is the ios 36, this should be enough. But to completely remove cioscorp u should install all wad's... Good luck

Upddating your wii with 4.1e wont do the trick because it wont install a new ios 36

Just by using preloader and the IOS36.wad from NUS?

use wad manager to install "IOS36-64-v3094.wad" you would get from NUSD

then you will have vulnerable IOS to install HBC

how can I access wad manager when I dont have HBC? Preloader? how?

FenrirWolf · Sep 25, 2009

Can't Preloader launch applications?

And what was the freakin' point of getting rid of the HBC anyway? Even if you're "starting over" a new HBC will work exactly the same as an old one.

G0dLiKe · Sep 25, 2009

Well, I was thinking $hit this isnt working, and remembering somewhere I´ve read, go update, then initialise and start over....

How can I get this working?

This is a pretty damn situation...

Thanks for your help anyways.

FenrirWolf · Sep 25, 2009

Right. I'd help more, but I've never used preloader and so have a limited understanding of how it does things. But I'd imagine it has some way to autoboot a Wad Manager or something.

G0dLiKe · Sep 25, 2009

Any more advice here?

Would be awesome if you can help me gettin this one solved.

put wadmanager.dol or something else on the root and go in preloader to install/launch file, select it and press 1

G0dLiKe · Sep 25, 2009

I´ve managed to install wadmanager via preloader but it freezes when i start it. dang....

G0dLiKe · Sep 25, 2009

Still no way for me to start wadmanager, it keeps freezing when started.

Anyone?

urherenow · Sep 25, 2009

formatting is what removed HBC.
You need to launch a newer wad manager or a moded wadmanager. Version 1.5 should ask you which IOS to use and I'm thinking you have a 249 in there. Wad manager using IOS 249 should work for all of your WAD files.

if not... have you tried launching DoP-IOS from preloader? I forgot if preloader launches boot.elf, boot.dol, or lets you choose, but you can rename the file to get it to run. If you do, download IOS 36 and install it without patching, and the hackmii installer should work fine after that...
