    Hacking Well, I feel sheepish...

    I presume I simply try to load the channels in order to test them at this point? That won't cause any issues? I ask this because it also plays into my decision to remove the old channels or not (if they just don't work I have no problem in leaving them on the Wii, but if they could do something...

    Hacking Well, I feel sheepish...

    Priiloader installed as per your directions Syscheck log here: Edit: I have not backed up the NAND again yet. auto You're telling me! I will be extremely frustrated if this thing now decides to give out in a short period of time... My only consolation would be if someone can learn what not...

    Hacking Well, I feel sheepish...

    To make sure I understand this - do I reinstall the Priiloader on the SD card? Do I completely redo the SD card? (when I was going to do the region change I only copied over the files I didn't already see on the SD card). Do I just use the guide for the priiloader install that was generated from...

    Hacking Well, I feel sheepish...

    It turns out I have one more hiccup - I went through your whole process to install homebrew and bootmii and priloader and custom skins etc., but the Wii was still in Japanese. So I used your ModMii program to do a region change (skipped the priiloader section of your helpful guide since I had...

    Hacking Bluebomb: An exploit for the Wii + Wii Mini

    An update - all is well in the end - I didn't realize that Super Mario Galaxy 2 only updates to 4.2U instead of 4.3U so now I have been able to install homebrew once I used the right version. Thanks so much everyone for your efforts. Greatly appreciated!!!

    Hacking Well, I feel sheepish...

    Well, I feel like something of an idiot. Everything you did worked, it was strictly me who didn't understand. I found out last night that Super Mario Galaxy 2 updates to 4.2U, not 4.3U so I was trying to wrong method the whole time. Additionally, I was trying to access bannerbomb via message...

    Hacking Well, I feel sheepish...

    Back to trying to use ModMii and still no success so I wanted to lay out more detail. I am using a 4GB SDHC card. This is what the card looks like when I copy things over. Is this correct?

    Hacking Bluebomb: An exploit for the Wii + Wii Mini

    Cannot get into settings. Tried the various channels and selecting news and weather brings up "This channel is not available" (in Japanese) and the shop channel says that I did not agree to the terms so I cannot use. I tried searching for ways to install the internet channel from an SD card and...

    Hacking Bluebomb: An exploit for the Wii + Wii Mini

    I downloaded FatDog, but I honestly don't know how to follow these instructions (https://github.com/Fullmetal5/bluebomb) since I don't have a Wii Mini and as much as I can follow instructions I don't really know what all of the Linux commands are doing. I've tried the packaged bluebomb on two...

    Hacking Bluebomb: An exploit for the Wii + Wii Mini

    Well, tonight I tried to run the Bluebomb exploit using a bootable USB version of Mint 19.3 and I stop at the same "Awaiting a response from Stage 0" . Should I expect anything different from Fat Dog or is there a different problem plauging me/the Wii? (FWIW I have been using the guide here...

    Hacking Bluebomb: An exploit for the Wii + Wii Mini

    I don't have a Wii Mini unfortunately. I have a Japanese Wii which I received with 2.0J on it and then inserted Wii Sports Resort and did the update and then SMG2 and did the update (foolishly thinking this would help me letterbomb the thing when instead I should have just used ModMii -...

    Hacking Bluebomb: An exploit for the Wii + Wii Mini

    Not sure if this is the right place to ask this so apologies if it isn't, but I run into a hangup when I try to Bluebomb my semi-bricked Japanese Wii. I go through the process of creating the FAT32 USB drive with "boot.elf" from Hackmii installer and plug that into the bottom USB port of the...

    Hacking Well, I feel sheepish...

    Thanks so much for the new ModMii! It's a lot clearer now. (I didn't realize it was your program, awesome!) Unfortunately, when I go into the message board and find the "bomb" it only opens the "text" allowing me to scroll and then freezes when I try to exit the message board. (I was using 4.3U...

    Hacking Well, I feel sheepish...

    So, I tracked down my MAC address again and tried Letterbombing things again from hackmii, both 4.3J and 4.3U, with no success (freezes once I click on the letter). I tried ModMii, but I honestly don't understand how that works (I get confused with references to Wii's that have homebrew and...

    Hacking Well, I feel sheepish...

    Thanks for the response! I cannot remember if I tried both 4.3U and 4.3J on Modmii. Cannot access settings as the Opera error comes up. I think the update from Wii Sports Resort (WSR) worked since the games still played after (I understand WSR has 3.4 on it). It's just the 4.3 update that I'm...
