Why can't you do the trick ?
It is only playing a game from the disc channel, it's not a trick, it's the way you should play.

If it worked before you send it to repair, it means you already could do it before, no?

if it comes back from repair, everything should work fine, your drive is working fine. go to the shop and buy a game if it's what you meant by "not possible".

Hey! I was trying to get my Wii back to factory (remove softmod) to sell it. I followed a guide that had me delete all the IOS' above IOS60. The processs kind o fhung. Now my HBC doesn't load. We I select HBC the Wii resets. I've tried to start the softmod all over again but the boot.elf step loads into a black screen.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
J

running the normal update from sysmenu should restore them
then remove hbc and all other channels you installed
finally run "format" from sysmenu and be done with it

that should get you a reasonably clean wii
not good enough for waranty but thats not easy

wait for a second oppinion

unless you did some stupid shit while modding it should not
without knowing what you did there is no telling
but since you somehow blocked updates (without priiloader) its save to say that something's fishy

anyway, whatever did that possibly blocked disk updates too

I think I would make nand backup and then either

A) remod via modmii reinstalling all ios and the sysmenu in the process
then remove ios >100 and hdc, finally format

or B) create a clean nand using "ohneswanzenegger" and install that one

I decided to boot up my wii today after a long time not using it (6-8 months) and for whatever reason wiiflow seems to not be working for me. When i launch it from the menu wii dashboard the screen goes black and it shows some kind of wii windows and then it boots the menu up again. I havent updated anything in a while and dont know where to start.

Is banner bomb safe to do instead of modmii. I just want to save the cost of renting Smash Bros.
ModMii, too, will actually suggest banner bomb if you're using 4.2 or lower. If you have 4.3 (which doesn't work with any banner bomb version) it will suggest wilbrand which is basically the same as letter bomb.

I found out that I could hack my wii and I was all over it. I watched a video on youtube, downloaded a package through the link in the discription and loaded several things into my wii. I am wondering what the basic files are that I need for my wii system since I can not get the wad I need to virginize my wii. I would like to start clean and install only the apps I need. I am also having trouble loading wbfs files from my sd card. I have used at least 3 different loaders, neo gamma, cfg, wiiflow and none of them read the files. this is why I think I have issues with my system files.

Run ModMii and tell it your Wii is a virgin. That should fix up any incorrectly done steps.

The biggest issue I was having is that I can not get WBFS files to load off my SD Card. I Have two of them. I put them into their ow WBFS folder on the card, and Into a wbfs forlder, nothing. I also formatted the card in wbfs manager and loaded them that way, nothing. any thoughts?

So, my optical drive in my Wii died. I tried adjusting the pot but wasnt able to make it read disks (cleaned it first obviously) next I letterbombed it, installed bootmii as a 2nd loader (however you word that)

next i installed usb loader 70 onto a different sd card, removed the letterbomb sdcard, put in the usb loader card, installed usb loader from homebrew, when I was notified that IOS was just a stub, pls reinstall. Since this point my wii appears to be bricked.

Any advice, or any more info you need that I left out?

run ModMii for Windows. You can either do the syscheck update wizard or the modmii wizard and guide and tell it that it's a virgin wii. It will do all the hard part it can and tell you how to do the rest.
There's all kinds of stuff that it would be good to have on there that it will guide you through putting on there but the main thing that you need is an IOS249. Nintendo puts a useless stub in there to try to prevent USB loading.

I have run the wizard and have the sd card? How do I get it to run now?
