Im having a few issues with my bluray drive, the issue mainly being is that it barely ever reads the drive itself. I have a PS3 Phat CECHJ-03

I only own one legit game final fantasy xiii and I have issues with this as the drive barely ever reads the disk. At first I thought it was the lens was on its way out so I went out of my way and bought a new lens, which I replaced and things were fine for a little while and then it stopped reading again, after about 2 weeks.

I've read loads of things saying this may be a issue with CFW, so stupidly I went back to 3.55 and this ended up wiping my 1tb internal hard drive and 70 games with it, silly me and all for nothing as the drive still didn't show.

As I said it will read the game every now and again but then I go and load up some form of homebrew and its gone again.

Any ideas anyone on how I can solve this, i'm currently on Habib 4.75

    Remember when RiiShop was a thing?
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    not really
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    It got shutdown because somebody "accidentally" leaked the database for the amount of people using the beta.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    RiiShop is the laziest way of downloading Wii games. Did somebody not think of this through?
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    although i ended up accidentally changing my nand with no way of going back bc i didn't know you needed a gamecube controller to restore it (i have a wii minus/1.1, which doesn't have gamecube controller support)
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @BakerMan, I think you're talking about the recovery mode that the SaveMii used, and also was to restore softbricked systems.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    If your NAND was hardbricked, then just buy another Wii. Or go with the dirty NAND flasher method.
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    and if i find the sd card i have my NAND backed up on, i can not only restore the NAND if i solder the right part in, but i can also put my NAND on dolphin, then i can play dolphin online, like PMEX Remix or MKWii Riibalanced
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    Brb
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @BakerMan, Oh yeah, that was a thing too. Dolphin does support Wiimmfi.
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    yeah you just need to put your NAND backup with wiimmfi on it
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    ngl i feel like if a bunch of my friends have wiis and know how to get wiimmfi and back up their NAND, then we could do a PMEX Remix tournament
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    maybe even add UMVC3/DBFZ and make it a biathlon/triathlon
