Why do you think it "bricked"?I tried booting into Wiiflow but it froze so I tried power cycling it and it bricked
It wouldint boot into the wii menu or priiloader it would just start on a black screenWhy do you think it "bricked"?
There aren't many software reasons a Wii would brick because of crashing.It wouldint boot into the wii menu or priiloader it would just start on a black screen
nope, i used the cios installer homebrew app to install ios 249 thoThere aren't many software reasons a Wii would brick because of crashing.
Did you install any dangerous WAD using Wiiflow, directly to SysNAND?
honestly dont know how to get to that but I cant get into any UI or brick saver of any sortHave you tried recovery mode?
But it didn't crash while using the CIOS installer.nope, i used the cios installer homebrew app to install ios 249 tho
so its screwed pretty much?But it didn't crash while using the CIOS installer.
I'm not sure but it looks like a hardware issue. If you had priiloader but now it doesn't work it's the only alternative.
I would not return it to the store like you intended to.
It's immoral and scummyi payed 50 buchs for it and i did everything to mod it correctly
Really? We have had a few Wii lately hardware failing – could be the case here. ExampleI would not return it to the store like you intended to.

i had priiloader installed and bootmii set as an ios, i don't know how to get to a recovery mode or boot mii as ios but priiloader didn't work@RuthyHans You can't access Priiloader by holding start on boot? And you didn't set up BootMii as boot2 when you modded it? If you did, make sure the sdcard is inserted.
Again, holding reset when boot doesn't take you straight to Priiloader? If you can't access either then it's bricked.i had priiloader installed and bootmii set as an ios, i don't know how to get to a recovery mode or boot mii as ios but priiloader didn't work
it only said that it could install bootmii as ios and i could get into priiloader before and didn't mess with the menu at all besides the disc channel priiloader mod but that's allReally? We have had a few Wii lately hardware failing – could be the case here. Example
It is a bit like with brand new things: If you root/jailbreak → no warranty on the hardware (even if there is absolutely no causality between modded software and the failure). That topic has more than one side. Lying for "I screwed up and somebody else should take the damage" is 100% scummy.

@RuthyHans If you did the modding correctly you should have access to BootMii in boot2 (if possible on your device) and/or Priiloader. If the following conditions are true:
then and only then I would say hardware failure.
- Priiloader installed correctly (verified working before)
- No System Menu replaced (overwrites Priiloader)
- Console previously working (System Menu), no dangerous operation, started WiiFlow → Bang
- Priiloader not starting now
nope, nothin was workingAgain, holding reset when boot doesn't take you straight to Priiloader? If you can't access either then it's bricked.
