Hello guys,
I was softmodding one of my Wiis and I came up with a problem.
My Wii is a 4.3U white Wii, with GC retrocompatibility.
It was never softmodded before.
I downloaded the letterbomb from the official website, put the correct MAC address, the correct 4.3U version and the option "Bundle the Hackmii installer for me" was checked.
My SD Card is a 16gb SD card formatted in FAT32
I tried to load the exploit using the letter bomb method, but the letter bomb never appeared.
- Wii time and date are correct
- SD Card is in FAT32 (I formatted it again just to make sure)
- I tried with two other SD cards, one 1GB and other 4GB, and still the letter bomb doesn't show up.
When I insert the SD Card on Wii, the SD Card icon keeps gray for 5 seconds and then turns blue.
If I click in SD Card icon while it's still grey, the SD Card page opens up, keeps loading SD Card and appears a message "The device inserted in the SD Card slot cannot be used"
If I click in SD Card icon after it turns blue, the SD Card page opens up like it's working normally.
Well, I read a lot of other questions like mine and never found a solution.
I used the str2hax method to install Homebrew Channel and it worked.
It was said that, if the SD Card inserted has a boot.elf or boot.dol file in its root, the exploit of str2hax will boot this file from SD Card.
When the exploit of str2hax loaded, it was written on the screen that no SD Card was found, even with my SD Card inserted.
I installed the homebrew channel using this method, and when it opened, no apps appeared.
I tried all three SD Cards without success (all of them worked in my other Wiis).
I pressed 1 and tried to click in SD Card to load the files, but "Exception (DSI) occurred" message appeared (it happened with all three SD Cards)
Then, I tried to put the files into a USB flash drive. I pressed 1 and selected USB drive. The same "Exception (DSI) occurred" message appeared.
My Wii is working, I can play games normally, but I can't open homebrew apps.
I even tried to transfer save game data to the SD Card and it worked, so I don't think the SD card slot is faulty.
If anyone could help me, I really appreciate it
