    Hacking Fixing a bricked wii with DOP-Mii

    I have a preloader issue brick. I honestly can't remember what I did to brick it, it's been a long long time since I've even tried fixing it, but here's the basic issue: When I turn my wii on, the start-up screen comes up but when I hit A the system menu won't load, I just get a black screen...

    Hacking USB Loader + Linux Thread

    Has anyone had any luck with this yet? I formatted my HDD using Waninkoko's USB loader app on the Wii. I dumped a game, made sure it worked (it did) and then decided I would dump some ISO's directly from my computer to the HDD to save time. I'm running ubuntu (the 9.04 Jaunty Beta). I tried...

    Hacking Question on cIOS's

    I'm pretty good at keeping up with most of the tech-talk that goes on, but one thing I've never fully understood are cIOSs. My ignorant guess is that they are similar to firmware and are sets of code that are required to run specific things like DVD playback, etc. My overall question is that...

    Hacking Playing Japanese backups

    Is there anything special I need to do to play Japanese backups? I've tried two different games and so far neither of them have worked. I have an NTSC wii and I do have a backup loader that forces NTSC. I even loaded up the menu and played with the options but have had no luck making it run.

    Hacking Backup Loader For NTSC Wiis

    I've been using WiiGator's Backup Loader with no issues. The only annoyance is having to hit "1" repeatedly to enter the menu every time I start up a game to set it to force NTSC. Most of the backups I have are PAL and I was curious if there are any versions of the backup loader that will force...

    Homebrew Help reinstalling backup loader

    I installed the backup loader, following instructions on how to downgrade my firmware. It worked successfully. I didn't install the latest update but I had installed the one before. The downgrade definitely worked because WAD manager works again. After that I installed the custom IOS which also...

    Homebrew Backup Loader Error (Text Unreadable)

    Every time I've tried to boot up a backup game I get an error. I've tried three different ISOs and haven't been to get any of them to work. Unfortunately I don't know what error to tell you that I've got because the text is unreadable. When I start the channel it says "Loading..." but then it...

    Homebrew Burning Wii Backups In Ubuntu (help!!)

    Has anyone had any luck burning ISOs in Ubuntu and playing them in the wii backup loader channel? I've tried downloading three different ISOs.. I right click on them and go to "Write To Disc" but ubuntu gives me an error saying it's not a valid disc image. I know it's not a problem with my...
