No Homebrew/wiimotes will run.

Hi all. assistance is needed please. Its my friends wii.

Ok, so i thought i was a relatively moderate+ on wii softmodding. but i need to turn to you real professionals... i have an issue... ok first of all the wii.

running, 3.2,
has bootmii installed as boot 2 (cannot access the bootmii menu even though my bootmii folder is on the root of the sd card and every file correct and accounted for)
preloader installed 0.29
Homebrew channel 0.8
cios rev 14

Issues:

Wii will not run any homebrew. homebrew channel loads fine, homebrew runs fine (except MMM which crashes upon loading) but wii motes disconnect on all. ok so i also have a gc controller, i try pressing the buttons and it either crashes the wii or it produces a stack error resulting in me having to hold the wii power for 4 seconds to turn off.

i have tried this with dop mii v13. when you need to press a to continue, wii mote disconnects and gc controller produces a stack error (i will be trying version 12 again to see if that changes anything)
tried to update preloader to priiloader latest and again no wiimote and gc controller it will work to. but it says failed to get tmd size aborting. and again then crashes wii.

bannerbomb gets so to the point of pressing 1 to continue and again crashes.

wad manager 1.7 loads, but will not accept the gamecube controller or wii (as dies) and music plays but cant go anywhere.

im really stuck. i am trying to update it to version 4.1 but its not letting me do anything. i have access to the wii system menu so its not banner bricked or anything, preloader boots up fine but again obv wont load homebrew channel as 0.8.

please someone help me. im absolutly at the end of my knowledge base

Install latest HBC 1.08 it will update hbc and boot mii test if bootmii work before doing anything be sure that your bootmii work

test if you could update your cios

after that you could try to do a official update to 4.3 to update all your ios reinstall latest priiloader there is no need to stay on 4.1 with latest prilloader hack you could re-enable bannerbomb

you could try an official update that will update all your IOS , shop channel system menu ... without removing HBC 1.08. see if it fix your problem after reinstall HBC 1.08 to use new IOS58 after that you can continue your softmod with Pimp my Wii 2.02 for install hermes and waninkoko latest CIOS

i think you dont need any exploit cause it use new one, no game exploit need

Updating to 4.3 won't remove HBC 1.08 so you don't need indiana jones.
It will remove some CIOS, but thats not too hard to reinstall.

If you have not updated yet, please don't- you will kick yourself in the ass if you do it without the proper preparations to re-enable your mods easily.

I think you should install ios58, then reinstall hackmii 0.8. See if that helps. There is no reason you should need to update to fix this issue, so if you have not- don't.

i have updated already. thanx for the word of caution tho mauifrog.

however ios 58 was not installed. i wouldnt have been able to install it anyway. as every homebrew and i mean every homebrew would not work. kept crashing the wii.. so i dont see how i would have installed it anyway.

can i ask though plz. before i go read up like a mofo.. is there a problem if i dont have ios 58 installed before i updated. i have dop mii. can i not just use that? i need to get ios 36 back as a trucha signed ios. but i am not doing anything until i read up first.

you can use Pimp my Wii 2.02 to install missing update .... but if you do a 4.3 update you should have IOS58 ... just reinstall HBC and it will use IOS58

pimp my wii could trucha sign, install cios, patch IOS

Keep your IOS58 clean, no patch at all

You should have ios58 from the 4.3 update, just reinstall the HBC to make it use ios58. I am sure that you could have gotten that ios installed without updating, without a doubt positive, but your issue is probably fixed now.

launch hackmii installer within HBC ( make a folder hackmii installer in you apps directory and put the boot.elf inside )
then reinstall it ....

For re-enable bannerbomb install latest priiloader and use that hacks.ini
