I bricked my 4.0(officially updated) wii using a bad forwarder wad. I searched nearly everywhere but I couldnt find anything
. Here is my wii status:

I have a modchip not sure whats the name but it allows me to play copied games

My system menu is 4.0(USA) updated with system settings

I did downgrade my IOS before getting bricked(for using geckoOS with channels)

No starfall nor preloader

 

No don't have Bootmii and btw thanks for the help (you're...FUCKED!!)

 

Isn't there anyway other than a Drivechip???

Sorry didnt look carefully
But I heard that if your IOS have been downgraded you can still use the trucha bug(thats the hole i'm looking for)

 

So do you mean I can boot any autoboot disc from the recovery menu??

Cause I tried without savemiifrii (booted from the Health and safety screen) and I got an error saying:
"Error reading disc...etc."

 

i banner brick my 4.0U wii after installing NeoGamma R5.wad and i dont think i have any protection installed like bootmii. where can i get a recovery disc? am I "fucked" too?
What options do i have? I have a wiikey2 installed.

 

I fixed my banner brick by using UUD V2. i burned it using ImgBurn and insert it in my 4.0U ntsc wii with my WiiKeyV2 and it booted into Wad manager 1.3, unistalled NeoGamma_R5.wad and done!!

 

Chris,
All I did was burn the UUDV2 ISO with ImgBurn at 4x (as if you are burning a game ISO) and insert it in the Wii's DVD and done. I was able to boot into a WAD manager 1.3 application. Removed the bad WAD (NeoGamma R5.wad) and then restart my wii. I had to reinstall HomeBrew Channel cause it was gone. I recommend you try to burn another ISO of UUDV2 and try it again. Good Luck with your DriveKey!!

 

So - I got my Drivekey today... but sadly it's not the magic fix I was hoping as pretty much no backups work. I can't get ANY of my rescue discs to work (UUDv2, LCUD, Pink Fish, WAD MNGR, AnyTitleDelete...). I've tried super-slow burns, fast burns, burns on iMac, burns on XP, burns on Windows 7, burns with 3 diff kinds of DVD media... nothing works!!.... except 1...

A backup of Wii Sports Resort does work...

Can someone explain that for me? How in the world does a burnt backup of Wii Sports Resort boot up with my Drivekey/Bannerbricked Wii, but nothing else will?

Do I need to find some way to get whatever lets Wii Sports Resort boot injected into one of my rescue discs or something?!?...

Feels so close.. yet so far away...

 

because its not trucha signed, your wii wont autoboot any trucha signed disc, if you wait until the Brawl Expoilt comes out you may be able to unbrick your Wii

 

yea. if we have modchip, we can use autoboot disc to boot into wad manager. long time ago, someone already post wadmanager autoboot iso..
