Hacking Bricked vWii by installing IOS 80... because I'm an idiot

[TheMario8801]

How can I get a Nand backup. I Bricked my vwii yesterday by using cios files for my wii

 

[gaga24]

If you make one by your self, use it. If you did not, u screwd.

 

[godreborn]

yeah, the instructions in the vWii tutorial say to backup each ios as a wad and to backup the NAND. :-/

 

[TheMario8801]

R.i.p don't have an NAND. So is my vwii unfixable?

 

[Cyan]

depends your knowledge in hacking consoles.
did you dump your vWii keys at least?
someone could recover a fully deleted vWii NAND by injecting someone else files, editing few settings, and running a python program on PC to fix the files rights.
I don't have the right step in mind right now, but it's possible to an extend. lot of things to do, and it's forbidden to share NAND or files here.

Ugh i didn't dump anything from vwii or wiiu

Hello, so yes, I'm a dumbass, I didn't listen and installed ios 80 for the wii, not the vwii, and now my wii is bricked . I am now lost and have no idea what to do but I know most likely there is nothing I can do. I've attempted to find other solutions such as ftpiiu everywhere and install ios 80 again but to no avail. I currently possess no backups because, again, I'm a dumbass and thought this shit couldn't happen to me (Which it obviously did). If anyone one of you beautiful people could bless me with some type of solution I shall give myself to you..... or just warmly thank you .





I love all of you, my beauties



EDIT: I have fixed my vwii! Here's a small tutorial on how I did it.

1. Install Homebrew on the Wii U
2. Get ftpiiu anywhere in order to access your files, you have to use mocha, chdc, or haxchi
3. Find a nand backup, if it is a .bin file then extract it in order to access the files inside.
4. Get filezilla or similar software in order to gain access to the storage of the wii u through ftpiiu anywhere
5. Get ftpiiu anywhere up and running, make sure you can modify the files
6. Take the title and shared1 files in the slccmpt01 folder on your backup and transfer them over, replace everything inside those folders

And it should all be fixed

i am very happy you got this done, i wish i could get this done too, i did everything like you except i cannot open the slccmpt01 folder and i do not have a back up to replace anything with.. i have been doing great with wiiu and vWii hacking .. and since i got these wii wads in and bricked my vWii i have been so lost.. i simply do not know what to do .. i get to step 5 fine.. but thats all i have ftp everywhere opened and connected to pc and the folders aren't opening..

Is there anyway I could get a NAND since it's forbidden here?

I don't believe the slcmpt and the NAND dump are the same thing. I noticed that there's a slight size difference with one being like a KB larger than the other. you can open the NAND dump, at least the slc-mpt, with eyekey's NAND tools, the slcmpt dump, and the otp.bin. there are a lot of .app's in there, not sure how to restore it though.

Try using HBL2HBC to boot directly into the homebrew channel and install a normal vIOS80.

HBL2HBC doesn’t work and instead I get a black tv and game pad screen

I am so desperate to fix my bricked vWii (iOS 80 and RiiConnect24)
How do I fix it ?!

hbl2hbc is just a way to autoboot HBC AFTER launching vWii.
if vWii is bricked, you can't launch it, and can't go to hbc either. even though HBC uses IOS58, it seems it tried to reload to 80 first before switching the loaded channel.


to fix your IOS80, you need a clean good signed IOS80 that you should have backuped when following a proper vWii softmod guide (not youtube).
Then, inject the wad manager into a WiiU WiiVC channel, install on WiiU using wup installer.
it'll launch vWii using IOS255 instead of IOS80. from the wad manager, reinstall your clean IOS80 to vWii.

check here :
IOS Brick, vWii not working :
https://gbatemp.net/threads/guide-vwii-unbrick-guide-by-garyodernichts.528329/#vWii-not-working
just install IOS80 instead of IOS58 (DO NOT FIX IOS58 if not broken, you'll make things worse!)

some users reported having issues with injected channel. if you can't make it work, you still have the FTP solution, explained below on the same guide too.
