Hacking Chip after Softmod

[syzyx2003]

I installed a softmod and now I got a chip to run MPT and other dual layer disks BUT because of the softmod I can't run those games in normal way, through the disk channel. So what should I do to stop the "hacked DVD reading" and let the chip do his job?

I thought about uninstalling DVDx with AnyTitleDeleter, is this ok? Do you have other ideas?

 

[FenrirWolf]

That should work. Or you could uninstall dvdx directly through the hackmii installer.

 

[Dmon84]

Do you have CIOSCorp installed?

 

[Dialexio]

DVDX has absolutely nothing to do with softmods.

If cIOSCORP was used, remove it. (Do not delete any IOSes. You could use Dop-IOS to install every IOS over cIOSCORP.)

If you don't have cIOSCORP and changed the setting in Preloader, make sure the original IOS is used (i.e.- use IOS60 on System Menu 4.1).

 

[noobwarrior7]

if you added a chip, everything should run as normal, even with cioscorp.

cIOS only alter the way your drive deals with backups discs, but with a chip, it sees every disc as legit.

if something is not working, unless the newer chips are really weird, it is all your chips fault.


edit: it may be possible that newer cioscorp introduces some legit problems with 001 and 002 errors even with chips, but I doubt it. try it, if it becomes a problem, look into removing corp. read speeds will still be 6x regardless with a decent chip. if you got a 3x only chip.....well.....why?

 

[YS-T]

Could it maybe be that it is one of the cIOS'es from waninkoko that is causing the problem, i have read somewhere that some of the older cIOS_revisions disables original dual layer games in the disc drive if that is the case just install cIOS_rev14 and it should work?

 

[noobwarrior7]

a chip/softmod combo would not stop dual layer reading, but a bad burn or bad media would....softmods work better with dvd-r's but a lot of chips read dvd+r's better, just from experience.

 

[syzyx2003]

I get 002 error. I don't think that there is a problem with my chip because ... it's a new chip (waspkey2) based on Wasabi DX.
I think that the problem is: the CIOS can't read the dual layer disk ... even if the chip can ...

If cIOSCORP was used, remove it. (Do not delete any IOSes. You could use Dop-IOS to install every IOS over cIOSCORP.)

Dop-IOS? what's that? Please give me more details.

 

[noobwarrior7]

it is the cios, but its not a dual layer issue, its either the cios throwing an 002 error (which has nothing to do with DL) or it is an actual 002 error, which would be your missing an IOS in the 50's.

 

[Dialexio]

Dop-IOS is a utility that can install any missing IOSes. It prevents the installation of "stub" (non-functional) IOSes, and can also patch the Trucha bug back in (useful for practically anything modified).

Error #002 means that the title cannot use the IOS it wants. Check to make sure IOS53 and IOS55 are installed.

 

[syzyx2003]

or it is an actual 002 error, which would be your missing an IOS in the 50's.

And the solution for this is installing IOS53 and 55 using Dop-IOS. The thing is that I have those IOSes installed ... so I guess that it's: QUOTEthe cios throwing an 002 error (which has nothing to do with DL)

And in this case what do I do?

 

[noobwarrior7]

use dop-ios to overwrite IOS 21,30,33,35,36,50,53,55,56, and 60 with trucha patch, etc. for all of them, and then 61 w/o trucha or any patches.

almost correct.

Unless you're a weenie and you're using a system menu below 3.4, you want to install the OLD version (hit the "-" button in DoP-IOS) of IOS30 as well. You will not be prompted to patch the old IOS30 at all because it already has the bugs in it (Nintendo's fault). Not patching IOS61 allows HBC to run correctly (not upside down), and the old IOS30 allows the hackmii installer to run in the first place.

 

[syzyx2003]

Pfff ... OK ... I lost you for a moment ... so in the end I shouldn't patch/install/update IOS 61, right?

The thing is that I used a custom made hack program and I'm not sure what is installed except for the IOSes and the Hackmii that I installed in order to have homebrew. I Installed that custom package from homebrew. And the guy that made the package didn't said what he put in that package despite my constant questions.

I had System Menu 3.3 and now I have 3.2, the custom pack did a downgrade but all my 3.3 channels remained there. I can run the games directly from Disk Channel without any other helping programs like NeoGamma.

This is what IOSes contained the package:

[syzyx2003]

A question: if I install the original IOSes using cIOSCORP 3.4 Uninstaller (is overwriting official IOSes with the originals from what I know) can I play the games from Disk Channel? Will I Still get error 002? Will I be opened to a brick? Can I still use Homebrew and install wad games and USB Loaders and other programs?

 

[BBking83]

So what should I do to stop the "hacked DVD reading" and let the chip do his job?

Is that the exact message you are getting?? I haven't seen or even heard of it before.

What update are you on??

4.0/4.1, trucha signing IOS60 or 4.2 trucha signing IOS70 should get backups working. Did for my Wiikey. Although, 4.2 Region Free isn't working. I've heard this applies to most mod chips.

The only way I can think of around this, which I haven't tried yet, is using Preloader or Waninkoko's 1.4 SM Patcher.
