Hacking Error 003'd Wii

[fgghjjkll]

Hey, I bricked my Wii a while back because I updated a korean wii to a 4.2 US.
I cannot run MarioKart-PWNS or SwapDisc-PWNS as neither method can load SSBB properly.

With MarioKart-PWNS, I'm able to autoboot Mario Kart. However, when i swap to SSBB and "install the channel", I encounter a black screen and the disc shows no signs of being read.

With SwapDisc-PWNS, CastleVania refuses to autoboot.

Please assist me, I've asked a few people, looked through 20 pages to google search results, asked in #wiihelp (banned from a misunderstanding), but they all haven't been able to start my wii back so far...

get a wode, it'll make things easier. Once you have a wode I may be able to help you more.

I was hoping I didn't have to say that, since that was exactly what got me banned from #wiihelp. (WODE = Piracy not Recovery)
I installed a WODE shortly after bricking my Wii.

 

[mauifrog]

make sure you have added "0SBE01" to the wode's list of dual layer discs.

I think i've done that correctly.

 

[damysteryman]

Hmmm.... I am just wondering why the Castlevania swap.iso refuses to load no matter what you try...

Apparently Carnival Games works with with Swapdisc-PWNS... maybe try that instead of Castlevania?
Accordding to Mauifrog's guide, Carnival Games does not even need the disc to spin up, which helps.

Of course, here is hoping that your Wii actually decides to load the Carnival Games disc up in the first place, unlike with Castlavania.

 

[mauifrog]

How did this wii get to have the 4.2u system menu on it? Was it region changed? Or semi bricked from a disc update? If it was region changed, was the system menu working properly? Or was it region changed to USA?

Possibly you have semi bricked wii with Korean system setting.
Possibly you have region changed wii with Jap settings and semi bricked on a USA menu.
If the language in setting.txt is not supported by your game iso, the game will load to a black screen.

Possibly try loading SSBB-kor via Mario Kart PWNS.

Possibly iso is bad, verify with wit.

 

[fgghjjkll]

I have done a video of the swapdisc-method

It might help.
I'm verifying the iso as I type.
The Wii was originally on 3.2U (always prefered american system firmwares when possible)
I updated it. Now it's on 4.2U and bricked.

I think that the settings may not be corrupt as I have set the settings in this Wii before, such as regarding networking, video settings, parental controls, etc.
I'll try look for a korean SSBB. Hope I can find a copy.

Verifying original disc now.

 

[damysteryman]

Well, it looks like you have at least performed the disc swap enough to get it to recognize SSBB... but I do not know why it is still asking for the SSBB disc though. Does the WODE try to "eject" the iso when that screen shows up?

Anyone else have any idea why it is doing this?

 

[tueidj]

Why is the iso named "ssbb-pal.iso" but all the title IDs are for NTSC-U? You know the US version of SSBB can't autoboot, right?

 

[damysteryman]

I know that it is a PAL version, since I actually posted a copy of the game to him.

The SwapDisc-PWNS.bat in mauifrog's Eror 003 fixing tutorial changes the Title ID of both the game that gets swapped out, and the copy of SSBB, over to 0SBE01, as part of the game swapping trickery I believe.

EDIT: 1000th post! Was never sure if I would actually get that far
Now I get my shiny new first Red-striped gbatemp ribbon

 

[tueidj]

That is the Disc ID, not the title ID. It doesn't explain why the other partitions (the VC demos) have NTSC-U IDs.

 

[damysteryman]

Ah true. Now I see what you mean, what with all the other partitions... silly me failed to notice that the first time I looked at it.
They SHOULD all be ***P...
Thanks for pointing that out tueidj.

fgghjjkll, why is that happening?
You did not mix up the copy I gave you with your USA copy you had, now did you?
/me has his pitchfork and torch ready on standby in case he needs to hunt down fgghjjkll...

 

[fgghjjkll]

Ah...
I'll rip it once again... JUST TO MAKE SURE!

 

[damysteryman]

Anyone care to join me on this lovely little train ride?

User error is the worst error of all it seems.

I am unsure as to whether or not your WODE will rip it while your Wii is in it's crippled state, so maybe best to try ripping it using a pc and imgburn.

Also, use wit verify right away after ripping, just to be sure!
I know for certain that the disc I gave you is of PAL SSBB, due to the fact that I have never had any other version of SSBB in my possession in my entire life.

 

[fgghjjkll]

Nah, this WODE /should/ theoretically be able to rip this disc.

 

[mauifrog]

It should check out like this with wit, before you edit the disc header. After you edit the iso with wit only the title and id should change in the disc header. All partitions should still pass wit verify, TICKET & TMD are well signed

Thanks for everyone's help and support! mauifrog, DeadlyFoez, damysteryman, tuidj, you've saved me from a lot of dilemma.
I was able to boot up SSBB and load the SmashStack PAL exploit, install bootmii(ios) and hbc and ran KoreanKii. (damysteryman for this brilliant suggestion)

Now it is able to boot into 4.2U fine without Error 003, and I couldn't have done this without your help.

Thanks!

I was able to boot up SSBB and load the SmashStack PAL exploit, install bootmii(ios) and hbc and ran KoreanKii.

It would have been safer to just install IOS60 into the appropriate slot. I don't know why he would suggest that, when I made it clear in KoreanKii that if it goes wrong, your Wii is bricked for good. I haven't even tested it myself.

PS: If the emoticon didn't make it clear, I am annoyed.

 

[tueidj]

The chances of that happening are much less likely than a screw up while reinstalling the system menu IOS.
