Hacking [Error] Installing Neo Gamma R7

[Yuuri]

So, I followed Deviyl's Softmod Guide to install Neo Gamma R7 as a backup launcher. I went with option (2b) to install R7 as a channel. So, I followed all the steps, and I was able to launch it up in the HBC no problem with the WAD Manager. So, I went ahead and tried to install R7 and it was fine, until it tried to install the WAD. It gave me an error that said: (ret. = -2011). After that, it just said to continue and it didn't install. Anyway, hopefully you can help me find the mistake I made. I mean, I followed the steps, and was able to launch the WAD Manager, but installing R7 won't seem to work. Thanks in advance.

-Edit-
Oh, and my system version is 3.4U if that is needed.

I used the NeoGamma R7 wad from here:

Wad Manager v1.4 installed it fine for me.

I used the NeoGamma R7 wad from here:

http://www.wiihacks.com/software-backup-lo...mma-r7-wad.html

Wad Manager v1.4 installed it fine for me.

That's the same R7 file I found at Deviyl's guide, and I'm using v1.5 of the Wad Manager.

Have you installed other wad files ok? and do you have cIOS rev 14 installed?

Mines installed with no problem you might have some bad ios not fully trucha bugged.
No idea, I have 4.1

I'm having the -exact- same problem as you....followed the instructions using option 2b and I have the same error message when I try to install Neo gamma.

I used both v1.4 and v1.5 of WAD Manager with firmware 4.1U and I got the same error message both times.

Can you intall other Wads? or is it just NeoGamma?

If other wads dont work then it is a problem like no cIOS or some thing.Did you follow therest of the guide to that point?

 

[kisachu]

I haven't tried to install other WADs...I followed the rest of the guide but I skipped the "Installing PreLoader and new cIOS" because it said "For those of you that were able to install BootMii as boot2, PreLoader is only needed if you wish to gain some added hacks (like skip "Press A" screen, and disable update checks, etc)."

I did install BootMii as boot2 and I have the new startup screen when I turn on the wii.

Am I supposed to install cIOS but not PreLoader? is that possible? The instructions kinda merge it together...

Error -2011 = (mostly) there is no trucha bug

Try TBR and/or DOP-IOS to get trucha back in IOS36.

"Installing PreLoader and new cIOS"

skipping preloader yes if you dont want it but recommended, skipping cIOS no, you need that

theres your problem you still need to install a cIOS to be able to run any sort of hack on the wii, from usb loading, disk loading and wad installations...... a cIOS is a must not an option, without it you cant do nothing, thats what the error ret. = -2011 is, its saying it cant find an exploited IOS

Thanks for the help guys. Like most of you said, I needed the Trucha Bag, and cIOS installed. Those were successful and I was able to install the backup launcher. Again, thanks for the help.

You cannot install wad's without the trucha bug. The Trucha Bug Restorer has a name that clearly indicates what it does. Yes you need to use it to get the trucha bug back in IOS36 and then use IOS36 to install a cIOS (which also has the trucha bug and will automatically install to IOS249, which you should use in wad manager). Don't skip steps, they are there for a reason.
