Hacking "ERROR! ret -1029" Little help?

[Dork]

Hello, I am currently ripping my hair out when trying to install a certain WAD. I have Wii firmware 3.2U, cIOSrev21 using IOS249 as a base, and have Hermes cIOS222v5 installed.
The wad I am trying to install was created off CustomizeMii, the base wad is the USB Loader GX forwarder, I also tried the channel. I create the wad without any problems, but when I try to install
it, I get the infamous "ret -1029" error. Every other WAD I try works but this one. I tried installing different cIOSrevs, different WAD Managers, no luck.

I would like to post the wad I am trying to install, but it is against the rules, but I could post the boot.dol I am trying to inject if necessary.

EDIT: I am aware of what the error means, but I don't know how to fix it

I also found this written by Waninkoko on twitter:

"Getting -1029 error? Fix your WAD! Byte 0x1F1 of the ticket should be 0x00 (or 0x01 if using the Korean common key). "

I have no idea how to change the byte either.

Select a different IOS to use for install... 36 for example.

Tried that, then I started getting "ret -2011" or "ret -1022"

it's just a USB Loader GX forwarder you're trying to install??? if it truly is a .wad problem...why not just find a different one...there's only about 10,000 of them out there....

multi mod manager use it to patch ios36 and then use it to install the wad

Nope, just gave me a "ret -1022" when trying to install.

Isn't ret -1002 the unfixable error of death? I saw that in another topic where some else go the error, and Mauifrog posted it.

That's -1012 and -1024.

-1022 is a content hash issue. It's a common error for poorly-made warez releases that haven't been re-signed, but since this wad came out of CustomizeMii, it's probably corrupt. CustomizeMii wads typically shouldn't have this issue.

Get/make another wad.

No ret 1024 is the bad one, accompanied by a syscheck with no trucha bug on ios that are known to have the patch.

1022/1029 means that the tmd of the wad is no good. Get another wad.

Thanks for clearing that up

Alright, I tried another wad, this time I tried the Static base wad which came with CustomizeMii.
Still didn't work. I am really becoming less patient over this as I have tried pretty much everything
but nothing will install this wad, is there some kind of way I can install this wad manually?

Do nonedited wads work okay?

Perhaps more details on what your trying to do, what you have done, etc will help get you an answer.

Why dont you try wadmanager 1.7 http://www.teknoconsolas.es/blog/waninkoko/wad-manager-v17 .
And install ios236 to run it http://filetrip.net/f23428-IOS236-Installer-5.html
You will need to select ios236 when you start Wadmanager

Yes, I could install a non-edited Static Base and USB Loader channel.

Alright, this is what I am trying to do:

I am trying to create a custom channel for a homebrew app I like to use a lot, so I took the boot.dol of this app and injected it into
the USB Loader channel using CustomizeMii, I then edited the banner and icon properly. I create the WAD without any errors. I can install the un-edited USB Loader channel
but when I try to install my custom channel, it gave me the "ret -1029" error. When I tried to install it on other base ios, I would get "ret -2011" or "ret 1022".
So then I tried to inject the boot.dol into the Static Base wad given in CustomizeMii, I took the animations and layout from the USB Loader channel, added them to the
static base, edited the banner and icon properly, created wad successfully, tried to install, didn't work.

I have absolutely no idea why this is happening, and I am very frustrated.

Wow, this actually worked, thank you, and thanks to everybody who helped me.
