I think this is gonna work out in my favor (either way). Hopefully they figure out how to exploit 4.3 before August so I can get Metroid: Other M. I'll make sure to install bootmii as boot2 so I can avoid all of this later lol.
It has BootMii IOS, so you don't have to worry. I lied it up to the guy who spoke with me. Hopefully they send me the stuff for free. Only thing is, this isn't MY wii. I'm going to have to give the family that I hacked this for, MY wii, and keep the 4.3 one......So yeah....No homebrew for a while. Well, no. I'm going to install HBC, but I won't have cIOSdaxtsu said:Don't send your Wii in then if you have the capability of Bootmii Boot2, if it's not having hardware issues. They'll probably send you one back without it.
You have a NAND backup, so you have BootMii (boot2/IOS) ?MasterMan said:Sorry for not helping, but i have a friend who screwed up a jpn black wii after i softmoded it, installed priiloader and made a NAND backup. Now it just turns on in a black screen and even priiloader doesn't work by holding reset.
I would like to know if i just need to turn it on while holding U+D+L+R in a GC controll and have a original disc in the drive wich has 4.3 update and it will work.
I know 4.3 is homebrew killer, but i think it's better have a unhackable console than a paper weight. And sooner or latter a workaround will appear.
daxtsu said:I think it depends HOW it's bricked. If it cannot run at all[missing system IOS], then how can they possibly explore your NAND? it's encrypted, and there's no way to get the keys if the system won't even run, unless they're suddenly using Bootmii on old Wiis..
Yes i installed bootmii IOS and all, he said me it was working wonderfully at his house, USB GX and all. But he tryed to watch a DVD in WIIMC but it asked for IOS 202, so he did it and the wii died. I think this is weird, D3-2 drive simply refuses to read burned discs, even original video discs, so could it be the cause?tj_cool said:You have a NAND backup, so you have BootMii (boot2/IOS) ?MasterMan said:Sorry for not helping, but i have a friend who screwed up a jpn black wii after i softmoded it, installed priiloader and made a NAND backup.

Also, screwed up in what way?
But if I bricked it to the point of no return, then there's no way they can see it can they? Idk, I'll report back what happens when it happens.PabloACZ said:daxtsu said:I think it depends HOW it's bricked.

Remember they ARE Ninty. They have all the hardware and software documentation of the console. No one ever knows, that's why I said "if".
