First off, I updated my wii from 3.2u to 4.0u using the tutorial from http://www.yafaze.com/wii/4.0updateguide.html

I have a Wiikey 2 modchip installed so that should allow autobooting.
I can use savemiifrii and its says 4.0 usa on the bottom corner.

I was able to play my trucha signed manhunt 2 before I bricked it.
My wiikey has updates blocked so when i can borrow my friend's wii I can change that.

Is there any possible way I can unbrick my wii?
I can't get any discs to boot at all right now but none of them are configured to autoboot.
I already went through 5 discs on failed attempts.

Any help is greatly apprciated.
Hm, according to the symtoms you described in your previous post, this sounds like a full brick. A banner brick won't lead to a corrupted system files message. If your system files really are corrupt, this would explain why you can't autoboot any disc from recovery mode. Are you sure, no autoboot discs are working? How about any unscrubbed games?

I doubt recovery mode would help if you cannot autoboot any homebrew: At least with my Wii, pink fish doesn't autoboot on 4.0(official or inofficial version). Pink fish was the key to success, because it allowed to simply delete all user-related Wads, including such with bad banners. If at least this disc will autoboot(try using BootMe), you can remove the Wad.

If you didn't have CIOSCORP installed, you need a modchip to autoboot DVDRs via Recovery Mode. Other way, there's no chance to run ANY code. If you had CIOSCORP installed, you should be able to run trucha-signed discs directly, e.g. with Wad Manager(see second URL in my previous post).
