So I want to download some homebrew using my vWii. When I use homebrew browser, a few seconds after I use it, boom it crashes.

It gives an error like

Exception (DSI) occurred!

After that I have to unplug the Wii U from power instead of holding the power to shut it down.

Any help?

Try pressing and holding the "B" button on the Wii Remote while the HBB is loading

I had the same problem

This is a tutorial on how to fix the HBB. I have seen a lot of people on Wii Chatter asking about this problem, so i'm making this post.

Step one: Put your SD Card in your computer (unless you have WiiExplorer, which you can fix it with).
Step two: Open your SD Card and go into apps, then the Homebrew Browser folder.
Step three: Open the file called "settings.xml" with Notepad.
Step four: find the text "setting_server="0" .
Step five: change the 0 to 1.
Step six: put the SD Card in your Wii and go to HBB and voila! It works!

I hope this guide helped. Though I suggest using WiiBrew for getting apps from. They have a much more up-to-date library of apps and you really don't need to be on PC for that either. Just go to WiiBrew on PC and download WiiBrowser, an internet browser that can download files (not to be confused with WiiExplorer). The version on HBB is out-of-date. I also suggest WiiExplorer (again, the version on HBB is out of date), a file browser for Wii. It has many uses and I have used it tons of times. Hope this helps!


NOTE: The regular repo is back up and secondary is down now. Please undo what this thread says to do. Also, there is a RiiConnect24 repo in the making! This thread is no longer needed.

Around gbatemp some people posted their setting files just copy and paste and you should be good to go :P (Just search up "homebrew browser crashes on wii/vwii" and it should be one of the ones in gbatemp)
