When I boot up the Homebrew Channel on my Wii, the icon in the bottom-right flashes but none of my applications appear. The odd thing is that I was able to access my apps just days before. I tried formatting my card (with SD Formatter) and copying all my files back on the card but it still won't read it. Help?

Try it with another SD card.
If its not working then maybe ur SD slot died?

Firstly, remove the SD card, copy its contents, format it, place the apps on it and put it back in the Wii. If that doesn't work, first boot Homebrew Channel, then put the SD in. If that fails, you may have an SD slot issue and you may have to switch to app loading from a FAT32 USB drive, depending on whether it's a contact issue or actual damage.

Re-insert the card a few times, it just might detect it.

I know it's not an issue with my SD card slot as I just watched a show on the card through WiiMC.

And I've already tried copying files, formatting and moving them back @Foxi4.

may sound daft, have you tried pressing 1 (i think) to bring up the list of what to load from and tried selecting sd again? I know sometimes on hbc it will switch from loading from usb to sd at random times upon boot

Yeah, what clarky said, or I just remembered.. I think you need to update your HBC. Try using THIS. Or maybe you need to use the latest BootMii Installer to re-install the HBC.

Thanks man, I just tried that and it wasn't set to SD (but to Gecko Slot). It works now!

    I mean built in sound on mobo's has gotten way better but still XP handled sound better and X-Fi was still better than onboard audio even to this day
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Hell not sure what was going on but for like a few weeks MP3's sounded muffled, some driver or Windows update fixed it. Thank god lol
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    Oh boy Massdrop has $1100 IEMs. Want, but not at that price lmao. https://drop.com/buy/campfire-audio-andromeda-emerald-sea-iem
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    I'd sooner buy the Meze 109 Pro if I was dropping that much on headphones. I don't even like buds/IEMs
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    I got the Google Pixel Pro buds, they're good enough for when I need portable audio. And some really cheap IEMs that Dankpods recommends, I think the KZ ZSN Pro

  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    I'd stick with cheapo Chinese $10 ones quality is actually becoming on pair with name brand since name Brand usually quads the price up anyway loose one bud that's another $200
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    My Pixel Pro buds shit the bed a month or two ago. My wireless charger (which they do support Qi charging) absolutely COOKED them. Caused some problem that caused the case to heat up to 180F+
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    They were like 9 months out of warranty but I hit up Google support anyway and told them how hot they were getting and they replaced them with new ones because they wanted these for failure analysis lol
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    lol wireless charging
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Yeah that's why I can't bring myself to even spend $100 on wireless earbuds
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I think it's a cool idea but damn
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    Apparently the case has a problem with >15W wireless chargers. Google design fault, that one.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    I could live with wireless charging if the damn standard case doesn't block connection
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    how is wireless charging possible?

    you mean generally, how does the concept work?

  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Copper conducting electricity or something
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    @Xdqwerty, power through a coil of wire causes an electromagnetic field to be generated. Another coil of wire can be set up to harness the power from that electromagnetic field and turn it into usable energy for charging a device
