Hi. I'm new here but I usually go to this website for help and couldn't find my problem in particular. My wii use to be on a 3.4u firmware. I am using the homebrew channel the neo gamma launcher with the rev14 for wii games and the gamecube launcher 0.2 for gamecube backups. So I made a backup copy for Wii Super Mario Bros. Wii and I updated through the disk channel. It is now a 4.1u firmware. The Mario game works fine and so does my other wii back ups, but my gamecube back ups just fail. All of them. I believe it was because when I updated, the ciosrev14 didn't get patched but the mios file was patched so it disappeared. The reason is because when I tried to play my gamecube backups, it launches, enters a black screen, and resets the wii. So I tried to repatch it, but thats when the homebrew problem comes in. When I get through the hombrew channel and use something like the patcher, wad manager, or emulators, the wii enters the loading screen, but it never loads. It seems like it freezes, but the hand icon from the remote is still moving.

So I just wanted to know. Is there a way to fix this? Oh. I have a 1GB SD card which had all my old files for homebrew that includes the hack and apps. Do I need to delete them? Or is there a new updated homebrew channel for the 4.1u firmware? I also had some channels saved in the sd card through that new feature. Don't know if that would cause the sd card to be read differently by homebrew. Sorry if I seem like a noob.

Welcome to the forums.

You are correct; all you have to do is re-run the MIOS patcher.

And I did try to re-run the MIOS patcher, but I can't because of the homebrew channel. If I run any program, it just enters the loading screen and "freezes." I mean, I heard that homebrew works better on different firmware like the 3.2u. The homebrew channel I am currently using was from the twilight hack package for the 3.2u firmware back in 2008. Is there a new version of Homebrew for the 4.1u firmware? Is it my sd card thats the problem? Should I try to downgrade?

Okay. So I installed the Hackmi through the smash stack method. I have the latest homebrew channel now, but my wii-mote doesn't sync to my wii anymore. I tried to actually re-sync it but it didn't work. Plus there is that new boot-mi thing that appears when you open the wii. Is there a way to fix this and can i get rid of the bootmii thing?

Nevermind. Tried the wii-mote the next day and everything works perfectly again. That mios patcher ran and so did my other homebrew apps. Loaders is up aand running again and I didn't need to downgrade. I just want to thank Dialexio for being such a great help.

Glad to hear everything's working like a charm.

BootMii is appearing every time you boot up because it detected that your SD card is set up for use with BootMii.

If you don't want BootMii to appear every time you start up your Wii, you can delete the files form the SD card. If you have a spare SD card, I would recommend setting up a spare for use with BootMii.

    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

    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, 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
