Hacking How to Avoid Bricks on Wii 4.1...

[thecyanaura]

what's the problem? you ask as if you've just bricked your wii. If you don't like preloader, uninstall it.

this whole triple posting nonsense is rude - it makes those of us who come to the forums with a legitimate question or concern and ask politely look bad.

Triple post isn't a glitch most of the time its to do with your router, Mostly when im on my wii if it doesn't fully load and it hangs are just keep reloading the page, Thus a tripple post.

Anyways Preloader if you cant get bootmii boot2, And Bootmii as ios if you have Gamecube Controller.

Also does A infectus chip realy protect you against Bricks? Would like a pm or someone to reply Would be interested in it.

And im sure Preloader has a un-installation guide????? Sorry i can't be of help as i don't need preloader, but DON'T UNINSTALL UR SYSTEM MENU IOS BECAUSE U WANT PRELOADER GONE. Just putting that because ive seen many threads on it L.
Also, Common sence is the best thing but you can't stop powercuts with common sence

Thanks, Alex.

I guarantee you will brick your wii sooner or later.
It's simple don't do anything flashy just for the hell of it or to play games through the disc channel.
Install preloader if you plan on installing wad files just incase you get a bannerbrick.
Also don't delete ios or anything you don't know about.

 

[phoenix345]

so basicly, i'm screwed and I have to put up with long ass boot and return times?

 

[BoxShot]

Long ass boot my ass it only takes like what 3 -5 secs to boot up. >.>

 

[ChokeD]

Never delete anything, you CAN install over it, you CAN install over anything of the same in an upgrade, but don't ever delete, ever, ever, ever.

Dude, you're an unappreciative moron. You come to us asking how to protect your Wii from bricks. PreLoader with BootMii boot2v4 is the best and only option aside from a mod chip.

If you don't like it-- GTFO (or go write your own).

And as previously stated-- your bold and caps are getting highly annoying. Keep up the attitude and someone might be nice enough to link you to a guide to brick your Wii. =)

rofl long boot times with preloader....how many days before he comes back with a i bricked my wii help post ?

Thank you also dude why can't u install bootmii?

 

[Liquidfire]

actually, I don't like the usb game channels...

BUT, I hate this program!!! I set autoboot to system menu and return to system menu when when I start my wii it TAKES FOREVER TO LOAD UP THE STUPID WARNING SCREEN. and when I do a return to wii menu it TAKES FOREVER TO GO BACK TO THE MENU! WTF?

Did you try and use the setting to bypass the warning screen? My preloader only takes 3-5 seconds as most people describe...I really dont even notice the extra time truthfully.

 

[phoenix345]

well no i didn't skip the health screen, but i don't see how that would help. well anyway oh well i to wait forever to go back to my wii menu while playing a game, but at least my wii won't get bricked...

In response to the Infectus chip question, it doesn't actually prevent you from bricking. What it does allow is you to load your NAND backup onto the chip (yes, load your own firmware to the chip) so you can load your system menu and fix things. It's basically like a chip which gives boot2-like restore option. You do need your own NAND backup from YOUR Wii though, via any NAND dump -- or you'll just endlessly brick yourself.

To the OP, disabling the health check will get you a couple of seconds on the boot process. Without boot2, Preloader is all you got. Also, NUSD works in WINE on Macs. Just about any "windows only" app from the Wii scene will run on a Mac via WINE/XOVER.
