Hacking How's the progress on cracking the new Wiis?

[mmik]

My friend has a new one with 3.4U firmware. How far are we, not on getting through 4.0, but through the new Wiis system?

Try the recently released 4.0 downgrade method. It might work on it. It relies on a downgraded version of IOS 35 instead of IOS 16 to downgrade.

 

[mmik]

But the problem isn't the firmware, it's that the system is keeping the wii from running any apps. The only ones that work are various wad managers.

Actually, does this mean it runs apps using IOS35 instead of IOS16, and therefor might run the apps on the newest wii models? (LU64 serial number).

Could I get a link to a topic about it, please?

 

[mmik]

Anyone?

Are the new Wiis running a different hardware chipset to prevent the Twilight hack or something?

you said your friend has 3.4, that's already been doable for a while now the only thing that isn't hacked yet is 4.0 just tell your friend to downgrade to 3.2 easy as that

No, the twilight hack works, but there's something about it that seems to be keeping most apps from running off the homebrew channel. At least from my own experience, the only thing I could get running was the wad manager, of which I could load several IOS files from, but I couldn't get anything like an IOS downgrader to work.

I'm not technically knowledgeable when it comes to Wii hacks, but I do realize some hacks require an Internet connection to function properly (to download files)... could this be your problem?

[ DISCLAIMER ]:

- THIS APPLICATION COMES WITH NO WARRANTY AT ALL, NEITHER EXPRESS NOR IMPLIED.
I DO NOT TAKE ANY RESPONSIBILITY FOR ANY DAMAGE TO YOUR WII CONSOLE
BECAUSE OF AN IMPROPER USAGE OF THIS SOFTWARE

[ DESCRIPTION ]:

- This application allows you to downgrade almost all the versions of the IOS
in your Wii console to it's corresponding versions affected by the Trucha bug.

[ NOTES ]:

- This application does not downgrade the System Menu nor the IOS it uses.
I recommend using the application "Custom IOS Downgrader" to downgrade
your console's firmware, after/before using "IOS Downgrader"

- If the downgrade to an IOS fails, load the application again
The Downgrader retries the new downgrade.

[ REQUIREMENTS ]:

- Custom IOS37 rev 03 or better
- Connection to the internet

 

[mmik]

No, it's set for the internet, but what happens is it just plain boots to a black screen. No access to the programs at all to begin with.

[TidusWulf]

newer wiis have newer code in them that prevent execution of most WAD/IOS modifying software. this is confirmed
