Hacking I have a problem

[mylesmadness]

Well, I had my wii hacked(Dont ask me what I changed, I don't remember) I got the homebrew channel install and a couple other things(again dont remember). Then it got updated to 4.2 and lost all the hacks. Now I dont care about it being hacked anymore, but I just need to be able to update it freely without error codes and stuff. Is this possible?

Edit: Me stupid, I did end up updating to 4.3, but the shop channel wont update. Im guessing I need to go rent a game and hack the wii again?

What error code? You updated to 4.2, why would any other updates be any different.

 

[mylesmadness]

Error code 32017. I have no homebrew channel or anything, I really need to get this fixed.

run an exploit and reinstall homebrew channel

run IOS236 installer

run MMM and change IOS to 236

reinstall all non-stub IOS under 200 with no patches

install system menu 4.1

try online update again

You're basically saying to downgrade it to update again. Looks like a brick risk...

32017 = Update failure. Do you have priiloader or startpatch (imagining no since you say it lost it's hacks) installed? The "Block Online Updates" hack forces the wii to do this if enabled.

Unless you have one of the games required to install the Homebrew Channel on a 4.3 Wii, I do not recommend getting it to update on its own. Try reinstalling the Homebrew Channel using bannerbomb and the latest HackMii Installer; ModMii can help you do this. Once you have the latest version of the Homebrew Channel installed (1.0.8), you can try again to get your Wii to update (version 1.0.8 of the Homebrew Channel is immune to the 4.3 update) or update your Wii with ModMii.

As for getting your Wii to update, make sure you do not have Priiloader or Startpatch installed. Try holding down the reset button at the system menu and see if it brings you into the Priiloader settings. Reinstalling the system menu with ModMii will erase any Priiloader or Startpatch installations.

i was reinstalling system menu to remove priiloader or startpatch

when using MMM and reinstalling all non-stub IOS there will not be problem with brick

Then why install 4.1 over 4.2? He has 4.2 already, and it works except for the updater. A new 4.2 SM would be fine to remove startpatch. If he had priiloader, you don't even need to remove it. Just turn off the hacks. The official update would take care of removal.

But it won't fix this issue either. And yes, it CAN brick if one fails to install correctly (especially the SM IOS).

Yes, but if the non-stubbed v6174 failed to install for some reason, he'd have a brick. While it is unlikely it would brick, there's still a risk. The odds are probably 1 in 10000 that'd an install would fail for no good reason, but I've seen it.

The original point that I was trying to make (and I probably could have been a bit more clear) was that the steps you recommended were overkill for such a simple problem. You should always try the simplest and safest things first.

I don't suppose you've simply tried doing it again? Maybe a download failed or something on your connection and it may work on a subsequent try?

Cause if an update to 4.2 removed all your homebrew at the time and you've done nothing else, I don't know why you'd have any problems with 4.3.

I agree, if he took an update to 4.2 he does not have priiloader hacks to disable. Probably just a server issue.

I've tried multiple times on multiple days, its not just the servers.

Turns out im stupid and the update did go to 4.3 after all. Now I can't update for the store channel, im guessing I need to go rent a game and hack the wii again?
