An already modded wii with IOS36 will get any benefit by changing it ot IOS236?

If so, is there a way to restore IOS36 to unpatched state?

The benefits are debatable. You can grab the IOS36 from the update42.zip and install it. Or, if you have wifi, you can use dop-mii, MMM, or NUSD to download and install it.

Thanks and another question:

Why does the guide use IOS236 installer v3 instead of v4?

When editing the file packs last night, I forgot to leave the ios36 in the root for IOS236 Installer. So you will need to download it again. Sorry for any inconveniences.

Ive been very sucessful in the past with your assistance and ur softmod guide. Im currently having fun with my buddies we that he just upgraded to 4.3. Followed the super smash exploit and after pressing stage builder i get a scree than says "there is no save file, unable to load or save data" then if i press the + it locks up and starts a seriously irritating tone. Any thoughts?

Well I tried to install a clean version of IOS 15 and 36 (since they aren't needed anymore) via MMM and downloading from NUS. Even selecting NO at any patches my syscheck still says they have trucha and other patches.

Try this, delete the save files from the wii. Start brawl, exit, go back and copy over the save.

Did you try grabbing them from up42? I'm going to work now, will be back tomorrow if you haven't gotten it yet.

No, I didn't. Just install them with MMM's WAD Manager?

EDIT: Solved, I forgot to tell MMM to use IOS 236... Installed both fine with MMM, downloading them from ninty servers.

Tried that same result, i also redownloaded the latest 4.3 sd card to no avail

Dunno, did you try re-formatting the sd card and re-copying the files? A little later when the wife goes to bed, I will try the files and see if it launches for me. The files could have been corrupted on my end.

QUOTE(Andriko @ Sep 6 2010, 10:37 PM) Why doesn't this guide say how upgrade to 4.3?

Because 4.3 isn't recommended

Metroid : Other M come with IOS36 rev. 3607. or network updated with newest 4.3U comes with IOS36 rev. 3607

If anyone run the IOS236 installer has error.
You can delete the IOS36 file at soft mod package and connect with Wifi get the newest version at net.
After IOS236 installed . just follow the Modify guide.

Thank you

Before you update your console to 4.3U.
Make sure you have SSBB or lego indiana jones disc ready.

otherwise DO NOT upgrade to 4.3.

upgrade can be done by Metroid Other M or Wii network upgrade.

Thank you

My Wii's disc drive recently packed in so I sent it to Nintendo but they sent me a whole new system back. Is there anyway to mod a 4.3E system without Lego Indie? I seem to remember that when I modded 4.1 or 4.2 I could just put a file on the root of the SD card, boot up the SD Card Menu and everything installed. Is there anything like that?

Any reason why the 'remove diagnostic disc check' isn't an option in the priiloader hacks anymore? I think it used to be in the original preloader. Just curious, that's all

Getting error saying IOS222 v65280 and IOS223, IOS248, IOS250 cannot be removed\error removing? I was on part 3 of the 4.3 guide here - http://gbatemp.net/t171901-modify-any-wii-4-3-below

Any ideas guys?? I followed the guide to the letter guys?? Using version 13.2 of Multi Mod Manager.....

I am getting a Ticket (-2011) and Title (-1035) error??

Something didn't go correct in the trucha bug steps. What error message did you get?

-Erik

Hi Erik,
I think that with that Wii someone may have tried to hack it before?? Could this account for the errors?
