[lamaen]

hey

first let me say im a noob user but anyhow i managed to install homebrew channel placed the apps in the correct folder on my sd card !

I need 2 downgrade from 3.3e to 3.2e and i have tryed the search buttom i downloaded cion downgrader 1.2 and any region changer but here my problems start how 2 use the program i put it on my sd card but i cant seem to find it on my wii machine

What 2 do now ??

Thanks!

Put it on your SD card in a folder called Apps....Sperate folder for downgrader and another for Anyregion changer...Ensure the files for both are renamed to boot.dol then you should be able to detect them and load from HB channel

i already tryed this except the part of remane the files what files do i need to rename

 

[ether2802]

the .dol files, you can have just the .dol, but also can have icon.png and meta.xml, so:
boot.dol
icon.png
meta.xml
are the three you must have

i dont know what i do wrong i can see any other app than those 2 in the root of my sd card i have 3 files named like you say - what else can i do ?

 

[ether2802]

ROOT???? no no no no no they have to be on SD:/apps/cIOS_Downgrader/boot.dol+icon.png+meta.xml
BTW don't use any region changer, it has bricked a few Wii's around here..!!

agreed stick to the custom ios downgrader. pick 3.2 of your region.

put it in the apps folder just like Ether suggested. It could be run from the root I guess if you prefer to run it with twilight hack, but I think you are better off to stick with HBC

ooooh your the king - now i can see the files and i ran the cios downgrader from HB channel- the only thing that happens is my wii 2 reboot - what 2 do next - sorry i know im a noob

do you have a cIOS installed?

 

[lamaen]

i dont think so - everytime i run cios installer it report fail and closes down

install a cIOS, if i'm not mistaken you need to in order to use thecIOS downgrader... hence cIOS in the name

here's cIOS rev. 7(latest version) - http://www.megaupload.com/?d=K9LNBR5Y

someone feel free to correct me if i'm wrong

More details please? Did it reboot your wii as soon as you ran it, or did you actually get to the part where you can pick 3.2 as your new firmware? or..?

 

[lamaen]

it showed a black screen after loading but it didnt come to the part to pick - reboot before i could do anything -- when i run the ios installer shall i chose wad or networking installation

 

[zerof]

That happened to me also, I just used Any Region Changer.

 

[ether2802]

network, the wad installation didn't install properly for me

 

[lamaen]

when installing network in one line it says
Installing ticket--- error! (ret = -2011) in the next line it says succes cios installed succesfully

 

[ether2802]

[lamaen]
