Hacking [NEW] Wii_DVD_Tool_ISO_Loader_0.2_WinALL-SYNDiCAT

[spas]

So if somebody wanted to make this permanent they could drill I hole into the Wii and use a nice black rim to make it look neat and have the cable sticking out.

Hmm seems a lot of hassle but hey it will improve hopefully!

 

[mr_ding]

Any pic of the finished cable? (just for reference for those who want to try making it)

ITs my parallel port , my friend just got it running

Yes it works fine, detect when you insert the backup and patched the fw on the fly

But yup, you gotta use a capacitator on the 4 pad or else you will only get out of sync messages

I get the following errors when I run dvdtool:

cn302_poke_byte out of sync
cn302_peek_byte out of sync
cn302_write_byte out of sync
cn302_read_byte out of sync

It's like a list of them, because it keeps attempting to do whatever it's supposed to.

any idea what to do?

i keep getting this error

cannot open paralllel port driver


anyone know what to do??

something to do with windows. google it.

sounds like what Pacote said about needing to install a capacitor at pin 4...

 

[ancient_imhotep]

well, once you've installed the cable, and run the program, can you disconnect the cable, and continue to run iso's?


no u have to have the pc connected as well as having program open.

Oh god, CAN'T YOU READ?!

You connect your Wii's DVD drive to your PC, flash it's firmware with this utility and put it back in your Wii, presumably forever. Now, which part is hard to understand?

Can a moderator delete unnecessary posts? Thanks.

@MaHe: In answer to your question about deleting unnecessary posts, I think your post above should be the first candidate to be deleted - you talk a load of crap and are creating mis-information. Maybe you should learn to "READ", as I see nothing in the NFO that even suggested half the stuff you claimed it would do.

ok so thats pin 1, on the parallel port??

also as for the diodes, i haven't done this for ages so I was wondering about the diodes i put in, are they the right way (given that I don't need one of them)

lmao *saved*

 

[modshroom128]

does this work???
has anyone tested it!!11!!

 

[jaxxster]

yeh it works ans its been tested, for what its worth tho id rather have a modchip in my wii, seems like a lot less hassle.

 

[Pacote]

FINALLY GOT IT WORKING!!!! hauah after having my 4 pad fucked up, i was able to sold directly into the panasonic chip leg, and using a capacitator i got the thing running

Will try with a longer cable now

 

[FAST6191]

Been following this for a while now and it seems like my kind of mod, thanks for sharing Pacote and thanks to all that went and tested it.

@jaxxster this is a couple of wires and basic components (hell I can make a small capacitor with kitchen materials) versus some slightly more complex stuff (PICs and PIC programming is fairly high level stuff compared to this). Hopefully it will work with a USB to parallel adaptor as my new machine seems to lack a port.

erm..that looks wrong...the line part is where the CATHODE is which is '+'. Current flows from the Anode to the Cathode or from the - to the +.
so something like this


WII - ------I>|----- + PC (Parallel Port)

i might be wrong, someone verify?

 

[andreq]

The line part is the Negative...

 

[imgod22222]

Hmm... can someone pls post a video tut of this? feeling semi-reluctant. How much soldering is done to the Wii itself? and (ULTRA DUMB QUESTION) instead of using solder, can you use electrical tape to tape a stripped end of wire to the contact (if there's enough room, or is there definately not enough room?) I haven't opened it up yet. Now if there's ever going to be a firmware flasher, i think it'd be via weird cable like this.

 

[Scorpei]

I do not think of this as useless... some people might try just for the fun of it

Well.. the cable is ready. will soon solder to the wii (have to take you the previous solded socket first)

[]'s

Can you tell me what diodes you used?

 

[moep]

Just use 1N4148 diodes and you will be fine.

 

[unusername]

i checked a lot of this cable but...

can u upload more pics of cable/pads to solder

and the another question... i don't understand where it will be 18 (GND)


Thanx

(i want to buy the connector and diodes to do it in my wii)

 

[mikeosoft]

does this work on all model wii's d2b and the others?
