Hey, so recently I updated to 4.3U to buy and play rockband 3, and just yesterday I decided to hack my wii.
Got everything done, and had my friend (whos a much bigger whiz at hacking than I am) install some IOS things to install USB loader GX. All was good and great until we decided to play rock band 3 again from the Disc Channel.
It was forcing me to update again! But I'm already at 4.3U (My wii says so in wii settings!) At first I was really confused, but after a while I remembered we installed these IOS things to have USB loader work, and maybe tampering with those causes the wii to "think" its not updated. Probably something nintendo implemented to get rid of HBC.
Now I asked on another forum and they said taking the update would NOT delete my HBC, so I wouldn't have to re-hack my wii.
Thing is, updating changes and removes and installs IOS's and such, does it not? So technically wouldn't it render USB loader inoperable again? I don't want to have to go through the IOS installation process every time I want to play a backed-up game again.
Now my friend got Rock Band 3 to work by "directly" loading from the DVD, and that was fine and dandy, but my disc channel is still there imploring me to update, and I have siblings who would not even think twice before updating the wii.
Big Question here is: Is there a way to work around the the "forced update" on my wii so it won't show up on the disc channel? Like maybe a way of "tricking" my wii into thinking it has all the right files from 4.3U, even though it doesn't?
And please try to use layman's terms with me, I can get by with computer terms, but hacked-wii terms are stil pretty new to me.
Oh and thanks again for the help guys.
