Hacking NOOB PARADISE - ask away

[kylster]

Ok I have a slight delima I'm not even sure where to start troubleshooting either.
I have a launch Wii with bootmii:boot2
I just recently restored with a fresh nand I made on PC using giantpunes sch....... app (even if you take this into consideration I only did this to see if it would fix my problem as the problem did exist before this restore)
I can not get my nand to run past the health screen when running neek2o or any need anymore this is not necessarily a problem cause I can access Priiloader and set it to autoboot installed file or anything else.
When the health screen appears I press (A) and the Wii black screens but if you walk all the way up to the TV it looks like the health screen is burned in but it is not case if I turn the Wii off it's gone. I have tried using ShowMiiWads to install a new IOS+SM, and it ended in failure I'm just kind of stumped
The thing that strikes me odd is I can use a fresh ModMii nand and use it on neek2o while successfully accessing the SM and all it's features. The problem here is the WiiMotes become unsynced the moment I load any games I do not have a problem using ModMii but the only files I'm aware that need to be transfered from my Wii nand-dump is the sys folder. Help would be appreciated but does anyone have an idea why this is happening while using my real nand-dump?

Also the reason why I'm trying to fix this issue is cause I cannot play online while using neek2o but I can if I'm on real nand. I keep getting 53303 (don't quote me on that) error and I would just rather use neek2o. I figure it has to be something to do with the internet but I cannot access the SM to find out.

Thanks in advance.

to access the internet on a ModMii created emunand u should use the same serial as your real nand's when building the setting.txt file.

If I were u I would try getting a fresh ModMii nand working properly with your wiimotes + wifi access, then begin transferring over your savegames, mii's and channels using tools like showmiiwads, Krafter's nand game save restorer (or something like that) or savegame manager gx.

Oh yea, re. your real nand when extracted to a neek compatible emunand, you could try removing the HBC v1.08 from your emunand before loading it to see if that makes a difference. I know HBC v1.08 doesn't work on neek, I don't think it would prevent the wii menu from loading, but it's worth a shot. Another reason why I think this could be the problem is cuz nand dump extracting tools do some renaming to workaround the HBC v1.07+ unique title ID (in fact, I think showmiiwads just fails when it reaches that part of the nand dump), so maybe the workaround is causing problems, but just deleting it from the emunand would get it working assuming that's the problem.

Actaar has a nice app that can even transfer WWVC saves unlike Krafter (who's app is nice and only missing this feature) but it's called Save Finder and it works really nice

GrahamWatts: what trouble are you having with PL3?

EDIT: has anyone heard from scooby lately? he's been absent alot

EDIT: Double post did not notice that sorry could someone merge posts or tell me how to delete one?

presumably you've already read this thread?

Yes I read it but I still have no idea what the flush option means since he does not give a purpose of it. I assume it's not an necessary option for normal users.

@ kylster
my postloader has changed (ios58 ahpbrot) - (sd) ok i wanted emulated nand on usb but i got it on sdhc, i don't care as i have finally got progress thanks to your help.
this must be the emulated nand, yeah? i take it to get games to save to emu nand i need to boot games from postloader first, not from channels or wiiflow?


joyflow wont work just black screen :/ but games play with loadergx and wiiflow via pl3
nswitch don't work black screens still.. did save 2 game saves and i can boot the game save up and i cant see them on real nand so they must be on emu nand.....

if i go pl3/home button on wiimote/options/change uneek nand/cannot open sd://ploader/plneek.dir do you have a link for that please?
is this important ? .
got wii set so power on - autoboot-pl3
can you change themes on pl3 ?

anyone know if these things matter, or whether to not bother fiddling

EDIT: Nevermind, figured it out myself

This is probably not the right place to ask, but Ill ask anyway .

If I want to delete a Wiiware/VC game from my (real) nand, do I simply delete the channel in the wii settings?

I have a wii with an old d2 pro 9wire running 4.3e firmware. It stopped playing the newer backups and the chip is no longer supported so I assumed it was maybe down to the lack of support/firmware updates, so I installed modmii.

I don't have a usb HD so just want to play DVD-r backups, I have priiloader installed and have used the reset button to change the settings, region free etc etc..... and I'm running the DVD-r's on NeoGamma, but I keep getting disc read errors (game disc cannot be read). If they all load in the first place but then crash at different stages each time what could be the problem?

Any suggestions thankfully welcomed!!!

 

[The_Dragons_Mast]

How old is your wii ? It might be that your laser is dieing so having trouble reading backups .

 

[justoon]

It's about 3/4 years, thing is it's doing the same on non-backups and has only started giving this error now. It could be the lens dying but might be down to something else too. When I first loaded modmii the system was forcing me to update until I blocked updates on priiloader.

 

[FIX94]

Yeah then your drive is nearly dead. That can't be something else.

 

[justoon]

Thanks for the advice both of you, will get a new 1

My Wii is modded using ModMii and now I want to sell it unmodded. Is this possible? And if so, how?
Thank you very much in advance!

Basically No

Afaik the only way to remove all traces is a clean nand backup.

What I have:
US launch Wii with original wiikey (1.99 Beta update) on 3.2U system menu

What I want:
I want to update mainly want it for netflix for my other tv BUT I also don't want to lose homebrew or region free capabilities, along with being able to play backups.

Any links to guides would be much appreciated and I will award 1 internet point =D

 

[Luigi2012SM64DS]

good thing you didn't update. grab the netflex wad from modmii and ios 61 (was it?) and it will work

ModMii doesn't have a netflix wad

can netflix be downloaded from the shopping channel? If so, just download the shopping channel and IOS from ModMii's download page 1, then use the shopping channel to install netflix

 

[aliasneo]

Hey guys, thanks for the speedy replies, you're all awesome. I've been out of the scene for a while so all this is relatively new to me. But I'll install ModMii and see how that goes based on this guide http://gbatemp.net/topic/207126-modmii-for-windows/

A couple noob questions to go along with it. I assume Modmii will take care of new games that require the latest updates? As far as I understand, its sort of like a custom firmware?

Yes. It's not available from NUS. Unfortunately the new version of Netflix is really laggy. I downgraded with a bootmii backup (using a wad backup didn't work) to get everything running smooth again.
