Hacking Priiloader not working (PLEASE HELP)

[icebrg5]

I'll try it, but I just can't find a place to download it. Is it a download?

I still have a couple problems.

1. I don't have a GameCube controller. I'll try to get one, though.

2. I don't know how a wii game would need an update if it's on a disc, but how do I know which ones do?

I have Skyward Sword, and there's some glitch that requires a downloadable channel to fix. Would that do it?

savemiifrii is not a download. All you need is a gamecube controller to try it out.

The update on the wii disc updates your wiis ios files if they need updating. Newer games require newer versions of ios files.

Not sure what games have the 4.3 update on them but they would be first party titles made by nintendo. So i would recommend
trying to find the latest released games by nintendo for the wii.The newer the game the better chance it has 4.3 on it.

EDIT:

It looks like skyward sword does have a 4.3 update on it.

Also the 4.3 system menu update was released on June 21, 2010.
So any major release game from nintendo after that date should technically have the 4.3 update on the disc.It's not 100% guaranteed though but there is a good chance of it.

It's a built in "glitch" type thing in the wii? Sounds cool, but if I need SM IOS to work, I'm not sure if I have it. So if I DON'T, I'd be wasting my money on a new gamecube controller. I hope it works...

You never did say if you found out for sure if you had bootmii as boot2 on your wii.

If you do have bootmii as boot2 then you don't even need to try the savemiifrii method.

I explained how to get the bootmii files on your sd card in an earlier post in this thread.

If the version of the theme is there then it must serve as a purpose, 4.1, 4.2 and 4.3.
Also installing themes is beyond stupidity unless you know EVERYTHING is working, including bootmii.

EDIT: If you have bootmii installed as boot2 you can still recover it, if not well then you'll have to install a modchip, burn a autoboot disc and use the savemiifrii method.

Well, a while ago, I sent a message to Nintendo explaining my wii was bricked, and they said they want me to call them to explain more details. Should I do it? What would they say? Would they get mad for having the HBC?

If you mention anything about homebrew they will not fix it. Also if you don't say anything to them and decide to take a chance to send it in and get it fixed they will see that its modified with homebrew and they will send it back to you in the same condition you sent it to them in.

So do you have bootmii as boot2 or not? You seem to be avoiding that question for some reason.

They're expecting a call. What exactly should I say? Why would they not fix it? Should I not call back at all?

Anyway, I'm not sure how to see if I have bootmii/boot2.

I was successful once in sending in a bricked Wii. I said I just turned it on one day and just a black screen and told them I had tried different av cables and went through all the troubleshooting. That was years ago though when Nintendo wasn't really educated on the HBC and I believe I got lucky but I suppose you could try I think all they do is send it back not repaired.

They will not fix it because they will see that its been modified.
You might not be able to access the wii because of the theme brick but nintendo will be able to see what you have done to the wii.

I wouldn't even bother calling them back and even if it wasn't modified you would end up paying $75 i believe for an out of warranty repair.
You could get a used wii from craiglist,ebay, gamestop ext... for half that probably.

To check for bootmii as boot2 do the following.

Use modmii and then goto downloads page #2 and build the bootmii sd files.

After you download them transfer them to your sd card and then insert the sd card into the wii when its off. Then turn the wii on.
If you have bootmii as boot2 then bootmii will load. If you don't have bootmii as boot2 then nothing will happen.

Try any other way first and only send it to Nintendo if you are desperate enough if you have to pay for repairs then screw that just go to a pawn shop and get a different one.

Where can I get ModMii?

Is there a way to see if I do, in fact, have a system menu IOS?

 

[icebrg5]

Not really since all you get is a black screen.

Get a gamecube controller and try savemiifrii or try like i suggested earlier and check to see if you do in fact have bootmii as boot2.

Look for one of my previous posts on how to do that.

Is there a way to see if I do, in fact, have a system menu IOS?

 

[brausm08]

there's an easy way to check for bootmii/boot2.
with no sd card or game in the console, turn it on. if you have bootmii/boot2, the drive light will give two quick flashes.

...if your system menu worked up until you added a theme with mymenuify, then your SM IOS should be intact...unless of course you intentionally deleted it in the same HBC session prior to using mymenuify

 

[KTBMedia]

I'm pretty sure I don't have bootmii/boot2. I found a thread that has a list of serial numbers as well as whether or not that one is vulnerable, and when I found mine, it was not vulnerable.

As for what Brausm08 said, I didn't even know it was possible to delete a menu altogether, and even if I did, I have no reason to do so if I'm going to replace it anyway. So that means all I need now is a gamecube controller and a tri-wing screwdriver....Correct?

 

[KTBMedia]

All right guys, I just bought a GameCube controller!

However, it came from gamestop, and is a gamestop brand. I'm not sure if that would still work though. I'm about to try the method anyway.

 

[KTBMedia]

So I tried it last night. I took apart the controller, plugged it into the fourth port, held down all four D-pad buttons, turned it on, waited until the version showed up in the corner, and put the game in. But nothing happened. Could someone help?
