Hacking SNEEK+DI quick guide

[NReale3370]

with any DI of sneek you can't use discs so unless you use switch2sneek you'll have to go back to the real nand

 

[moosehunter]

Or you can just use plain SNEEK/UNEEK without the DI module

what is the correct file structure for uneek + di

on the sd card i have

SD
sd/bootmii/arnboot.bin
sd/sneek/kernel.bin


USB
usb/sneek/font.bin
usb/sneek/di.bin
usb/sneek/kernel.bin
usb/sys
usb/import
usb/title
usb/ticket
usb/share1
usb/share2
usb/meta
usb/tmp
usb/games/game name

the game doesnt load in disk channel, what did i do wrong?
not sure what uneek + di does either, figured it loaded the game in the games folder, in diskchannel. i have metroid trilogy in the games folder extracted correctly.
i go to homebrew channel , then click on bootmii, it goes to a black screen, then loads my back up nand. i clicked on disk channel, and it gets a error. as if there was no disk in there.

I bet its the region setting. when the DI menu is up press b, change the region to USA (regardless of the region of game you're trying) and save config, then try loading again, you may need to turn off and on the wii to be sure it took

maybe i did somthing wrong, i dont get a di menu.. >.<
i go to homebrew channel, load bootmii , it goes to a black screen for 6-7 seconds, then loads my backup nand... how do i access the menu?

hey guys, getting back into sneek after a bit, and running into a little trouble... sorry to move backwards again.
i think ive updated all i need to (sneek v120, including the ios60 and ios80 .app's) but getting the 0kb di like some others were getting, not really sure how to fix that.
either a little info on how to solve or point me to where i can find this information... and not "google" cos its not there...

 

[FenrirWolf]

You solve that by updating DevKitARM to r28.

 

[overlord00]

thanks for the speedy reply... will do

edit: thanks, worked like a charm

Should be as simple as pressing 1. For some reason with SNEEK-DI for me i have to hold it a bit, but with UNEEK-DI i have to tap it really quick. If that doesn't work you have bigger problems I'm afraid

Also, if it's a fresh install of devkit 1.0.5 the ARM included will work also. Not for sure which ARM that is but you get what I'm saying.

yea, figured it out awhile ago..

thanks thoe. and yea i gotta tap it 2 times really fast to open it, set region to usa , and now i can enjoy my metroid prime trilogy

On that scratch NAND -- the Shop account on it should be entirely separate from my original one on my real NAND, correct? I don't want to mistakenly lose my download rights, you see.

No the Shop in Sneek uses you real rights. But Nintendo doesn't detect Sneek, nor ban anyone.

I never got the Shop working, though. Always gives me some error code.

Yeah, with the scratch NAND, I never got it to work. It always spits out error code 20435 when trying to connect.

But if the "virtual" NAND never touches my real one, how is it that it has access to my download rights, even though I built it with files from NUS?

 

[DarkMatterCore]

Is anyone else having problems when loading channels on UNEEK+DI? I only get a black screen, even with the HBC. It may work sometimes if I delete the shared2 folder and everything on title00000010000002\data (excluding setting.txt), but it will eventually fail after a while. My 00000088.app was patched using -p on IOSKPatch. Any thoughts?

That's because you copied the "sys" folder from your NAND dump, as far as I know.

The Wii shop probably uses the wii's serial number to ID what you have access to, I doubt it does anything on your real NAND

 

[longtom1]

probably checks the serial number with the MAC address or something

 

[Sonicdude41]

It probably does have something to do with the MAC Address, because when I loaded the "new" NAND, I was still able to connect to our network even though we have MAC Address Filtering enabled.

 

[SanGor]

SNEEK/UNEEK redirect all NAND read/writes from/to SD/USB nothing more nothing less.
Of course it will have the same MAC and about the shop stuff; it is using the device ID and if you don't have a device.cert on your SD/USB device it will fall back to the device ID of the Wii you are running SNEEK/UNEEK on.
