Hacking USBLoader GX stuck on initializing usb drive

[JustAguyWhoNeedsHelp]

ok so i really need help about this because first, i wasted my 2 days ( today and yesterday ) just to play the games that i dont have, second is; i tried out some stuff, at first i was getting the ''waiting for hdd'' error on usb loader gx i fixed it from the posts posted on this forum. but now im getting stuck on the initializing usb drive. My wii is a pal wii 4.3E , please let me know if u need more info to fix this problem and if so tell me what to do tho because i've never done these stuff.
( All i wanted to do was getting sum free gamez :c)
(Also sorry if i reply lately because i can't open my pc rn so im using my bro's pc)

1) Run a syscheck and post it here
2) What are you using to load the games? Hard drives are the best method; flash drives are extremely unreliable when it comes to Wii backup loading. Fat32 is the recommended format for the drive as well.

I'll be doing the syscheck thing (thanks for fast reply btw) i got 8gb sandisk usb and it is formatted as fat32 and by the program that im using to load the games (if i didnt understand what u said wrong) im using wii backup manager build 78

sorry this might take a time since my wii is at downstairs and i tried to open syscheck on homebrew by using sd card it didnt show up?

Didn't mean that but was going to ask that next
Is the USB still in the Wii? The homebrew channel probably switched to USB read mode.
Press 1 (or 2, can't ever remember) on homebrew channel and switch to SD loading

 

[JustAguyWhoNeedsHelp]

nope the usb wasn't plugged on

--------------------- MERGED ---------------------------

well i didn't try pressing anything since nothing showed up but ill go and try that (sorry for being slow)

 

[Illuminaticy]

If nothing is showing, like no apps at all, pop SD in and out, reload homebrew channel.

If it's just the syscheck app, did you put it in the apps folder? Did you unzip it before putting in apps folder?

The only thing I would change is IOS 249 and 250, from rev 21010 to rev 65535
If you used the d2x cIOS installer app, these are the settings you should put in;

Select cIOS: v10 beta52 d2x-v10-beta52
Select cIOS base: 56
Select cIOS slot: 249
Select cIOS version: 65535


Select cIOS: v10 beta52 d2x-v10-beta52
Select cIOS base: 57
Select cIOS slot: 250
Select cIOS version: 65535

It is probably just the flash drive, as I said above they're pretty crappy on Wii. Here is what I would, in order.
Change your ciOS

Try USB Loader GX after changing IOS, if it doesn't work, try WiiFlow (seems to work "better" with flash drives.)

If it's still not working, you can format the drive to WBFS format with Wii Backup Manager under "tools". If you chose to do this, the flash drive will ONLY be read by the Wii, and Wii Backup Manager. Windows can NOT read WBFS format. This may not change anything, but I've had people with flash drives get it to work this way, as a last effort kind of thing. Changing your IOS and trying WiiFlow should be 1st though, this is not the ideal route to go

i used d2x cIOS installer and did some stuff that i dont even know , also i tried wiiflow before but it was before i changed some stuff on cios thing and wiiflow had a screen with a text that i dont really remember now

 

[Illuminaticy]

Follow this guide, you only need to do 249 and 250.

 

[JustAguyWhoNeedsHelp]

ok so i did chande cIOS and usbloader didn't work again and wiiflow ; when i opened it up it gave me this error '' No partitions found''

 

[Illuminaticy]

You're using port 0 correct?
If your wii is standing up, it's the left port
If your wii is laying down, it's the bottom port

I would format it to WBFS with Wiibackup manager, if it still doesn't work, the flash drive is incompatible

And what did USB loader say?
What version of Usb Loader are you using?

 

[JustAguyWhoNeedsHelp]

i got usb loader 3.0 and yea i am using port 0 but how is sandisk not compatible? ill try to use another disk and if it doesnt work ill try to format with backup manager

It's not sandisk, it's ALL flash drives. They are not stable, not meant for backup loading. Do some reading on here/google, you'll see 1000's of people with issues, we could go through every little thing, change every little setting known to man, and it all boils down to shitty flash drives. Everyone who normally helps with Wii problems will tell you the same exact thing I'm telling you, they are garbage on Wii.

 

[JustAguyWhoNeedsHelp]

this will take a time tho because i need to do something really fast

 

[Illuminaticy]

this will take a time tho because i need to do something really fast

do what you need to do lol, I'll be around

Another thing you could do, without the USB connected, go to USBLoaderGX Settings> loader's settings > Loader's IOS: 58 (if it's not already set to 58)

 

[JustAguyWhoNeedsHelp]

im trying to use another usb also ill go down to do that

--------------------- MERGED ---------------------------

there was boot ios or something and it was on 249 but when i tried to set it to 58 it gave an error about checking if i have it installed
