WiiKey update 1.9g released

[sbygel]

Where can you see the version of your wiikey?

Well, I just checked the only Setup disc I ever burned. It was 1.2.

Thats the config disc which is version 1.2. Is there any way to see the firmware version of the chip?

When the update says testing - then SUCCESS. Is that the end of the update? I've never updated my chip before, so I want to make sure I'm not turning it off and skipping something when I shouldn't be.

EDIT:: Nevermind. I can't believe I didn't know to hit the reset button again to flash. I'm an idiot, but an idiot who's playing Galaxy RIGHT NOW!Â

there is a REASON it says testing

Not that I know of. Why should it matter? If you know it's not 1.9g, just burn the update and run it. Then just remember that it's now 1.9g. Simple.

It's not like it needs to be a certain version to update it anyway. Like it's already been said. The update just rewrites the whole firmware.

Cheers CYatta, I need to update my nephews Wii and I have no idea what version he´s running thats why I asked

Well, it's here. I just woke up, and this may seem weird, but before turning on my PC, I dreamed that Wiikey had indeed come up with an SMG update. Imagine my surprise (and near heart attack) when this popped up.

I'm no longer dreaming, am I?

 

[topboy]

I knew it was gonna be a week! Updated. Now i gotta get SMG

 

[Taka]

A friend also did the update and they selected the reset button after the update had completed. Does it matter whether you hit reset or power off after the update?

works with wiikey clone? my wiikey is 1.3 clone.. i have to do something special to work?

I'm kind of nervous! Seems like some GBAtempers had "brick" the Wii after updating Wiikey. So here is my question:

After the message "reboot galaxy", should I press the reset or power button? This is the only time when they ask to do something like this, or there are other orders/steps to follow? I did't update my Wiikey because of it, so here I am waiting for answers, please!

Uh-oh, sorry for my writing, south america user!

press a on your gamecube pad or press reset. i think you can also press power it doesnt matter since wiikey has a recovery mode

Exactly. When it says reboot galaxy hit the A button on your GC controller and it will reset your wii for you.

I used the GameCube pad during the update process. "A" button once to test the update and "A" button after the test in order to run the update. But after the update had finished, I pressed A again but nothing happened, so I selected reset. I'm just hoping I didn't mess anything up.

Ok, I have a GC Controller! There are other steps to follow? Like turn off or reset the console besides that "Reboot Galaxy"? Thank you in advance guys!

Woot!?

I didn't think they would release it so soon!

 

[koolpre]

I hit the Power button when the "Reboot Galaxy" appears. The system just shuts down and I just turn it back on. Works fine. Updated from original firmware to 1.9g.

 

[Jaems]

Oh shit. I just updated straight to 1.9g without updating to 1.9b.
Everything still works fine, including the 1.3 Config disc.
Normal?
I still have to try SMG though.

 

[laurenz]

Upgraded, did the MP3 trick because I didn't want the duplicate channels. Works flawless!

 

[modshroom128]

sry if this is a noob question... which should i burn the wiikey update to... a dvd-r or a cd-r?

I'm pretty sure my "genuine" wiikey is a clone, seeing as I paid £5 ($10) for it.

Works fine.
