Hi,

I wrote a new tool to do different things on a Nand dump of BootMii.

v0.2
- Support of nand-raw and nand-cut
- Select nand-key.bin or keys.bin after open a nand-cut or nand-raw
- Detection of Boot1 version ( just with bootmii dump for now)
- Extract boot1

v0.1
- Extract key in keys.bin
- Extract HMAC Key in nand-hmac.bin
- Extract Nand AES Key in nand-key.bin
- Extract Common-key
- Extract File System but just file (for now)
- Read Boot1 SHA-1
- Read Console ID
- Read NG Private Key
- Read RNG Key
- Read NG ID
- Convert Dump in Raw
- Convert Dump for compatibility with Infectus

Download

...That's all folks...

Oooouuu yesss i like it!!

Now it can open nand.bin generated with betwiin!!!

 

[HiBit]

Cool, i test it.

Edit:
It would be great if i can maximize the program window.

Convert Dump in Raw
- Convert Dump for compatibility with Infectus\

what are these for? i tried to clean a save of my nand.bin from bootmii and from 440mb it became 424mb. What is the benefit??

 

[wiiman123]

Interesting but questionable.

A Nand Raw is a Nand dump without the ECC information, it's for extract all FileSystem (recursivity include) with Zestig Tool!
A Nand for Infectus cuts the Keys.bin at the end of Dump for flash it with the Infectus Modchip!

wow great job, looks nice
can you explain the clean function?
i just tried cleaning my nand.bin, shrunk it from 528mb to 512mb
just testing to see what it removes etc
when i tried to open the cleaned one to examine contents it gave me a 'wrong file size!' error

Woah! That's awesome!

Thanks a lot man, excellent job! You just made BootMii a even better NAND programmer for everyone.

(In my view.)

Looks like a "pimped as hell" version of NANDex, well without the extraction feature. I'll give it a go.

 

[pspmte]

I love ya lol

But how would you restore the nand, this is just a tool from a nand dump.

It would be cool if we could use a previous nand with lets say boot2v3 and it has bootmii to get boot2v4 and then restore that. So we could update boot2 or use a nand dump from a donor which has an older boot2 and fix that.

 

[Ac_K]

Replace boot2 it's on the todo list

Don't worry ^^! If you have any idea, problems, bugs, tell me

And if you have a Korean Nand dump, contact me by MP please!

Well, since I've got an infectus coming (whenever the it actually arrives) then it could help in a great way. I know that many members have infectus chips.

Hell, I'd even pay the OP for the software for features like that. I already have a friends wii that I got to fix, thats the reason why I bought the infectus, but hex editting is kinda a pain in the ass to do and do it right...well at least for someone like me.

There is an app to install BootMii as boot2 on a bricked Wii. Its called Soft-Xavbox-Programmer, and you can get it from here : click here - about half way down there is a link "XavProg", which is what you want.

I dont see anything in that program for specifically writing bootmii to boot2. Can ya point that out to me.

This isn't the first time I've come across that program.

I dunno, I've never used it, just read it was possible with this app.

when i tried to open any nand.bin ( I have 4 dumps from 4 different wiis\all of them are 528Mb) I get an error 'Wrong file size!'. Any idea why?

 

[bula]

I had the same error with one of my dumps that came from an older version of bootmii. Hopefully this will be fixed to work with all nand dump, older and newer.

Thaks. It opened last dump but anything prior to last rev will get that error.

Wait wait... from what it looks like you can use an infectus and a program like this one to read/write to a wii's nands, thus fixing a permabrick? (that would have been nice to know before I paid nintendo to "fix" (replace) my bricked wii)

 

[hotsammysliz]

So im a little unsure as to what exactly this program can do. I would really like a program that can do something to my nand.bin which would allow me to install it onto a different wii. can this program do that?

thanks

 

[Scolor]

Wow this is great!

It's just what I was looking for!

Thanks a lot Ac_K.
