Hacking Yet another brick.. Got boot2, but no backup.

[chelobaka]

I`ve installed Firmware4.0 and IOS60 Patch. It got my wii bricked. It was a stupid thing to do, true.
The good thing is that ive got bootmii installed as boot2. The bad thing is that I dont have NAND backup.
By now i made a backup and read a whole pile of forum, topics, threads and articles trying to find the most confident way to unbrick my console.
Please advice. Whould downgrading be a good option?

get cboot2 with wad manager and install a good IOS60 and then restart and you should be done apart from copying your bootmii folder back to your sd card

reinstall the broken ios?

 

[longtom1]

sorry even easier boot HBC and dop-ios IOS60 and reboot and all should be good

No no do this.

Go to HBC from Bootmii


Run Anytitledeleter DB. Select IOS249

Delete IOS60

Run DOP IOS MODv9 and install IOS60v6174 with sig hash check

 

[longtom1]

there's no need for ATD dop-ios can downgrade it for you

 

[dai-a]

Never knew that.

Thanks

Delete IOS60

A good policy from what I've seen in my very limited time here is to never ever deleted a System Menu IOS.......downgrading/upgrading/replacing/patching is fine, but never delete. I realize that a bricked Wii will not make a difference, but for the sake of others who read this later and think their problem is similar.....its not good to tell anyone to delete.

dop ios mod v9 to reinstall ios60 and system menu 4.1 if need be

use bootmii to launch hbc to launch dim

Ah but that's why I said to re install using DOP IOS MOD.

You should be able to install IOS60 before heading back to the system menu. But there is no point, because I didn't know that DOP IOS MOD can downgrade IOS's. So yeah I guess it wouldn't be smart for someone to delete it and go to the system menu without installing the ios.

Thanx a lot guys! It helped!
I used dop to change IOS60, even need not to delete it before updating.
It`s online again!
