I'm stuck again with Trucha bug restorer 1.11

15. press A (getting rev 3351) ok
16. press A to install (Installing.... done) ok
17. press A to exit ok
18. restart ok

19. press A (IOS36 by default) stuck here it doesn't do anything it's asking me for the ios36 file

So out of fear I did the following
21. select "Restore IOS15"
22. press A (getting IOS15 rev 523)
23. press A to install (Installing.... done)
24. press A to exit

without doing steps 19 and 20

I wanted to retest

everything works up to step 6
at 7. press A for step 1 doesn't work anymore failed

and I no longer have wifi either.

thanks in advance.

regards

put at the root of your sd the ios
* IOS36-64-v3094.wad
and follow the tutorial it's really really well explained you just need to read carefully and be really really careful otherwise risk of bricking

uh no: as I said on page 13, on 4.2 it's "IOS36-64-v3351.wad" that it asks for (v 3351 then, not v 3094 for IOS36").
In the worst case, if both are at the root of your SD, it doesn't break anything!

All the Wads (all of them? is "Wad" masculine or feminine in French?) can easily be retrieved with NUSD (https://www.mediafire.com/?nqjdzmzzjmk)

Important: Before applying the IOS36 patch, you need to activate IOS15 (patched previously) otherwise you'll simply end up with error -2011 (just start over, it doesn't break anything)

ALWAYS do a backup of the WII memory ("nand") beforehand with BOOTMII: backups aren't just for other people!

The tutorial for a black Wii on 4.2 went well (Provided you read EVERYTHING, and respect the software versions used)
I even use USBLoader_GX without problem (v814 in WDFS, version 877 in NTFS doesn't work for me)

Question: inserting Wii Sport Resort or Wii Fit Plus (the only two originals I own) want to do an update before starting, which surprises me for two reasons:
- When I was on the original 4.1 nothing was asked of me
- I switched to 4.2 (the latest to date then). there shouldn't be any more update requests

However, launching these two games from the HDD doesn't ask for an update

I still want to use the DVD drive for the original games. What's the problem? what should I do? (I backed up my nand on 4.2 but I haven't installed Preloader)
in my tutorial you're going to do the step IOS70 then install PRELOADER
On the preloader you set avoid updates confirm with A then save!
there, next time follow the tutorial all the way to the end!

after doing this step you can do another dump of your nand (100% hacked)
ps: don't forget to copy the old one on your pc and delete it afterward...
afterward you can even do the bonus ...

@+

humbly, I read the tutorial all the way through, but as I said, I didn't want at first to install preloader (which I've done since).
my questions are (all related to the preloader, https://wiibrew.org/wiki/Preloader):
- is the update request for the mentioned games normal after all the patches? (i.e: so they don't see that I'm on 4.2? ==> the patches "break" the recognized version?)
- is it enough to enable the update blocking on the preloader and launch the update via the original disc game so the game no longer asks for an update?
- it seems that with the preloader (which I set to bypass at startup) the wii takes longer to start (3 sec I'd say ..)
- do the preloader files need to stay on the sd (not the patches but the program?: is it installed on the wii's nand?)
- isn't the preloader partially redundant with bootmii? (I'll pre-answer no: the preloader in case of a crash lets you launch the homebrew channel and thus bootmii to restore the nand)

hello,
I need help hacking my Wii (I think mostly from a psychological point of view) because I've never done this and the wii is new.
What advice would you give me before I start my hack?
What precautions should I take?
Are there real brick risks by following the tutorial?
(Black wii 4.2E serial N° LEH5070XXXXXXX)

Thanking you in advance for a reply

you enable block game updates on the preloader then save!
when you insert a dvd with an update inside the wii doesn't see it...
there you go

- it seems that with the preloader (which I set to bypass at startup) the wii takes longer to start (3 sec I'd say ..)
normal...

- do the preloader files need to stay on the sd (not the patches but the program?: is it installed on the wii's nand?)
the hacks.ini file is integrated into your wii's nand just like the preloader.

- isn't the preloader partially redundant with bootmii? (I'll pre-answer no: the preloader in case of a crash lets you launch the homebrew channel and thus bootmii to restore the nand)
I'd say they're complementary and important especially in the case of bootmii in ios!

there, I've answered your questions! if you have any other questions I'll be happy to answer see you

avoid capital letters "it's like shouting on a forum"

* you're going to launch the preloader, reset while turning on the wii
* you disable the hacks.ini and save

then do system menu!
if everything's fine! it's because you enabled several hacks that are incompatible with each other...
if you have an unreadable white message....
the solution is to re-patch IO70 ...

there, then don't forget to redo a nand backup of your properly hacked wii!

lol the preloader launches by itself!

*you're not going to uninstall it but hide it by telling it to launch the system menu at startup...
for that you launch it then go to setting then set:

autoboot to system menu
and return to: system menu you save and there you go!!! see you

Hello,

I've tried a ton of tutorials..and nothing works...

I just followed this tutorial for the 4.2E..

it doesn't work better than before...even worse...

I no longer have the channels, it boots straight to the text menu or to the HBC.
(I'm going to try a solution found on this site)

and above all I still have my error 342..

And of course since I'm a total idiot, I didn't make a NAND backup before all these steps

White Wii bought on 12/22/2009 serial: LEH27978

OS 4.0E originally, updated by me to 4.2E

If someone can help me...

Post by **akineage** » Wed 30 Dec 2009 14:01

This Tutorial is really well made, thanks to its author.
Just a little question, which choice between preloader0.30 and priiloader?

thanks in advance for the answer

did you already install bootmii in boot2 or ios? and the text file is the preloader right?

Yes Bootmii is Boot2 (had no choice, purple line)

And yes it's the preloader that I see, one time out of 2..or the HBC (the content)

For info if I launch an Original game via Wii Gator 0.3 it launches perfectly.
But a copy doesn't work.
