Problem with Wii Shop Channel So half a year back I was on 3.4U, and I got into homebrew at that point. I used the twilight hack and installed dvdx, homebrew channel, gekko, and some other stuff I can't remember. Sometime in february, I found out that the wii shop channel doesn't work anymore and required me to update, so instead I used Tona's shop updater and got it working. Yesterday, I found wii's shop channel stopped working again, so I tried the same shop updater again but afterwards instead of asking me to update the system, when I load the channel it just reboots back into the wii menu. Basically, I'm looking for a new shop updater, is there one available that works? What should I do? I feel like I messed up my wii somehow, so I was thinking about just using system update and going to 4.0 then using bannerbomb, but with the current stuff installed I'm afraid it might make things worse. Is there a way to completely revert the wii back to it's pristine, unmodded state? Is it recommended or necessary? Sorry about all that, but all this wii softmodding and IOS this and that is so confusing. I'm still trying to figure it all out.http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?21,24301,24301#msg-24301Mon, 09 Mar 2026 10:40:49 +0100 Phorum 5.2.23 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?21,24301,69059#msg-69059 Re: Problem with Wii Shop Channelhttp://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?21,24301,69059#msg-69059 FaddyMcJesus Homebrew GeneralSun, 01 Jan 2012 17:14:39 +0100 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?21,24301,69058#msg-69058 Re: Problem with Wii Shop Channelhttp://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?21,24301,69058#msg-69058DOP-Mii can only brick if you remove the System Menu or its IOS.]]> bg4545 Homebrew GeneralSun, 01 Jan 2012 13:07:36 +0100 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?21,24301,69057#msg-69057 Re: Problem with Wii Shop Channelhttp://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?21,24301,69057#msg-69057 FaddyMcJesus Homebrew GeneralSun, 01 Jan 2012 13:04:13 +0100 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?21,24301,69047#msg-69047 Re: Problem with Wii Shop Channelhttp://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?21,24301,69047#msg-69047 tueidj Homebrew GeneralSat, 31 Dec 2011 14:42:00 +0100 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?21,24301,69045#msg-69045 Re: Problem with Wii Shop Channelhttp://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?21,24301,69045#msg-69045 FaddyMcJesus Homebrew GeneralSat, 31 Dec 2011 12:19:41 +0100 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?21,24301,36117#msg-36117 Re: Problem with Wii Shop Channelhttp://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?21,24301,36117#msg-36117 TopGun96 Homebrew GeneralFri, 02 Oct 2009 04:59:49 +0200 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?21,24301,36105#msg-36105 Re: Problem with Wii Shop Channelhttp://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?21,24301,36105#msg-36105 darklink Homebrew GeneralFri, 02 Oct 2009 03:27:36 +0200 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?21,24301,35976#msg-35976 Re: Problem with Wii Shop Channelhttp://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?21,24301,35976#msg-35976

in case Nintendo ever decides to brick people's Wii's with 4.1..
I'm very, very, very sick of hearing this idea. Nintendo will never intentionally brick your Wii. If they do, you can sue them. (And they know that.)

so people can sue nintendo about the 4.2 bricks, cool :)

No. They didnt intentionally brick anyone's wii, they just made crap code which resulted in bricks. And as for the error 003 thing - i have no idea what thats about, have just heard people mention it, not sure if thats a brick or what...]]> SifJar Homebrew GeneralThu, 01 Oct 2009 19:03:35 +0200 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?21,24301,35857#msg-35857 Re: Problem with Wii Shop Channelhttp://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?21,24301,35857#msg-35857

I highly doubt Nintendo will ever intentionally brick Wiis because they have HBC, but still I'd advise getting BootMii and a NAND dump just in case. However, if Nintendo do decide to brick Wiis, they'll have a lot of problems on their hands. It'll probably be much easier for them not to.]]> SifJar Homebrew GeneralThu, 09 Jul 2009 22:36:28 +0200 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?21,24301,24307#msg-24307 Re: Problem with Wii Shop Channelhttp://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?21,24301,24307#msg-24307

You can use WiiSCU to update channels with the required IOS.

...or just update to 4.0. There's no point in stating on 3.4. 4.0 has more features and you lose nothing in terms of homebrew.]]> SifJar Homebrew GeneralThu, 09 Jul 2009 22:31:31 +0200 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?21,24301,24305#msg-24305 Re: Problem with Wii Shop Channelhttp://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?21,24301,24305#msg-24305I might reinstall DVDx (assuming 4.0 stops the older version from working) and new gekko loader (whatever it's called now) and maybe bootmii, since it sounds like it's a good idea to backup the NAND in case Nintendo ever decides to brick people's Wii's with 4.1.

Or am I just overthinking it? I'm happy that the HBC still works though. One less problem to deal with.]]> Sanjiyan Homebrew GeneralThu, 09 Jul 2009 22:30:42 +0200 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?21,24301,24304#msg-24304 Re: Problem with Wii Shop Channelhttp://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?21,24301,24304#msg-24304

Uh... nevermind. I should've checked the "getting started" section. It totally just answered my question. 4.0 + WiiSCU + bannerbomb and new DVDx and reinstalling Homebrew channel here I come.

Uh, what? If you update to 4.0, you need NONE of that stuff. Except perhaps the new dvdx, but it isnt necessary. WiiSCU is only useful on lower firmwares as it allows you to install parts of the 4.0 update, and if you're on 4.0, you have it all. Bannerbomb lets you install HBC, which you already have so you dont need that. New dvdx, isnt really necessary, the old one is fine, although you may as well update. Reinstalling HBC is VERY unnesssecary as you will still have HBC.]]> SifJar Homebrew GeneralThu, 09 Jul 2009 22:26:03 +0200 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?21,24301,24302#msg-24302 Re: Problem with Wii Shop Channelhttp://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?21,24301,24302#msg-24302 Sanjiyan Homebrew GeneralThu, 09 Jul 2009 22:26:00 +0200 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?21,24301,24301#msg-24301 Problem with Wii Shop Channelhttp://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?21,24301,24301#msg-24301
