Re: Bricked wii 4.3E Hey i have accedantily bricked my wii. at first it was on firmware 4.3e (i live in holland) and then with the wad installer of multi-mod manager i installed the olD 4.1e firmware which bricked my wii. i still have to try the gc-D-pad-method for putting in a new firmware. i have installed Priiloader but dont know or cant acces it. in Priiloader i enabled 3 hacks: disable disc update, disable online update and region free EVERYTHING NOTE: when i press the on/off button on my wii i dont get a black screen, webpage-looking text of whatever. the light just goes on, and thats it Q 1: what can i do besides the gc-d-pad-method to put in a new firmware? Q 2: what will i lose when i upgrade and what will be saved by Priiloader? Q 3: is there a safer way? Q 4: how can i make sure this will never ever happen again (afterwards) greets jeroen, holland BTW: sorry for bad englishhttp://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?22,68243,68243#msg-68243Sun, 10 May 2026 23:41:17 +0200 Phorum 5.2.23 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?22,68243,70306#msg-70306 Re: Bricked wii 4.3Ehttp://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?22,68243,70306#msg-70306 mdbrim FixMiiSat, 21 Apr 2012 21:36:57 +0200 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?22,68243,70303#msg-70303 Re: Bricked wii 4.3Ehttp://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?22,68243,70303#msg-70303 punkydudester FixMiiSat, 21 Apr 2012 03:45:11 +0200 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?22,68243,68537#msg-68537 Re: Bricked wii 4.3Ehttp://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?22,68243,68537#msg-68537had Priiloader. As it installs itself in place of part of the System Menu, when you uninstalled that, you also uninstalled Priiloader.

You should NEVER use WADs for themes. If you insist on using themes, use CSMs made with MyMenu/ThemeMii and install with MyMenuify. That way you will still be able to access Priiloader even if you screw up.

But like tueidj said, you'll have to buy a new one. Alternatively if you took a NAND dump at some point, you may be able to find someone somewhere that could use a hardware NAND programmer to fix your Wii for you. But this would also cost money, and you'd probably have to send your Wii to a stranger over the internet. An individual known as DeadlyFoez used to offer this service, not sure if he still does or not.]]> SifJar FixMiiSun, 13 Nov 2011 14:08:02 +0100 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?22,68243,68529#msg-68529 Re: Bricked wii 4.3Ehttp://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?22,68243,68529#msg-68529 tueidj FixMiiSun, 13 Nov 2011 03:05:17 +0100 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?22,68243,68527#msg-68527 Re: Bricked wii 4.3Ehttp://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?22,68243,68527#msg-68527i know for a fact that if i could just get into the HBC i could unbrick my wii the problem is i cant get into it

You can also use a dance pad and just find 2 objects to put on the other 2 arrows instead of trying to take apart a gc controller
Yes, but it's already been stated that "SaveMii" won't work.]]> bg4545 FixMiiSun, 23 Oct 2011 21:33:19 +0200 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?22,68243,68294#msg-68294 Re: Bricked wii 4.3Ehttp://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?22,68243,68294#msg-68294 Mroy5050 FixMiiSun, 23 Oct 2011 13:49:18 +0200 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?22,68243,68246#msg-68246 Re: Bricked wii 4.3Ehttp://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?22,68243,68246#msg-68246
If not, you will never be able to fix this Wii. You have fully bricked the Wii, priiloader is wiped out, GC d-pad method ("SaveMiiFrii" - recovery mode) will not work, nothing will work.

As for your question on how to make sure it doesn't happen again, that's simple: Don't use pathetic pieces of software that are poorly pulled together from a bunch of other out dated tools and is generally rubbish. And don't do things you don't understand. If you had understood what you were doing, you would have installed a working IOS60 before installing the System Menu, and you wouldn't be in this problem. Even better, you wouldn't have downgraded because it is 100% useless.]]> SifJar FixMiiThu, 20 Oct 2011 17:52:51 +0200 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?22,68243,68243#msg-68243 Re: Bricked wii 4.3Ehttp://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?22,68243,68243#msg-68243NOTE: when i press the on/off button on my wii i dont get a black screen, webpage-looking text of whatever. the light just goes on, and thats it
