HBC install error on Wii U (Wii mode) Was excited to hear Homebrew Channel can be installed on the Wii U via Wii mode. I am using smash stack and followed all instructions but have not been able to install HBC. The first time I loaded it up and tried to install it failed out and now every time I try again I get this error: There is no usable or vulnerable IOS installed on this Wii. Please note that we will not use fakesigned IOSes due to security reasons. It looks like the issue is with IOS58 (see log below). The Wii U is stock with whatever the latest updates are from Nintendo, but otherwise is completely unmodified (no mods or hacks of any kind). I tried the instructions here to try and 'fix' IOS58 but then I get another error: Quotesd card detected opening boot.elf: boot.elf not found (-1) usb gecko not found "no code found to load, hanging. I guess smash stack only loads .elf files and Dop-Mii is .dol. I tried to use LoadMii to load the Dop-Mii boot.dol but that's not working either. Any suggestions? Doesn't seem like I can file a bug either as that site looks down.

To fix it is simple :D

Just format you SD Card to another format like FAT > FAT 32 or FAT 32 > FAT and rename it and Just try again. Works like a Charm :D]]> togepi Wii U - Wii ModeSat, 18 May 2013 00:31:29 +0200 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?31,72058,72358#msg-72358 Re: HBC install error on Wii U (Wii mode)http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?31,72058,72358#msg-72358 bg4545 Wii U - Wii ModeWed, 16 Jan 2013 11:08:08 +0100 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?31,72058,72357#msg-72357 Re: HBC install error on Wii U (Wii mode)http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?31,72058,72357#msg-72357

For anyone wondering the old SD card was a SanDisk Ultra II that worked fine in my old Wii, and the new one is a plain old SanDisk Class 2 for $5 from Amazon.]]> hrvat36 Wii U - Wii ModeFri, 04 Jan 2013 08:07:33 +0100 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?31,72058,72157#msg-72157 Re: HBC install error on Wii U (Wii mode)http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?31,72058,72157#msg-72157Now HBC is working fine.

Anyway, thanks for your tips and I hope hrvat36's problems will be solved.

If that can help you my old sd card was broken so I just changed it and now it's just working like a charm.

Bye :) !]]> windaube Wii U - Wii ModeThu, 27 Dec 2012 23:38:42 +0100 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?31,72058,72155#msg-72155 Re: HBC install error on Wii U (Wii mode)http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?31,72058,72155#msg-72155 SifJar Wii U - Wii ModeThu, 27 Dec 2012 19:19:20 +0100 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?31,72058,72151#msg-72151 Re: HBC install error on Wii U (Wii mode)http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?31,72058,72151#msg-72151
Do you have any idea of what we can do ?]]> windaube Wii U - Wii ModeThu, 27 Dec 2012 18:16:09 +0100 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?31,72058,72150#msg-72150 Re: HBC install error on Wii U (Wii mode)http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?31,72058,72150#msg-72150
Anyway, dop-Mii requires HW_AHBPROT to be disabled for it to be able to do anything other than upgrade IOS to newer official revisions, and HW_AHBPROT is only disabled if you load it via HBC, not if you load it via LoadMii or Wii Homebrew Launcher or anything like that.]]> SifJar Wii U - Wii ModeThu, 27 Dec 2012 18:03:20 +0100 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?31,72058,72149#msg-72149 Re: HBC install error on Wii U (Wii mode)http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?31,72058,72149#msg-72149
But my big problem is that I don't want to use DopMii because the version of IOS58 installed on my Wii U is something like v6400 and and DopMii want to install v6176. I think it's a very bad idea and I will never try to install this IOS version...
My Hackmii log is the same as hrvat36.

Please help us :( !

PS: For those who want to launch DopMii, load the Wii Homebrew Launcher with smash stack instead of LoadMii or Hackmii ;) and put DopMii in apps folder, just like HBC. I don't know if it works with Wii Motion Plus.]]> windaube Wii U - Wii ModeThu, 27 Dec 2012 17:36:25 +0100 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?31,72058,72148#msg-72148 Re: HBC install error on Wii U (Wii mode)http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?31,72058,72148#msg-72148 hrvat36 Wii U - Wii ModeThu, 27 Dec 2012 07:33:41 +0100 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?31,72058,72116#msg-72116 Re: HBC install error on Wii U (Wii mode)http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?31,72058,72116#msg-72116that's is why it dont finde boot.dol it's have bean removed.]]> filfat Wii U - Wii ModeSun, 23 Dec 2012 17:28:36 +0100 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?31,72058,72115#msg-72115 Re: HBC install error on Wii U (Wii mode)http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?31,72058,72115#msg-72115wiiubrew.org]]]> pcmantinker Wii U - Wii ModeSat, 22 Dec 2012 22:12:03 +0100 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?31,72058,72058#msg-72058 HBC install error on Wii U (Wii mode)http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?31,72058,72058#msg-72058

I guess smash stack only loads .elf files and Dop-Mii is .dol. I tried to use LoadMii to load the Dop-Mii boot.dol but that's not working either.
