What does "iosAlloc titles failed" means?

Hello I'm a french wii user and I have a probleme since yesterday.
When I use homebrews, every homebrews, I see the "menu" or the "welcome text" but no text.... or "choices text"
For example: when I launch Anyregion changer 1.1 I only see that after pressing 1 to continue


AnyRegion Changer 1.1

And when I try to update Homebrew channel (or DVDX) I can read this : "iosAlloc titles failed" and it reboot.

Do you have any clues?

Thanks for reading

It means something is messed up.

Get on irc.efnet.net and send me a message. (Same goes for anyone else with this issue until we figure out exactly what is causing the issue)

No, don't do that. Instead, take a picture of the screen when that message comes up and post it.

So let's go!

In this picture of AnyRegion Changer, there is no text to choose, but you can exit, still working


Same problem in AnyTitle Deleter


In Custom IOS downgrader, available firmwares are there... invisible.... when I press down...


I get that.... but still working, I try to downgrade to V2.0E blind, works


In DVDX when I press 4 times down, I get that....


.... and that when I choose "normal Install" > the "iosAlloc titles failed" message


same "iosAlloc titles failed" message when I try to install new version of Homebrew channel


Not easy to choose your movie in mplayer when the list is invisible. But still working!

Mod edit: removed inappropriate images
Message invisible and where is my selection? Invisible too!

Here is what I get when I press down.... but still working! Message during installation are invisible too.


For information I have a PAL wii V3.2E, works fine.
I manage to launch trucha signed discs.
I think that my wii tried to connect to Actvision server from Guitar Hero 4 US, failed! Next day I found the problem by launching wad manager.

WHAT IS MY PROBLEM?

I had the same problem after running muzer patch for ios51 and the shop except i didnt even see the wads listed.
Then tona helped me and sended me a program that deleted ios 37 till 32 if i recall this fixed it saw all selections updated homebrewchannel without problems. so after toying around with the new homebrewchannel and all i thought to make life easier and run starfall and patch it region free, the problem came back now but i can see the wads now just like teeace same problems now.

Do NOT "fix it" by "doing stuff". We don't know what the hell is wrong but we certainly want to find out.

Run this and post a screenshot:

Sure! I'm happy to be a part of "history"

That's it!

Is it good or is there any invisible text?

There are supposed to be tests 1-3. The problem is that it's eating *all* of the formatted prints.

In other words: this is no IOS weirdness, this is much greater overall system weirdness. Something is really wrong.

Well.... well.... I'm ready to test another marcan file ;-)
I'm happy to know that with HellsAngel we are 2 for the moment, I'm not alone!

and when DVDX installer says "Could not get preferred IOS version!" it doesn't give any clue?

I cannot post screenshots sorry but i have the exact same outcome as teeace.

the "still alive" messages are a good thing, no?

from what i understand what tona posted not entirely we get 5 when only 3 were expected

teeace do you happen to have a wiikey installed?

no wiikey for me, just a wiinja Deluxe but that's not the problem.

As it turns out, this happens when you've got so many titles (VC or disc, doesn't matter) that it overflows an array. That means over 400 at least.

The only plausible explanation for that is that you're both compulsive pirates. I'm not going to waste time on this crap.
