Wii semi-bricked please help.
August 03, 2009 11:55PM
Hi
I accidently started installing a PAL wii update (from a game) while I have a NSTC wii (I have a chip installed). So I immediately shut down the wii in the middle of the upgrade.
Now i can’t access the wii settings ("semi-brick”). I searched online and I understood that when I will update my wii it will fix the problem. I tried putting a NTSC version of wii sport resort and updated my wii and I am still semi bricked.
I do have Homebrew channel if that helps. I tried using the downgrade to 3.2 in any-region-changer but It didn't do anything.
I also tried using NUD to download 4.1(WAD file) Version and to install it with the WAD manager. That also didn't work.
Can anyone help in this matter?
Thanks

Hmm... You don't happen to have BootMii installed do you? And did you make a NAND backup before you bricked your Wii? Also, when did you purchase your Wii and what are the first four digits of your Serial Number?

Unfortunately I don't have BootMii. Will it help if I install it now?. I didn't install it because I wasn't sure which option to choose: BootMii/boot2 or BootMii/IOS.
I purchased my Wii on August 2008 and a week later inserted a mod chip.
First four digits of my Serial Number: LU5826

Try running SignCheck and post the results, I think the update actually did complete and you no longer have a trucha IOS.
