There is no known vulnerable IOS installed on this Wii.

Look for an updated version at:

If this is already the latest version... well, suck it.

When you use Dop-IOS MOD to install IOS 30 v1040, you need to make sure to choose NOT to patch IOS 30.

ok figured out what the problem I was having with 11 and 12 someone put a disk in the drive.
now when i load 12, loading on ios 35 to change 30 back to ver 1040 i get this message
it download's fine I get download complete. Installing to title 00000001-0000001e v1040...1...l:
ES_AddContentStart(000000010000001e, 0) failed: -1017
install returned -1 installation complete!
ERROR: Something failed. (ret: -1)
continue?
are you sure you want to continue?


the stept I am using in order
Wipe out sd card
create private dir with exploit
copy trial12,dol to root of sd
rename to boot,dol
load exploit from sdmenu
it launches dop=-iso mod
press a to continue
load to ios 35
ios sucsesfully loaded
choose IOS's menu
select ios 30
hit minus sign to linstall ver 1040 of ios 30
are you sure you want to install ios 30 v1040
are you sure you want to continue
press a to continue
download start's
I get download complete. Installing to title 00000001-0000001e v1040...1...l:
ES_AddContentStart(000000010000001e, 0) failed: -1017

It's trying to apply a patch to your selected IOS. You should be instructing it not to do that - that way you wont get failures.

I had the exact same problem. Can't install HBC, hash BAD, etc.

(It probably wasn't the smartist thing to do, but...) I used AnyRegion Changer to downgrade to 3.2, and it's working fine now. I wouldn't really recommend it, as there's probably better ways, but it might be a good last resort.

EDIT: Oh, wait, you already figured it out

I also joined the 'clever' Nintendo upgrade club, but I added my touch by formatting the wii after that in a futile attempt of getting it back to factory state. By reading this thread I managed to solve it. So thanks everybody, specially to Arikado for his hard work. Below are the results I got using Arikado's Dop-ios MOD trial 13 ( the normal version bugged showing the blurry screen). I solved it by reinstalling an old version of IOS36 from IOS250

Regards!!

upps, it trimmed the white spaces. I think it is still readable. However 'pantalla borrosa' means blurry screen in spanish :P

Hi coriscow,

First of all, thanks a ton for the detailed feedback on Dop-IOS MOD. This will help me help people solve their problems. Again, thanks :-)

Secondly, in the future, be aware that there's an edit button that you can use to edit your posts if you want.

Regards,
Arikado

Hey, Arikado! I admire your work and the effort the team behind DOP-IOS Mod has done. Just wanted to mention that. I also can't recover my homebrew or anything now. I was foolish to try a "fresh start" with update 4.2U. I did it 'cause I began to experience freezing problems and got tired of reading that I had a "system" with corrupted files. That was annoying, but at least everything still worked.

I thank you and anyone here in advance for any input that can be of help. As I said, everything has been wiped out, I don't even have my SD card which contained all my files necessary to run homebrew apps-no homebrew channel. Can't install homebrew channel. Believe me, that I've been reading the forums for the last three to four days to find an answer to my problem to no avail. I had cioscorp installed prior to the update. This is the log I receive from HackMii:

The one thing I AM able to do is run DOP-IOS Mod through bannerbomb, once I am in there though, I am as lost as a sheep. I appreciate your time and welcome any input. Is homebrew still salvageable???

@Corisco

This seems like what I may need to do but I am not sure. I have the trial 13 dol. How do use it? Put it in the root of the SD by renaming it to boot dol??


Arikado, you DA MAN!

@Forbidden_Gundam:

Load AnyTitle Deleter through bannerbomb, and delete IOS30.

Then, load Dop-IOS MOD and reinstall the latest version of IOS30.

After that, try launching the Hackmii Installer. Does it work?

Thanks, WaxyPumpkin72!

I'll let you know as soon as asap. Thanks for the quick reply!!

Alright, tried it. This is the message my tv displayed:

"Informing Wii That I am God...Error! ES_Identify (ret = 1017)"

Woops! Got some more stuff, after I hit the A button:


Initializing Filesystem driver...ok!
Wiping off fingerprints...
-Deleting ticket file / ticket/00000001/00000000.tik...
Ticket delete failed (No ticket?) -102
-Deleting title file /title/00000001/00000000...
Error! ISFS_Delete(ret = 102)

Checking system region...

Pulling Systemenu TMD...Error! SFS_Open (ret = -102)
Reading TMD failed!
Error! ES_OpenContent (ret = -1017)


What does this mean? LOL!!! AnyTitle Deleter has booted!! WaxyPumpkin72! Many thanks! This is far more than I could have accomplished alone! and thanks to the wiibrew community! I haven't gotten to the HBC yet, but this brings me joy! I'll give it a go!

Were able to delete IOS30?

Hmm...I tried it, but it says that it failed to delete the ticket "(No ticket?) = 102

"Error! ISFS_Delete(ret =102)
Press any key...

Takes me back to AnyTitle Deleter's Menu : (

I tried HackMii afterwards just to find out if by some miracle it would work and it didn't.

I apologize for the overposting here, but, I did manage to make much progress in my opinion. I have now been able to install MPlayer CE as a wad by using wadmanager which booted through bannerbomb.

Still unable to install homebrew channel, but , I am very happy for now. Thanks for your patience...I'm going to bed.

Update: I spent about 4 to 5 hours (reading the threads, researching files, reformatting sd card, etc) and finally got HBC loaded through HackMii. AnyTitle Deleter didn't seem to do anything to help when I tried removing IOS30, but it didn't seem to affect the system menu in any negative way either.

After giving it some thought, I'd figure I try loading other apps through BannerBomb to watch what would happen (at this point, I was ready to just experiment with my Wii anyway). I found an app that worked and used IOS 250 to load try and install MPlayer CE. It worked. I also tried loading others via IOS 38 and everything was smooth sailing after that.

All apps that I have available via HBC are fully functional and there are appears to be no negative side effects. The only other thing, is that I'm only able to install BootMii as an IOS.

Good Luck everyone else and thanks again to all contributors.

The purpose of deleting IOS30 was so you could reinstall IOS30 after you'd deleted it through Dop-IOS MOD. Then, you would have a vulnerable IOS with which to run the Hackmii Installer.
