umm... u can try puttin the homebrew browser.. but i was just at a wiibrew page and i saw this If you get an error such as Failed to read boot.elf (-1), your SD card may not be formatted as FAT16/32. Try reformatting your SD card with the Official SD Card Format Tool so you can try that... EDIT: Yeah your right Dr. Lucky sorry about that... try the recommendation above..by Legend28469 - Getting Started
You need an apps folder... it goes on the root of your sd cardby Legend28469 - Getting Started
Lol.. ok.. I'm in... I'm gettin Mario Kart.. Tomorrow.. and i'm at Co-Op right now (Kinda at work.. but i don't work there anyway).. so when i get home.. u guys can have my wii friend code.. and i'll pwn all ya when i can... (played numerous times be4... not a noob)... happy drifting.. p.s. i don't get home til about 6:30 - 7 Eastern... and thats where my wii is..by Legend28469 - Offtopic
Try reading this wiibrew.org There is an explanation on how to use bootme..by Legend28469 - FixMii
Bad idea to talk about backup games or how to run them... its against forum rules... mods will probably edit it out for ya... or you can do it yourself... anyways i would recommend installing straight to the SD to wii.. but thats just me... it doesn't really matter.. and if i am correct.. newest versions of things come out on the web before the homebrew browser.... there is a list on wiibreby Legend28469 - Getting Started
lmao.. the 3.4 is a relief... and umm.. good luck with the Twilight hack.. just remember don't get too excited and mess up.. (even if you do.. it can probably be fixed without too much problem).. let us know how it goesby Legend28469 - Getting Started
No problem at all... by the way if your on 3.4 then use the .dol file... DON'T use the elf file um... to check your firmware from your system menu (where all your channels show up) at the bottom left corner of a screen you should see an icon there (don't remember what its called.. i'm away from my wii) click it or press A on it then you'll have 2 choices... eitherby Legend28469 - Getting Started
I know nothing about this 4.3 firmware.. but yes you can run homebrew on a 3.4 but to some limits.. for example on a 3.4 firmware.. DVDX isn't working quite yet... and i don't knotw if it will anytime soon..by Legend28469 - Getting Started
4.3 ... I hope your talking about 3.4 If so... then yes you can install homebrew on 3.4 goto wiibrew.org and follow the instructions on that page.. and be sure where it sais to download the twilight hack.. (link given on that page) be sure to download the one that sais 3.4... but that is only if you have 3.4 i've never heard of a 4.3 fwby Legend28469 - Getting Started
How different is it coding for the Wii... if your coding experience (C++) is in Windows.... does it get harder..? I know the libraries are different.. but other than that..by Legend28469 - Coding
Just be sure to get the right file.... beta2 if your wii is firmware 3.4by Legend28469 - Getting Started
well.. i figured if it doesn't delete.. then i can't be subject to 3.4... because that is also part of the contract agreement.. but i don't get home til about 6 something eastern (CA)... so.. if someone else wants to try and make a report on that... feel freeby Legend28469 - Homebrew General
I catch your point(s)... thanks to you two for clearing that up.. I'm still gonna try redo-ing my twilight hack.. and i'll let you guys know if it deletes the save file.. EDIT: and i guess that will determine which contract i'm subject toby Legend28469 - Homebrew General
Ok.. Thank you... and about wiiconnect24.. after GeckoOs ( with hooks ), would I be safe to leave that on... or should i turn it offby Legend28469 - Homebrew General
QuoteArikadoHeres the deal: You can post/say whatever you want about downgrading; as long as you dont talk about using/obtaining piratic tools or IOSs. Do you mean ISOs? EDIT: And what falls under the piratic tools section? I'm guessing just things like games? If it is, then there isn't any piratic tools involved in the process and I'm also asking for permission to placeby Legend28469 - Getting Started
Would you be updating by Nintendo? Because I've heard that hacking your wii and using Nintendo to update could brick your wii.by Legend28469 - Homebrew General
That sux... So I've been reading about starfall & gamma... Any recommendations.. so I can skip and avoid these updates.. (I'll go for whatever is safer) EDIT: Just got an idea... so in the 3.4 contract it does say about deleting files.. Such as the twilight hack.. so what IF i tried to put on the twilight hack and then i played and then i restarted my wii.. and its still there.. wby Legend28469 - Homebrew General
Soo.. I'm guessing they can only update my wii if i agreed to the contract right... lol.. so what if i did.. and then i downgraded back to 3.2u... would that still apply or am i free from that contract like it never happened...by Legend28469 - Homebrew General
I'd be honoured to make another thread (or topic) somewhere on a tutorial on how to downgrade.. from 3.3 or 3.4 to whatever.. i think as far back as 2. something.. I'd give credit where needed too.. so if its allowed.. just lemme know.. and i'll have it done.. also.. i'd have to know where to put it.. as i am kinda new to the forumby Legend28469 - Getting Started
OK.. I DID IT.. TOTAL SUCCESS.. DOWNGRADED FROM 3.4U TO A 3.2U And Am Currently enjoying my dvd...lmao... THANKS ALOT.. EDIT: By the way, just wanted to get this out. I woke up this morning, and my wii was on standby (so far normal), then I turned on my tv, and it was as if my wii was on, on the tv was all black (the way it is before the health screen shows up).

To Transfer Files between the SD card and the Wii. Goto Wii Options (Bottom Left Corner) Data Management (Left Side) Save Data (Left Side) Wii (Left Side) Then From there you can choose to copy files over. EDIT: Oh sorry, Can't helpby Legend28469 - Getting Started
OK.. lmao.. its showtime.. I'm gonna do this.. and I'll let you guys know how it turns out... Wish me Luck!!by Legend28469 - Getting Started
So... between those two answers, I take it as I am (with a bit of risk) able to downgrade to 3.2 or would it be as Arikado said.. I'm stuck on 3.4... because if i'd known about homebrew for the wii.. I would've never updated... i think i might be mixed up in answers.. because there are a few vids (on youtube) showin the downgrading process ( a bit lengthy ).. but i'm a bit desby Legend28469 - Getting Started
Thank You... And sorry about going off topic.. Last question... Will I have to redo my twilight hack (to an alpha version or something)... since to my (very limited) knowledge "twilight-hack-v0.1-beta2" only works with 3.4... And I won't have Twilight for too long.. so I can't mess this up.. because I am renting it.. and it wasn't too easy for me to find... I have read about a dby Legend28469 - Getting Started
Nope... I could just use software to take it down. lol.. But that could get me fired... actually its a co-op job... lmao.. and I'm not super desperate to get onto youtube.. so i can usually wait til i get home... but as of right now... without any types of software... i can't... the filter they have is smartfilter....by Legend28469 - Getting Started
Ofcourse I do, lol.. Its just this is different. Its server blocked.. Not software blocked..by Legend28469 - Getting Started
Quotegreevedoggcan you pls explain how to downgrade from 3.4 to 3.2 so i can get HBC to load...i can't seem to get beta 9 to do the trick There are a few downgrading videos on youtube... I would go for the longest one with 3 parts, it looks to work quite well, and has a few reports of success. I would give you a link but, I'm at work and youtube is blocked.by Legend28469 - Getting Started
Lmao, Ok, that clears things up... lol. I'm just curious has to how they figure this out, or find exploits in games. I know for sure if I played TP I wouldn't know there is an exploit. It just makes my head hurt (sorry if I am not explaining this properly). Basically I just wanted to know the steps they took.by Legend28469 - Getting Started
