Autoboot Disc Bootmii Mediafire
I recently bricked my 4.0 wii due to a theme install and did not have preloader/bootmii/starfall installed.After talking to VettaCossx from the playground, andWiipower from the gbatemp.net fourms i gathered information about hardmodding the wii that way i could autoboot a disc from the rescue screen.After some research i realized that hardmodding the wii with a Drivechip to autoboot a disc was possible, but the modchip didnt come setup to autoboot, you had to power on the wii and navigate through the system menu to the modchips gui to set it to autoboot. After 3 more hours of searching the web i found this site out of canada which sells Modchips preset to Autobootmodchip-depot.com's Bricked Wii AUTOBOOT Modchips - Really impressed with this site, ordered an Autobooting Drivekey chip off here, was able to speak with someone @ 11pm via the online support, and this person wasnt some sells person from overseas, but actually worked for the site, and had an impressive knowledge about the softmodding/hardmodding scene. I purchased a DriveKey mod chip that night and got a CanadaPost Tracking number that night. Arrived within 5 days to my house.They have 2 of the top solderless modchips that they have preset to autoboot atm.I comboed this chip with the Universal Unbricking Disc Version 2 (UUDV2) autoboot disc available at:and the savemiifrii boot to rescue menu methodWith the chip installed the UUDV2 booted right up to wad manager.
I then used Nus DownloaderTo aquire a 3.2u system menu wad, put the 3.2u wad on my sd card and installed it via the wad manager wallah UNBRICKED!!!!! I then used waninkoko's firmware 4.0 updater packto bring it back up to 4.0 with the trucha bug still intact.These methods brought my gimp banner bricked wii back to life without preloader/starfall/bootmii.This may or may not work for you. I have read you must have the trucha bug on your system iso for this to work.I dont take credit or responsibility for any of this information, i just wanted to compile it here to save others the time it took to hunt it all down.Total cost = $12.00 for a Gamecube controller, $81.90 for a Auto booting DriveKey mod chip.
Total cost comes to $93.90The moral of this story: save yourself $93.90 and some down time, install Preloader.

It's absolutely amazing, intense, precise, fast and immersive. So much untapped potential here.

Whats the usb coverflow loader of choice for most people then?I've been using WiiFlow Beta 2 -I love the animation and total flexibility / customisation of the display. I might work on a theme for it.I can't get my rips of Wii Sports Resort or Grand Slam Tennis to load (they run from other loaders) - I think Hibern, the developer, needs to fix it a bit or something. I'm on rev14, so I dunno.I've got the Wii booting straight into WiiFlow as well, with the home icon returning me to the system menu if I need it. Totally awesome! No need to yell.My DSi still runs my AceKard 2i just fine, because I chose not to update my firmware.Always check if shit gets broken before you update the firmware.1.4 adds what? Facebook and maybe some speedups to the browser? I don't need that shit.You get prompted when?
When you do a manual update check or when you enter the DSiWare shop?Most people with a DSi are still good to go.Firmware updates will only break me when:-Physical DSi games come out (with forced firmware updates)-Something I NEED to buy hits the DSi shop-A MUST HAVE feature is included in the firmwareI simply don't see any of those happening for a long time, unfortunately. Someone bricks their wii lol.K, so here's the deal, so I'm pretty sure I've managed to do what is known as 'bricking' my wii. I was trying to install a theme for my wii menu, but it failed, then the wii menu wouldn't load. It kept saying something was corrupted, yadda yadda yadda. So I managed to do pretty much the stupidest thing ever and set preloader to auto boot, so when I turn on my wii, it just shows the sentence saying that my data is corrupted, and nothing else loads.
Not the health/safety screen, wii menu or even pre loader. Is there anyway to set preloader to boot again, or any other method to unbrick it? Or am I pretty much boned? Any help is greatly appreciated.Also feel free to laugh at me for being such a stupid noob, etc.
Sorry I had to ask that, but there are very few uses for WBFS managers that don't involve piracy, unlike USB Loader. The question gets asked every page or so of this thread and nobody gives an explanation of why they need to do this at first, so it does seem very suspicious. If you look back, you'll find that I do give the answer out on a valid response to the question (there's actually a page of the tutorial which explains one of them, although it's a little tricky to find).No hard feelings, I hope.

This thread has been a great source for homebrew info before my account was activated.Anyway, I recently did a long overdue IOS/USB Loader update.
And while I love the latest version of USB Loader. I can't seem to get my MP3 to play. I made sure my config.txt had 'music = 1' and my track is called music.mp3 both being in SD:/USB-loader. It's strange becuase it would work fine in older versions.Oh and I too, have problems with Brawl with the latest IOS rev 14. I load it with Hermes 223 mloader and it seems to work fine (aside from a strange, maybe rare and unrelated, incident where my SD card stopped working and custom Textures wouldn't load. This is almost certainly not going to work.
You have a new Wii and they will almost certainly brick if you try to use Any Region Changer on them. Also, you can only install BootMii as an IOS, which won't protect you from the type of brick Any Region Changer will give you. However, you can safely install homebrew so that you can run all of your original discs (Gecko OS).What you need to research is info on LU64 Wiis. If you find something that apparently allows Any Region Changer to be run on LU64 Wiis, then it might just work on yours.
I really don't recommend it, though. You also might want to check the posts of Pubba in this thread. He tried to do the same thing. Query: Is it possible to get a channel on the main menu for the backup loader? Or is that a no-no around here?I'd also like to add that I want to see a theme that displays all games as if they were lined up on a shelf, like DVD cases, with the spines facing towards you.
Autoboot Disc Bootmii Mediafire Version
Then have the ability to click a spine and the game come out of the shelf, allowing you to view the cover.As much as I like the image management, the constant use of front on views makes it always seem a little bit more cluttered than it should be. Spine viewing would be a great way to organise.
