    Hacking Firmware Downgrader 1.11 mod v1.23

    Oh, that's good to hear. What part of my understanding is incorrect. How else can I access BootMii (installed as IOS) if my Wii is bricked without Preloader?

    Hacking Firmware Downgrader 1.11 mod v1.23

    Yes, I have BootMii installed as an IOS, which means I that if I brick my Wii, I need Preloader to access BootMii via HBC, correct? However, installing a new System Menu will overwrite Preloader, hence my concern. :-/ Hehe, I'll try to remember not to be an idiot by unplugging my Wii during...

    Hacking Japanese->USA Wii Region Changing - Questions on final steps

    Thanks senkun. I'm glad you appreciate my approach and I look forward to creating an effective guide. I watched a YouTube video of someone using Firmware Downgrader; it appears that the app will reboot your Wii upon completion. This concerns me because the System Menu installation will...

    Hacking Firmware Downgrader 1.11 mod v1.23

    Excellent. I was prepping to change my region today, but since any problem with the Firmware Downgrader step will likely cause a brick, I won't mind waiting to hear your results. :-)

    Thanks for the helpful link! Has anyone tried this mod yet? The latest version just came out a couple days ago and I'm not sure how well Attila has been able to test it.

    Hacking Firmware Downgrader 1.11 mod v1.23

    Has anyone used this tool? It's supposed to be an improved version of Waninkoko's Firmware Downgrader. The improvement in which I'm interested is the prevention of error -102 when changing the region setting. I'm curious if anyone can comment on the quality and trustworthiness of the mod...

    Hacking Japanese->USA Wii Region Changing - Questions on final steps

    Thanks G0dLiKe! I have a much better understanding of your guide now. Gotcha. I will add Wii Region Changer to my steps immediately following AnyRegion Changer. I suppose it can't hurt to have a second app double check the settings! Err.. I hope it can't hurt.

    Hacking Japanese->USA Wii Region Changing - Questions on final steps

    Thanks for the link! It's good to see the steps of others' black Wii region conversions. I noticed that you also mentioned the -102 error in Firmware Downgrader. Did you encounter this error? My sole goal at the moment is to change my region settings, and I think some steps in your guide are...

    Hacking Japanese->USA Wii Region Changing - Questions on final steps

    Correct me if I'm wrong, but wouldn't I have to enter the System Menu to perform an official update? And since a region mismatch between the SM and the console setting causes a semi-brick, wouldn't I be unable to enter the System Menu to perform the update?

    I'm attempting to change my black Japanese Wii's region settings to USA. I've done many hours of research over the past few weeks to formulate a plan, but I have some uncertainties on the final steps, so I'd appreciate some expert input before I attempt them. Steps Taken: 1) I started with a...

    Hacking How to change the system menu region for your Wii!

    In my efforts to understand everything before I attempt potentially dangerous procedures, I am hoping someone can clarify what Wii Region Changer does that Firmware Downgrader or AnyRegion Changer does not. As I understand it, the console region can be changed in Step 8 using Firmware...

    I'm still not sure how it works, but yea MS offers newest updates only, you can't find old
