For some reason 222,223, and 249 were updated recently though. I can see 249 (although I still use rev17 for older apps that won't use new ones), but it is widely known that hermes v4 has better compatibility than v5/5.1. That's why 222 and 223 are usually kept at v4 as a fallback from 224.zizer said:cIOS rev 17 is good for triiforce
Genyus said:I'm sorry guys but I'm a little confused. I'm running my Wii on 4.1E right now and supposedly if I want to mod it I should update it to 4.3E first and then use one of the game exploits? That's the only way to softmod if you are in version 4.1E?
Thanks in advance!
Genyus said:I see, thanks. I also found out after a bit of research myself now.
Sadly, I was wrong about 4.1E, I'm actually on 4.3E. Now I have to buy myself SSBB again, ah well.
edit: Does anyone know if there's a softmod in the make for 4.3E that doesn't require a game exploit?
What? Not only is this the wrong guide, but when you have the choice to pick the menu you want, why would you choose 4.2 over 4.1?luminalace said:OK today I used Modmii to update my neighbours Wii from 3.4E to 4.2E.

I was about to hand it back but I noticed that I get a Black Screen when I access his Wii Shop Channel or Opera browser.
Any ideas guys what I have missed?
...that's cuz there is no up42x.zip... the 'x' in this case is a placeholder for whatever region your wii is. if your NTSC (North America), then use up42u....if you're PAL (European), use up42e....use up42j for Japanese console....batrachian said:I am able to get the link and files by sending email to the address below. However, I cannot find the up42x.zip file described in the tutorial to upgrade my current 3.3U. I do see up42e up42j up42u & up42u42already.zip. Which file should I use for my upgrade? Thanks.
some people don't have to use up42u.zip so they could possibly miss the installation of IOS58.fattest said:I am preparing an sd card to mod someone's wii, and noticed that the up42u.zip contains ios58v6176 but 42mod.zip (which is installed after up42u) contains ios58v6175. i downloaded these files a few months ago and try to update them myself when necessary, but i don't think i ever touched ios58 in either of the archives so this may be an oversight.
I also want to prepare a folder for wads related to channel forwarders that is installed after the softmod. I wanted to put the just dance 2 store hack as well but the wad installation is designed to be unsuccessful, so should i make sure it's named something like zzzz.wad so that it's installed last and doesn't prevent other wads from being installed?

You're right, it doesn't really matter which version you have installed. All the IOSs from the June 2010 4.3 update (ie. IOS58v6175) are the exact same as the IOSs from the September 2010 4.3B update (ie. IOS58v6176) except for one change; and that change was to disable the old method of restoring the trucha bug (ie. trucha bug restorer method, or any method without requiring ahbprot). In fact, it was one of these updates (4.3B I think) that began installing IOS4X IOSs onto all region Wii's (prior they were only installed to Korean Wii's), and this prevented users from installing an older version of IOS4X on non-Korean Wii's which could then be used to run the trucha bug restorer. But now that we have apps like IOS236 Installer, who cares if trucha bug restorer doesn't work anymoreburritoboy9984 said:I actually put a slightly older version in the mod42, good catch. I doubt N really made any changes, so it shouldn't really matter. But I will be updating the packs soon, and will fix it then
