I updated from the official servers and I can't downgrade. So... is there a way to do it using WADs? Does anyone know which? (no download link please).

if you installed preloader after the update you're not bricked... and... softmii is for 3.2, didn't you read their instructions?... just hold reset while turning on your wii... you should be able to start preloader and open HBC from there...

if you dont have cIOS already installed then you cant use WAD Manager

now what do I do?
if you can load the homebrew channel just run cIOS Downgrader and start over

With this guy, you still can't boot games from the Disc Channel and install VC titles via SD? I don't think IOS60 is patched for both uses yet, right?

I'm having trouble installing wads now...
I'm using the WAD manager IOS16 (that's what it's called...) and it is unable to download Space invaders gets even or paper mario 64. How do I fix this?
Also, Starfall seems to be deactivated because I'm seeing the health screen again, is this normal?

Starfall does not work with 4.0 use preloader and hacks at http://wiibrew.org/wiki/Preloader/hacks

You mean installing cIOSCORP will corrupt System Menu and installation of preloader will restore it

Howcome?

Is this because you can now choose from which IOS you want to boot or something?

Anyway, great guide! I'll try it tomorrow!

I swear to god, megaupload has some of the worst captchas ever. It took me 10 tries to get those ISO60 tools or what ever.

So I installed preloader 0.29 on my Wii... I have no idea what it is or what it does, all I know is that whenever i boot up my wii, it goes to a menu that says systemmenu/homebrew channel/etc. I don't know what any of those options do and do not plan on altering them before I find out what they are. I heard that it helps my wii in case it bricks so I'll be keeping it but is there a way to make it so that whenever I turn on the wii, it doesn't go to this screen? Maybe whenever I hold Power and Reset or something but I don't want it every time I turn it on.

On another note, I got my WAD manager working again thanks to this but Space Invaders get even didn't seem to be installed... Wierd...

Think you can elaborate more on that? Or the Preloader in general?

Sorry for asking, but GBATemp is going so slow, and the search function isn't working for me right now...

Is there a way to get a custom Health screen for 4.0 yet? If this has been answered, sorry, but I can't find it right now...
