Quit deleting the site its for research purposes
Please, don't stop deleting it. It's a clickbait into other users installing the same WAD and turning their Wii console into a paperweight.

This happens when users do things they don't understand and their common sense is in hibernation mode or went on vacation.

Maybe this user wants to others brick their wii's on purpose and that's why he keep this thread bump from time to time without any advance.

Sadly you're not the only one having this issue, but "promoting" that site can lead other people to do the same to their Wii's, and that's something we should not allow it to happen.

If you had Priiloader things would be easier, or at least you'd had more options.
What is priiloader
[...]
This answers my question... You're out of luck, unless...

...Now you need to reprogram the NAND, but I'd advice against trying it yourself, considering how is your Wii now.

Just in case, never follow YT tutorials, "youtubers" don't care if your console bricks in the process, all they care about are views and that type of content gets outdated pretty fast.

Advice don't try factory resetting your Wii unless you know what you're doing and what the overcome will be.

Edit:
It might be possible to install Priiloader using BlueBomb, you should research about it.

"What is Priiloader..."

Priiloader is an essential tool authored by DacoTaco that adds a level of brick protection to your Wii. It loads before the Wii System Menu does. The tool can also apply hacks that are used to enhance, unlock, and/or fix many System Menu features.


Additionally, it can be used to quickly launch any Title or Homebrew, or change the way Wii autoboots.

I won't keep try helping someone that doesn't want to be helped, I'll go flying...

What is PriiLoader? :huh:
Why WiiMote won't connect to BootMii? :(

Have you tried turning it off and on again?

Press RESET to RESET the console to previous state?

Press EJECT to eject WiiDev Menu 1.0!

Have you tried cleaning your Wii with dishwashing soap? It might have static and it's why it doesn't boot.

How about sprinkling salt through the Disc Slot to get rid of static also?

I think I made a big mistake a month ago with my wii
It had been moded for months then I got into installing wads I went to <site> and they had a wad that was wii menu 1.0 dev and I installed it and now when I turn on my wii it has a black screen and my wiimote pairs but nothing shows up.

Ps my wii is a original white wii with the latest version of the wii menu
Wii Menu (USA) (v1.0) (Dev).wad this was the killer of my wii
Simple. Don't install dev WADs unless you know what you are doing. If you're gunna try out devkit software, use a SNEEK NAND on either an SD card or USB flash drive. If you didn't backup your NAND, then you're out of luck.

the NAND backup are encrypted with the console keys so unless you have your original keys a donor backup is useless.

There is a tutorial here about using a donor NAND to create a new nand backup for your console, extracting the files and repackaging them with your own keys.

Habe you tried using another Bluetooth controller instead of WiiMote?
Since WiiMote won't connect to BootMii, maybe Logitech Bluetooth controller will connect to BootMii.
