Mighty Channels is a channel loader for Wii that uses Waninkoko's cIOS NAND
emulator. It loads your SD card or USB device like if it was your Wii's NAND,
so you can play your purchased Wii Shop Channel titles from your SD card or
your USB HDD!
It's completely based on [triiforce - triiForce a open source channel loader - Google Project Hosting Triiforce].

Features:
* Minimalist & fast GUI
* Downloads images [http://wiitdb WiiTDB]
* A button: play game
* 1 button: configure game
* 2 button: sort games by system
* B button: sort games at your own
* HOME button: Home menu
* Requires d2x cIOSs


Prepare virtual NAND
--------------------
Mighty Channels requires a virtual NAND to load channels. There are different
methods to get a copy of our real NAND and turn into into a virtual one for
Mighy Channels:
* Method 1: Extract it directly with Simple FS Dumper 0.42 (using Full mode)
* Method 2: Extract a NAND copy made by BootMii with ShowMiiWads
Both methods will give you a list of files and directories that we will have
to place in the SD or USB root in order to run it with Mighty Channels.
* If the channels we want to play were not on the real NAND when we made the
copy, we can install new channels in .wad format later using ShowMiiWads in
the virtual NAND.

Kai Schtrom released a new version of DosFlash - a PC tool to flash your drive via DOS.

What's new/fixed:
* Key extraction task "LiteOn Key V3 (Tarablinda)" now supports the Slim firmware versions 9504, 0272, 0225, 0401, 1071 and also tries to discover the key on unknown firmware versions.
* 2 new tasks added named "Lock SPI Flash" and "Unlock SPI Flash". The new unlock SPI flash task is used in combination with Geremia's MXIC and Winbond Unlock method. It is very much influenced by Geremia's unlockSPI program, which was the first bruter to unlock Winbond SPI flashes. To relock the flash after you have finished writing a patched firmware to it, use the lock SPI flash task. This will instantly make the SPI flash write protected for all blocks. BP0, BP1 and SRP status bits are activated afterward, so handle this function with care!
* Read Flash task now can create a full firmware dump of the Slim firmware versions 9504, 0272, 0225, 0401 and 1071. To create full firmware dumps of 0225 drives and above you should get a compatible SATA2 controller and set it to IDE mode. In addition you should be able to do Geremia's MXIC or Winbond unlock method. The compatible SATA2 controller is needed to unlock the MTK. Any installed drivers should be uninstalled, because they will switch the controller back to AHCI mode. In combination with the SPI flash status register unlock you are able to write to the firmware and inject Geremia's 8051 trojan, which can then dump the complete firmware. A risk level is added to show you how risky it is for your individual flash chip and firmware combination to write the patched firmware to obtain a full dump.
