Frustrated: Tryig to Update from 2.2U

I've been looking all around for a way to update from 2.2U to 3.0 or something so I can use banner bomb... without having a game.

There doesn't seem to BE a way to do that... which is kinda weird.

I know on the PSP, for example, you can run anything on firmware 1.5... so I don't get what's keeping me from running bannerbomb on 2.2U

I don't have a game, don't particularly want to get one, and it's too late to run to the store anyway.

I've been on google for two hours trying to figure this out. So any help would be appreciated.

Thanks.

Fork out the 5 dollars to rent a game, us it to update. Then you can softmod your wii. Avoid 4.2.

Thanks. I knew about the game method... but, as I said before, I really didn't want to buy a game.

Anyway... 5 bucks wasn't gonna do. My solution:

$1.99 Zelda Crossbow Training Wii System 3.0 U

DONE.

Still... I'm not satisfied with this. There were like a thousand people asking the same question and everybody gave the same answer you got.

I do a bit of programming. I made a couple of apps for the PSP. I'm going to put an end to this nonsense once and for all. After all this time I'm going to come up with a program that you can just update straight from 2.2. After all this time you shouldn't even NEED Twilight princess or any game.

In the beginning with the PSP you needed a copy of Grand Theft Auto and there was the same kind of exploit. Over time though, they just figured out a way you could work it without even needing the game. I know you can do that now with bannerbomb... but you have to imagine the dude sitting at home at four in the morning... ready to go...

Yeah... I'm going to have to fix this.

You sure to bitch a lot for someone who just spent 2 bucks to mod his wii allowing him to rip off Big N and Friends for thousands. You received the same answer because that is the only way, with out Zelda or the other vulnerable games.
So how is a genius like yourself going to get a 2.2 wii to run your code without any game exploits- don't you think a lot of people who are likely smarter than yourself would have found a way if there was one.
One last thought, how many <3 wii do you think are out there, not very many.

Oh we are going to be GREAT friends.

You sure do talk a lot of **** for a dude that misspelled the word "do."

I don't think you have to be a genius. Matter of fact... I probably just need to be smarter than you... So I qualify!

Like I said, I actually have experience PROGRAMMING exploits (I actually have a lot more experience doing that than you do being a wannabe internet badass.) And my idea would be to use the existing Twilight hack only, instead of using a game to trigger it, I would use a program that fakes the game trigger.

I *understand* there are very few <3.0

But one is enough.

If there's one person on earth that I can help by writing a program like this, then I'm willing to give it a shot. (In spite of people like you.)

I program nothing. All I am say is the twilight hack is nothing more than a means to run code on the wii. You are saying you are going to write some code, but new code is not needed- you need to find a new vulnerability that exists on a 2 wii so you can run the code that already exists. But best of luck with that, you should be talking on wiibrew.org about your plans.

But while your at it, I would really like it if my wii had a jtag so I could flash my nand.

Also I know how to spell just fine, it is just difficult with three kids climbing on your back.

Hahaha... Told you we'd be friends.

I'll see what I could do about your jtag problem.

I don't need a new vulnerability... I believe the Twilight hack works on 2.2 doesn't it?

If not I won't waste my time. My idea was just to use something, besides twilight princess, to trigger the twilight hack. It's exactly what they did with banner bomb actually. I figure firmware as early as that has to have loopholes.

Thanks for pointing me towards Wiibrew. I'll do some digging.

I am sure there are more loopholes, but 4 have already been found. 3 games + bannerbomb, how many do you want? What we really need is a new boot2 exploit so we can all us bootmii to save our asses.

Alright. Explain what that means and I'll try to figure it out. I basically just got my Wii today. I know what boot2 is (I installed Bootmii earlier.)

I think you're talking about some sort of "Recovery Menu"... am I right?

I sort of studied the one they made for the PSP... that would be a cool thing to have on the Wii.

Maybe you can tell me what you know and then I can get creative.
