wiikey2 + wiiclip v14 + 4.2 Update --> now backups don't work

**kikkko** · 09-30-2009 06:05 AM

My little brother updated the wii console accidentally to 4.2.
Now other region games and backups dont work anymore. Only original games work.
Is there any possibility to downgrade wii firmware version with DVD?
Or should I wait until there is another update for wiikey 2?

I'm not sure whether I'd just updated to 4.1 or 4.2 last night, likely the latter. My situation is that only some backups no longer load while some still do, and original discs work. I bet Nintendo has just thrown a bomb with the latest update.

Anyone reading this? Here a warning! Please don't apply any update to be safe, either 4.1 or 4.2 until WiiKey2 authority finds a solution!!!

I'm having this same problem. I have a wiikey2 and just updated to 4.2 & now I can't play half my wii games. Hopefully wiikey will send an update soon.

I am sure glad I read before I ever update. I will just stay where I am at for now and see what happens down the road.
yes, I hope wiikey comes up with an update soon too. I am sure they will.

I have now got imports working once more.

I needed to reinstall cios38rev14 installer from Homebrew Channel and use
ios250 to install with network download.

the games will not show on the disc channel but will load using Gecko OS
from the Homebrew Channel.

I have wiikey 2 and softmod

I installed the 4.2 update using waninko's safe updater.

First I updated my Homebrew Channel, now at 1.6
I Then installed the wii shop channel, as at first I wasn't sure I wanted to update

So now on 4.2u and everything works fine. USBloader GX, Wiigators backuploader 1.3, Homebrew Channel 1.6

My backups play fine. I don't play imports, so was never worried about that. But the backup loader is fine for that.
