hi, recently i bought a wii.... i was configuring the internet and it asked me to update in order to go on9... so i accidentally updated my wii and the screen went black after upgrading...

i went to the shop and they say that my wii is condemned.... is there any other solution?

thanks

sorry to say that ur wii now officially transformed into a paper weight, korean modded wii + new update = brick and no way to recover as far as i know till date

if u intend to buy another one, do get an unmodded wii to avoid this again. u are not a modder. modded wii is for modders. and modders know what they r doing.

sorry lad. the wii's most probably gone.

wow , the seller din ask u not to do that??

well depends where you buy it but mostly they dont even care to tell you anything

well, some shops do tell you to not use the online function at all, including to play games just to avoid your wii from getting bricked

but anyway, i do feel sorry for the new wii owner to find himself in this situation

there may be a solution...but i think it's wayyy too complicated (and not 100% proven to be successful) in helping to unbrick your wii

haih..next time when thinkering...ask or google around first. Even the PS3, some noob sometimes mistakenly dload the wrong update

now we can't do anything to help u.

nope it proven there is no way to unbrick korean region changed that have being updated to the lastest firmware *YET* but in another a year or so maybe but i doubt you going to wait for that long.

actually this is the problem with most of the softmodded WII here in malaysia, internet was not configured properly the shop suppose to set teh EULA to be read so customer wont be forced to update when trying to turn w24connect thingy and it forced to update the WII

I really feel sorry for the TS but can't do anything about it

there are ways out there (which claims to be successful)...but it involves opening up the wii and performing a bypass or something which is sooo complicated

But, i think there's even a vid showing how it is done (as far as i can recall)...however, i doubt anyone would be really be willing to go that far for something that he or she doesn't know how to do...it may even cause some other internal damage to the hardware too...who knows?XD

RIP cham

If you know me , i sure ask u no matter wad u do DONT UPDATE lolx

My friend's wii has recovered back to life by changing the motherboard

Yes need a modchip and need to open the WII, and some other method but i doubt by default the shop installed the need program to recover from brick, but if he got a 003 brick then the WII is dead no way of recovering till date.

that the same as buy a new one it not easy to find someone selling WII motherboard

better off buying a used PS3 now for RM750 - 1K

and get God of War 3. That's the no 1 reason I get PS3.

i found a lot of wii motherboard for sale.... u think this can solve my problem?? haha... thanks guys for the infos~

n give ur wii to girlfriend, wife, or daughter
they will enjoy wii more than us

if you can buy a new board then that would fix your problem new board much cheaper than buy a whole set of wii

true. but make sure u be careful next time. Or, if you don't want to go through the hassle, then buy an unmodded.

For everything else, we can now close the thread.

i tot for everything else, there's VISA

There's ATM card lah
