    Revised steps (On behalf of Comex the creator of bannerbomb and dvdx ios downgrader)

    Disclaimer Read First
    As with any files used on Wii that alter the machine in any way, this runs the (small)risk of bricking (making the Wii useless) if you don't follow the guide 100% correctly, whilst this has never happend to anyone using my guides yet, it could possibly happen, Yafaze is in no way responsible for misuse of the guide and files. Thanks

    BACKUP YOUR SD CARD BEFORE ANYTHING ELSE
    DELETE EVERYTHING ON YOUR SD CARD OR THIS WILL NEVER WORK
    ONLY THE FILES IN THE 2 ZIPS SHOULD BE ON THE SD CARD!!!
    WILL NOT WORK ON LU64+ SERIAL NUMBERED Wii's

    What you need:

    WiFi (Important)

    "DOWNLOAD1" http://bannerbomb.qoid.us/ (Grab the newest aad1f_vxxx.zip and extract the private folder to the root of the SD Card)

    "DOWNLOAD2" http://www.yafaze.com/wii/files/4.0softmod.rar

    Instructions:

    Put the contents of both zips on your SD Card as it is in the zip, just drag all to SD Card.

    Go to Data Management then choose Channels followed by SD

    Choose "Yes" to load boot.dol

    LoadMii will then load.

    Press "A" on the WiiMote.

    Go down to DowngraderIOS35.dol and run it by pressing "A" on the WiiMote.
    Choose downgrade IOS35 and then let it go, then choose exit (ignore the patchmii and dvdx)

    You'll be back in LoadMii now.

    Go down and run Wad Manager 1.4 by pressing "A" on WiiMote.

    Just select normal settings (don't change IOS)

    Install IOS35.wad.

    Exit Wad Manager 1.4 by pressing "HOME"

    You'll be back in LoadMii.

    Run Wad Manager again, Select IOS35 when it asked what IOS to use.

    Install the CIOSv7.wad.

    Press "Home" to exit.

    Then Run Wad Manager again.

    Tell it to use IOS249.

    Install IOS36.wad, BUL3g.wad & HBC.wad


    You will now restart Wii to find that Backuplauncher and Homebrew Channel are installed and working.


    Should be all hacked now and ready to grab the new version of CIOS (v13b atm) from yafaze.com.


    Further Steps

    WARNING!
    Do not install Preloader before installing IOS60.wad. This will create a (fixable) semi-brick. If you want to use Preloader, install it after IOS60.

    To enable playing wad installed games from the 4.0 SD menu:
    - Install IOS60.wad using Wad Manager (from either HBC or the same way you booted it during guide) http://www.yafaze.com/wii/files/IOS60.rar

    To enable the use of USB Loader and to fix the 002 error on most backup discs:
    - Install CIOSv13b Using HBC http://www.yafaze.com/wii/files/ciosrev13binstaller.rar

    To downgrade your IOS files to Trucha Bugged versions for Preloader and other homebrew applications:
    - Run IOSdowngrader using HBC http://www.teknoconsolas.tv/wanin/IOS-Downgrader_v1.zip (This will not change your System Menu version.)

    THANKS:

    Nintendo for the actual console. (please do buy games if you really really like em)
    Comex: for bannerbomb and the dvdx ios35 downgrader.
    Hackmii: for all there insightful info's and the HBC
    and last but definitely not least Waninkoko, if it were not for all of your apps guys, we'd be nowhere. webpagehttp://yafaze.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=46&t=113
