I'm hoping this community has the answer. There must be something I haven't tried yet. I've also tried doing the SmashStack (i think its called), using Modmii, and all of these end up freezing at the same place. My Wii hasn't been connected to the internet since I got it, so I haven't entertained the possibility of an update error. im using 4.3U, and I made sure of that when installing the letterbomb files. I thought no problem, I'll install it again: but every time I've done so, it has frozen at the "Press 1/Scam Screen".Īfter all this reading, I'm sure I am doing this right: 1 I am trying to install the homebrew channel on my wii u.

So, Im unable to update the Homebrew Channel to version 1.1.2, which seems to be required in the guide in your link. Hacking Wii U installing Homebrew Channel, Stuck on scam screen. I clicked 'Install the Homebrew Channel', confirmed and - crash - familiar black screen. However, upon doing so, I noticed the HBC icon was removed from the Wii menu. As I have an older version of Homebrew Channel, I followed the steps in the instructions to update it to 1.1.2 with HackMii Installer v1.2. After doing so successfully, I attempted to put back the old files back on to the SD card, hoping that my old apps would run as they used to (I had saved the SD card files somewhere). However recently, I changed the files on my SD card so I could play Project M on the Wii. I used it in conjunction with Nintendont to play modded versions of Smash Bros and other games too. I had the Homebrew Channel up and running for a while. So, I'm not usually one to post for help, but after countless hours of googling, I still haven't found a solution to this problem.
