Comex needs assistance for BaNNeRBoMB Exploit

If you doubted the new Wii exploit we reported on a few days ago, this new bit of information might make it seem all that more feasible.
Comex has asked the Homebrew Community to help him “debug” and gain information about his new exploit. He has asked us to run a small program on our Wii that in short, tells us whether the exploit is compatible with your Wii or not. Instructions below:
If anyone wants to help out do this– any menu version, HBC already installed, gecko not required:
1. temporarily rename the private folder on SD to something else, if you have one
2. download this file and unzip it onto the root of the SD
3. go to the menu, data management (not SD menu if you’re on 4.0)
4. go to channels, SD, ensure there is a channel with a blank banner titled “Ninja Gaiden”
5. return immediately to the menu using the back button (not the home button…), go to HBC, and launch it
6. download and run this. it will create a file on your SD with the title “report.txt”. Email me a copy of it (comexk@gmail.com)
Yes, that’s right, any Wii will work, so we suggest you try it out and contribute to what could be the next great exploit for the Wii!
Alright, sounds like a plan. Be glad to help if a new exploit can be made from this
How do i put an SD card in my wee? do i pee in a jar or something?
Nice Try Troll
but its wee….how do you do it?
Kris is hot
seems bit weird to me…
so what exacly will this do can any wii get downgraded/have homebrew installed
read the info bro, it explains it lol
but its to help Comex build data on which Wii’s are compatible with this new hack to come (ex.will it be compatible with the new 4.0)
he know 3.2U will work coming from the data pulled from this programs off of multiple wiis
this program checks that the exploit can first of all execute on the targetted wii, and then it writes certain values to different areas of the wii’s memory map. the second program tests the memory to see if the written data remains in memory.
the upshot of this is that hopefully the exploit will allow the installation of HBC on any wii version including 4.0 onwards.
Done my bit already
Good luck with the exploit Comex!
I can`t download it knows anyone where i can download the file?
sorry for the bad text i hollands
Aren’t Dutch known for the fact that they can all speak English? I know I am and I can
Number 6 says “download and run this. it will create a file on your SD with the title “report.txt”.” What am I supposed to do with the .dol file i get from that download?
Ryan – you run the dol from your wii homebrew menu (you can only get the report.txt if you already have hbc installed).
This is great I have done my part I hope this will be released soon
will this install hbc on a virgin wii?
what if i dont have the homebrew channel????
hey i have it on my sd card did the steps but when i go back to the menu i get a blank screen what do i do
no it don’t work on my 4.0 wii.
i can see the file but not launch it
