+## Markdown Styling
+
+When making contributions to the guide, it is optimal to be aware of the project's preferred Markdown formatting, so that documentation formatting can be consistent.
+
+### Headings
+
+* ATX style `#` headings should be used.
+* The same heading name can only be repeatedly used on headings with different parents.
+
+### Unordered Lists
+
+* Unordered lists should be created with the asterisk symbol `*` for consistency.
+* Unordered lists should be indented with four spaces, or a single press of `TAB` in an accordingly configured code editor.
+
+### Ordered Lists
+
+* Ordered lists should be created using the number one `1.` for consistency.
+
+### HTML Elements
+
+* The HTML elements `
`, `
`, ``, and `- `, can only be used in GitHub style tables.
+* The HTML element `
` can only be used outside of GitHub style tables as a workaround for line breaks after headings.
+
+### Horizontal Rules
+
+* Horizontal rules should only be created using triple hyphens `---`.
+
+### Code Blocks
+
+* Code blocks should only be created in a fenced style.
+* Code blocks should be created with the backtick symbol ` ``` `.
+
+### Text Formatting
+
+* Emphasis should be specified with the asterisk symbol `*`.
+* Boldness, or strong, should be specified with the asterisk symbol `**`.
+
+### Tables
+
+* Tables should be created with leading and trailing pipes.
+* Tables should be constructed in an aligned style whenever possible.

-# Brick Prevention
+## Brick Prevention
Preventing a brick involves many rules that range between common sense and fail-safe backups. Here are the general recommendations of what not to do:
-+ **Do NOT follow old modding tutorials, use old homebrew, or use video guides on the Internet unless it is EXPLICITLY RECOMMENDED by the homebrew developer.**
-+ **Do NOT, under ANY CIRCUMSTANCES, USE THE HOMEBREW APP `Pimp My Wii`. It is DANGEROUS and does things that have the ability to BRICK YOUR CONSOLE!**
-+ **Do NOT install IOS packs such as DARKCORP that overwrite most of your IOS with cIOS. It is DANGEROUS and heavily outdated.**
-+ **Do NOT restore NAND backups from other consoles!**
-+ **Do NOT install any IOS that isn't meant for your system** (example: Wii IOS on Wii mini)
-+ **Do NOT attempt region changing methods meant for Wii on the vWii or Wii mini.**
-+ **Do NOT use a Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection service unless it is known to be RCE patched (such as [Wiimmfi](nintendowfc)). Doing otherwise could allow a malicious actor to BRICK your console!**
-+ **Only install updates for your own region!**
- + Installing updates from another region could have no effect at best, or result in a [Korean Kii/Error 003](bricks#koreankii-error-003-brick) brick at worst. To prevent this from happening if you bought a pre-owned Wii, run [SysCheck](syscheck) to verify the original region of your console. If it is Korean, be EXTREMELY careful with applying system updates to your console, and consider seeking support for further assistance.
-+ **Do NOT delete or modify system files, install old versions of your Wii Menu or IOS, and do NOT install any system file mods unless you know what you are doing!**
- + An example of modifying files going wrong is replacing IOS80 on Wii mini, which may result in a [Wi-Fi Brick](bricks#wi-fi-brick).
-+ **Do NOT install homebrew from untrustworthy sources or if the source code is not available.**
- + Software on the [Open Shop Channel](osc) is safe.
- + There have been incidents of malicious software being developed for the Wii in the past, while other apps are just badly developed. Make sure that you know what you are installing, and only install what you need.
- + Corrupted or unstable forwarders for homebrew could cause a [banner brick](#banner-brick), so try to stick with loading homebrew from the Homebrew Channel unless you really want a forwarder.
-+ **Ensure that you know what you are doing when running homebrew apps - especially those with the ability to modify system files. Be ESPECIALLY careful when using applications such as:**
- + AnyTitle Deleter
- + AnyRegion Changer
- + KoreanKii (secondary cause of [Korean Kii/Error 003](bricks#koreankii-error-003-brick) brick)
- + Firmware Downgraders
- + Any other app that modifies critical NAND files
-+ **DO NOT TOUCH THE WII'S POWER SOURCE OR POWER BUTTONS WHEN INSTALLING OR MODIFYING CRITICAL SYSTEM CONTENT.**
- + If your electricity is unstable (e.g. storm, power outage), postpone what you are doing until you have a stable power source.
- + This applies to dangerous processes such as BootMii NAND restoration, which could lead to a [full brick](#low-level-brick) if anything goes wrong.
+* **Do NOT follow old modding tutorials, use old homebrew, or use video guides on the Internet unless it is EXPLICITLY RECOMMENDED by the homebrew developer.**

+ * Software on the [Open Shop Channel](osc) is safe.
+ * There have been incidents of malicious software being developed for the Wii in the past, while other apps are just badly developed. Make sure that you know what you are installing, and only install what you need.
+ * Corrupted or unstable forwarders for homebrew could cause a [banner brick](#banner-brick), so try to stick with loading homebrew from the Homebrew Channel unless you really want a forwarder.
+* **Ensure that you know what you are doing when running homebrew apps - especially those with the ability to modify system files. Be ESPECIALLY careful when using applications such as:**
+ * AnyTitle Deleter
+ * AnyRegion Changer
+ * KoreanKii (secondary cause of [Korean Kii/Error 003](bricks#koreankii-error-003-brick) brick)
+ * Firmware Downgraders
+ * Any other app that modifies critical NAND files
+* **DO NOT TOUCH THE WII'S POWER SOURCE OR POWER BUTTONS WHEN INSTALLING OR MODIFYING CRITICAL SYSTEM CONTENT.**
+ * If your electricity is unstable (e.g. storm, power outage), postpone what you are doing until you have a stable power source.
+ * This applies to dangerous processes such as BootMii NAND restoration, which could lead to a [full brick](#low-level-brick) if anything goes wrong.
In any case, you should absolutely:
-+ Have BootMii installed as boot2 if available, but otherwise as IOS.
-+ Have Priiloader installed regardless of BootMii installation method.
-+ Backup your NAND with BootMii and always have a valid spare copy on hand, but especially before attempting anything risky. Note that in some brick scenarios, BootMii is not accessible, so plan ahead.

+## Brick Types
Here, the different Wii bricks will be discussed in order of severity, with symptoms, causes, and solutions.
-## Semibrick
+### Semibrick
+
+#### Symptoms
-### Symptoms
When navigating to Wii Settings, you get an error from the Opera web browser with something along the lines of `You tried to access the address (URL), which is currently unavailable.` In some cases, some parts of the Wii Settings menu may still be accessible, but other parts may not (such as the Country menu).
-### Cause
+#### Cause
+
A semibrick occurs when a different region Wii Menu or a different region custom theme is installed. As the Wii Settings menu is rendered using HTML pages with Opera, themes often replace these pages and put them in different directories; essentially leading to a `404 Not Found` error but in the form of a console brick.

-## Banner brick
+### Banner brick
+
+#### Symptoms
-### Symptoms
You attempt to start the Wii, the health/warning screen shows up, and when A is pressed, the screen passes normally; however, beyond this point, nothing happens and the Wii remains on a black screen. This happened after installing a WAD and rebooting, or returning to the Wii Menu. Alternatively, the Wii Menu can still be accessed, but opening a particular channel results in the console freezing. In some cases, you may see the "System files are corrupted" screen.

-### Cause

If you are able to still access the Wii Menu, go into the Homebrew Channel and use [YAWM ModMii Edition](yawmme) or your current WAD manager to uninstall the corrupt channel.
If you cannot access the Wii Menu, and have [Priiloader](priiloader) installed, enter it by holding RESET while turning your Wii on. Select Homebrew Channel and use [YAWM ModMii Edition](yawmme) or your current WAD manager to uninstall the corrupt channel.
If you don't have or can't access Priiloader, Maintenance Mode may be worth a try. Hold down `+` and `-` on the health/warning screen (do not press `A`!).

You attempt to start the Wii, the health/warning screen shows up, and when A is pressed, the screen passes normally; however, beyond this point, nothing happens and the Wii remains on a black screen. Maintenance Mode is still accessible.
-### Cause
+#### Cause
+
A mail brick occurs when a Wii has too much mail to handle, or when malformed mail is in the Wii Message Board, causing a crash upon booting through normal means. Because the Wii Message Board is always drawn below Wii channels, this causes the Wii Menu to fail before fully loading.
-### Solution
+#### Solution
+
By entering holding + and - on the warning screen, Maintenance Mode can be entered, where the Wii Message Board is not loaded at all. If the Homebrew Channel is not installed, follow [Bluebomb](bluebomb).
From here, the Homebrew Channel can be loaded and the brick can be fixed by deleting Wii Message Board data with [cdbackup](https://oscwii.org/library/app/cdbackup).

When releasing the Korean Wiis, Nintendo changed the encryption key for these units specifically as a last ditch attempt at preventing homebrew. While this failed at its intended goal, Nintendo also left a check in the System Menu versions 4.2/4.3 to determine whether or not the Korean Key is present on a system software region that is **not** Korean. If this check succeeds, the error triggers and the Wii is effectively bricked.
This is usually an immediate follow-up to a Wii System Update on an unsuspecting region-changed Korean Wii.
-### Solutions
+#### Solutions

Since this brick most often occurs after the Wii Menu updates, Priiloader will not be present. In the case that Priiloader is present, you can simply fix it by either installing the previous Wii System Menu or removing the key with the KoreanKii homebrew app.
Korean Wiis released with Wii Menu 3.3, around the time that Nintendo [fixed the Trucha bug in boot1](https://wiibrew.org/wiki/3.3#Changes), so BootMii as boot2 cannot be installed to or used on any Korean Wii.
While this leaves the Wii in a particularly dangerous situation, **it is still fixable**. This involves going into [Recovery Mode](recovery-mode), where an exploit can be triggered in order to gain access to the Homebrew Channel and revert the conditions that caused the brick. Note that you must have a drivechip in order for this method to work.

First, troubleshooting must be done to determine if hardware is at fault. In the order listed, do the following:
-+ Test to make sure that your Wii actually still functions (it accepts discs as normal, spins up correctly, Wiimotes connect) before attempting the following steps. If this is the case and only video is not being displayed, you may have a bad video cable, or an exceptionally rare failure of the video port or the GPU.
-+ If on a Wii mini, and if a normal IOS80 was installed, see [Wi-Fi brick](bricks#wi-fi-brick). If steps to resolve the Wi-Fi brick failed, proceed.
-+ Attempt to boot into [Recovery Mode](recovery-mode) (normal Wiis only). If the Wii boots into Recovery Mode, see [Wi-Fi brick](bricks#wi-fi-brick) or [IOS brick](bricks#ios-brick). If steps to resolve the Wi-Fi brick or IOS brick failed, proceed.
-+ Reseat the disc drive and attempt to boot normally. If still unsuccessful, replace the disc drive. If still unsuccessful, proceed.
-+ At this point, either there is a low-level boot0/boot1 corruption, a NAND chip failure, or there is a wider unknown hardware failure. Consider consulting online help or buying another Wii.

When buying SD cards, it is generally recommended that you stick to well-known brands the more expensive and larger capacity that you get. While you can buy a generic 2GB SD card and most likely be safe, the same cannot be said for something like a 512GB SD card. General current pricing for SD cards is around 10-35 USD for 256GB and below, whereas 512GB is around 60 USD. When buying off of Amazon, make sure that your card is either `Sold by/Shipped by Amazon` or `Sold by [brand], Shipped by Amazon`. Be wary when buying storage on eBay.

As for your choices in shopping, this largely comes down to three different scenarios:
-+ Buying a new external hard drive from scratch: New external drives come brand new around 60 USD for 2TB, 50 USD for 1TB, around 30 USD for sizes lower than 1TB. Whatever you do, try to stick within the three present manufacturing brands listed above, but bear in mind that offerings are sparse for drive sizes lower than 1TB.

An example price is buying a 500GB Western Digital drive and a 2.5 inch drive enclosure off of Amazon - all in all, about 30 USD.

# Recovery Mode
-Recovery Mode is a last resort method for recovering your Wii console from a brick before resorting to hard-modding and manual NAND programming. This mode was accessed by Nintendo employees in the factory by the usage of a special dongle, but the input needed to access it can easily be replicated with a GameCube controller. Essentially, Recovery Mode puts a Wii Menu in a state where programs can be executed from a disc.
+Recovery Mode is a last resort method for recovering your Wii console from a brick before resorting to hard-modding and manual NAND programming. This mode was accessed by Nintendo employees in the factory by the usage of a special dongle, but the input needed to access it can easily be replicated with a GameCube controller. Essentially, Recovery Mode puts a Wii Menu in a state where programs can be executed from a disc.
## How Recovery Mode Works
On System Menu versions 2.1 and upwards, booting into Recovery Mode will yield a version number display on the bottom right of the screen, and will idle on the screen while waiting for a disc to be inserted. By default, Recovery Mode only boots two types of discs:
-+ A disc whose title ID starts with a number like 0 or 1 - an autoboot disc. All retail game discs are **not** an autoboot disc and instead start with a letter.
-+ A retail game disc that has a valid update partition whose version is higher than the one on the NAND.
+* A disc whose title ID starts with a number like 0 or 1 - an autoboot disc. All retail game discs are **not** an autoboot disc and instead start with a letter.
+* A retail game disc that has a valid update partition whose version is higher than the one on the NAND.
This check can be bypassed using Priiloader, which allows Recovery Mode to boot any disc that is inserted into the Wii. Unfortunately, if you can already access Priiloader, then there is no need to use Recovery Mode in the first place as you can fix your brick by booting homebrew apps in it. With this said, if you are in a situation where the only accessible option is using Recovery Mode, you must have a drivechip on hand to bypass the disc check. If are able to bypass this check one way or another, you may follow the instructions below to start from Recovery Mode and get to the HackMii installer.
