Hi guys a quick question, how do i use Dopmii if i have 4.2 and want to use the wii shop channel for 4.3?

I'm too lazy to check but, if you have the latest version of Dop-Mii you could check channels and look if it alows you to install the channel for 4.3 there. You could also always get Dop-Shop and install the newest version of the Shop channel if you can't with Dop-Mii. I hope this helps.

My son accidentally upgraded to 4.3e. Good thing I had a copy of my Wii on my computer. Dop-Mii was excellent to help me through everything too.
So I recommend backing up your Wii + checking everything with Dop-Mii

If you have the latest HBC, updating to 4.3 is safe.

Does that mean that updating won't wipe out the ability to use cheats on WiiWare/Virtual Console games anymore?

Hm...I don't know if System Menu updates will remove patches from other IOS.  Your question implies that it used to...so I would say that 4.3 will probably wipe out channel cheats because it's unpatching IOS36.  EDIT: what it will not do is remove HBC, because 1.0.8 uses a different Title ID that 4.3 will not remove.

However, the process of patching IOS36 is much simpler than it used to be.  An official update is probably the easiest way to get the Shop Channel back.  Then use Simple IOS patcher or something like that; it uses AHBPROT instead of downgrading IOS14, which was a process fraught with peril.

The reason I asked was because I did the system update before to update the Shop Channel and when I went through the process to get my WW/VC cheats back in Gecko, I lost the ability to play newer games (Metroid: Other M and Epic Mickey to name a couple) through the normal Wii launcher and had to load them through Gecko anyway. I'd like to only use Gecko when I want to play around with cheat codes and use the normal method of booting up game disks when I want to play a game straight, yet also not lose my Load Channel option in Gecko. Is that possible at all or am I just pipe dreaming here?

^Launch your game through Gecko OS, 'nuff said.

And other than "shady stuff", nowadays you can use nearly any homebrew on 4.3

I assume you mean, "how do I play games that require installing a new IOS, without updating the System Menu?"

If you use Gecko OS instead of the Disc Channel to play games, and a new game requires the installation of a new IOS, Gecko OS will read the update partition on the disc and install the new IOS without updating the System Menu.  So just use Gecko OS instead of the Disc Channel for all games.

Quote2 My little brother updated his WII so what are his options

If the Homebrew Channel was already installed and updated to 1.0.8, then updating the System Menu is safe.

If the HBC was not installed, or was out-of-date, then you will need to re-run the Hackmii Installer to get HBC.  This requires a gamesave exploit of some sort if you're on 4.3.  Read this whole post, specifically the part about exploits and the Hackmii Installer.
