Hello, i've updated HBC with the HBC first and my applications wont appear in HBC, so i've tried Uninstalling and then installing it from HackMii Installer 0.2 but still no luck, anyone knows how could i fix this? (I have 4.0E on my wii) --[[User:Tusk|Tusk]] 18:15, 16 June 2009 (UTC)

Hello, since 1.0.3 the time spent on the HBC and homebrew games is not displayed anymore on the "bureau". Very disapointing. How to get back to 1.0.1 please.

I think the HBC should have music in the main menu and a sfx when you pop a bubble

This isn't a question or a bug, so I'm putting it here. It bugs the CRAP out of me that the homebrew channel is blue. Homebrews can range from white wheat ales to the blackest of stouts, but if your homebrew is blue, you've done something very wrong. [[User:RandomFerret|RandomFerret]] 0:54, 7 June 2008 (EST)
  βˆ’
:Hey, you're not alone, Randomferret. I feel the same way. Home brew is not supposed to be blue unless you've got a smurf infestation under the kitchen sink or the bathroom cabinet where you've hidden the hooch. [[User:Flark|Flark]] 13:27, 9 December 2008 (UTC)

== sd card icon ==
    
i think it is extra to have an sd card icon if you also have an sdhc card icon. i don't think its likely that a program would support sdhc but not support sd. so no icon means not supported at all, sd icon means only sd but no sdhc, and sdhc icon means all supported [[User:Yossi|yossi]] 12:41, 13 November 2008 (UTC)

: Yes, it does work, with the new 3.4 Twilight Hack, just ignore the warning, it's simply there, because 3.4 wasn't out, when the last HBC was made. It should work anyways! chrisis 17:11, 24 November 2008 (UTC)

== All first letters should be upper case in "the homebrew channel"? ==

  βˆ’
Is it just me, or should't each word in "the homebrew channel" begin with an upper-case letter like all the official Nintendo channels? (both the hovering text(this one's already "correct"), and the graphic text in the animation of the channel)
  βˆ’
I think it'd look better following the standard of the other channels.

When I start the wii and lunch the HBC, it doesn't find the apps on my SDHC card. Then, when I click on Reload and it finds all the apps on my card. Inside apps, my SDHC card works very well, also when I live apps, I come back on the HBC and it works well there too. --[[User:Gerome|Gerome]] 16:20, 1 March 2009 (UTC)

== Feature Request: ADD USB Support ==
  βˆ’
  βˆ’
I don't have an SD card so I load most of the applications using wiiload. Having an USB key I put all the homebrew applications on that key and I use wiiload to get Loadmii working inside the homebrew channel. This allows me after to run everything from USB. However it would be nice to implement directly additional USB support inside the homebrew channel so there is no need to use the wiiload/loadmii through a wireless connection each time.

: [[System Menu 4.0]] says, "New install and if copied to the SD card, cannot be move back to the system memory (running a channel requires copying it to memory)." I'm happy to be corrected, but I believe this implies that if the HBC is copied to the SD card, it becomes useless. --[[User:IanWatson|IanWatson]] 02:14, 29 April 2009 (UTC)

The update for this breaks preloader's ability to boot into HBC. I don't know to revert to an older version, wait for the -now unmaintained- preloader to be updated or what. --[[User:RePod|&#91;RePod&#93;]] 04:37, 1 October 2009 (UTC)

: Yeah if only there will be an update on preloader soon, I think preloader only launches the channel with the ticket HAXX, since HBC changes it's ticket to JODI..it will (eventually) load nothing.--[[User:Keithpichu|Keithpichu]] 10:00, 6 October 2009 (UTC)

Amazing update, however quick question about the new view. Is there any way to default the HBC to the new view? As of right now I switch to the new view pressing 2 yet it defaults back to the old view ever time I boot up HBC.

I agree, the new view is GREAT! It would be nice to save the last setting. Also because the new view relies entirely on the icon for identification, it would also be great for a title popup on mouseover. <small>β€”Preceding unsigned comment added by [[User:Donsch|Donsch]] ([[User talk:Donsch|talk]] β€’ [[Special:Contributions/Donsch|contribs]]) 20:57, 7 October 2009 (UTC)</small>
