You working on a fix for the moving the game issue?
I am wanting to take a shot and install this but I would be even more tempted to do so knowing your trying to resolve that issue.
I cant do anything about that, I already said I did not hardcode anything inside the exploit payload, so if moving really fucks it up then its the wiiu itself that does and I obviously cant fix that.

Just installed this, great work. Had no problems.

I setup a second vc ds game for haxchi so I can boot into my other apps.

I have a question though, not sure if its been asked.

I have set it to autoboot my cfw coldboot fw.img which boots to sysnand, thats great.

Now once thats loaded what if I wanted to go into my rednand, what options do I have other than swapping the default fw.img on the root of the sd card everytime.

Now I tried adding the rednand fw.img into my config.txt for my second haxchi channel but it just boots back into the sysnand.

I know I can interrupt the autoboot but I then dont have an option to change the fw.img.

I know rednand isn't of much use at the moment but I have it setup and would still like to get access to it.

If anyone has any suggestions that would be great.

Would it not be possible to add an entry into into the CBHC menu, for example, have the fw.img in a rednand folder on the sd card root, what you could then do is say have cfw-coldboot set to autoboot and then if you wanted to access rednand interrupt it and select your rednand.

Its just an idea and might not be possible.

Hello all, sadly I have just bricked my Wii U. Everything went smoothly without error until I rebooted to test. The last thing I did was move the DS game I used into a folder so I don't ever click on it. I would be surprised if that's what caused it though.
I don't want to spook anyone to not install this because I'm sure I did something wrong.

More info:
I was running on an older haxchi (before 2.0).
The DS game I used was not brand new, as I have loaded it up before.
The last thing I did was move the DS game I used into a folder for safe keeping.

Edited: This is exactly what I see when I boot up.

"There is a problem with the system memory.
For help, make a note of the error code and visit support.nintendo.com.
Error Code: 160-0103
(1) 5.5.1 U (2) WUP-101(02) (3) FW105051785 (4) XXXX-02X0-3110"
I never get to use this very much, so I'm going to <3

--------------------- MERGED ---------------------------

@FIX94 Should I install this to my shitty 8gb console that we tested the NAND dumper on to see if it killed Wii Us? lmao

I can load rednand just fine. I have 2 DS hachi games like you (original one and one just for Fix's coldboot)
Coldboot into system menu > original hachi game > hold B boots rednand fw.img from SD:\rednand\fw.img

You need to coldboot into system menu not fw.img to load rednand with your haxchi that still uses config.txt

Yes, i understand what you mean, cheers.

I can confirm, that works perfectly, exactly what ive been after since I installed coldboot a few weeks ago.

This is working great! Thanks for the hard work!
Though, it seems that whenever I try to exit the homebrew launcher channel, my wii u freezes, and I have to hard reset. Is there a way of fixing this?

Guys there are no problems with his coldboot, mine works perfectly. You need to set up your SD card correctly and follow the instructions perfectly. The only problem that there was, was the usb which was fixed. The rest is all Wii u related and he can't do anything about it. Great work you have put in fix by far the best and most reliable coldboothax out.

I agree it's an excellent implementation but not one for people with inquisitive kids.

So once this is installed. The Haxchi (DS Injected) game on my homescreen will or wont function the same as it is now? I've got it set up to autoboot sig patches and holding A on boot will launch HBC

As of now, even though i have HBC installed I can't boot it, even with sigpatches - I get a white screen crash.

Exactly my only worry is I have my girlfriend living with me and she always goes on my Wii u lol. She knows how to use it though...had to teach her and explain it for a minute but I think she gets it now lol.

It only becomes an issue, if you move it into a folder, so why not accept the current instructions on "Don't Touch it". It's not a BIG deal to have the icon on the main screen in the first place and everything else can moved to your liking.
