Well to be fair, I was following a guide that wasn't completely re-edited. I talked to the guy who made it and he apologized. It's not been edited correctly.when people brick it's mostly their own fault. i'm using coldboothax and gonna keep using it. There's 0 percent for me that i'll ever brick using coldboothax
I am going to try it and see what they say. Maybe use the "the power shut off when I was updating a game"then bring it to gamestop if theres no visual sign of a softmod you could be lucky
Basically, I used this guide that overlapped the two haxchiwhat have you done btw youve installed haxchi over youre dsvc again after installing cbhc
No, this entire section was replaced with a new guide on just installing the homebrew launcher instead :/you mean the bold one was added after you bricked youre console?
Its really not your fault. I should had gone back to the main wii u menu and double checked that the secondary brain age was installed. I basically added the second haxchi while still in the homebrew menuSorry it was my fault this happened to you, but then again I don't see how my old steps can cause a brick if you followed them. This should have left you with two different DS VC, one used for CBHC and the other used for Haxchi. I switched the guide to use Homebrew Channel Launcher instead since its risky for users because you can possibly install haxchi over the CBHC DS VC. I myself have switched to homebrew launcher channel (But then I get a black screen when I exit from it for some reason)
I still dont quite understand where you've messed up
You can't install two of the same game unless they are different regions! thats where you messed up!installed haxchi over my cbhc vc after I installed a secondary "Brain Age" vc to the wii U. The secondary vc overlapped the first cbhc vc and after rebooting it was bricked

yes that happend quite often last days i have my cbhc installed on pokemon mystery dungeon and my secondary haxchi via brainage

i probably write a complete up to date guide later and hope it gets replaced with the outdated guides at this site

My guide happens to be very useful to a lot of users. I mostly made it as a way for me to document what I understand about Wii U hacking while also being helpful to others. It's a guide that should be taken with caution, which I did put up a warning for that section. This was the only mishap that happened in a long time, and a personal mistake. I either need to add some more red signs in the cbhc section, or remove it altogether. Personally, CBHC is super easy to use so I didn't mind having it on there. I switched to HBL Channel because I figured it was risky with another haxchi. Yeah it was my dumb idea overall to use a secondary haxchi, which worked just fine for me but after a while I realized how unsafe it was.Please dont make guides when you dont understand whats happening.. Seconly why on earth would you guide someone to have cbhc and haxchi ?
Basically, I used this guide that overlapped the two haxchi
1) Download a DS VC game that you don't like such as Big Brain Academy or Brain Age using something like Wii U USB Helper or Funkii-UI
2) Add the DS VC to an install folder on your SD
3) Download these Secondary Haxchi files and add them to your SD card, replace the files
4) Turn on your Wii U and it will autoboot cfw (The system menu option in CBHC)
5) Use your browser and go to loadiine.ovh/550/HBLK
6) Once on Homebrew Launcher, choose WUP Installer Y Mod
7) Install the DS VC to system memory then press home to exit (DO NOT install to USB storage)
8) Choose Haxchi and install it over the DS VC game you just installed (DO NOT install it over the one used for coldbooting!!!) If you get stuck on a white screen, turn it off and try agan"
This was removed from the guide after I talked to him
It's not called brazilian method, there's no legit tickets used for DS VC games.I'm not sure but in step one we should buy a copy of a ds vc game and not install it with the brazilian method. I might be wrong though
ONLY INSTALL THIS IF THE DS VC IS BOUGHT FROM THE ESHOP ON THAT CONSOLE AND ON NAND
Yeah and I also struggle to understand how people can fuxk up so badly, when really its so easy to do! it may of been a little harder back in the days of extracting the system.xml file and changing strings but now there are methods that you cannot go wrong with, if you follow the instructions thoroughly that is. I did it along time ago using this guide and it still went ok>https://docs.google.com/document/d/1leNhUfQ7rgJHgn33WN_Ay42uWtCi4F-gyL1m_xbwqjI/editI will never understand the interrest about this coldboothax...
Without coldboothax, you have only to press once on haxchi to launch a CFW. And keep an access to sysmenu is ALWAYS a good thing (for recover rednand or whatever).
Coldboothax need to be more securised for common use, or we need a boot0/boot1 exploit to be sure to have a way to launch a recover image or something similar
