Hacking Official CBHC v1.6 - ColdBoot HaxChi CFW

This needs to be quoted in red and add more detail about not touching "NEVER touch the DS VC you used to install it again and just generally be smart about it, I am not responsible for your dead wiiu because of user error."

"NEVER touch the DS VC you used to install it again and just generally be smart about it"

I hate to be the last post of the page.

It's okay. It was my own dumb mistake. Although I definitely didn't think that simply moving it into a folder would cause such a disaster. Moving the homebrew launcher app around on the system menu seemed safe, so I mistakenly thought moving this DS game would be safe as well.

I think it means, exactly, don't touch the ds vc.

But I might be wrong

 

[WiiuGold]

Have you bought the DS VC in the eShop?

 

[nitrostemp]

i feel like the wiiu works with a computer-esq structure, so like this C:\haxchi.elf and after putting it in a folder it became C:\folder\haxchi.elf and so coolboot could not find the file..

 

[Brothority]

Have you bought the DS VC in the eShop?

Yes, along with New Super Mario Bros. DS

 

[sabykos]

Yes, along with New Super Mario Bros. DS

OK, then I have no idea what caused this.

It's alright. I'm not confident that an unbricking solution can be made in the (near) future. But I guess I'll be sticking to following the CEMU emulator. Maybe I'll be back in 5 years for the Nintendo Switch lol.

Well, it still would be a good thing to know what exaclty caused this...

 

[Reecey]

Oh, no I've bricked my WiiU!

I'm going to assume it's what nitrostemp said above. Makes the most sense to me.

Nope, the WiiU doesn't work like that.

 

[Brothority]

Could it be I wasn't on the latest Haxchi? I was on some version before 2.0. I saw no reason to upgrade because mine was working just fine.

Edit: I also made my Wii U region free some time ago if that helps with anything.

I move the ds game used by haxchi to a folder too after install CBHC,just like brothority but my wiiu woks fine,set autoboot fw.img on sd.all games run perfect.only autoboot in to system menu got error when run usb games.the ds game used is brain age.im also use the old haxchi before its had HBL installer,and did the regionfree hax too,use wupclient.

Well as far as i can see the CBHC installer installs the latest haxchi. So that cant be the problem. The thing with region free... no haxchi worked before for, so that cant be it. There are only two possibilities imo. Either system.xml points to the wrong titleid or it points to the right id, but the game isnt there. Both wuite unlikely according to what youve said...

EDIT: Has anyone else installed Coldboothax with Yoshis Island DS?

 

[Cylent1]

This is even more dangerous and scary than when coldboot hax was first mentioned. Upgrades are supposed to bring stability right? lol jk....
I for one am gonna pass on this one. I have kids that like to play the wiiu and they have their own little folders on the home menu so this is a no-go for me.

after installation, does it exit back to the home menu or reboot and use coldboot-haxchi?
if it reboots and use the installed coldboot, then it worked fine before he moved the game to a folder, which means it was properly installed. something he did after the installation has cause its current situation.

if it exits to the wiiu menu without patching it, and he moved the game before rebooting, could it be a bad install ?

 

[sabykos]

It exits to the menu. Whether the installation has worked or not is reveiled after a reboot.
