What are you trying to do, first things first?

 

[datrico89]

iam trying to update to 5.3.2 but it gave me an error so iam on 3.1.0

What error?

Yes, HBC only need IOS 58 without any patch, and yes, Wii U will not update if at trying to overwrite previous IOS on Wii side it found fake signed ones.

~I don't understand the confusion. As far as any of us know, using vwii homebrew and CIOS won't affect updates on the Wii U. vWii and Wii U are basically seperate.

That's not correct, when you update your Wii U it will also update some IOS on Wii side, it happens that Nintendo will only update system critical IOS like 58, 36, 37, etc. Others don't get touched, that's why it's recomendable only install cIOS in slots +200, they will never be updated by Nintendo. If you have the bad idea to patch your IOS 58 then it's highly possible you can't update your Wii U, because it will check the IOS 58, will check that it's fake signed, and the update process will get stuck.

I´m sorry, I didn´t copy the number but it was at 99% of the instalation process

Try updating again and copy down the error number. Run a SysCheck too using the guide in my signature.

... I'm fairly certain IOS 58 is integral to many games and most homebrew, though?...

DO NOT FOLLOW THESE INSTRUCTIONS!

I'm so glad I read this. Don't listen to Ray Lewis. Uninstalling the IOS is the one of the worst things you could possibly do at this point. Just run a SysCheck and copy down that error number.

Ah okay, thanks for the clarification. Why would anybody patch their IOS58 then? Doesn't IOS58 already work fine for homebrew as it is? Is there any positive reason or benefit to patching it? I know we use slots 200 and it's fine, but patching something so integral like 58, 36 etc. seems like a very bad idea.

They're likely following ancient guides for Wii homebrew that tell people they need to patch IOS 58 if they're on FW 4.2 or lower. Basically everything you shouldn't do when modding vWii rolled into one bad decision

I'm not convinced it's 58. The OP hasn't mentioned the channel being flipped.

As I read it's common for IOS58 to show "USB 2.0" on syscheck (at least on Wii U) and this is probably what makes him think that IOS58 is the problem.
I'm pretty sure mine shows the same thing in syscheck (I ran it once but it was a while ago so I can't be sure) and I definitely haven't touched that IOS.

I ran syscheck after I ¨overwrote¨ ios58 with the clean one that OriginalHamster sent to me, but sycheck keep saying ios58 usb access, and now I read that syscheck shows that way the information about that ios. I haven´t done the update process again with all the ¨changes¨ but I alredy did the process to ios80 too, that was the one that I patched for custom channels but the information was not displayed in syscheck aparently correct in first place , I just overwrote that ios80 with clean one because I remember I used a patch sometime ago, but that information was not dysplayed in syscheck it just said ¨SinParches¨, but I have forwaders installed, VC .... I have no conclusions yet about update Iam going to try sometime in this week. I used syscheck 2.3.2 I´m sorry any mistakes writing in english

Actually custom channels work without messing with any IOS, patching IOS80 is only needed if you want to run them using the "SD Card Menu" feature.

 

[datrico89]

It worked!!! I´m on 5.3.2, I think it was just vios80 the one patched. Thank you everyone for all the help

Glad this is worked out, but for future reference, IOS58 is the only unmodified IOS to have a USB2.0 driver.
