Hacking I can install IOS in vWii! But...

[Rapper_skull]

So does this IOS 236 have all the permissions? Can it do all the things a patched IOS is expected to do?

 

[damysteryman]

It has:
Signature check "trucha" patch
ES_Identify patch
NAND Permissions patch
Title version check patch
Systitle Anti-Install Killer patch (the one I added)

Other cIOS usually have more patches than this, but IOS236 has never had those extra patches that other cIOS have.

 

[Rapper_skull]

The next step is to patch IOS 56 or 57 from vWii with d2x patches.

 

[damysteryman]

Yeah.
I tried looking at d2x source to see if I could port it myself, but I think that is a little out of my league
But I have sent davebaol a PM talking about this though, hopefully he will be able to reply to me sometime.

 

[Rapper_skull]

Probably I'm saying stupid things, but isn't it possible to use this: http://code.google.com/p/d2x-cios/downloads/detail?name=d2x-v9-beta(r49)FIX.zip to patch the vWii IOSs? This only applies the patch to the IOS, it is not the cIOS itself. Am I saying stupid things?

 

[damysteryman]

Well, the cIOS source has to be modified so that it will patch the new base IOS correctly, and that is what I currently do not know how to do properly.

I checked the source over again, but I can't find anything wrong... maybe you could have a look? Link to binary+source: http://downloads.nanolx.org/YAWMM_DE-rev5a.tar.bz2

Hmm... or: what libogc did you use to compile? Newest or some older?

 

[hellboy2010]

working perfect for me.

Spoiler

Does this mean we can use our USB HDD on the Wii U in vWii mode and load our games from CFG or WiiFlow etc. just like on the old Wii? If so, I might think twice about getting a Wii U after all!

 

[boomario]

Man, you just did a huge progress in vWii hacking/modding in WiiU, and possibly in WiiU itself if someone manage to take control of WiiU in switch of vWii -> WiiU
congratulations

Ok, has anybody ever gotten bluedump to dump an IOS wad? It doesn't seem to actually work, even on a normal wii.

 

[Stalkid64X]

All he's done there is install the channels which as discussed earlier isn't hard to do.

You probably didn't read all the topic.

Maybe he meant the spoiler-pic and the follow-up question whether usb-loading works.

There's a mod of BlueDump (in german) that perfectly works, now with IOS 236 it should do aswell on vWii.

 

[Excelsiior]

As on request: here's a re-translation of "BlueDump alpha3 german mod" into englisch + iospatch.c stuff from damysteryman

http://downloads.nanolx.org/bluedump-alpha04.tar.bz2

if ios patching fails, it will use IOS 236 instead

 

[Stalkid64X]

Yup. As was discussed earlier, channel installing should not generally be an issue. It's not a "major" thing at all to simply get them installed. Working as originally intended though is another matter... which those won't.

 

[djricekcn]

so...what exactly does this do?

not sure what this suppose to mean: "So, long story short, these patches allow Wii U vWii IOS to install system titles once again, no more error -1017." what's a system titles

 

[BeAtSs]

Has anyone tried dumping a wiiU game with cleanrip on the vWii? Would it theoretically be possible ?

 

[Skeet1983]

I mainly want to use cheats in my wii games and wii channels. Can I install IOS236 to allow this? How would I go about doing it? I downloaded the IOS236 from 1st page in this thread and also just downloaded the german to english translated BlueDump Alpha 3(4). Please help if possible and thanks

Is there a way dump iOS from the vWii? What tools or app do you use to dump the iOS from vWii?
