Hacking vWii cios questions

[worm28]

I have a couple questions about cios. So if i pack d2x cios249 to wad and fakesign it then install it will my wii u refuse to update, I know if you install a fakesigned ios under 200 the wii u will give an error code and refuse to update. Second question if i pack d2x cios 249 to wad but dont fakesign it (vanilla wad) can i install it on any vwii or just the vwii i dumped it from?

As for question 1, I heard somewhere that having any cIOS installed at all messes up updating one way or another.

This is false, it was a very specific vIOS being patched that bricked the update feature. The exact one I can't remember right now, though... It was a very low one, though

Correct, IOS slots above 200 are secure to play with.

It will work on whatever vWii, just make sure the base used (56, 57) is dumped from an actual Wii U console not Wii. I think you need fakesign in order to install otherwise wad managers will throw you a ticket error.
