Hacking Wii U Hacking & Homebrew Discussion

[fiveighteen]

I tried:
the latest osdriver exploit on GitHub
+
this codehandler: http://gbatemp.net/threads/wii-u-hacking-homebrew-discussion.367489/page-480#post-5635450
+
this version of Gecko dotNET: http://gbatemp.net/threads/wii-u-hacking-homebrew-discussion.367489/page-474#post-5632373

and when I click "Read FSA", Mario Kart 8 freezes after the demo video and Gecko dotNET disconnects.
What's wrong?

1.Mario kart 8 has a Menu.
2.Connect to your Wii U.
3.Select read FSA.

It worked
So before starting the process, we need to open the menu or something to stop the demo video

@MrRean Which files do you need?

Here are the html files I used:

I got the kexploit to run, as well as the codehandler that you uploaded. I then launched MK8, put it on the main menu, and then loaded Gecko dotNET on my PC. When I click "Connect to Gecko" with the WiiU's IP address in the box, I get an unhandled exception, so I click Continue. I go to FSA tab and click Read FSA. In the Status bar at the bottom, it goes through Connection Attempt 1, 2, 3.. Then pops up and says Connection to the TCP Gecko has failed!

Am I supposed to be on a certain screen, or doing something in a different order?

Hey! Bud, so... I want a Wii U... for like 170 or cheaper with 5.4.0 for OSDRIVER, where could I find that?

Probably a pawn shop. I paid $220 for mine after work discounts and whatnot on the day that the Gamepad vWii update dropped.

Before reading the FSA, open the menu and press (-) to open the Play Stats.

Ah, it just took a while to load it up while sitting at "Not Responding." Good to go now! Thanks.

EDIT: You can only extract, not insert files?

Router blacklisting works 100 % though. I have been messing around with it for a while and even played online but still on 5.4.0. If you're aware it's easy to get away with never auto-updating

Unfortunately, I don't know what the ip backdoor is for my router, it came with my ISP (Comcast), it's a Motorola brand (I believe), modem/router combo and dual band.

Google the name and model number (located on the back or bottom), or at cmd do ipconfig /all and look for Default Gateway.

Just had the strangest thing happen a while ago. I was booting into the osdriver fine with the wiiu browser but for the love of it I could not boot into the pygecko or cafiine drivers so I went back to the laptop eventually after a good few try's on the wiiu and then realized that the XAMPP client was not running on my pc but then I thought well how did the osdriver boot itself???, mystery!

Check the URL of the bookmark...

What do you mean? if you meant did I click on the bookmark, yes I did but the rest would not boot with the bookmark.

I mean, what address does that bookmark point to? Your PC or something else?
I think you probably used an exploit hosted on a website instead of your PC

So, its probably 10.0.0.1 since that is the default internal address for comcast. Easiest way to check is to run ipconfig /all from you cmd shell. The default gateway is the router's internal interfaces ip address. It does allow for blacklisting URL's and can block url's by specific IP address. My son's Wii U is always connected and my personal one is blocking those urls.

Logged on to the router, uh, where would the blacklisting actually be set up? All I see is DMZ, but nothing about blacklists. Parental controls then "Blocked Sites"?

My PC, I'm using xampp in htdocs folder. Got to be <ip>/payload532.html

Parental Control -> Managed Sites

Click Managed Sites to Enabled

On blocked sites -> Click Add+

Add each address to block

Okay, enabled it, why does it default all the "trusted computers" on our network to "no"?

Perhaps it was still in the cache. Try doing exactly what you did before and see if it works.

Blocks all computers from going to those sites. You have to whitelist specific hosts to go the update site. So you can whitelist your laptop/desktop and still download from NUS and your Wii U still can't access the site.

Typically this is used to block your kids devices from access certain sites that you don't want them able to access like 4chan or something else. Whitelisting is the safer way to add allow.

Okay, so as far as normal functionality goes, I don't need to change anything as I don't plan on going to those sites or using NUS. That and the other computers won't be affected at all. Good to know.

On another note, I don't mean to encourage piracy, but anybody that can extract the DLC from the game with TCP, can you please send a dump to me? I have the DLC myself so you can't smack me for piracy.

I made an account just to reply to this...what is even life....
I tried to extract the files from TCPGecko, but I don't see the DLC files when I click Read FSA in TCPGecko. I see the update files though.... am I doing something wrong, or is TCPGecko not programmed to read DLC files? (sorry for my noobishness, I'm new)

 

[NWPlayer123]

No, you have to access it with a separate library
