Either number 1 happens or no, Hykem promised to release all what he got for number 2 when ready, and he promised to do so before February :).

--------------------- MERGED ---------------------------


That info has been there even before Hykem mentions the release of his IOSU exploit, it was the conditions the devs (mainly MN1) put to release their private exploits.
But MN is not related to Plutoo, and he was talking about Plutoo's exploit (which is IOSU where MN was an kexploit if I remember correctly)
 
I think any post with infos about iosu should not be accepted if don't have the source linked in the post. Everytime we got misunderstanding info because people post old news over new info.

I cant wait to get the exploit, but I think it is better that it is only released when it could not be patched, so that we would still be able to play future games, or if the other exploits are as functional as the one released

That's not a problem due to this one word: emuNAND.
Ore in multible words: emuNAND allows us to upgrade to the latest firmware but instead of updating the Wii U's firmware you upgrade the firmware on a SD or maybe even a USB and then boot the firmware from that. So your sysNAND stays outdated (5.5) and you update your emuNAND (5.6 or 6.0 and later).
 
we dont have his exploit yet so its not a release he may come up with problems or other stuff and say he needs more time.when its released then its real untill then its all talk.
 
all I want is actually a new working WebKit exploit so we can utilize the Kernel Exploit (OSDriver) for 5.4 users :glare: then we can wait patiently for IOSU/Permanent exploit

"He hasn't released the exploit yet, therefore he never will even though he made no promise that it would be released by now"
 
All that information is trivial and just spreads drama
It's not trivial: it takes several hours of digging into a 500 pages thread to find the information, for anyone who does not follow the subject on a daily basis. I know, because that's exactly what I had to do to write the article
It does not spread drama: If you read the article, you've seen I've been extremely careful to not include anything that has confirmed to be inaccurate or irrelevant to the current status.

Just sayin'
 
Wasn't Hykem the one that gave naehrwert a hint about what bug he uses? So it's pretty clear that he uses the same bug as hykem, if he hasn't found another one already.

BTW, is anyone into WiiU coding? I have some code that is crashing with a dark blue screen, but I don't know why.
Code:
            unsigned int fp_handle;
            OSDynLoad_Acquire("nn_fp.rpl", &fp_handle);
            __os_snprintf(flags.output, 1000, "\ngot rpl");
            const char* name;
            void(*GetMyScreenName)();
            OSDynLoad_FindExport(fp_handle, 2, "nn::fp::GetMyScreenName", &GetMyScreenName);
            __os_snprintf(flags.output, 1000, "\ngot export");
            __os_snprintf(flags.output, 1000, "\nrunning function");
            GetMyScreenName(&name);
            __os_snprintf(flags.output, 1000, name);
__os_snprintf works, I tried that without the other functions. It's probably really trivial, but I'm apparently too stupid to find the bug for myself. Also, it's the first time I use real C, so I'm not really into that stuff :/

You can't the c++ functions names, you have to use the right (internal?) functionname. Use ida for this.
e.g. for nn::ac::GetPersistentIdEx() I had to use GetPersistentIdEx__Q2_2nn3actFUc

Thought is was going to be a Christmas present? Anyway, I'm calling bullshit and moving on with my life at this point.

this thread was already made 1/7/2015? wow where's that crystal ball they have around here.
@SonyUSA IS IT OUT?! (( No. )) -- Updated 1/7/2015 12:15AM MT (UTC -7)

That's the US date format, month/day/year. According to our date format it would be July 1st yes ;-)

edit: ah, you're probably talking about the 2015 part I guess... must be a typo ;-)

It wasn't supposed to be a Christmas present, that was only Hykem's original intent. Because of recent developments + Hykem exploring a possible bug that can run exploits on boot (or something like that), the plan is to have it out by the end of this month.
