Hacking Hykem's 5.5 iosu Exploit

[Flux0]

This talk of predictions makes me think of what Clubber Lang said, which fits well with the current state of this thread:

Pain.

I just hope that now that 5.5.1 is out, Hykem will give us the 5.5.0 exploit in the next day or so. Didn't he say that he'd release it once Nintendo released an update? I think I recall that somewhere awhile back ago

Actually, he said the opposite

Wow, are people this entitled? Programming is hard, let alone hacking (the latter, I've never attempted by the way).

Why can't some posters understand that people owe you nothing, and they are doing this work in their free time... I've seen this on the 3DS forums, recently too. Just wait for some time, or ask how Hykem is doing. That's all that you can do. EDIT: Damn, just realised how few posts I've made in 7 years, lol. Am I now the master of lurking?

He will probably check to see if the bug he has works with 5.5.1 before anything gets said or released

They are desperate to get their precious piracy.

at this point, it's much easier to get a 5.3.2 WiiU.

Wow, that's an over generalization!

The general bullshittery that is the mess in this thread probably drew you out of lurking :U That's what I'm really hating about this thread is that people think they're entitled to these kinds of things, and it really disappoints me to see this, because something that could be used for so much good is going to basically be going down the drain the moment that it's released.

And yes, I agree completely that programming is hard enough let alone hacking. I'm just playing around with a disassembly of a game and even that is no easy feat. These kinds of things take lots of time and people are just demanding that they have the exploit because fuck logic. Code as complex and low-level as this needs to be tested to the absolute max to ensure that people that even try fucking around with it don't end up with bricks in the end, because any faults in the code could be disastrous. Additionally, holding it back as long as possible ensures the most compatibility. I would rather wait for it to be blocked by accident down the road 5+ system menu revisions later than have that hole patched next week.

And I'll be honest. If it were me in Hykem's shoes, I wouldn't want to release this just because of what I've seen in this thread with people acting like they're deserving of this. All that will probably result of it is piracy. While that's nice and all, I'm more for expanding the abilities of a console beyond what it was designed to do initially. Unfortunately, I don't share the same perspective as a lot of other people here seem to have.

I think most want it for modding games and being able to run games on sd/USB just seem better than disc running.

 

[VinsCool]

No, it's a constatation. I simply wrote what it currently is.

 

[justhed0n]

Wheres the free games at.

Research is what I'm doing when I don't know what I'm doing.

The wii U can already do this from usb. People just want their warez

I used to have a respectable post count under a hundred, no custom avatar, life was good. But then someone told me if I spammed over a hundred I would get to change my user title thing.

U can't install disc games to hd

Remember everyones views on piracy do not belong in this thread.
Whining and bitching back in forth about who "deserves" the exploit is what this thread is for. So stay on topic!!

Please kindly take your piracy views over to this thread: https://gbatemp.net/threads/wii-u-piracy-discussion.382091/

 

[laudern]

The entitlement in this post is so strong, it feels like I can touch it

Entitlement - I do not think it means what you think it means.

What piracy? Derp. Wiiu games are down to $10-15 ISO's are not particularly available by scene standards and if someone wanted to just pirate games they would of spent $50 more and got a PS4.

Getting a premium file account, hard drive, SD together costs more than the handful of WiiU games that would be worth pirating.

I like a small console footprint with emu & Jukebox layout and hopefully some media homebrew, stop trolling.

It's not like we haven't all been waiting patiently for 5.5 exploit for a long time while it's been kept private, then told probably on Xmas. Damn this vibrant active community with interest in a update.

If Devs aren't interested in the community they can sit on IRC and keep their hacks to themselves.

is Hykem alive?
