Hacking Wii U Hacking & Homebrew Discussion

Looks like @naehrwert just confirmed the first leak (IOSU kernel), which is pretty cool. Here's a link to that and a bit of a better description.

When do YOU think the IOSU exploit will be released? Seriously need some comfort here

crystal ball anyone ??? LOL sorry this is kinda my first troll message.
Anyway, you'd first need to find a dev who has time/motivation to work on it, then ask him how much time he thinks it'll take him, then ask him when he thinks he'll release it ^^.

August 16th.

What is the max FW version? Note that if it's not known yet, one reply with a crystal ball and weird woman in the background is more than enough, thank you.

 

[uyjulian]

5.2.0

I mean, It'd be cool, but is it really the key to an exploit ?

5.2.0

No. 5.5.1

 

[lefthandsword]

No. 5.5.1

So ioctlvhax is officially obselete?

Yes.
Latest WiiU version is entirely pwned. There's even an OTP fail on that version.

Well, hopefully at some point, firmware downgrading becomes a thing. Oh well. What's that mean in terms of using the exploit in some meaningful way?

 

[punderino]

No. 5.5.1

Oh, hi Pingo. I love you.

What IOSU would imply:

• emuNAND or redNAND
• Software NAND backups
  
• General purpose USB access
• Signpatch
• Installation of unsigned WUP (= CIA for the WiiU) so even with invalid tickets as a byproduct of emu/redNAND
• More freedom for modders
• Other stuff that have no point being discussed here

 

[CJB100]

Thanks for the info, Pingo!

 

[uyjulian]

IOSU==full control (until Wii U is reset or lost power)

Also, we could have Nintendont for IOSU, have more speed, ram, cores, so we could fit entire games in RAM (thanks to 2GB, I think most GC ISOs are 1.37GB)

Mod for SSB4 (Characters Expansion like BrawlEx) and Mod for MK8 (Like CTGP-7 or CTGP Revolution) will be possible?

Cool stuff. The real question is: When?

They are already possible...
