Someone actually surpassed my 17 dumps, 0.o what the hell
Props for the patience man!

May I ask, when does it freeze when you're booting redNAND? Does text show up above "Welcome to redNAND 0000"?

No, why? Freezes before I get in.

Yeah after 15 I gave up and we scrapped and rewrote smea's dumper entirely.

I know your team doesn't like being asked plenty of questions , but can you shed some light on how your dumper works at least , does it write the raw bytes in hardcoded values , does it compress the Nand size ? size of the SD card recommended ?

@punderino Why does formatting redNAND brick it?

Sorry for my bad english, i have a question, the WIIU nand, could be "generic", like x360, when you can inyect the unique data to a donate nand, and it will be valid? Maybe the best option in that, dump the OTP and another unique data, and make a patcher to patch a good wii u 5.5.1 nand..

My Rednand worked the first time i dumped my nand and i had no stability issues at all.

I personally have no clue. But it does brick emuNAND.

We weren't really going to comment on this yet as this stuff's still under development but we'll support creating shrunken mlc images. The minimum SD requirement will ultimately be around 16GB for all consoles, I think. If you're a 32gb owner and you want to keep your entire mlc (onboard storage) usable, you'll need 33GB of space on a 64+GB card. The rest of the SD card is all fat32-formatted, and usable for other cool stuff we have planned.
Additionally, our backup format for system storage (2xslc + mlc + otp and seeprom) dumps has some really smart compression to keep the backup filesizes waaay down.

So hopefully that helps answer at least part of that question! (I AM NOT PART OF SALT, ETC)

I'll second that! I guess we can just keep an eye on this thread and wait patiently. Definitely don't want any bricks...

fwiw I never had any issues with my dumper and I set up rednand on three different consoles. maybe some patches got lost in the public release
