Hacking Problems...

[Deleted User]

Hello, I have performance problems on my console, I cannot fix that by formatting and so I am here to ask if it is possible that when I take out the copy of the nand, it can be edited so that it remains as I bought it or what can I do. Thanks

do you have a nand backup from before this happened? if not, you'd need your otp.bin, but good luck figuring out what the problem is. I think we only have one fixer, and that's cbhc remover. that's a relatively easy fix, because I think cbhc copies the system.xml, then renames it but leaves it on the nand, then modifies a copy of the file. as for other software fixes, I don't know. you'd have to know what file(s) are causing the problem.

I have no such copy
What happens is that the console is slow and stuck

no idea. the wii u doesn't have any recovery options unfortunately.

@godreborn Can the system be reinstalled? I don't mean to restore a copy

No reinstall, only restore from a brick that the NAND backup is for. If you are having problem with a usb device connected then it is your NAND.

But my console is not useless

What is your goal out of it? doing factory reset only wipe the system data, which you shouldn't do if you have CBHC, the NAND backup is for recovery purpose where you need to restore if you brick via hard mod.

In message number three I tell what happens in the console and hence the question you have answered me

There is no reinstall, only restore NAND backup if you did backup one, if your can't boot or freeze then you probably bricked/nessed it up.

I can only restore the copy from now not from before everything happened because I didn't do it. Hence, I opened the thread asking if you could edit a copy taken from now and leave it as new to later restore

If what causing it to get stuck is hardware related the NAND ain't going to do you much at this state, doing a NAND backup right now will only bring you back to this state if you restore it, and each console NAND is specific so you can't use other unit, you can't edit them either.

It is not related to the hardware, if you want I will explain you from scratch outside the thread because there is a mess

@Hayato213 , you can edit nand with otp.bin, but good luck figuring out which file is causing the problem.

wait, you may be right. I'm not sure if one of the nand tools allows for injection. I had to use as administrator with nand extractor to extract files, because it would crash otherwise.

works perfectly like that.

Is there a tutorial for it?

 

[godreborn]

a tutorial isn't really needed, just have otp.bin in the folder with slc.bin, then right click a file and hit extract or you can extract everything under file:

as you can see, I extracted the system.xml. you may have to run as administrator btw. and, I had to refresh the folder for the slc folder to appear (probably a hiccup with windows as that happens sometimes with any computer).

Thanks, do you have the link to the program?

It's on the forums. Try googling it with wii u nand tools gbatemp.
