    Hardware Help me unbrick my Wii U!

    Regarding Pretendo: No response on Discord, but doing some research, this post suggests rebuilding the SLC. Is this something that is safe for me to do/will work, with redNAND? I'm also at a loss on this: I want to install games, but NUSspli, when downloading them, frequently errors out and...

    Oh sorry, yep; already got Aroma going.

    Ah, I edited the post right around when you replied, so I didn't even see your reply. But needless to say: that issue is solved!! I guess I should reach out to the Pretendo Discord maybe? Unless you have any advice on the Pretendo issue.

    Hardware Help me unbrick my Wii U!

    Alright, still dealing with a few issues that aren't insurmountable, mostly trying things and not getting much places. Still struggling with the save date. I did a back-up of it, but I'm not sure how to get it onto the new profile. Do I need to have the games on the Wii U to copy their saves...

    Hardware Help me unbrick my Wii U!

    Alright, this was a moment of "I was overthinking it", thinking I needed to *not* load into the WiiU menu, not realizing it would automatically supercede. I've gotten into SaveMii, but it's only listing 5 games, not all of them; and all of these 5 are saves I don't particularly care about. How...

    Alright, yeah, but I'm still lost, I've never booted into Aroma or Tiramisu. How do I go from what I'm currently at, to booting into Tiramisu. All the guides say to use a different exploit, like the browser exploit, to get in. What should I be doing, to launch into/install Tiramisu.

    Alright, I'm still lost. Went back to that guide, put the Tiramisu files on there and I put 5payldr.ipx in ios_plugins; then what. I assume I undo the autobooting, and then in minute... do I choose a different option? EDIT: Also might as well ask while I'm here: Should I download the latest...

    Alright, just in case: Do I want to follow the process of using the Browser exploit, or do I want to do something else since I already have access to minute?

    Okay, sounds good, I'll give tiramisu a shot then. And for tiramisu/Aroma/anything else Homebrew that uses the SD card, the existing one that's already in there, I can continue to use, yeah?

    If they're lost they're lost, but I'd still like to give it a try. But installing Aroma, and then trying to use SaveMii, you don't think is worth a shot?

    Oh, no. That error only appears if I set [sys_mount] mlc=true If I set it to false then I can load up into the Wii U menu just fine. I had to create a new profile and all that.

    I don't fully understand... is the menu I'm booting into currently not the Wii U menu? Either way, I'll give tiramisu a try. But am I never going to be able to use Aroma? Also, I can put this on the same SD card I'm currently using?

    Loading up the hacks guide; I should use Tiramisu and not Aroma? EDIT: I'm getting a 404 searching for the Tiramisu guide...

    It booted!!! I'm now at the "hope I can recover my saves" part of the process, and tried this, but it just gave me an error that the USB device is unusuable. Sounds like I should start setting up homebrew and then try to install SaveMii? This is relatively new to me but seems like it should be...

    So then, here's the next update! That worked, it is flashing blue. The guide says it shouldn't take longer than 30 minutes, and it's been about 3 hours and it's still just flashing blue. When should I start being worried? What should I try? Leaving it as is for now until I hear any advice...
