Okay so to go over it since you said you do not wish to use anything that was left on it.

So if you've already uninstalled cbhc from homebrew launcher, you can go ahead and uninstall cbhc, haxchi, wup installer and the homebrew launcher from data management.

As well as delete the other users. But like I asked I want to confirm you can perform every regular task from your own created account before hand.

Because there's no such thing as cfw that prevents online access, so not being able to update is a red flag.

I'm suggesting because its important. Try to update Xenoblade, and play Monster Hunter online from your own account.

If you can then you no longer need anything from the previous owner. If you cannot you are going to want to keep some of what is on the SD or USB with the homebrew (not the channels or users) to make it easier on you if fixes need to be made.

Ok i try xenoblade and when i get my monster hunter 3 then i try to play online. If it's work then i delete everything. If not then i am gonna write here again.

Ok i checked and i can't update xenoblade. Not from store and the game doesn't update itself either. I don't have monster hunter yet, it will arrive next week to me but if the xenoblade doesn't update itself then i quess monster hunter too doesn't update itself. I don't know if i get the game i'm gonna check it. But still i can't update Xeno with the reqular mode. And in the data management i found and update file which is 80 mb i think that's the first update and a 10 gigabyte add on pack which i downloaded from the store.

Heya,

I'm currently running coldboot HaxChi on 5.5.1, servers blocked using DNS. What proper steps do I need to take to safely update to 5.5.3? Will all of my HDD games installed using the WUP Installer Method still work?

I'm doing some rearranging and the WiiU is being packed up for a bit. I'd hate to pull it out of the box, forget what's been done to it, and f*** it up somehow. I'd like it to be on the latest firmware before storing it.

T.I.A.!

You just need to launch cbhc through the homebrew launcher press b to uninstall, then uninstall the cbhc icon from data management. Unblock the DNS and update and redownload your VC DS title for haxchi, download the latest haxchi and cbhc and put them on your sd, use the browser exploit to enter hombrew launcher, install haxchi then install cbhc.

Also just recently found out if you copy the DS VC to your HDD or a USB before installing haxchi, then unplug the device it will allow you to continue using the game while it's plugged in and hide the cbhc icon.

Also yes everything you installed with WUP will still work.

Did you purchase Xenoblade from your account or have it physically? And have you unblocked your DNS settings prior to attempting to update?

You should be able to update through WUP, but unfortunately I have no experience with doing so, so I cannot provide advice there.

Hello, howdy

I did read everything on how to install CBHC in the most safest way possible. Readed everything that could cause the console to brick as well. I bought the VC tittle and already have a Haxchi installed and working properly even before knowing about CBHC.

The thing is: My console is on the version 5.5.3U and I'm not sure if I can install it or not.
Other thing I'm not sure about is opening the homebrew after installing CBHC. I heard that once CBHC is installed, it replaces Haxchi, so I'm not sure how it works.

I tried to find someone in the same case as me but I couldn't find it anywhere, and since this post is from 3 years ago I'm curious if it works or not with my Wii U Version.

afaik, cbh can be installed on that firmware. however, I think you have to go through the browser which isn't very reliable on that firmware, but you really only need it to work once.

edit: if you have haxchi already installed, there's nothing to installing cbhc.

100% user error ;)

You can install it safely.

I'm not sure how it works.
CBHC (Coldboot Haxchi) changes your default system title from the system menu to your DS virtual console game. This causes your device to launch CFW automatically at boot.

If you have already haxchi...follow this here.

Thank you for your quickly response. I'll triple check myself and then going to install CHBC while praying that everything goes ok.

The most important thing is simply (if you have cbhc installed) that you do not delete the DS VC game because otherwise brick and a Nand Backup atm can only be restored via Hardmod. You've already seen the list of bricked Wii U's. And you can see quite clearly that the bricks are 100% user errors, as I already mentioned.

I'm on 5.5.3, and I've uninstalled and reinstalled CBHC thrice now with nay an issue.

Just go through the browser exploit for Haxchi as per normal then run CB from HBL, as mentioned don't uninstall it from system settings menu.

If you make copy the DS title to a USB/Ext HDD before installing regular Haxchi then unplug that while installing it'll even hide CBHC and give you your game back while the USB/Ext HDD is plugged in.

Also don't move CBHC off the system NAND.

1.) You don't, you remove USB with the clean copy DS before you even install regular Haxchi.

2.) You can't install CBHC to USB titles, they do not even appear in the installer.

Does anyone have any idea if someone is working on a way to eventually install haxchi and in turn cbhc using a system title like health and safety information to get ready for when the time comes that the wii u shop closes down and people will be unable to buy a nintendo ds game to use with haxchi?

Hopefully... but we don't know... we also need a way to dump and restore NAND backups.
