    changing wii u gamepad region, is this safe/safest or up-to-date method?

    update: went ahead and went through process and had no issues. The flashing DOES take a few minutes each time (you do 2x flashes) so I recommend putting your gamepad on the dock so you don't experience an outtage, as the results would likely not be good if so. Also if you've never changed the...

    @SDIO I'm assuming derivative speaks the truth, so I guess I ask is there some way to do fastboot + overclock settings

    Tutorial Project How to set up ISFShax + Stroopwafel

    Question: How does having the fastboot fw (along with the payloader to autoboot aroma) on the SLC rather the sd card, interact with the minute.ini on the SD card? does it still check it, or ignore it? I'm wanting to maintain my overclocking. If it ignores it, would it make sense to also haxcopy...

Obviously...

    USBLoaderGX shows games but doesn't launch

    You said you dumped one and it works fine? So what are the other ones youre describing? games you had somewhere else and moved on to the SD? If they're .wbfs files and you moved them from somewhere else, they're probably just named/foldered wrong since you have one that works. Just tweak the...

    I have the isfshax installed from early march, so still using that minute and superblock. Would any reason I had need to update be obvious to me? I have a if it aint broke dont fix it approach to updates that I don't really understand, usually.

    Gaming Hardware What can I do to increase the lifespan of my wii?

    blow dust out, good ventilation, dont set it in hot direct sunlight (at least not while also playing), disc drive components lasts longer with system horizontal. Wii is not particularly bad on lifespan/durability naturally.

    Homebrew Problems

    in Minitool partition wizard, I aligned my partition to MB when creating it. I don't know if this matters, or how to tell on an already created partition, or what alignment even means, or if you have to do it while creating or can do it later. I know that aligning to MB is more legacy than...

    Homebrew Problems

    is the drive itself (or the partition) larger than 2 TB? I don't really know what else to do after that. There's an issue with drives larger than 2TB. I don't know if this is actually true for USB loader. Seems like it's more true with WiiVC installed to the WiiU. So I dunno. Can still try...

    Homebrew Problems

    games showing in the loader but none of them getting into game is odd, especially if you've checked your cIOS were the typical. is the loader using the default IOS 249? if the loader is set to use either port, update it to port 0 only and restart. some big games take about 40 seconds before...

    Homebrew [RELEASE] Aroma Environment for Wii U

    my move has been to make another user, and login to that user until im sure everything is working the folders/layout on your main profile shouldnt shift until you're ready to log back into it, so just make sure the USB setup is back the way it was before you do

    Homebrew Problems

    dont plug the power branch of the y cable into another hub or machine, only the other port(s) on the wii u That's exactly why no such cords are technically USB compliant. You can fry machinery that way. two host sources may fight each other, causing dangerous backfeeding, overvoltage, or ground...

    Struggling to get WiiFlow/USBLoaderGX to recognize USB sticks

    understood, then I guess just make sure those same settings (FAT32 with 32 kb clusters, MBR partition table, a single partition or first partition, primary not logical) are applied to your USB stick formatting, pop it in port 0, and hope for the best. :)

    Struggling to get WiiFlow/USBLoaderGX to recognize USB sticks

    the hardware and software doesn't like flash drives and only likes you to use port 0 on the back for wii data, and they aren't a good choice long term anyway. I can tell you which one I got to work but you're better just using a usb hdd formatted to FAT32 with 32 kb clusters, MBR partition...
