Hacking Bricked WiiU?

[Carlos_DobleC]

I agree. I really want to know if this is user error or blatant CBHC corruption. I just truly hope the OP will be specific without fear of being ridiculed if it was indeed user error.

@Carlos_DobleC

I respect your posting. And I respect you as a user. Please don't take this as a dig. We all screw up.

We really need as much info as you can supply. Some of us are worried of potential non user induced bricks. I for one recommend CBHC as much as I can. It's been extremely reliable and solid for me. I want to eliminate as much user error as possible in your diagnosis.

It's important to the community that you be as honest as possible. Your answer could either help further bullet proofing CBHC or set us back with unessessary fear mongering (which is a daily battle on Gbatemp for people who understand CBHC). Your thread title alone could mislead many if it's an actual user error.

Guys, I'm sorry I took so long to respond, I had some personal problems, now I'll try to put everything I remember about the brick.

I remember installing Haxchi, then I did 2 tests, in which I mostly saw that the console version was set to 99.
After that, I rebooted the console and installed CBHC, and installed the DLC of: Mario Kart and Super Smash Bros.

I also installed the following channels (all from http://wiiubru.com/appstore/channels/):

WUP Installer GX2 0005000057555000
Loadiine GX2 Forwarder 0005000013374C44
Homebrew Launcher No titleid.

When I installed Haxchi, I had the hard drive plugged in, but when I installed CBHC, I unplugged it.
The 3 channels I installed, were installed on the hard drive along with the DLC.

If you need anything else, ask me, while I pray for the day when the otp backup can recover the Wii U

You can repair SLC with OTP backup. Just a heads up.

Isn't version 99 the cbhc? Or is that haxchi

I have no idea what the SLC is. I do not know much about hacking, I just follow guides, (GBAtemp's ones)

CBHC Uses HaxChi. It's just a way to cold boot HaxChi (CBHC = ColdBoot HaxChi)

SLC chip is where is your CBHC configuration, if you manage to fix it via hardmod then your Wii U will be alive again.

You need to read this thread:
https://gbatemp.net/threads/success...-nand-with-hardmod.457165/page-9#post-7206599

And you need these tools:

Take some time and read the entire threads! Some very useful and interesting stuff.

Can't agree more this has been tested and confirmed to work. I spoke to the author and he says as long as you have your OTP file you will be fine using his cbhc remover tool. Now you just need to find someone who can hard mod it to dump your nand for editing.

@FIX94

I installed CBHC after i launched Haxchi, should i be concerning about it? Maybe uninstall and install via browser exploit again?


I ran haxchi first because it runs the homebrew launcher, so i can install CBHC. forgot i could use the browser exploit at that time.

You did it right. No worries

 

[mures]

1. Where was the game used for CBHC installed to? (NAND or USB)
2. Did you have to run it with sighax?
3. Could you give a list of EVERYTHING you did to your Wii U before this happened?
4. Do you have a NAND backup? (Did you have redNAND installed or not?)
5. Could you return your Wii U to the store if you can't get a hardmod (I know this sounds cheap but, the store will send it to Nintendo for repairs before resale)

NOTE: Yes; your Wii U is bricked. This is why I don't mess with Haxchi or CBHC

Please use a translator because I had trouble understanding that post. First of all, have you installed Haxchi on your Wii U? Or something that is not official?

It appears he botched a CBHC installation by not reading the fucking directions just as it seems 90% of this forum cannot do. (Myself included because I was the OP of the first "HELP I BRICKED MAH 3DS WITH B9S!!!!!!" post about 30 minutes after B9S was released)

 

[godreborn]

to be fair, a legit install can fail if a fake ticket is in the .tik file first or possibly at all. however, the game should fail installation. this is assuming the game was bought while on cfw so sig patches existed to allow installation but nothing beyond that if going by a coldboot. I think this may be the cause of a lot of cbhc bricks. always, check the game on normal firmware first.

 

[bennyman123abc]

always, check the game on normal firmware first.

Again, that's in the directions but, people these days don't know how to fucking read!

 

[godreborn]

I'm more tolerant than most people as I understand mistakes can happen. I'm using cbhc myself which I love despite not needing it. I bought almost all my wii u games digitally aside from Nintendo Land which isn't on the eshop anymore. when I had money, I bought eshop games (have 76 games), but I've installed around 250-265 games total including what I bought. I bought the popular titles which stopped with paper mario. I wish I had gone retail though, 'cause I could really use the money, and I only play like 5-10 games in my collection. :-/ I love mario and dkc the most!
