A kernel exploit that works on wii U up to 5.4.0 is released. You need to update the post !

the Kernel Exploit was released for 5.4.0, indeed.
But there's still no way to run it (webkit exploit isn't released yet for 5.4.0)

Yes, but still, that's great news ^^. There is a webkit exploit for firmware 4.1.0 up to 5.3.2 so the current exploit is usable on those firmwares while the one for 5.4.0 isn't released yet.

That's true. Can't wait for the official release of the 5.4 webkit exploit

Well I don't know why u need to wait, since you claimed that you got one tho , even if it's not publuc :

Finally I got the Exploit to work the Exploit on 5.4.0 (thank you!).
But now I want to know: how to use this kind of "cheats" like this in Wind Waker HD and Splatoon?
Is there a simple tutorial for it?

I know, I don't have to wait for it
But more users need to get access to it because we need more devs for homebrews
And yea, i'm not allowed to share it :\

I still don't understand why would they give it to you if you can't do anything useful with it yourself.

I can. I just had now clue about "cheating"

So what can you do ? how is your contribution ?

at first, I'll just try stuff.
Later (the next few days) I'll try to write some simple applications which can be used in Kernelmode (C, C++, C#).

Ok, good luck.

How (and why) are you using C# on the Wii U?

Forget the C#, wouldn't run on Wii U^^
Was still asleep when I wrote this.

^seems legit :>

My system is on a very old firmware. Is it still true that 5.1.0 is "even better", or should I go ahead and get a game in order to update to 5.3.2?

 

[TotalInsanity4]

Either are equally acceptable at this point, there's really no benefit to one over the other. You MIGHT be able to access online if you're on a firmware less than or equal to 5.1.0, though, if I understand correctly

 

[RichHomieSupreme]

Has anyone tried to or made any progress with being able to use the gamepad as a classic controller in vwii? Not necessarily the entire mode, but in homebrew so it can be used for emulator apps & such?

Would that even be possible?

So if I understand this correctly we can't launch back up Wii games using an external HD either correct?
So there's no way to run Wii games yet?

Also can I use the back up Nand feature to back up my Nand, Update to latest FW to play online and later
restore my old Nand backup? What are the risks of doing this? Could you brick the Wii U?

What? No, you can use backup loaders in vWii to launch off of USB

Oh I missed the USB loader bullet point, thanks
so would it be a good idea to back up my Sysnand and update the console so i can play online?
Or is it too risky? Do you need to Hardmod to restore the Sysnand?
