Hacking HELP! Wii U bricked after installing Coldboot Haxchi

[Kafluke]

Order the voltage regulator as well while your at it.

I actually ordered that for my teensy 2.0 I just didn't get the ++ signal booster addition

Either wait until the boot0 recovery thing is figured out, or give it to me.

boot0 recovery? can you inform me on what that is?

Something that should be able to recover any soft brick, but it is nowhere near figured out.

gotcha. Somewhat similar to how we recover bricks with 3ds. (I said somewhat as they probably do it differently for obvious reasons)

Should just require a SD card.

dismanteling the system is probably the hardest part. eyekey's tools can fix already cbhc systemes or ones about to be. burn the fixed image. I've never had this problem, so it's easy for me to say. u don't have much to lose though.

All true. The most important part is getting the dump before you brick. I was in the process of taking multiple backups when I forgot to remove CBHC in between a format. I'm not worried though. I was doing the prep work for a purposeful brick. I have 2 times all nand backups. Before CBHC. After CBHC and redNAND backup. I was going for three before I bricked and accidentally bricked just like a regular user. Now we wait for my teensy

Well, if you dump anything from SysConfigTool, another empty folder named 'recovery' will appear in SDCard://Nintendo Wii U/

Not to hijack Op's thread, but none of this brick-stuff never happens with Mocha CFW, right? At least from what I've read, it seems to be the safer method of obtaining cfw on the Wii U.

if you run cbhc to boot mocha is the same exact thing, technicaly worse since mocha does protect the ds ttile like cbhc default cfw does, if you still use browser exploit to launch mocha then you are fine.

I personally made a NAND dump after the fact, but eyekeys tools will or should fix that, so making them before or after shouldn't matter. I think as long as u have the otp, u should be good. I personally use my system every day, and I've not made a cbhc mistake, but I understand that that can happen. the fake tickets - I learned how to do that from one of the fellow temp members. it wasn't towards cbhc though. it was just to remove a fake ticket from a game I had bought. I didn't want a fake ticket for a legit game. lol

It's a semi-brick tho, so could I reverse it because I have an otp.bin and the gamepad works fully

Don't listen to what others say. OTP is enough to fix this brick with hardmod

I'm going to hijack this thread because I'm curious,
1. Is there a way to dump wiiU nand and restore it later?
2. Is there anyone working on something similar to the Wii's priiloader or boot0?

1. Yes-ish. (dump yes. Restore=hardmod as I know)
2.Was. exploit is known, not implemented as far as I know.

Not really. There's been some speculation but nothing has been actually done.
