Hacking Hykem's 5.5 iosu Exploit

[Bkool999]

Well. Really i think this discussions dont belong to here. We are just waiting for the exploit. Ofcourse hykem dont wanna make a loader or something.

When the exploit comes out. Another dev or something will work on that i think.

But hey....its just a theory..

A homebrew theory :v

Thanks for reading.

Guys, the obfuscation is only to make more difficult to N patch the bug/exploit, just look the kernel exploit in the 3ds N didn't patch correctly in 9.3, it end in a new kernel hack for the new fw..
I think Hykem is creating drama, he are laughing with yours discussion Remember he called himself a clown And just think, we have a backup loader without the need of an iosu hack.. The piracy now is still inevitable...

They need to load-balance all the incoming traffic. If they tie it all to one IP address and then that route/machine/IP block changes/goes down/whatever, then Nintendo is seriously screwed because all the consoles are hard-locked to that IP and can no longer receive an update to the new address or access eshop/updates/etc.

Sure but it's not like they don't know about tubehax. They could only use the static IP for those systems setup to use it. Or use a static IP if all other avenues fail. It's not impossible.

But it's also unsafe, what if they lose that IP (IP's are not forever the same and someone else might get that IP assigned) they would still have consoles phoning home to that IP. And you can still block IP's in your router so to them there is no benefit in hard-coding an IP. Plus it's not there in the latest FW now so WHO THE FUCK CARES (not personal just in general).

It's impossible to stop piracy. Case solved.

If you want to discuss piracy, discuss it in the piracy discussion thread.

 

[raulpica]

A few rules for this thread:

1) Everyone is waiting for this just as everyone knows that it's late. There's no need to talk of that on every single page.
2) Off-topic is strictly not allowed. A joke here and there is cool, but just put a like on it and don't start replying to the poster to congratulate him/her for his/her wits or the thread will derail. MASSIVELY.
3) No "piracy is right/wrong!!1111" discussion allowed in here. There's a thread for it and you're all free to get your knickers in a twist in there.

Thanks for reading and keep on rocking, GBAtemp!

I know Hykem said something about additional items he planned to pack with his exploit, as he wanted to (paraphrasing) make up for the delay. Do any of the IRC regulars / devs have any insight into these bonuses? Are there going to be some tools or something that could make porting existing stuff easier, or something to that extent? For the record, I'm not implying Loadiine, I mean other homebrew apps / games, or some manner of launching something made in Unity (because literally everyone under the sun uses it).

IF i recall he said he would release a working 5.5.0 kernel while he finished up on the iosu exploit

Any chance you can find the source for this because that would be amazing.

 

[Merzeal]

Ah, that doesn't really affect me, as I'm on 5.5.1, but good for everyone on 5.5, though I imagine it would be slightly superfluous.

I've been watching and waiting just like every1 else. I was just really glad to see some1 working on the 5.5 exploit and really grateful for all of Hykem's hard work. I usually hardly ever post on most forums from fear of getting banned for silly stuff like asking a question that's already been answered in a obscure thread that's almost impossible to read. Or I might imply a subject that is generally banned from most forums. I've released a few things Ive worked on over the years here and there and some things that might seem really simple do take time to get worked out. So I would just like to say thanks again to Hykem.

New to the ISOU scene... saw some debates over anti-piracy so I get some questions for the "seniors" here:
1) Is the emuNand scene dead?
2) Is the USBloader scene dead? (not sure if USB Loader is directly related to emuNand)

To put it VERY simply; "no, because both scenes require IOSU first" - So it is not that those two can come first IOSU needs to happen so people can even develop USB loaders or emuNAND, but it is possible when IOSU happens.

The iosu supports 5.5.1 the latest firmware. the entrypoint/way to launch might be different depending on your firmware. since you are on 5.5.1E, you cannot update further. 5.5.1U is for USA consoles.

E = Europe
U = USA (America in general)
J = Japan

There is a Userland Exploit on 5.5.1, Hykem already said that his IOSU Exploit will work with 5.5.1 with the Userland Exploit provided by yellows8 that it's the same one that we are going to use on 5.5.0 because it's more stable than the previous one that Hykem had.

Sell your Wii U bla bla

And yes, you are ok in 5.5.1

Just like you saw it dropping on both the 11th and 16th of January?

It's better to just stay quiet for a while until the exploit ACTUALLY gets released, speculating when the exploit gets released gets us NOWHERE.

 

[ihateu3]

If I was in any of these devs shoes, here on the forums I would claim that all Nintendo updates blocked the exploit, so Nintendo would quit looking and keep making future exploitable updates.

a bit OT
but i think hykem wants to stop piracy against " overpriced money making chinese hardmodders " wiikey u and so on
and this will be great

If that's his reason I'm totally OK with it, fuck "chinese hardmodders" they might even tinker around with the system so much we might get random "ViiUX CFW 2.1"
