Hacking Incoming Wii U update 5.5.2

[zoogie]

You are wrong 1.4.4 was in July 30th 2009
1.4.5 was December 13 2012 so not 9 months

DO NOT trust wikipedia. They show firm 1.4 and skip all the decimal updates to 1.4.5.

This also reminds me to bring up the point that I FUCKING HATE when people round off zeros in firmware versions -- these are descriptive numbers, NOT values for god's sakes. not yelling at you Marko, just a little rant.

Update hasn't been analyzed yet.

EDIT: Updated titles for USA are version, EULA, browser (!), and AOC overlay.

Anyone know if SDCafiine still works?

That shows the exact opposite of what you're saying. Internet browser was updated, which means some entrypoints may not work anymore.

Yeah but if you somehow updated with CBHC installed you won't brick and everything will still work as usual, the browser exploit should be fairly easy to get working again or another entrypoint compared to finding another IOSU or kernel exploit.

Can't update the Wii U if I "accidentally" unplug it


NOJ douchebags. They show no caring for the Wii U and then they pull this? Laaaame.

 

[Xyphoseos]

The update is already downloadable ?

btw, holy shit

Might as well update. I already have haxchi and still play online on wii u and post to miiverse from time to time.

browser exploit is gone, everything else works.

Update from @SciresM

They didn't update IOSU....Looks to me like this update is just a "let's fix the entrypoint" meme update.

so I'm fucked when I finally do get to buying a wii u

 

[RevX1]

So CBHC should be safe to update, ya?

 

[the_randomizer]

So just to fix the web browser exploit? And nothing else?

*Gasps in horror*

 

[duffmmann]

So if we have CBHC, we're OK to update?

 

[LongLiveTheKing]

Dang i'm gonna need to hack my WiiU for real now. I only use the browser and a sig patching thing.

 

[the_randomizer]

So if we have CBHC, we're OK to update?

Ask @FIX94 for confirmation, he should have info about that, but his last post implies this is the case.

 

[VinsCool]

Welp.

That's seriously sad to see.
I almost wished to see stuff patched.

But that's also a good news. If this is the EoL update, that means that WiiUs are officially fated to have permanent hacks.

 

[duffmmann]

Oh Nintendo, what are you doing? Pushing an update that half-assedly stops only an entry point into hacking on a (I'm legitimately sorry to say this) dead console? Seriously, what is the point?
