Hi, I'm doing hack my wii u but then I got sd problems, but then I was told that the Wii U could be bricked by softmod, but I'm not sure. I have seen some take away his tray with bootmii, But if I install just install the Homebrew so I do not bootmii as other os, and then maybe I install some channels with the homebrew I saw on another post that someone had gotten bootmii as first (OS). So I wonder if the Wii U can be damaged by installing homebrew and bootmii, my wii u is the verision 5:30.

Can the Wii U damaged by being softmod?

If I softmod, should I install homebrew and bootmii?

Thanks if I get quick answers :)

if you take your time to read everything before softmodding it, there will be no problem!..dont mess with the iOS(s) and you wont really risk bricking it..
and dont forget that you cant use a 32gig sd card for softmodding it, but once the homebrew channel is install, you can use big SD cards if you want, wich can be great to stock all the games and movies :yay:
Good luck and take your time!..

As vwii and Wii u are like 2 seperate systems then updating the Wii u side should have no issues as long as the vwii doesn't get an update too

Don't spoonfeed him, he won't learn that way.



They screwed up an IOS which stopped the updating process, it can happen.

well i did say ''its not suppose to''. So, ''normaly'', you shouldnt have any problem updating after a softmod.
..i've softmodded vwii's atleast 50times and never had trouble updating the wiiu, and never heard anyone having this kind of trouble..
..dont scare the guy for nothing! :grog:

  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    I do but the optometrist I got my glasses at last year was expensive as fuck even WITH my insurance, so I'm gonna order on Zenni and see if my insurance will reimburse it. And if they won't, then, oh well, still will be cheaper anyway
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    $90 for the safety glasses on Zenni, vs my daily wear glasses were >$200 after insurance
  • K3Nv3 @ K3Nv3:
    Haven't been to the eye doc in like 3 years but was pretty surprised they cut the glass in office had the in like an hour ready
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    That's pretty sweet, I had to wait like a week or so for mine to be ready
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    Lookin at buying another pair of regular glasses too. And maybe prescription sunglasses
  • K3Nv3 @ K3Nv3:
    Yeah most just ship off to a lab could always call around to see if new ones have in office glass cutters
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    too much effort + im shy and social anxiety :( lmao
  • K3Nv3 @ K3Nv3:
    I just wear them when I drive cause I'd like to actually read signs
  • K3Nv3 @ K3Nv3:
    Think they said I'm far sighted or some bs
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    My eyes aren't that bad, I need mine for driving but ever since I got my latest pair I wear them all the time when I'm home now, I never used to before
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    I'm near sighted though
  • K3Nv3 @ K3Nv3:
    I feel like docs just say you're this and that for the insurance claims half the time
    +1
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    But even my computer monitors, that are like 3ft away when I'm leaning back in my chair, so much easier to see now with my glasses than without
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    Doc was cool though, he measured my old glasses and I wanted to try different contacts than I had had previously and he's like "hmmm I bet you're this strength and that strength" and damn dude was dead on the money
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    lmao that clip
  • K3Nv3 @ K3Nv3:
    Know a guy who did laser surgery for like 2g but argued you'd never need glasses again
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    laser eye surgery scares me
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    The thought of any kind of surgery shit being done on my eyes gives me unbelievable amounts of dread and anxiety, and with the potential risks or side effects that laser eye surgery has, I don't think my eyes are bad enough to warrant it. I can see without my glasses - not great, but not bad either.
  • K3Nv3 @ K3Nv3:
    Yeah I feel that if it gets to the point where all I see is blurry then I might consider if
  • Skelletonike @ Skelletonike:
    Just do it like in Minority Report. Won't feel a thing.
  • Skelletonike @ Skelletonike:
    Is it the full van? If so t's suspiciously cheap.
  • Skelletonike @ Skelletonike:
    Ah, the 2000€ is only the deposit
