Hacking Load Homebrew Channel From Dash

[nastys]

What are the steps to do this?

You will need a redNAND backup to dump the SEEPROM since you don't have any entry points. Did you ever use redNAND?

I did not use redNand...

All I ever used was Haxchi and loadiine.ovh

Use redNAND fw.img since you set it to A=fw.img.
Oh right, it also requires otp. I think otp is created also.

Can you provide instructions on how to do this? Everything I see shows to use loadiine.ovh - like the link below

btw, if he has an Haxchi version with wupserver he can just use it to install hbl channel/edit haxchi config

How do I check if my Haxchi version has wupserver?

get your wiiu's local ip and wupclient then try to connect to your wii u using wupclient

just checked haxchi's wupserver and it's the /dev/iosuhax one... so you'll need to compile a sysnand fw.img with wupserver and then use it to install hbl/fix your haxchi config

I know how to get my Wii U IP - how do I compile a sysnand fw.img with wupserver?

I want the wupserver only - not the rednand and sys patches, correct?

yup

How do I grab "my 2 keys"? It shows to do such with HBL - but I can't get to HBL

Did you try WUP server after running HaxChi?

If you manages to build hexFW like Kafluke suggested, you should be able to dump your OTP, SEEPROM, etc...
It also includes a wupserver.

I have tried to build it myself but I got this error:

make[1]: Entering directory '/home/nastys/Documents/hexFW/firmware'
Traceback (most recent call last):

Anyway, you could just google those keys and keep building IOSUHAX instead.

That's the same error I got

Just Google to get the keys

When I use the command "make" I get the below error

'make' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file

Did you reboot after installing devkitPro?

 

[Kafluke]

"Make" won't do anything until you install a handful of apps including python and pyCrypto and others

I installed python, pykrypto, devkitarms, armips and have downloaded iosuhax, and rebooted, but typing "make" still gives the same error

from my googling it looks like there is an environmental variable that got messed up somehow

Then you'll have to fix it manually.
What is your PATH variable currently?
Open the Command Prompt and type:

echo %path%

then press ENTER.

It should include the folder that contains make.
