I've seen you mention this a few times but I honestly find it hard to believe.
Any proof?
Which link do you use?
I want to believe you, but devs said it was patched by 5.5.0.
actually i agree with you, a lot of people said it is supported,but they could be trolls, and their was a video earlier, so.... i recommend to stay on 5.5.0 if u r, but if u r on 5.5.1 just give it a shot

Someone who wants to prove that the entrypoint still works on 5.5.1 needs to make a video and show not only their system version in System Settings before running the exploit, but ALSO show their BROWSER VERSION in Browser Settings - that wouldn't be spoofed and would prove their console version. Until someone can do that, there's no definitive proof to this (previous video didn't show browser version, so could be spoofed as TVii was removed on 5.4.0 in EU, not 5.5.0 like elsewhere).

The userland exploit does work for 5.5.1 the private kernel exploit was patched.
You've got it backwards. The userland exploit was patched on 5.5.1, that's the whole reason Yellow8 released his userland exploit... All the current 5.4 programs you see being tested right now are using the 5.3.2 kernel exploit and Yellow8's 5.4/5.5 Userland exploit that got patched in 5.5.1. 5.3.2 Kernel exploit was patched in 5.5.0, that's why most of that 5.4 stuff doesn't work on 5.5 unless it uses functions that are available to userland, like drawing on the screen.

This thread is claiming that userland wasn't patched at all, though, and that the devs dun' goofed and released a perfectly working 5.5.1 userland exploit.

This has nothing to do with that

I was mostly referring to H3llbender's post; if the private kernel exploit for 5.5.0 was actually proven to be patched in 5.5.1 and not the userland (like he and some others claim) it would leave the devs one less reason to keep said kernel exploit private.

finally a respected developer, i think u will clear this up, so exactly what happened here,and if the 5.5.1 exploit is present, does that mean a private kernel exploit for 5.5.0 be publicly released? @Marionumber1

If it actually does work (which I still doubt), the 5.5.0 kernel exploit is still staying private.

He updated live from 5.5.0 to 5.5.1, showed his Internet browser version, took requests from the chat. The dropbox link is working, I don't see how it could be fabricated but you should have a look.

edit: he just went offline but hopefully he can highlight it.

  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    @Sicklyboy I am wanting to fully change the game and bend it to my will lol. I would like to eventually have the ability to add more characters, enemies, even have a completely different story if i wanted. I already have the ability to change the tilemaps in the US version, so I can basically make my own map and warp to it in game - so I'm pretty far into it!
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I really would like to make a hack that I would enjoy playing, and maybe other people would too. swapping to the EU version would also mean my US friends could not legally play it
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I am definitely considering porting over some of the EU features without using the actual ROM itself, tbh that would probably be the best way to go about it... but i'm sad that the voice acting is so.... not good on the US version. May not be a way around that though
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I appreciate the insight!
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @TwoSpikedHands just switch, all the knowledge you learned still applies and most of the code and assets should be the same anyway
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    and realistically they wouldn't

    be able to play it legally anyway since they need a ROM and they probably don't have the means to dump it themselves
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    why the shit does the shitbox randomly insert newlines in my messages
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It does that when I edit a post.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It inserts a newline in a random spot.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    never had that i don't think
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    do y'all think having an sd card that has a write speed of 700kb/s is a bad idea?
    trying to restore emunand rn but it's taking ages... (also when I finished the first time hekate decided to delete all my fucking files :wacko:)
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @Karma177 that sd card is 100% faulty so yes, its a bad idea
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    even the slowest non-sdhc sd cards are a few MB/s
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    @The Real Jdbye it hasn't given me any error trying to write things on it so I don't really think it's faulty (pasted 40/50gb+ folders and no write errors)
  • DinohScene @ DinohScene:
    run h2testw on it
