Problem with USB Hub in vWii

Modernized YouTube for Wii U

YouTube SR Wii U (Modernized YouTube) I'm excited to announce a mini-project I've been working on: YouTube SR Wii U! It's the familiar YouTube app, but with modern graphics. I not only updated the initial graphics displayed when you launch the app (The images are at the end of the post so you can see a preview of what I did.), but also several internal elements, such as the boot sound, etc. I'll let you discover the rest for yourself! This app is based on the latest version of YouTube for Wii U and is region-free, so it doesn't matter if you have a US, Japanese, or European console; it will all work. The app is packaged in WUP format, so you can install it like any other app or game using your preferred installer. Please leave any feedback in the comments of this post. (Note: You still need to use the GiveMiiYouTube plugin. This is a graphics update, so the code remains unchanged. I encourage you to read the README for the release on GitHub to understand everything.) GBATemp won't let me upload the file directly because it has a very low file size limit, so you'll have to go to GitHub to download it. I know it's something very simple, but I wanted to contribute to the community; for me, it's an achievement to be able to share it. Edit: Due to intellectual property reasons and to avoid future problems, I decided to remove this mod while I investigate the matter further, I will probably make the modified files available for download soon, so as not to distribute the complete application. You will need to have your Wii U modifiedI'll make a tutorial since you'll need to use FTPii to replace application files.

Hello everyone. I have a Wii U with homebrew, and I have 2 HDDs, one with Wii U games and another for vWii. I bought a USB hub with a power supply to connect both HDDs to the console so I don't have to plug and unplug them depending on what I'm going to use. With the USB hub, the Wii U part works perfectly, but the vWii part doesn't recognize the USB! I've tried both rear ports. I thought I could use a Y cable on the vWii HDD to connect the data cable to the console and the other cable to the USB hub, but I'm not sure if it will work.

EDIT: I've tried it and it worked! I don't know if it could cause any problems; I don't think so because it's just using the USB from the hub to get more power to function. I've seen that someone had a similar idea; I saw it in the following message
