WE FINALLY GOT AN ANSWER ABOUT LINKED NANDS! Linked nands can create corrupted data on the other nand when you install titles to it, and apparantly can brick? So you want to unlink nands, i guess.
You don't need to, I'm having no issues with linked nands and no corrupted titles have appeared.WE FINALLY GOT AN ANSWER ABOUT LINKED NANDS! Linked nands can create corrupted data on the other nand when you install titles to it, and apparantly can brick? So you want to unlink nands, i guess.

okay, so we DONT need to unlink nands. WHY IS THIS SO COMPLICATED xD
Because there's no hard evidence for either claim. Even asking in wiiubru, some aren't so sure.Why are there so many conflicting reports about unlinking it vs. not unlinking it?

Do what you think is right. If you want to format sysNAND, then go ahead.
Just make sure to backup your saves first (if you have any on a USB).
Here's a question, can we use the NAND backup to unbrick or at least rollback in case of an accidental 5.5.2?
got it, thanks!Yes, but you'd have to do a hardmod (if the exploit doesn't work on 5.5.2).
So, we're kind of vulnerable until CBH happens, right?using a NAND backup to fix a SysNAND won't work because if Nintendo releases 5.5.2, they'll more than likely block the web exploit when you need to activate RedNAND to start with....
Don't some games check if you have an old version and even contain the latest FW on disc? Couldn't we use a replacing tool to replace the FW on the disc, run the game and get the update? Do they even use the same way of updating?Yup, and no telling when/if that will happen anytime soon. We have a lot done on the Wii U as it is, however, it all seems to require the web exploit. However, I have an idea....but odds are it won't be possible. If you remember the PS3 CFW, it would let you install FW from USB...MAYBE if some-how we could get a FW update that could be installed from USB that was "signed" or has a "fake sign" on it, then we could get RedNAND to be a "Native" NAND...or maybe edit a game to tell you to update regardless of firmware (maybe tell it to see if you are on 9.9.9), if not, then have you update with a RedNAND FW file...doubt that would be possible...but a good thought still![]()
Either way, Both sysnand & rednand wont be able to read the HDD after unlinking/formatting sysnand whether its connected or not while formatting..Just a quick question please when I unlink my nands should I take my external hard drive out before I format sysnand or leave it in because I am worrying about formatting sysnand and then plugging it back in and no games showing up afterwards? what should i do for the best thanks. Also should the sd card be in the slot or not when formatting sysnand?
So your saying you will lose everthing on the hard drive when formatted even out? it wont recognize on the wiiu.Either way, Both sysnand & rednand wont be able to read the HDD after unlinking/formatting sysnand whether its connected of not while formatting..
Doesnt matter IMO. It'll only format the internal storage, Nothing else is touched. To be 100%, Just disconnect everything in itOK thanks so leave them out for the best. Should the sd card be out as well?
Yes but will it still read the games from the HHD when I plug it back in afterwards.Doesnt matter IMO. It'll only format the internal storage, Nothing else is touched.
