Hi all,

Yep another "I need help request thread".

Main goal:
So I'm playing Xenoblade X at the moment and I'm looking to give myself a ton of money just so I can buy everything.

About the Wii U:
-It's a JPN Wii U with Aroma running on it.
-It also has Tiramisu I can switch between the 2 when needed.

First issue was not getting access to a browser entrypoint.

How I access my HBL:
From the guides I've seen online, the normal way is to go into the browser and use
u.wiidb.de (crash)
loadiine.ovh (crash)
So I managed to get access to it by installing Tiramisu, booting into Tiramisu and accessing the HBL via Mii Masker (Solved that issue)

The issue:
I have TCPGecko installed on the Wii U via HBL. When I go into TCP Gecko and click on install directly (A button) or Install with SD Card (X Button) it immediately crashes (Black screen and hangs)

This the final step and thus why I'm making a thread with a help request.
I've read through Reddit guides, GBATemp and watched a ton of videos about installing Homebrew/TCPGecko and even the Windows client but no luck. Can't seen to successfully select an option on TCG Gecko to install and auto boot back into the Wii U menu to try TCPGecko/JGeckoU

Any help on this would be greatly appreciated.

My theories:
SD Card issues? (It's a 128GB microSD in a large size adapter)
Booting into the wrong CFW?
codehandler.bin not found (I found a random one online but couldn't find a more recent one)
