Hacking The Definitive Guide to Wii U Hacking

[fiveighteen]

Hi! I'm trying to launch Loadiine GX2. every time I've load kernel from web i get black screen with pixels or console freeze. I've tried any times. Want should I do? Thanks for any help. My system is 5.3.2.

Clear cookies and data, load 4 youtube/facebook tabs, restart console, etc. There are some tips in the OP.

Just for your info.

Today, I've got a new Wii U (Nintendo Wii U Premium Pack black, 32GB incl. Mario Kart 8 (preinstalled)).
Comes from Amazon WHD Germany and unfortunately it is on FW 5.5.1.

I think refurbished ...it was definitly unused (made the initial setup and MK8 still was preinstalled)

I am sorry for you dude. But i think buying it from a physical store would be better. Because you can check the serial number and that would give you a tip about the fw version. I guess Amazon has either sold a refurbished one (which a customer bought but returned to amazon) or a new bundle woth new updated fw version.

You can return it back to amazon if you want. And try your chance on a physical store. If you live in Germany, try your chance in Mediamarkt and Saturn. They might have old stock bundles in their stores. Try to look a store which is not so popular

I would like to dump a game, so I was reading the Dumpiine instructions and didn't understand this bit:

2. Get the Modified Kernel Exploit to run (Press B in the AIO Kernel Exploit).

But the section above it looked like what it was about (Kernel Exploit), now stuck on this:

3. Type your URL (IP+Port) from Mongoose into the URL field (Ex: http://192.168.1.239:8080)
Note: Bookmark your server URL for easier future access!

What is Mongoose? There's no section with that word in it :-(

Also what do I do with the Dumpiine files? The look like raw source files. Do I need to compile them or something? The instructions don't seem to say what I am supposed to do with them?

Thanks for your commiseration.

I'm trying to sell it without profit or wait a few days (maybe the private exploit becomes public soon ) ...if not, the bundle goes back and I bought an expensive bundle. :/

Hm, it's not the end of the world...

Mongoose is a web server hosting app just search "Mongoose webserver"

Are there some news about version 5.5.1?

 

[BothyBhoy]

nope no news just userland....

1) You must use the modified kernel exploit to run both Loadiine and Dumpiine. The original kernel exploit is for the rest of the hacks.
2) Mongoose is the webserver to run on your PC
3) The Dumpiine files are on your PC, which are available to your Wii U because of Mongoose.

I recommend downloading the DefinitivePackage ("Can you just give me one download package with everything in it?") and reading through the OP.

Is it possible to hack a Wii U running 5.1 without getting a 5.3.2 game?

 

[jmrodrigues]

If hacking, you mean running loadiine, no it isn't, no one developed it for anything other than 5.3.2 or 5.4.0. Just get a game with 5.3.2 update. Offline updates or a homebrew channel are still months away, if ever to exist.

I mainly want to run game backups, but i'm guessing that's included in what you're saying.

"backups" = Loadiine

Okay thanks, follow up question, are games like Mario Maker's online features usable on older firmwares, or do we need to update the Wii U to access ANYTHING online? Just weighing up my options here, seeing if loadline is worth being on old software.

Unless something's changed nothing can be used online from Loadiine period

Final Questions, I saw on Reddit someone mention that there is a way to run gamecube and wii game backups even on 5.5.1, is this true? And if so, does it also cost me online access to do this?

Yes it is and no it won't. Check out Nintendont and either WiiFlow, USBLoader GX, or CFG Loader for GameCube and Wii Games respectively

Post a screenshot because I have no idea what you mean. Also, make sure to use TubeHax DNS whether you use URL filtering or not.

Okay so I have to ask at this point since I have been at this for a while now, I havent found a clear tutorial on how to run the Kernal Exploit on my 5.4.0U Wii U, correct me if I wrong, but nothing has to be done? You just have to visit any of the websites mentioned, select Kernal Exploit, and hope it installs it? and if it doesnt try again? BTW I have nothing on my SD Card, please inform if I am missing something.

That should do it. Note, though, that it's not really "installing" anything. The Kernel Exploit has to be re-run every time the Wii U is booted before running a hack. You may have trouble getting it to work the first time (freezing or garbage data/pixels) but once you get it to say Success or Race Attack Failed you should have a much better rate of getting it to work thereafter. To get past the freezing try clearing cookies/data in the browser or any other tips from the OP.
