Hacking Wii U Hacking & Homebrew Discussion

[bache]

I've recompiled the homebrews from a fresh new libwiiu just now, and uploaded them to wiiulib.arndroid.nl.

Maybe we'll have better luck this time?

Still nothing I'm afraid !

Sorry man, same for me too.

Crashes on me...

Try it a few more times, if it keeps doing a weird black screen, then you're SoL, but at least we know it's an issue (Rean has the same thing, dunno what's up, you'll just have to wait since I don't think you even have code execution).

I haven't had a single black screen. It just froze halfway loading the page.
I tried it several times, on-TV and off-TV.

Ohwell... thanks for trying out guys.

When I load them, I randomly crash, or get a popup saying the file is too big.
Then again, I am using a 3.0.0 payload on 2.1.0. (I expect no code execution, crashes are good enough )
So I can't really test it.

Does using OSCheckActiveThreads hang for anyone else? Just curious. Here's a sample I cobbled together to try it:

#include "loader.h"

void _start()
{
    /****************************>            Fix Stack            <****************************/
    //Load a good stack
    asm(
        "lis %r1, 0x1ab5 ;"
        "ori %r1, %r1, 0xd138 ;"
        );
    /****************************>           Get Handles           <****************************/
    //Get a handle to coreinit.rpl
    unsigned int coreinit_handle;
    OSDynLoad_Acquire("coreinit.rpl", &coreinit_handle);

    //Misc OS functions
    void(*OSRestartGame)();
    OSDynLoad_FindExport(coreinit_handle, 0, "OSRestartGame", &OSRestartGame);
    /****************************>          Initial Setup          <****************************/
    //Restart the web browser. This stops active threads for browser. Browser GUI thread runs on CPU0.
    OSRestartGame();
   
    long(*OSCheckActiveThreads)();
    OSDynLoad_FindExport(coreinit_handle, 0, "OSCheckActiveThreads", &OSCheckActiveThreads);

    long initialNumberOfThreads = OSCheckActiveThreads();
    char buffer[256];
    __os_snprintf(buffer, 256, "OSCheckActiveThreads %ld", initialNumberOfThreads);
    OSFatal(buffer);
}

For me it just makes the screen go grey with random white pixels thrown all over the place.

If some examples freeze in the middle of loading then the problem is in the way they are loaded and not in the code itself. They might actually work. Try loading them directly from a favourite a soon as you fresh open the browser.
If they crash, go black screen of freeze the browser after the payload.html file has been fully loaded then you executed something in the console and the problem will be on the code.

I updated hello.html and exit.html based on finding out that the copy of code we were using for execution was cut off, try this and see if it works any better.
http://nwplayer123.bplaced.net/hello.html
http://nwplayer123.bplaced.net/exit.html

Working good here for 5.3.2

 

[MrRean]

I just tested the new hello.html, it works! <3

 

[Adr990]

Could you, or anyone else on 5.3.2, test the Hello World from my website? (wiiulib.arndroid.nl)

I've replaced my 5.3.2 helloworld payload with the exact same one from NWPlayer123. (http://nwplayer123.bplaced.net/hello.html)

Also, I cleaned up some web code, and added a "Info" which you can find at the info button "(i)", showing you your browser info stuff.

Unfortunaly it froze both times I tried.

 

[Lory171]

Try this
http://wiiulib.arndroid.nl/brew/helloworld/payload532.html
And this
http://wiiulib.arndroid.nl/brew/helloworld/index.html

 

[Adr990]

Wow...

How about this:
http://wiiulib.arndroid.nl/hello/

Edit:

Try this
http://wiiulib.arndroid.nl/brew/helloworld/payload532.html
And this
http://wiiulib.arndroid.nl/brew/helloworld/index.html

^This is the same thing I wanted you to test.
But my new URL (/hello/) is shorter. hehe

That did work first time.

 

[Lory171]

That did work first time.

The problem is in that menu page
http://wiiulib.arndroid.nl
It makes loading of the exploit html stuck

 

[Adr990]

That did work first time.

That's... interesting.
Maybe if there are one or multiple sites before the payload, it doesn't work properly anymore?

How about this:
http://wiiulib.arndroid.nl/hello2/

(Also thanks for testing)

Edit:

The problem is in that menu page http://wiiulib.arndroid.black

That really seems to be the case... (I was hoping it wasn't)

But on /hello2/ I have the index.html that selects the correct payload as a extra webpage now, before the actual payload, like on /hello/.
If that doesn't work, then I could just direct link all the correct payloads instead.

Otherwise, I'll have to find some way to clean the WiiU's memory, or whatever the case may be, when clicking on a homebrew on my site.

That one also worked first try.

 

[Adr990]

Cool, thanks.

If it's not to much asked, could you just try this one more link?
http://wiiulib.arndroid.nl/brew/usbstor/index.html

Then I'm sure of the next things I should try.

I 've already tried index.html and it s working, knowing the problem is in the menu page it will probably be something you implemented to interact with the wii u.

Alright, thanks guys.

Then I'll look into it, mess around, and tell you guys to test some more. haha
I have a few idea's actually, but I'm not sure.

Edit:
If anyone has suggestions, I'd be pleased to hear them.

Edit2:
Here are some quick test versions I made:

http://wiiulib.arndroid.nl/test_2/
http://wiiulib.arndroid.nl/test_3/

@Lory171
@Kappacat
Again, thanks in advance.
