Hacking Wii U Hacking & Homebrew Discussion

[Selim873]

Finally catching up on threads, basically this. I'm only speaking for myself right now but pretty sure once emuNAND is finished, we'll be able to release it without worry, since spoofing will work 100%, at that point it's just making everything more streamlined and finding more exploits to sustain it on higher firmwares. We're slowly but surely getting there, Hykem's documenting more every day and the group's also working on IOSU for latest, sounds like (I'm not involved with that).

Glad to hear this!! Once the 5.5.0 exploit is out, will it not be any different from the ones out already? So spoofing will work? I'll have to get my hands on an HDD, or maybe it could work from the SD card like the Wii did? I have a 32GB SD card already so that'd be nice.

(Meant to post this an hour ago but forgot to hit post.)

im sure you have some totally legitimate reason other than trolling to want to continue posting on miiverse after being banned.........i just cant see it

Many people get banned there all the time due to false reporting. They admins also interpret the Code of Conduct as loosely as possible, so just about anything is against the rules if you think about it loosely enough.

Just ask any one of the millions of innocent Miiverse users who have had perfectly acceptable content wrongfully deleted and have been wrongfully banned because of it.

I would use a hack like this to create a new ban-proof account specifically for custom screenshots, showing off mods, promoting the latest 3DS and Wii U hacking and homebrew developments, and promoting how to use exploits to become ban-proof so that the wrongfully banned users could start using Miiverse again if they get a Nintendo device with a kernel exploit. Even if these posts quickly get deleted by the admins, it will not matter because by then, at least a few other users will have already seen them, and it will be possible to keep posting during a ban.

I think there is one obvious reason this wasn't spread yet and I think we all know why...
Remember that one kiddy that has to show off how "well" he can use TCPGecko to fake time trial times? Yeah...

who did that? wasn't aware the time trial time offset was ever even found

 

[EpicLPer]

Okay so I tried to use "Read FSA" on Mario Kart via TCPGecko today and all it does is kicking the connection out and not reconnecting anymore. Pressing Home on the Wii U then results in a freeze.
I'm using the codehandler exploit hosted on @FIX94's site fyi.

Either that or just speedhacks.

are you using the Tcpgecko from the cheat codes thread? I'm using that one and FSA works fine on my side. >> fb50eb0

Yeah, exactly that one. Weird tho... Dumb question but does it really ONLY work for game discs or also eShop games?

Not sure myself, I'm using a disc.
I don't see why it wouldn't work for Eshop games.

one flaw in your plan, a uninformed user seeing your screenshots would have to be on the latest FW to be on miiverse.......soooooo

honestly people should keep mod screenshots off miiverse, your just begging for them to start banning anyone using hacks or block them from online play.....dont be a dick

I agree,
I wouldn't vote for an anti-ban that is accessed by everyone, I know it would be painful when N bans me while I don't cheat or anything, but it's also very bad when people are using cheats everywhere online without consequences :S.

maybe if they started banning anyone just using the spoof online then i would say a unbanner would be justified, but if they are just banning trolls/cheats meh they deserve it.....who really cares about miiverse bans/deleted messages anyway, as long as you can still play online

1) Kexploit on Wii U
2) TCP Gecko Installer on Wii U
3) Open your game from disc or one installed to the Wii U's hard drive
4) Get to a static menu in the game: MK8: Press - at the main menu to get to the Play Stats menu
5) On your PC, open the TCP Gecko Client: Gecko dNet.exe
6) Type your Wii U's IP into the connection box on the TCP Gecko Client
7) Press Connect, hit ignore on the error
8) Click the FSA tab
9) Click Read FSA Note: Wait about 2-10 minutes for the file system to appear (will show Not Responding until then). This will vary greatly depending on your CPU specs.
10) Extract files or folders

Yeah, exactly that one. Weird tho... Dumb question but does it really ONLY work for game discs or also eShop games?

It works for any; N64 VC ROMs can be extracted through the FSA Read tab and those are from eShop.

So for the last half hour I've created this fancy little Wii U Lib site... http://fshy.de/wiiulib
... however it does not work... If people would've told me earlier that these exploits do not like CSS stuff I'd not have wasted an hour on creating and compiling these things ;P

PS.: I gave up midway with the links due to it not working anyways.

--------------------- MERGED ---------------------------

Okay, I maybe found the reason why the Read FSA on TCPGecko didn't work, the exploit on @FIX94 seems to be outdated. I used @wj44's now and it's working great!

 

[kardus]

5.4, definitely. 5.4 still has the old kernel exploit, just not a Webkit exploit, but 5.5 has nothing, and unless they patch this one which is unlikely, kernel exploit probably won't be released for a while.

Isn't the recently found exploit on 3ds that also works on Wii U not involving webkit?

tbh the webkit is probably the only real software that would be likely to share common bugs across both platforms

 

[the_randomizer]

@EpicLPer does your site/host have the VPad to GC driver on it?

 

[fiveighteen]

Has anyone confirmed if you can block updates ONLY using the TubeHax DNS? (aka no router URL blocking)

P.S. Save the "why don't you try it and tell us?" lol. I'm not risking it.

 

[the_randomizer]

Why the hell did my Wii U decide to disconnect from my router?

And now it's deciding not to let me connect either, lovely.

 

[Selim873]

Why the hell did my Wii U decide to disconnect from my router?

Because it knows it doesn't want to update

 

[the_randomizer]

Because it knows it doesn't want to update

Yup, I give up, no longer wants me to connect, fucking fantastic

Try rebooting your router, then your Wii U if that doesn't work
