Hacking Wii U Hacking & Homebrew Discussion

Okay... so I made a summary for some of the people on SmashBoards who are interested in Smash 4 Custom Music.

Is there anything I could add or I'm potentially missing/got wrong?

You can't update to 5.5.1! Userland IS needed to run kernel/IOSU exploits.

no, people should NOT be updating, IOSU will still need access to a entrypoint exploit, and we havent had any confirmation just yet but its very likely hykem is using the stagefright entrypoint to trigger his IOSU exploit.....so if people update to 5.5.1 they will be stuck with no entrypoint if he is indeed using the stagefright exploit

Userland, but super stable!!!

 

[epicmartin7]

Alright, are you able to spoof your firmware with userland at all, or just Kernel?

 

[MrKeplerton]

Userland, but super stable!!!

So, what can be acieved with userland access? Eli5 me please.

 

[MrRean]

once again
you don't get kernel
because it isn't PATCHED yet, we want it to last for as many versions as we can

pls

Don't blame them, many couldn't read

Well... technically speaking the exploit can't really work anymore on 5.5.1 due to userland being patched. Is this correct? (No sarcasm intended, you're a person working on this project so I Just want to make sure.)

 

[MrRean]

also yea you can only use functions that don't require kernel permissions, so oh well. It's better than noting. You can still get addresses and all and port stuff but not be able to test it...

Kernel Exploit 5.5.0 dont need to be released, we just need to wait hykem release IOSU.
Oh god, how many times we need to say this.
