Complete noob here when it comes to game/mod forums and hacking. I have read many threads and have not yet found anything that is similar to my issue. Forgive me if this has been answered elsewhere, but if so, could any of you kindly redirect me to the solution? Thank you
Please keep in mind that I will try my best to remember exactly what I did and saw, but this issue has been reoccurring for about five months already.
Here is the non-TLTR Version of my issue: I successfully installed Tiramisu, installed a home brew app (WUP Installer GX I think was the name) to install games from external drive, failed to get the app to work (got some errors, cant remember what), gave up and tried playing a disc game of my own, Wii U began to freeze shortly after launching any channel/application.
Here is the full detailed version of my issue: I successfully installed Tiramisu after following this YouTube tutorial [] and then followed this one shortly after []. I then installed WUP Installer GX through Home Brew channel because I wanted to install games from my external drive (or my SD Card in my case). After following some steps I read online (sorry, its hard to remember from where I read them) I began to run into some install errors, I cant remember exactly what they were, but the main thing was that I couldn't install games from my SD Card. I had reached a point where I was like "at least its modded", so I restarted my Wii U, put in my The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess HD disc and launched it. After about five minutes I realized that the "pre-loading screen(?)" had been on my screen for too long. I force shutdown my Wii U and launched the game again, this time I got past that screen and reached the main menu, only this time the screen froze on the "Controller Selection" screen, but I could still hear the music and see the "selected" border animation around "Wii U Gamepad". I got tired of messing around with my Wii U so I shut it down and let it be for a day or two, I came back to it and the issue remained the same no matter what application I launched.
Things I tried: Uninstalled Tiramisu (had to floor it before my Wii U froze), use my Wii U with the SD Card I used to mod it, deleted a game update on my download manager, only use the game pad with nothing else connected to my Wii U, formatting my Wii U (this one couldnt initiate because my Wii U freezes before the format begins), tried launching into Tiramisu as I suspected that it didnt fully get uninstalled but nothing popped up so my guess is that Tiramisu successfully got uninstalled.
I will try a few other things in the meantime like deleting any browser data and launching the Mii Maker since that is another method I know of to launch the Home Brew app.
I kinda regret trading my OG Wii U for an OG Xbox that has a bad OD, but rip...fuck my ass man...
Again, I am sorry if this has been solved, but I have been looking everywhere and I havent really found anything that has helped me.
One more thing, I am considering buying another Wii U (I know, right) just to get rid off all the fuss, but if mine is salvageable then I wont need to buy another one.
