ok correct me if i am wrong here, so when you install this potato hack you don´t longer require internet to do the hack to go into the hbl to do the mocha firmware?
thanks

Yup, exactly, instead of going into the internet browser you open Wii U Chat, which will launch mocha automatically

Does not work for me. When loading Wii U Chat it gives me the message:

Failed to load sd:/wiiu/payloads/payload.elf
Starting the console without any modifications.


But folders and files are correct.

Try blowing to your sd card pins, if the files are correct it might be the wii u not reading your sd card properly

Got the same error. The SD card is fine (tried with different cards and got the same error). Can open HB Launcher from browser exploit, vWii reads it and can transfer saves from and to the SD.

Try copying the files to the sd card again, verify everything is in place and file sizes are correct

Got exactly the same issue. And I noticed in step3, it showed "patched 0 entries". I guess that's the main reason.
Took some time checked the fst file and fst patch code. Seems my cosoles's fst file doesn't have a valid inject pointer.
So this should not be a general hax for all consoles. At least 3 people in this thread have the same issue.

And my console info: 5.5.5 JPN.
Can you please update tha info? so other people who wants to have a try can notice that.

hi there, this free hax, looks nice, but i have some questions/concerns on this:

1) if your wii u already has CHBC installed, can you install this on top, or does this hax replace CHBC hax?

2) if so, do you need to first uninstall CHBC and then install this hax?

3) does this hax coldboot on startup as CHBC does or not?

thanx, and since this is very dangerous to do, i'd rather not install it to my wii u and risk bricking it,
Running CHBC is fine atm.

For me it also shows 0 entries patched and I have a European console, it happens when you do step 3 again, as for the payload not found issue, I really don’t know what’s happening, you might’ve done something incorrectly

If you already have cbhc installed there’s no need to use this
