How to Hack your WiiU

aka, me plagerizing from wiiu.hacks.guide

prep

make sure you have a (at least 32bg) sd card, and the wiiu can connect to the internet

also update your console (for me it's 5.5.6)

setup files

power off your system

take the sd card out of your system

go to this site and scroll down and check all the check-boxes, then press on the "Download Payloads" and "Download Base Aroma" buttons

extract the "wiiu" folders from the zip files to the sd card. if your computer says that you need to overwrite files, click yes

exploit

put the sd card back into your wiiu and turn it on

go to wiiuexploit.xyz on the wiiu and press on "Run Exploit!", hold B until you see a screen that says: "Please choose your payload"

if you see a screen that says: "EnvironmentLoader" you didnt hold down B long enough

gotta take a dump

scroll down to "nanddumper" and press A

use the d-pad to select this config:

Dump SLC: yes
Dump SLCCMPT: yes
Dump MLC: optional
Dump OTP: yes
Dump SEEPROM: yes

press A to dump these files

once it's done turn off the console and put the sd card into your computer

copy the slc.bin, slccmpt.bin, seeprom.bin, and otp.bin files to a safe place. if there are mlc.bin.part files, save those too.

once you have copyed them onto your computer, delete them from the sd card to make space

install the hacks

put the sd card back into your wiiu and turn it on

redo the steps from exploit but hold X this time

press A on the "aroma" option

press A again to load into the Home Menu

open the new "PayloadLoader Installer" app on your home screen (it's the one with the circle with an A in it)

press A to check to see if you can install PayloadLoader

press A again to install PayloadLoader (the Install / Update option)

use the d-pad to select Install and press A

press A to shut down the wiiu

OPTIONAL (but good): autobooting aroma

boot up the console and launch the Health and Safety app, press A to launch Aroma, press A to go back to the Home Menu

relaunch the PayloadLoader Installer app

press A to select Check

press A to select Boot Options

press A on Switch to PayloadLoader

press A again to shut down the console

finishing installing

setup aroma

go into EnvironmentLoader either by opening the Health and Safety app (skipping the last thing) or turning on your console

use the d-pad and press Y to default, and A to open.

if you get a red screen about updates not being blocked, we're going to fix that soon

anyway, select the Wii U Menu from the boot menu and press A

(to boot into this menu hold down the start/+ button on boot, if you autobooted)

blocking updates

turn off your console and put in your sd card

go to here and download the .wuhb file

put it into the wiiu/apps folder on the sd card

put the sd card back into the console and boot aroma

run the wiiu menu and launch the UFDiine app and press A

if it says that the update folder had been deleted, woohoo

exit UFDiine, the red screen is gone

good apps to install

download this and this (the wiiu-extracttosd.zip file

copy the contents of both zip files to the sd card, not in any folders

to use bluetooth controlers download the Bloopair zip file

copy the 30_bloopair.rpx file to the wiiu/environments/aroma/modules/setup folder

copy the wiiu folder (from the zip file) to the sd card, not in any folders
