So will ISO loaders work within the homebrew channel now?

If Nintendo cares at all I'm sure they will overwrite the cIOS with every WiiU update or tell you that your system files are corrupted and can't be updated without returning to the orig IOS.

[DEFAULTDNB]

I made a quick little pack to make it easier

WiiU Wad Installer Pack V1:
Contains everything above, autoboots IOS236 in mmm, copy to SD (put your wads in the WAD folder) and go.

@zebular no they wont.

EDIT:

Info on the vWii cIOS method via DaMysteryMan

Well, I am sure that thread title caught your attention :P Well, maybe. With the release of HBC v1.1.1 (v1.1.2 now) (for those who do not know of this, links here, here and here), access to AHBPROT-related features is now available on the vWii of the Wii U. So anyways, I installed the new HBC this morning, but unable to make a NAND dump due to BootMii being unable to be installed on the vWii. However, I managed to fully dump the entire unencrypted contents of my Wii U's vWii NAND using WiiPower+Nicksasa's old FS Toolbox app, which I had modified to add in support for AHBPROT runtime IOS patching so it would actually work in vWii. The main reason I wanted to dump the NAND contents was to have a look at the vWii IOS, especially due to them being hardcoded to throw error -1017 if trying to install a system title, and I wanted to try patch that out. FS Toolbox MOD dol+src here, use it at your own risk! Could brick vWii if you do not know what you are doing. So I managed to get what I wanted, and after a while messing around in IDA (despite me not really having much coding or reverse engineering knowledge), I managed to find out where this new IOS "feature" was, and managed to create a few patches that, when applied via either AHBPROT supporting app, or by hex editing the ES IOS module then rewriting it to NAND, will then allow that vWii IOS to be able to install system titles like IOS once more (and presumably system menu too, but I am too scared to try that right now, since I do not have any way to recover vWii if it does not like that). So, here are the patches I made, 4 in total, must enable all 4 of them (tested working with IOS36 v3864 and IOS55 v5919):

Kill_AntiSysTitleInstall1
Search pattern: D0054B29429AD002
Replace with: 46C04B29429A46C0
Kill_AntiSysTitleInstall2
Search pattern: 2A01D005

Kill_AntiSysTitleInstall3

Kill_AntiSysTitleInstall4
Search pattern: D0079C034A6B4294D003
Replace with: 46C09C034A6B429446C0

Modified iospatch.c for AHBPROT apps with these added patches here. <- link updated, fixed big typo. Now that we can install IOS wads on vWii, what can we do? Well, here is where that big "But..." in the thread title comes in. Answer is, not much at all, at least not yet. You can install older IOS (and cIOS if you have signature patch enabled too), but you cannot do much with them. I have not tested any with games, so do not know what would happen there, but just testing them out in Multi-Mod Manager (WiiMod would blackscreen on me every time I tried loading it with AHBPROT support on vWii... do not know why), I noticed that both older Wii IOS, and cIOS, which are based on them, you can reload to them, and perform basic things (like navigate around the app for example), but nothing really too awesome. However, every time you try to initialize SD or USB with either old Wii IOS or cIOS, they would crash, freezing the Wii U, which is of course no real use at all. Also, for me, it seemed that initializing network abilities is not doable with these either. Trying did not freeze the Wii U like initiializing SD or USB did, but just "failed to initialize network" error message in apps. So, long story short, these patches allow Wii U vWii IOS to install system titles once again, no more error -1017. Do so at your own risk though. You can reload to older IOS, but can not use many features without them crashing and freezing up the Wii U. For things like USB Loaders to work on Wii U vWii, I believe things like d2x cIOS would have to be updated to support using vWii IOS as bases for vWii cIOS. ...I think that sums it all up. Well, enjoy!

Followed by:

OK! I have modified IOS236 Installer for use on Wii U vWii: IOS236 Installer MOD v6 Special vWii Edition (same link as in first post) App dol + source included. It uses these patches to install IOS236, and also applies them to IOS236 so that IOS236 can install system titles itself without AHBPROT. HOWEVER! It REQUIRES IOS36-64-v3864.wad on the root of your SD card, since it is not available to download from NUS. (Not by Wii or vWii anyway) You would have to dump it from your vWii, or find it elsewhere... I have it uploaded to my mediafire files, but I do not know how to actually share it, what with legality and forum rules and all. Maybe someone will hopefully find it then spread it all over the internet? :lol: Enjoy!

And most interestingly :

I tried looking at d2x source to see if I could port it myself, but I think that is a little out of my league :lol: But I have sent davebaol a PM talking about this though, hopefully he will be able to reply to me sometime.

In the meantime I wonder if we can use pussyloader/casper (v3 or a mod) to load burnt discs? Can anyone try this out?

[zebular]

Now if we can only have this in Wii U mode :D

[Realfolkblues]

Everytime I try to run a VC wad I get an error "this channel can't be used" how do you fix that?
