Yep! I got the SLC files and the MLC ones, threw them on the as card and went off to the races…. 30 mins of troubleshooting bad solder joints on my nandaid later and I’m in Caffe OS!
I wish I had a bigger SD card on hand but 32gb was what I had laying around.
Thank you for your help everyone!!!!
Oh sorry, I took that out after I flashed the BOOT1_SLC.RAW.
Tried to dump the OTP again with that OTP.bin on the sd card after and get this:
After these flashes, I get a black screen.

I wondered what would happen if I unpluged and plugged back in De_Fuse when the system showed a...
Ok. So do I get that through JNUS (found the title ID) and flash it through minute using the Restore BOOT1_SLC.RAW? Or do I need to obtain another BOOT1_SLC.RAW from another Wii U?
Hello All,
Taking a stab at another Wii U recovery. Boots the the Wii U logo and freezes. Tried UDPIH and nothing happened, so I moved on to De_Fuse. De_Fuse seemed to install correctly, but the output in Putty gets scrambled after the exploit starts (which is why I am not posting outputs from...
Hello All,
I acquired a non working Wii U off of eBay where it boots and gets stuck on the Wii U Logo. I went in and successfully backed up the MLC with a modified sdcard adapter and flashed it to an SD card. The MLC replacement was successful, and it can boot to the same state. I then attempted...
This afternoon, I finished removing the copy of mk8 and cleaning up the system files. At this point, the mlc checker is only returning the corrupt directories that I moved.
And huh ok. I guess that's a bridge that I can cross if I get there.
Thank you very much for everything! You are awesome!
I'll get on it tonight and let you know how it goes. Thank you for all your help :)
I wanna ask a few more questions, more of what if's. I really wanna learn more about the recovery process on the Wii U cause I would love to try this again (with less help next time, sorry for being a noob and...

I was installing system files and I decided to try the Wii U (just for fun). And it successfully booted!!!!!!!

At this point, could the rest of the corrupted files be handled by moving the rest of the remaining bad directories manually and...
oh hek thats a good idea. I was just kinda leaving them next to each other. I'm gonna make that directory.
Also I noticed that some of the applications have corrupted sub folders, should I be able to move the sub folder and reinstall, or will the entire application need to be moved into a...
oh ur all good. I'm going through the new MLC error log, filtering out the games and reinstalling system files without broken directories (TVii, notifications, internet browser, etc). None of it's helping as you would probably expect, I just like seeing the log go down.
Ah, yes, portrait mode, surely the best way to film a row of people. If only there were some way to fit a wider shot, at the expense of height... if only...
