Yes it's been a while, sorry about that. I have not tried to boot into the Recovery Menu since installing all the MLC and SLC titles.
Before, I would get into the Recovery Menu but could not see anything because the fonts were corrupted.
I would use the Wii U logo on the video output to time when I boot the recovery menu, but there was a time where I was not able to see the Wii U logo so it was difficult for me to get the timing right. I will try to take some time this weekend to experiment some more with booting to the Recovery Menu.
