I have three questions:
What the fricc,
Why the fricc, and
How the fricc?

I thought Nintendo stopped updating Wii U consoles. What does this update even do?

There is update for US now.

What the hell Nintendo? At least delete the Miiverse icon...

Its safe to update?

Its safe to update?

At the moment we dont know. So dont update

 

[huma_dawii]

I will update and report back...

EDIT:
Apparently nothing for a "region freed" console.. It says my console is up to date.
My console was originally USA region..

Could you maybe specify what region your console is too? It'd probably narrow down to see if this update was actually distributed in all regions or not.

Don't forget to remove CBHC before updating to prevent bricks.

If I uninstall CBHC will it revert to regular haxchi?
Also can I uninstall CBHC and go back to regular haxchi, perform the update, launch haxchi, launch the homebrew channel from the main menu and the reinstall CBHC or do ｗｅ not know yet?

We don't know yet, you probably could... but we cant assure it didn't really break homebrew or other stuff.

Anyone needing the spoof files for firmware 5.5.4E I have attached them to this message. I managed to back track and just about remember how to extract them with jnustool. You need to use the correct attached wup installer by Dimok and put all the firmware files on the route of the install folder on your sd card and install. Some may wounder why not just update, personally it's a better way to update, you can keep all your settings the same i.e. cbhc without any extra setting up afterwards also if like me you deleted the update folder using ftp fillezilla back in the day you will need this unless you remember how to put the update folder back again correctly.

here it auto update... and every thing seems still working fine

 

[jeffyTheHomebrewer]

heh, and I thought 5.5.3U was the last update. (And that I thought it broke loadiine.ovh, which it didn't.)

Just turned on my Wii U today after a very long time in order to setup some MAME for some guests coming over later. After I exited HBL I was greeted with the auto update and was freaking out. But went ahead anyway (as I had no choice but to click OK).

Everything seems OK so far, Haxchi boots up again (using hot haxchi).

I put HBL on vWii mode for the first time using the smash hack using this version (5.5.4 E) and all works as intended.
