Vwii Nand Backup

[Mike Fowler]

DumpMii NAND is a tool that allows you to create a backup of the NAND (the internal memory) of your vWii or Wii in BootMii format (nand.bin). This is useful for preserving important system files and settings in case of system failure or for use with other homebrew applications.

To use this Dump Mii NAND, simply run the DOL file and wait. The Dump Mii NAND utilizes AHB access to load the dumper onto Starlet/Starbucks and dump the data to the SD card, similar to how Nintendont works.

If it does not have AHB access, it will use the BootMii IOS to run the dump. This can be installed using the HackMii installer on a normal Wii or with the WAD file provided on the download page for a Wii U using a compatible IOS236 or WAD manager.

Aroma is installed onto to an SD card. Aroma can be installed here . Install PayloadLoader Installer here. Extract the contents of the newly downloaded aroma zips and copy them to the SD Card. Select merge to merge the files of the zip files, then copy the PayloadLoaderInstaller.wuhb file (inside a different ZIP file) into /wiiu/apps

After putting the SD card in the Wii U make sure you are connected to the Internet. After confirming you are connected to the Internet open the Internet Browser and go to wiiuexploit.xyz . click the "Run Exploit!" button and hold the B button until a menu appears. if your Wii U is frozen wait a few seconds. if nothing happens reboot the console and reset the Browser's save data and retry this step

Press A to start dumping the NAND. once you have dumped the NAND turn the Wii U off and take out the SD card. copy slc.bin, slccmpt.bin, seeprom.bin, otp.bin and mlc.bin.part file to your computer. delete the file from the SD card after copying them.
