Hello, i saw this recovery menu a few days ago and since i had a second hand bought wii u locked with nnid screen and parental password, i decided to buy a rasp pico and a micro sd, i did everything fine, the pico was flashed and my micro sd works and has the file in it, the pico was plugged in the right place. The problem is that i when i do it perfectly the screen goes black, it doesnt work and the wii u turns off, the gamepad also deconnect, i cant manage to load the recovery menu, i checked every issues but no one was talking about this problem, it might my micro sd since i downloaded the file on an android and android creates android file that isnt removable. Please help me, it seems to come from there but i have no idea, i also started coldboot but nothing, i hope you read this and help me.

Power off means that the menu can't be read from the SD Card. Make sure to format it as FAT32 and download the file using a PC. Afaik some phones add a file ending to the recovery_menu file which won't work.

First thanks for your work. and I have a broken WIIU since 5y I see this fix but when I try using recovery_menu file I get nothing on TV but the power LED light is purple and when I use recovery_menu_dc_init file I get blue screen with text "There is problem with system Memory...."

* I use UDPIH Nintendo Switch Payload.

* My WIIU GamePad is broken So I can't use it to get the signal
  Thanks.

Seems like wrong timing. Try plugging it in sooner / later.
