'''IOS15''' was previously used by some official channels; it has not been stubbed because the [[Internet Channel]], which could not be updated through standard updates, previously used it.

β
Some versions of IOS15 contain a copy of the [[SDK]] with [[error 001]] code; the purpose of this is unclear, as IOS15 was not used by any discs. This was introduced in IOS15v258, built 6 minutes before IOS21v515, suggesting that there was a miscommunication regarding which [[IOS]] was supposed to receive this update, since [[IOS21]]'s hex ID is 1-15, which may be read as IOS15. This only added 624 bytes to IOS15 and 649 bytes to IOS21's [[Starlet]] binary, so it was probably a trivial change in the code to load content 3 of the current IOS instead of the boot content of the [[title]] being launched, and perfectly doable in 6 minutes.
+
This IOS contains the [[NAND Boot Program]]; it seems to be a slightly modified version of v1.21 that patches the Internet Channel. This version is loaded whenever HADJ, HADE, or HADP is loaded, and the content itself is located by searching for the first content with more than 0x400 bytes. This code is only capable of loading private contents, which is why the boot program is not in [[:/shared1]].
In the past, this IOS was often used by homebrew, as it is one of the only known IOSes that is safe to downgrade on [[RVL-CPU-20]] Wiis. It was then used to patch the [[signing bug]] back into newer IOSes, like [[IOS36]].

The only difference between [[IOS14]]v257 and IOS15v257 is that the NCD version changed; this was most likely to allow IOS15 to be updated without causing problems with PokΓ©mon Battle Revolution.
