(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); The famous Geohot resurfaced today, to release a useful app called dePKG. The app is very useful for devs, that are planning to look into Sony's official firmware files. dePKG is a linux app, that will decrypt PKG files, that are within PS3UPDAT.PUP files (not to be confused with PSN PKG files).

This will allow devs to take a look at files such as CORE_OS_PACKAGE.pkg, from the convenience of their PC. Previously, the only way to take a look at these files, was via graf_chokolo's method, which utilized the PS3. Geohot's app is ready to be compiled and includes the necessary decryption keys.

With this, developers can decrypt our own modified .PUP files and encrypt them with the newly found Sony Encryption Keys!

Just to let you know !

so u need a jailbrooken ps3 or not so damn confused it gives me headache

You don't need a Jailbroken ps3 anymore, once they've modified the .PUPs, because the modified .PUPs will be identical to the official files from Sony(except for the hacked modification, ofcourse).

And its all coming within a month.

I bet on the news you will see that sony fired about half there staff xD

so how u get it on the ps3....srry jus know catching up to this shit

I believe backup managers like the original PSJB one would work without special payloads, i also am mainly interested in game modding, but i'd like to not need to worry about burning out the blu-ray drive, and the faster loading time is just an added bonus

If you're right about the backup managers not working that'd suck, but w/e

I have no idea what this is about

I don't think it's made for putting on the PS3... it's made for putting homebrew on your PS3
