If you are serious about trying this and getting further than me or try to critique me on what I did then read the WHOLE thread.

I know in the other thread I said I wasn't going to share my breakthrough but its 4am and I'm too tired to keep testing it, I know this is going to sound really stupid but its using notepad. Basically I got to the point where, it would install as if it were official but it would never run and it would make my PS3 constantly crash and the hard drive **** up, probably due to me accidentally ****ing with the actual parts of the .pkg rather than the start, or its just never going to work. I stuffed around with it in the notepad when I replaced the start of the file with one from said official signed file... I would know what part this was but I can't find the official version of what I was using it was something I've had for awhile but I saved over it because you can't save as a different .pkg file using notepad or it will just save as a text file /facepalm

What I have basically been doing is comparing the different starts of the files, that are in every single signed .pkg file actually made by sony, I saved one here but the rest I forgot because I was too pumped,

*PKG€ * À * * ** *` *à (code1 download so its the actual code, no asteriks: You must login or register to view this content. )

You will have to have the right fonts saved on your computer to use them/see them though or they're useless.

Oh btw, the file I got installed as official was using the whole complete start of the BF1943 unlock :

*PKG€ * À * * ** *` *àUP0006-NPUB30077_00-BF1943USLICENSE0 and it also had a shitload of spaces I really can't be bothered counting, but I REALLY don't think that matters.. (Code2 download so its the actual code no asterisks: You must login or register to view this content.)

THE ASTERISKS ARE LETTER CHARACTERS THAT IT WON'T LET ME POST /facepalm I uploaded them as .txt files so you can actually use them now

P.S.

The freeware program Notepad++ is better to do this in.

Replacing the data from an unsigned .pkg and putting it into an already signed .pkg is alot easier if you have any idea what you're doing.

I HONESTLY think doing ANY of this is useless and no one else will get any further with this, geohot probably modified the firmware instead of .pkg files themself, its easier but more dangerous, you can easily brick your PS3.

P.P.S That thread I posted about testing the .pkg files without a PS3 thread doesn't always work for all .pkg file types, for example I looked at .pkg files that are a part of the actual firmware itself and they won't extract/open with it some official .pkg files for games also didn't work when I tested them, the one I used to install ftp server didn't even work.

Also, alot of this probably won't make any sense due to me being so tired and I've gone over some parts and changed parts of what I've written.

In conclusion like I said I honestly don't think anyone will get any further in this but is more than welcome to try all they want to, you can find all the signed .pkg files you want in my other thread. I would also recommend trying to use SCE start of .pkg files I would post em but it takes like 20 mins to compare all the files just do it yourself xD... you can find the SCE start in firmware .pkg files just extract your firmware and look through the .PKG files there are tools about this

I also just realised I haven't put a download link for the modded file that installed but didn't run and crashed when I did, so here it is:You must login or register to view this content. it might be uploaded wrong my connection sucks also. Only problem with it is after I ran it off of USB and the PS3 crashed parts of it changed after it was used, I really can't be ****ed bothering with it anymore, just compare parts of stuff with ctrl+f using find etc.... If anything doesn't make any sense english-wise in this thread let me know I'm so tired xD I'll fix it in the morning...

Also subscribe to my youtube channel, it will be the first place anything goes if I figure this out, as a 30 second video showing it done is faster than a thread to make and tutorial to put in it to do xD You must login or register to view this content.

He has just msg'ed back through msn saying that he is recieving a 'Licencing error',
So i think were gonna have to wait for someone to actually have it running smooth.

Ok...... Was so happy.... : (

Y Would He Want to do that?
Id Understand If A Premium Did it.
But Hes Non-Prem So Y Post It In Premium?

I never unpackaged it.

nice sig

nice work but that would not install for me ... coming to think if u get it to work youl have to release tut ..
very nice work but that would not install for mew

Ok what you are changing is the SCE Header. Or at least adding it I believe. But we shouldn't be taking this pkg! We should make our own or use one that is opensource. Compile it with psl1ght. Then Just use the new appkeys to sign it and encrypt it. While using the new makeself. Then Make a pkg with the new pkg keys that are out..

But i think it is kinda funny that your getting all this rep for almost nothing that has to with unpackaging the pkg.

Hey do you have the original ftp server pkg? So we can see what you changed in yours?

it installed because the signature was correct but it doesnt work because its not encrypted because when you sign it the right way it also encrypts it thats why you cant just add the signature into it like that because its encrypted but the actual pkg data isnt
