this idea will only work when connecting a 3.60ofw ps3 to psn using charles

we now need to figuire out how to get a ps3 certificate to register as a charles certificate
as in issued by charles

right here was my idea i only tried 2 cer files that was ca24 and ca27the 1's we already use

the idea bassically was instead of putting the charles certificate into a 3.60 ps3 "which we cant do"

why not put the 3.60 ca24.cer certificate into charles because either way the cer's have to the same info in both files

eg: charles cer from the program renamed it to ca24.cer and replaced in ps3

like i said i only tried 2 of them not all of them

i got the 3.60 cer''s out of a rebuild folder which was posted on ngu

i cant test them all because i dnt have access to a 3.60 ps3 i borrow my neighbours sometimes when i want to try things

we cant get them into 3.60 ofw and if there the same so be it

but my point is is that u open up the certificate and copy the contents and then replace charles certificate with the info out of the ps3 cer

get my drift

as we did b4 all we did was rename charles certificate to ca24 and reflsah it to ps3

my point was put the info out of a 3.60 cer and put that into charles

after all both files ps3 and charles contain the same info

so tell me how it aint goin to work

it might not work tho but coming in and blaintantly saying it wont work without at least trying it out

also this will only work with charles running and connecting a 3.60 ofw ps3 to psn

im not trying to do it with 3.55 cfw

my whole point of it is to somehow trick the ps3 and grab the passphrase from a 3.60ps3

you didn't understand what i meant to say when i said reflash it. i meant unpack 3.60 OFW , replace cert24 or cert27 with the one from charles then repack the firmare and reflash it from service menu on the ps3 that has 3.60. it's the only way yo get the certificate in the OFW since 3.60 is not jailbroken. the passphrase is not in the certificate files. it is inside vsh.self, wich connot be decrypted.

u dont get what im trying to say

think about it properly

the way we could get on psn with charles before was to rename the certificate that charles uses to ca24 and put it in the ps3

because we cant get a charles certificate into ps3

we open on 3.60 ofw certificates "1 at a time" and copy the contents

and paste that contents into the charles certificate

charles and ca24.cer contain the same info when we used them last time

for god sake would u think about it grasp the idea im putting forward

If you have the certificate it means you can encrypt data, but doesnt mean you can decrypt them. Its similar to ps3 files but in the other way, public key is used for encryption, private key (which we don't have) is used for decryption. NO, you can not decrypt the traffic.

We used the charles certificate on the PS3 so the PS3 encrypts the data in the way Charles can decrypt it (because charles has the private key for the charles certificate).

and this idea needs to be done with a 3.60 ofw connecting to psn with charles running

so how did charles work last time then

charles decrypts the traffic or we wouldnt be able to see the old passphrase

Do a barrel roll!
Maybe putting the 3.60 certificate on a 3.55 ps3 and charles aswell? Thats the only thing i could try becuase i only have 1 ps3 which in on 3.55

loosing my time with noob hackers wannabees. you should think before talking. the only thing that makes charles work with he ps3 is the fact that it's own certifcate replaces one inside the ps3, not the other way around.
the fact that you opened 10 threads about the same thing says all about how much you know. good luck...you'll need it
