open PSP/PS3 PKG Decrypter_Extractor drop the pkg inside the new window and click on EXTRACT
you will have it extracted.

Make a new directory and drop inside it make_package_npdrm and your pkg.
then open your terminal and write:

cd

press SPACE and drop the folder inside the terminal, then press enter

now digit:

./make_package_npdrm -x

press SPACE, drop your pkg inside the terminal and press ENTER

Open your folder and copy the folder address (c:\bla\bla\bla\)
Open CMD and write:

cd

Press SPACE and PASTE the address, then press ENTER
now digit:

cd ..

and then digit

psn_package_npdrm NameOfFolder

change "NameOfFolder" with your folder name end press ENTER

Open CMD and write:

cd

Press SPACE and drop your folder (with inside your files), then press ENTER
now digit:

cd ..

and write

./make_package_npdrm NameOfFolder

change "NameOfFolder" with your folder name end press ENTER

Open Cygwin (if you are on window) or a terminal on Linux
use cd command to browse inside your hdd (remember that with the command cd .. you will
return on the previous folder)

now once you are in your correct folder with your self inside and coy in that folder unself
and readself.
open notepad++ or gedit

on the terminal write:

readself your.self

change "your" with the name of your self
copy from the terminal or cygwin and paste on your notepad++ or gedit the SELF Header:
Example:

    

SELF Header 



  elf #1 offset : 00000000_00000090

  header lcn:     00000000_00000880

  meta offset:    00000000_000003a0

  phdr offset:    00000000_00000040

  shdr offser:    00000000_005650f0

  file size:      00000000_00b74060

  auth id:        10700003_fd000001

  vendor id:      01000002

  info offset:    00000000_00000070

  sinfo offset:   00000000_00000260

  version offet:  00000000_00000310

  control info:   00000000_00000350 <00000000 00000070 bytes>

  app version:    3.70.0

  SDK type:       Retail

  app type:	  application

save it as self_header.txt (you will need it)

now write on the same terminal:

unself your.self yournew.elf

change "your" with the name of your self and "yournew" with the name that you want for
the elf.
you will have a new file: an elf

if you extracted an ELF from a SELF with the previous method you will have the
self_header.txt
if you don't extracted your ELF, you will need: app type, version offet , app version,
vendor ID, auth ID and sdk type.

Open a terminal or cygwin and browse in that folder where you keep youe elf and copy
makeself (fail0verflow tool) inside that directory.
Open your self_header.txt or keep app type, app version, vendor ID, auth ID and sdk type
near you.

now write:

makeself <app type> <version suffix> <app version> <vendor id> <auth id> <sdk type> your.elf
yournew.self

example:

makeself app 341 3.70.0 01000002 10700003_fd000001 retail my.elf out.self

now wait (may take a while, 15 min or more if you are unlucky)

open Cygwin or a Terminal and browse to your PUP folder.
use cd command to browse inside your hdd (remember that with the command cd .. you will
return on the previous folder)

now write:

./pupunpack PS3UPDAT.PUP OUTPUTDIR

change "PS3UPDAT" if you change the name of the PUP and also change "OUTPUTDIR" with another
name if you want (it will make a new dir with that name)

open Cygwin or a Terminal and browse to your extracted PUP folder.
use cd command to browse inside your hdd (remember that with the command cd .. you will
return on the previous folder)

now write:

./puppack PS3UPDAT.PUP INPUTDIR buildnumber

change INPUTDIR with the name of the folder where you keep your modded extracted PUP
and change buildnumber with the build number (it can be a random number if you don't know
what to write)
example:

./puppack PS3UPDAT.PUP 355derocfw 1323

open Cygwin or a Terminal and browse to your CoreOS pkg folder.
use cd command to browse inside your hdd (remember that with the command cd .. you will
return on the previous folder)

now write:

./cosunpkg file.pkg OUTPUTDIR

change "file" if you change the name of the PKG and also change OUTPUTDIR with another
name if you want (it will make a new dir with that name)

Yes I have also the other keys in there but I think you only need the app key right?

maybe some download links for the tools ?

In this tutorial i'll explain how to use the all the ps3 tools around the network
(i will write better descriptions soon)

To follow this tutorial you will need:

- linux or/and windows*
- fail0verflow's tools
- geohot's tools
- ps3 keys
- psn/force_package_npdrm (for windows users) or sony's make_package_npdrm (for linux users)
- PSP/PS3 PKG Decrypter_Extractor (just for windows users)
- Notepad++ (on windows) or gedit (already installed on linux)
- cygwin and winrar (JUST IF YOU ARE ON Windows)
- NOR dumper (if you want to work with the NOR)
- rms's norunkg (if you want to work with the NOR)
- rms's eEID splitter (if you want to work with the NOR)

EVERYTHING MUST BE ALREADY COMPILED BY YOU OR SOMEONE ELSE (DON'T ASK ME TO DO THAT)

ALL THE TOOLS ARE ON THE NET, JUST FIND THEM

[multipage=Before Starting]
- Before Starting -

Before you start to use these guide you have to place the ps3 keys in the right folder.

- PS3 Keys Folder -

You need to extract all ps3 keys in the following folder:

/home/username/.ps3

change username with the name of your user.
for example:

/home/deroad/.ps3

[multipage=Packages (PKG)]

- Packages -

Packages are like zip or rar files, in this page i'll explain how to decompress and
recompress them.

first thing that you must know is that there are 3 main types of PKGs:

Retail --> Signed by Sony
Debug --> Not Signed
Pseudo-Retail --> Signed but just for Custom Firmware

All the pseudo-retail apps will work just on CFW. If you update from a CFW to OFW and try
to start any homebrew, you will get an error.
Geohot relase a PKG called Test.pkg; this pkg is signed as retail, that's why you are still
able to use in a OFW!


- How to decompress a PKG -

If you have a RETAIL or PSEUDO-RETAIL pkg

On Windows


or

    make a new folder and drop inside it [B]psn_package_npdrm[/B] or [B]force_package_npdrm[/B]

now copy the folder address (c:\bla\bla\bla\)



Open CMD and digit:



[B]cd [/B]



now press SPACE and PASTE the address, then press ENTER

now digit:



[B]psn_package_npdrm -x package.pkg[/B]



or



[B]force_package_npdrm -x package.pkg[/B]



change "package" with the name of your pkg.

Linux

    Make a new directory and drop inside it [I]make_package_npdrm[/I] and your pkg.

then open your terminal and write:



[B]cd [/B]



press SPACE and drop the folder inside the terminal, then press enter



now digit:



[B]./make_package_npdrm -x [/B]



press SPACE, drop your pkg inside the terminal and press ENTER

If you have a DEBUG pkg


On Windows

    

make a new folder and drop inside it [I]psn_package_npdrm[/I] or [I]force_package_npdrm[/I]

now copy the folder address (c:\bla\bla\bla\)



Open CMD and digit:



[B]cd [/B]



now press SPACE and PASTE the address, then press ENTER

now digit:



[B]psn_package_npdrm -x package.pkg[/B]



or



[B]force_package_npdrm -x package.pkg[/B]



change "[B]package[/B]" with the name of your pkg.

Linux


- How to Compress a PKG -

you need to make a file called package.conf (make it with gedit or notepad++)

this file will contain these infos:

    

Content_ID=ID0002-ABCD12345_00-SAMPLE0000000001

K_Licensee = 00000000000000000000000000000000

DRMType = Free

Content_Type = 

Package_Version = 00.01

now as you can see on Content_Type there's nothing written..
you need to say which type of PKG:

GameExec --> Hdd Game pkg
GameData --> Game Update pkg

you can change DRMType with Free or Paid
the K_Licensee is a random alphanumeric code.. you can use without problems
00000000000000000000000000000000

for example:
i need a game update pkg, so i'll write:

    Content_ID=ID0002-ABCD12345_00-SAMPLE0000000001

K_Licensee = 00000000000000000000000000000000

DRMType = Free

Content_Type = GameData

Package_Version = 00.01

you need to change the ABCD12345 with your BLES or BLUS or with what you want

now we need to put this file inside a new folder.
drop inside the same folder all the files we want in the pkg and OUTSIDE the
psn_package_npdrm or force_package_npdrm (on windows) or sony's make_package_npdrm (if you
are on linux)

You must login or register to view this content.


On Windows

On Linux


it will compress a DEBUG pkg


- How to make Game Update pkg -

First thing you have to use Update instead of GameData for one reason: we are going to use
a command that require Update as Content_Type.

so we have something like this for package.conf:

    Content_ID=ID0002-ABCD12345_00-SAMPLE0000000001

K_Licensee = 00000000000000000000000000000000

DRMType = Free

Content_Type = Update

Package_Version = 00.01

save package.conf inside a new folder and drop inside the same folder all the files we want
in the pkg and also the psn_package_npdrm or force_package_npdrm (on windows) or sony's
make_package_npdrm (if you are on linux)

You must login or register to view this content.

On Windows

    Open your folder and copy the folder address (c:\bla\bla\bla\)

Open CMD and write:



cd



Press SPACE and PASTE the address, then press ENTER

now digit:



psn_package_npdrm --patch-for-discgame 



press ENTER

On Linux

    

Open CMD and write:



cd



Press SPACE and drop your folder (with inside your files), then press ENTER

now digit:



./make_package_npdrm --patch-for-discgame 



press ENTER

it will compress a DEBUG game update pkg


- How to make a Pseudo-Retail PKG -

you need a debug PKG (follow the tutorial above)
in the same CMD or Terminal that you used to make a debug PKG do:

On Windows

    copy finalize_package.exe in [B]C:\[/B]

Open [B]CMD[/B] and go in the same folder where you keep the PKG that you want to sign.

then write: [B]\finalize_package YOUR.PKG[/B]

change YOUR with the name of your PKG (you also need to

wait 5 seconds and you will have your PKG signed.

Linux

    copy in the same folder where you keep the PKG that you want to sign.

open Terminal and write: [B].\finalize_package YOUR.PKG[/B]

wait 5 sec and you will have your PKG signed.

[multipage=Self, BIN and Elf]

- SELFs & BINs & ELFs -

Selfs, Bins and Elfs are a executable files (like exe for windows or xex for Xbox360)
Selfs are a security extension of elfs, they are encrypted.
Bins and Selfs are the same thing, but the BINs have the NPDRM encryption

- How to make an ELF form a SELF -

REMEMBER THAT NOT ALL SELFS ARE DECRYPTABLE!



- How to make a SELF from an ELF -

THIS IS JUST FOR NOT NPDRM SELF


- How to make a Pseudo-Retail NPDRM self from elf -

This is Just for ELF extracted from BIN file

On Windows

    copy make_self (geohot tool) in C:\ 



now open CMD end browse to the folder that has your elf, then write:



make_self your.elf EBOOT.BIN ID0002-ABCD12345_00-SAMPLE0000000001



change "your" with the name of your elf, change ID0002-ABCD12345_00-SAMPLE0000000001 with

the content ID of your PKG (yes the content id of your PKG)



WARNING: NPDRM cares about the output of the file name, so DO NOT rename the new SELF/BIN.

On Linux

    make a new folder, copy make_self (geohot tool) in your elf folder (ELF extracted from BIN

file), open your terminal and write:



cd



then press SPACE and drop that folder inside the terminal and press ENTER

now write:



make_self your.elf EBOOT.BIN ID0002-ABCD12345_00-SAMPLE0000000001



change "your" with the name of your elf, change ID0002-ABCD12345_00-SAMPLE0000000001 with 

the content ID of your PKG (yes the content id of your PKG)



WARNING: NPDRM cares about the output of the file name, so DO NOT rename the new SELF/BIN.
