  • PS3 3.60 Keys Leaked

    First it seemed as if it was just a rumor or perhaps fake. But euss has confirmed that they are indeed real. The day I'm sure all of you have been waiting for. The release of some PlayStation 3 keys (lv1ldr, lv2ldr, isoldr, appldr) have been leaked to the masses allowing you to patch 65 additional games. You will need a few tools in order to patch the SFO of your games. Or not. Word is Rogero says a new custom firmware will be made available. So those of you who don't want to decrypt and encrypt files should just wait a little longer.

    If you post keys in a random topic, you will fast enough be
    marked as a troll. When posting keys, please do it in proper
    format, so it can be easily debunked/proven

    3.60 keys Update:

    Q: recently 3.60 keys surfaced (lv1ldr, lv2ldr, isoldr, appldr), what does this mean for this release and the future?
    A: That is actually a multiparted answer:

    Now that several binairies (Iso module + CoreOS minus the loaders that are inside lv0) can be decrypted, more investigation can be done in them, which give a new boost in (unrelated to the HeN) other targets, like:
    • Hardwareless downgrades : Downgrading with PSgrade Dongle (lv1.self)
    • QA Flagging / systemtokens (spu_token_processor.self) and usertokens (spu_utoken_processor.self)
    • PS2 compatibility (mc_iso_spu_module.self , me_iso_for_ps2emu.self , sv_iso_for_ps2emu.self)
    • Getting per_console_root_key_1 / EID_root_key on 3.56+/slim3K (lv1.self , aim_spu_module.self)
    • Backsigning applications for <=3.55 and patch sys_proc_param_version (appldr.self , lv2_kernel.self)

    Q: So does this mean a future release would be sooner?
    A: Only God knows But it can also be that because of the above, it would become meaningless/surpassed by better progress. So lets all hope for the best
    I will be adding to this article as I learn more. Just wanted to rush this news to you asap.

    UPDATE: Use Deank's EBOOT Fix Tool 0.5 to convert the EBOOTS for you. Just download the keys add them to EBOOT Fix Tool's ps3 folder. (Download below includes the keys, so no need to download them unless using other methods)

    Have in mind that some games (like Sniper Ghost Warrior) have additional .self/.sprx files and it is better to use ebootFIX by dragging the PS3_GAME folder to it - it will find and fix all necessary files. If you use ebootMOD you'll have to search for these files yourself and 'fix' them one by one.
    UPDATE 2: Another Method
    Use SCETool to Decrypt a PS3 3.60 EBOOT.BIN File:
    For those of you who want to decrypt a 3.60 EBOOT.BIN use scetool. Download scetool_0.2.7.zip unzip it to C:\scetool. Create a new folder inside scetool and name it data and download these files here:

    1. keys: ps3devwiki.com/files/devtools/scetool/data/keys
    2. ldr_curves: ps3devwiki.com/files/devtools/scetool/data/ldr_curves
    3. vsh_curves: ps3devwiki.com/files/devtools/scetool/data/vsh_curves


    Put them inside data folder. Put your EBOOT.BIN file in scetool folder. Go to start - run - cmd and cd to the folder were scetool is. For example "cd C:\scetool". Then type this command to decrypt the EBOOT.BIN: "scetool -d EBOOT.BIN EBOOT.ELF" and use this one to encrypt it to 3.41: C:\scetool>scetool -0=SELF -5=APP -6=0003004100000000 -e EBOOT.elf EBOOT.BIN

      Moved: So, what is the way to upack a update pkg so that it can be fixed?

      wow so glad i got my ps3 last week.


      so am i right to assume what was said that at first the games that are 3.60 will have to be fixed for 3.55 than later on a 3.60 cfw will be created.

      so does that mean that ofw 3.60 will get to have cfw without downgrading?

      or just that they can be decrypted? just trying to understand things.

      I the KaKaRoTo quote, i wonder how he will get rootkey on 3.56+. Dont you need to run CFW to be able to find this? I know about that JFW 3.56, but since he said "+", indicating all firmwares above, i wonder what he mean.

      I might be wrong, but i'm under the impression that it is no longer possible to install just a .pup file and you will have CFW. Sony fixed this bug in firmware 3.56. Maybe it is possible if you're already on firmware 3.55 and do some modifications, but i dont think that it is possible to install i.e CFW 3.60 if you're already on OFW 3.60 (without downgrading).

      @Quakes69 Use Deank's ebootFIX & ebootMOD tools. Going to update article now.

      NOT THAT AWESOME... IM STILL STICKING TO MY TRUEBLUE AS MOST OF THESE 3.60 GAMES HAVE 3.55 FIXES ie. crysis 2.... IF THERE WAS A NEW CFW 3.60 I WOULD STILL STAY ON 3.55 (BUT IF IT WAS CFW 4.11+ I WOULD USE IT...) THERE ARE FAR TOO MANY TB GAMES PLAYABLE NOW THAN TO WASTE IT ON 3.60...

      The Download: Deank's EBOOT Fix Tool 0.5 above has the keys already, so no need to download the keys if you are going to use Deans tools.

      @deeptrap I think you have a point there.

      Thanks juggalodebo. Next time if you cannot submit into the members news section PM a MOD. Especially when using a phone.

      I've created a Deank EbootFIX Mod with 3.60 keys already included. Just download -> extract -> and drop the PS3_Game folder on it, and you are done.

      DeanK EbootFix with 3.60 Keys (remove if linking is not allowed)
