PS3 Developer nathan_r32_69 has released a tool aimed at other PS3 developers, that will let you dump your eEID and EID0-EID5, straight to a USB device via the XMB, what is also great, is that he didn’t sell his soul and enter his app into some lousy competition on some mediocre site, saying that, here is a quote from his thread:

This tool dumps your eEID and EID0-EID5 in your usb device from XMB without install Linux or dumping your NAND, extract it and split EID, for example

I´m releasing this for developers who are researching, for example with CEX to DEX (Thanks to J-Martin for the logo)

THIS TOOL IS SAFE, ONLY DUMPS

IT DON´T ALLOW TO LOAD 3.60+ BACKUPS OR LOGIN IN PSN

THIS TOOL IS MORE USEFUL FOR DEVELOPERS THAN TO FINAL USERS

What does this tool

• Dumps eEID directly from the XMB
• Dumps EID0 directly from the XMB
• Dumps EID1 directly from the XMB
• Dumps EID2 directly from the XMB
• Dumps EID3 directly from the XMB
• Dumps EID4 directly from the XMB
• Dumps EID5 directly from the XMB

Install PKG file and load it, you will see the intro screen, choose “Yes” if you want to dump or “No” to exit, remember to connect an usb device before proceed and if you don´t have any usb device connected it will ask for one

Works on NAND and NOR, but in some machines the dump may be blank or erroneous

To know if the dump of EID is correct open your file “eEID.bin” with a hex editor, the beginning must be EXACTLY like this:

Code:
