Need Help encrypting vsh.self.elf to vsh.self
 

can anyone help me encrypt vsh.self.elf to vsh.self

just download magic pkg. go to tools and choose self rebuilder.

i would recommend using scetool, as magicpkg just rebuilds for sdk 1.00

i am using scetool but i keep getting error "please specify a file type"

this works for me

"scetool.exe -v --sce-type=SELF --compress-data=TRUE --skip-sections=TRUE --key-revision=0A --self-auth-id=10700005ff000001 --self-vendor-id=01000002 --self-type=APP --self-fw-version=0003005500000000 --encrypt vsh.self.elf vsh.self"

but you could also use that command line tool from ps3mfw builder. i think it will rebuild like original unlike magicpkg

edit
be careful on vsh, it tends to give rsod on wrong patching, according to my failed attempts

but cant a vsh be fixed by a recovery install ?

yes, of course. just wanted to warn you. and i think you shouldn't risk any kind of rsod, as i have another cechl04 which suffers permanent rsod

edit
i remember one occurence on 3.56 jfw, which was not recoverable through recovery menu. i have got rsod on a slim after using their reactma tool and it was a permanent one, and i had to fix it with linux on 3.55 (as there wasn't that tool available)

well with that test i got a black screen on boot. nothing would happen, but luckily i could access recovery menu.

sorry for that and it wasn't my intention, but i am patching fw files only with ps3mfw builder directly for safety and i have never encountered any blackscreen with wrong vsh

what task can you patch vsh.self with ? i need to edit some values in there
