My copy+paste muscles were aching after this but got there in the end lol.
Cheers

Edit: meant to post that in the other thread but they're related so it still counts.

Edit2: just a heads up, to get asn1 you gotta do a "pip3 install future" before you do "pip3 install asn1"

What if my "friend" would share his titelkey for a game. Would i be able to run it after i extract my cert key and use your HACDN tool to download it and then apply the "borrowed" titlekey? Have you tried this?

Want your cert to access Nintendo's CDN, but you're not on 3.0.0 anymore so you can't run the PegaSwitch script?
Don't worry, I've got you covered!
Included in the pack is everything you need to generate a pfx certificate file from a NAND dump!

Usage:
  • First, make sure Python3 and both the asn1 and pycrypto modules are installed.
  • Next, copy your PRODINFO.bin partition into the folder
  • Now, add the required keydata into "00_generate_ssl_kek.py", then run it; this will output the ssl_kek.
  • Add the generated ssl_kek into "01_decrypt_privk_extract_cert.py", then run it, that will decrypt your private key and extract your cert.
  • Then, run "02_convert_to_der.py", which will convert the extracted files into DER.
  • Lastly, run "03_save_as_pfx.bat" to save it as an installable PFX certificate!
  • Voila! You can now find your generated certificate in the new folder named "Out"!
How 2 get dem keyz???
  • The first key is generated by XORing the AES_KEK (kek_mask 0) with the CryptoUsecase_RsaPrivate seed (kek_seed 1).
  • The second key is the original master key, you can extract it from your keyblobs using hactool.
  • The third and fourth keys are plaintext in the ssl sysmodule NSO.
  • Or alternatively, you can skip this entire step by finding the ssl_kek online, not giving links for obvious reasons... (Trust me, it's out there!)
Massive thanks to @SocraticBliss for helping me out with the python stuff and @SciresM for the RSA calcs required in script 02.

How do you get required keydata in step 3 ? Extracted my PRODINFO.bin from my nand backup but i don't know where to start

Didn't even read the tuto...

    I rather enjoy a life of taking it easy. I haven't reached that life yet though.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    He put it down when the 3ds came out
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @K3Nv2, RIP Felix does great videos on the PS3 yellow-light-of-death.
  • Jayro @ Jayro:
    Eventhough the New 3DS XL is more powerful, I still feel like the DS Lite was a more polished system. It's a real shame that it never got an XL variant keeping the GBA slot. You'd have to go on AliExpress and buy an ML shell to give a DS phat the unofficial "DS Lite" treatment, and that's the best we'll ever get I'm afraid.

    The phat model had amazingly loud speakers tho.

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Jayro, I don't see whats so special about the DS ML, its just a DS lite in a phat shell. At least the phat model had louder speakers, whereas the lite has a much better screen.

    They probably said "Hey, why not we combine the two together and make a 'new' DS to sell".
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's a DS Lite in a slightly bigger DS Lite shell.

  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's not a Nintendo / iQue official product, it's a 3rd party custom.

    Nothing special about it other than it's more comfortable than the Lite

    @SylverReZ if you could find a v5 DS ML you would have the best of both worlds since the v5 units had the same backlight brightness levels as the DS Lite unlockable with flashme
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    but that's a long shot

    i think only the red mario kart edition phat was v5
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    A woman with no arms and no legs was sitting on a beach. A man comes along and the woman says, "I've never been hugged before." So the man feels bad and hugs her. She says "Well i've also never been kissed before." So he gives her a kiss on the cheek. She says "Well I've also never been fucked before." So the man picks her up, and throws her in the ocean and says "Now you're fucked."

    Agreed, that why I try to buy all my games on disc, Xbox anyways. Switch games (which I pirate tbh) don't matter much, I stay offline 24/7 anyways.
