While there are several PS3 OFW Methods and some older games that work on PS3 OFW 4.81 without a second console on Custom Firmware, it's time to reveal the final method to running PlayStation 3 game backups on 4.81. NO CFW/ODE/another bs. :ninja:

:alert: Be careful, there is a very high PSN ban risk. Already I lost few IDPS while online by testing this method. If you get banned on undowngradable console you got ban forever. Prefer to stay at 4.70 or to play offline. :alert:

This method I found few months later I decided to publish.

1. Put an original disc to your PS3. This game should be released after 2012! (these games already have lic.dat).
2. Download any game what you want.
3. Download game patch to this downloaded game.
4. Unpack patch to downloaded game replace everything you can.
5. Open now param.sfo
6. Change Title ID to your original disc game. Example I put to PS3 Uncharted 2 so I change title id to: BCES00757
7. Rename PS3_GAME folder to your original disc game on PS3 TITLEID Example BCES00757
8. Inject with TABR.
9. Start your game from BD. Now PS3 will start your game from patch.

Enjoy you tricked PS3 and launch another game from patch.
Nice security. LOLz.

Follow the guide I got error 8001003E again and again, different games and different discs. Can the author or someone describe it in more detail?
 
According to the Wiki on that error code:

ENOLICDISC - 0x8001003D - Pointer is null. When related to PARAM.SFO : "to play this game, you must insert the following disc. Insert the disc, and then start the game again. (8001003D)": can be resolved by pointing to (only) other PARAM.SFO with Lxx folder. In this case, it s similar than 0x8001003E but with some PARAM.SFO parameter (TITLE_ID?) embedded. Refresh it by using this Lxx or others Tricks.

ENOLICENT - 0x8001003E - Pointer is null. When related to DISC.SFO (and PARAM.SFO) : "to play this game, you must insert the following disc. Insert the disc, and then start the game again. (8001003E) Install disc" : can be resolved by launching BD emulator, or remove the disc.sfo if there are one, using the original disc or using the L** folder

I also see it mentioned on the List:

Use PS3GameConvert_v0.91 if you encounter error 8001003E.

Maybe that will lend a clue for someone examining PS3 stuff. :unsure:
 
  • The only way I got working was with Burnout, that also works in Game mode.
  • Other games give black screen, 80010009 error or 8001003E.
  • In 8001003E case, only one SFO file is available, the param file. I replace it but same error, so it can be a problem with LICDIR or EBOOT
 
I'm using the CFW to OFW for more than 5 months now and nothing happened and playing online on daily basis
Thank you for replying bro! Im in Colombia South America right now visiting my family and they charge people for the service. My cousin just got his 500gb OFW PS3 Slim filled with games and wanted to make sure he didn't get banned after dropping a little cash! Thank you for your reply bro! you da man for that bro! :tup:
 
TO AVOID GETTING SOME ERRORS, PLEASE CONVERT YOUR GAME USING PS3GameConverter_v0.91 linked by @PSXHAX just above.

And do not forget (also) to put your game as "BD Bluray Disc" because it will actually use your game DVD as a support for the game to load.
