Following the PS3 Game Backups on OFW 4.70 guide, this method by me (Hibatullah Albatawy on YouTube) details how to make PS3 CFW games work on any PlayStation 3 OFW with a summary from @djurist located HERE.

Note that it needs two units of PS3 the CFW as the master and OFW as the target.

STEPS:

1. download GAME_CONVERT.rar
2. extract it to C:, it will be PS3>Game Convert>Convert.bat and make_npdata.exe
3. copy any PS3_GAME that have LICDIR folder in it, if it doesn't have then you have to find it yourself with LIC.DAT Generator online http://jonnysp.bplaced.net/lic.php#
4. paste it inside Game Convert folder, it will be PS3_GAME, Convert.bat, make_npdata.exe
5. double click Convert.bat, type NPxxxxxx, these x are your retail game id. for instance, the game id is BLES12345, then you must type NPEB12345.
6. wait untill it finishes its job
7. make a glass of hot cocoa
8. when it's done, you can see a new folder exist.
9. download the patch update for that game (BLES12345) and extract it. put the eboot.bin out of it. place it in NPEB12345/USRDIR/
10. create a folder named TEST on an external HDD (FAT 32)
11. copy NPEB12345 and BLES12345 (the extracted patch update), paste it into folder TEST.
12. on PS3 CFW 4.81, copy the two files into dev_hdd0/game..
13. do Rebuild Database
14. the game will be shown in XMB
15. turn on PS3 OFW 4.81 and plug an ethernet cable and connect it to PS3 CFW one.
16. on CFW, go to Settings> System Settings> Data Transfer Utitlity> pick number 1> say no> say no> waiting for transfer> enter
17. on OFW do the same way, but pick number 2, just wait till it gets questions for asking to format, hit yes and yes.
18. and transferring, happy waiting
19. drink your no longer hot cocoa
20. profit

Hi.
I have three questions:
1. What to do, if a game has no update pkg available ? e.g: Blur, DragonBallz Ultimate Tenkaichi
2. What if a game has multiple update pkg(s) available ? e.g: God of War Ascension
3. For some games, convert.BAT creates files like EXTRASCIN2.PSARC.66600, EXTRASCIN2.PSARC.66601 with size equal to or above 4 GB (43023,05,552 bytes) size, which is not supported by any FAT32 format disk (pen drive or HDD), then how to transfer such games to PS3 via USB ? e.g: God of War Ascension

Could you please explain proper steps to follow in such cases ?
Thanks in advance !
 
Plenty of people say it does, you must be doing something wrong. Follow each step carefully.

Did everything as it should be done the game doesnt have any updates so I used the original EBOOT and I keep getting this 80029530 Error and on CFW yet it still doesnt work and gives me this 80029530 crap

So you haven't done everything as it should be done. Where does it say if there isn't an update you can use the original eboot?
