    Hello, maybe anybody can help me - some xbox 360 games like, for example, Rock Band and some other titles requires "retail system encryption keys" to work properly. I want to know which exactly keys it's means ? Can anybody tell me values of these particular "retail" keys or where/in which system files I can get/extract them ? Thanks!

    Maybe CPU and DVD keys, they are specific per console. You have to use freeboot feature to get these. Maybe something also can be found into kv.bin that can be decripted by CPU key (again freeboot require). Maybe anyone else know what really ment by "retail system encryption keys". Good luck.

    What exactly are you trying to do? Maybe it wants you to CON sign it? IDK :/

    No, these keys are not CPU and DVD. These 'retail system encryption' keys described, for example, in some Xecuter Fusion dashboard option:

    – Switch between retail or devkit system encryption (Retail Keys added in to allow use of anything that would work on a retail console. This includes hardware and software. Games like rockband require the retail keys to work. This was a problem in the past and therefore rockband was unable to be "backed up". This also allows the user to use retail and XDK user profiles. Making it convenient instead of having to resign a profile to work with dev or vice versa. Your profiles will also get resigned but its resigned with retail keys.)

    personally, I would just stop reading about fusion now and forget the idea, it is so far outdated you will not be able to play games newer than 2013, also it is what I would consider barely stable as there was never anything beyond a beta to my knowledge, this goes for development purposes as well, you dont need the newest kernel update, but something newer than 2013 would be the preference of most devs working with 360 projects.

    All in all, outside of curiosity these keys mean little to the average modified console user as they are not something the user needs to deal with.

    RGLoader also does all this patching to allow most "retail" functions while still running development kernel.

    this is one of the RGLoader patches, all of which can be found in certain versions of program.
    Code:
    # ============================================================================
    #     Enable retail xex decryption
    # ============================================================================
        KMAKEPATCH 0x80029C4C
    0:
        b       0x10   #;//skip signature check for retail consoles. (allow patched xex)
    9:
        KMAKEPATCH 0x80029C70
    0:
        li      %r4,  0xF0   #;//patch XexAes key to retail one at 0xF0
    9:
    
    
    


    It's not that fusion was bad, but as I said it's severely out dated, and my advice to anyone giving it a go is to have a hardware flasher (nand-x etc) handy just in case ;)

    I agree. Fusion just didn't get the support that RgLoader did. Much better in MHO

    Are there any rgloader builds newer then version 510 available?

    Currently still using the 300 version on my xenon, as that was the only one I could get working :/

    I dont care about online things, just too clear that out.

    Bummer.

    As with that version, it boots up 1 time, after a shutdown or restart, it will only show a black screen

    The retail system encryption keys you are mentioning are the ones used to deal with retail signed/encrypted content versus development signed/encrypted content. It's been awhile since I messed around with this but you can patch it in to the SD (HV/Kernel) and the RGLoader patches show you examples of how this can be done on older dashes.

    You might be able to do this on the fly but I'm fairly sure it needs to be done on boot....which if you are using a development console is going to require a shadowboot file. I know there is some info on those here and someone even released some code on github with their research.

    TLDR; You need to create a shadowboot file with the correct patches for the dash revision you are on - you can find examples of the patches in RGLoader.
