The 360 is so much quieter and way smoother when the game is installed on the drive.
I went and got another console only because I want to install to the hard drive. The new GTA just can't run without an install it looks like crap. More than anything I hope someone figures out a way to restore hard drive functionality to already banned consoles.
I figured I would get banned eventually so I wasn't that shocked a week ago when I did get banned.
Ya but I meant you can still get online with a hacked unit. Modding is exclusively to booting backups. It is almost impossible/difficult to cheat on live like you would with Halo 2.
Take your ill-researched PS3 fanboyism somewhere else, please. It is borderline impossible to cheat on live, unless you're counting ingame glitches.
Live has not been hacked, the console itself has, allowing for the booting of backups. Do some research before you start bashing pirates. If they aren't turning a profit, the game is either bad or the economy. Developers have been turning profits, prime example is MW2. Not wasting news and forum space because nobody attempts resulting in actual game sales and profit for the developer so they don't give up like PSP and Xbox Hows the PS3 modding coming along anyway? You can find that post here: Unban your 8995 conosle
Use flashtool to patch nand dump with kv.bin from unbanned console.Ĭreate 1888 downgrader image (downgrader.bin) from your patched_kv.bin file.Īttach hdd + ethernet cable and boot console.Ĭonnect to live and update to 8955 dashboard.Ĭonsole is now fully working and unbanned! Use nandpro and dump nand from unbanned console.įlash xell and use jtag hack to obtain cpu key. We will update the site as more info is known.Īnother workaround was released by a user at XboxScene and goes as follows: There is no ETA on the new iXtreme LT firmware so don't ask, we only know that it is in the works. Lite-On and Hitachi 1.61 have been canceled and will be replaced by iXtreme LT instead. The idea behind this firmware is to remove as many differences between stock and hacked firmware as possible. There will be little (if any) security checks done on the discs by the firmware, meaning that running your backup images through abgx360 and ensuring that they are properly patched and verified will become even more important than it already has been. This firmware will have minimal patching, only what is required to allow backup discs to boot. Details of exactly what a ban means and what functionality is and isn't disabled by a ban can be found HERE.Ĭ4eva has announced that he is working on new firmware for all drives that will be called iXtreme LT (Lite Touch). The bans have spanned all drives and firmware revisions and the cause (or causes) is not known as of this writing. This weekend, 360mods is reporting that a possible workaround is in the works, that will help permanently banned users to access XBL again without having to buy a new console.Īs I'm sure all of you know by now, Microsoft has been actively banning users with modified consoles from Xbox Live for the past 1-2 weeks now.
