L.S.D Posted January 3, 2009 Author Posted January 3, 2009 Argghh, damn it, I have to find another console
Alpha Posted January 3, 2009 Posted January 3, 2009 Argghh, damn it, I have to find another console How do you know the people who work at those shops didn't replace your console with a banned console?
Devia Eleven Posted January 3, 2009 Posted January 3, 2009 What was the error code? Why did your XBOX RROD?
(XBOX) Posted January 3, 2009 Posted January 3, 2009 Yeah, thats what I was thinking what if they just kept & fixed your console "guts" swapped a banned console with yours and just replaced it with your shell....anyhow I sent mine to be fixed too...the same thing better not happen to me...having a banned 360 is kinda pointless.this is what they have posted on their repair site....."quote"We have seen it all! 1. Towel Trick = Maybe will work for 1 week then go back to the ROD.2. Overheating = Maybe will work for 1 week then go back to ROD.3. Screws + Nylon Washers = Maybe will work for 1-3 weeks then go back to ROD.4. Heatgun = Maybe will work for 2 weeks then go back to the ROD.5.Penny Trick=Gay/pointless I was wondering what other methods are there to fix a RRofD'd xbox? because the guy says he doesnt use the above methods posted.... what really sucks is I paid for 3 months of GOLD and then about 2 days after going on live my 360 dies out..so my subscriptions just going to waste .....uggghhhhhhhhh! flockin Bill Gates!

Then when I am getting back the machine, will check the serial again. Better than no checking at all....

I will vouch for the penny fix until the day I die, I did the pennys a year ago and that box is still going strong. the penny fix and x-clamp fix are the only 2 long term fixes out there. that dude is full of sh!t and most likely a scammer. LSD didn't you get banned with the rest of us before the RROD?
L.S.D Posted January 5, 2009 Author Posted January 5, 2009 LSD didn't you get banned with the rest of us before the RROD?I don't know. My LIVE expired just before the ban commenced. And my internet was down due to moving house so can't verify.
Inky Posted January 5, 2009 Posted January 5, 2009 my guess is you were then. do what I did and sell the one thats banned to someone who doesn't care. get a refurb and mad it again. I guess you can get new and fight with modding the new lite-on drive.

I guess you can get new and fight with modding the new lite-on drive.I am thinking of that, but BK did give me another idea yesterday. Buy the new Arcade version and keep both. SO if i want to go online, play the unmodded one with original games and play the modded one with pirated games The only problem is to cough up the money for a new one......

I know this is an old post, but did you check to see if the serial matches the one that is in the settings firmware? The serial number is in in a few places. The outer shell is pointless.
