LISTEN UP

THIS IS NOT A THEORY, IT WORKED!

I was banned from xbl when i got halo2, i worked out how to get it back. (at least this worked for me)

what you need:
-copy of slayers 2.6
-an unbanned eeprom

Make sure you have an unbaned eeprom in your xbox, make sure, or else this %100 wont work.
Slip in your slayers disk, and go into "APPS/UPGRADES/LOCK/FORMAT" under that go into "INST/UPG XBMC (P), M$DASH, APPS & EVOX +395" go to the one second from the bottom, which is named "Inst/Restore M$ Dash 185ead00 5960 on (C:)" execute this.

What this does is that it wipes everythin on your C drive and rebuilds it from the old 185ead00 5960 dash thats stored on the disk. All your modded dashes will be gone, but mabey excess files in the C: drive is what HALO 2 is looking for

THANKYOU SO MUCH SLAYER!!!  laugh.gif   biggrin.gif

hope it works for you too!

If you changed your EEPROM, but not your HDD, you will probably be banned within a few days.

Well I just got banned.
XBOX 1.0
XeniumICE.
iND-Bios now, was X2 4981 for a while.
I've always had the stealth install (everything non-stock on F:\), however indbios doesn't allow this 100%, it looks for the config file on C:\ (really should change that, whoever makes ind).


I bought it used in August. Went on live stock.
added chip. went on live a cpoule of days.
added a 250GB HD, went on live.
changed mobo/eeprom and to 160GB hd, went on live w/ the same account.
Didn't go on live much. Went on tuesday to check if I was banned after reading all this, was good.

Banned as of 10minutes ago.


I have a number of fresh HDs, but no fresh eeprom. If I can get an eeprom, I'll switch out HDs and eeprom and go on w/ same gamertag to check the flagging/banning of GamerTags. However, sicne I dont have any free trials, I can't test the all new gamertag.

If anyone can supply me with a new eeprom and/or free trial, I'll setup a new HD and eeprom and gamertag to help confirm/bust this theory.

PM me.

I've changed my eeprom about 5 times before, if a missmatch in changing an eeprom is the case, they would be right on top of me right now.

leadhead-

Did you even read this thread? If you did, you would know that 90% of the people who just updated their EEPROM were BANNED again within 72 hours.

If this did infact work for you, fine. But this doesnt work for most people anymore.

I know from experience. beerchug.gif

dry.gif ..Why only Halo 2 which already caused grate damages for all of us whereas a global upgrade should have grater impact ? Is halo 2 a first test ?

I think that all futur xbl games will come with this ban feature. MS is just waiting for halo2 ban statistics to launch the secound step

Well I don't know if you played it or not yet, but when you first put in Halo 2, it FORCES you to update XBL. (at least it did for me) So maybe that's just their vessel for pushing you to update...

Somehow I am still not banned from XBL.

A question to all of you: did you play the original Halo2 BEFORE you got banned?

I want to buy Halo2 and play it online. But I hear that you then are forced to update the MS dashboard. Just want to know for sure that I'll not be banned when buying/playing the original Halo2.

How can you tell which Live version you have on the Xbox?

Not sure how to check the Live version on your XBOX.
But when you sign on, it automatically updates to the latest version.
And as far as I can tell, most people being banned with Halo2 have large HD's.
The only way I got around this problem was to update my EEPROM and use an completely stock HD, files and all. I just turn my chip off and install the retail HD. A big pain in the ass, but I get to play HALO2 online, so I aint complaining. I'm just gonna pick me up an ugly-ass Xtender case. sad.gif  Got no choice.

I'm not sure on the version either.
But like I mentioned before, as soon as I signed onto XBL with Halo 2, it forced me to update, and the next step was to ban me.
So like someone else mentioned, it seems that it really is the game that's making all of us with larger  hard drives get banned.
