in theory that works, but do you play your 360 everyday? i'd be very surprised if you didn't play your 360 and get banned before it was known around the scene that they flipped the switch to start detecting. i think your options are the following.

1. leave your 360 alone, no ban worries
2. flash your firmware, and play on live unbanned, and hope for the best if/when they start detecting firmware
3. get a 2nd 360 and have one modded, one retail for live
