Most likely, its the serial number of the unit.  I had an extra hard drive and I tried that but, of course, I was still banned.

I have faith that people will get this figure out.  Once it happens, I will use original firmware.

This might make me a hater, but I was glad that all of my neighbors were banned with me.

What exactly is there to acknowledge?  That a part somewhere on the Xbox 360 says whether your console is banned or not?  Isn't that obvious?

Not really much of a theory...

I am guessing here that the ban is not all on the console side. Yes they changed something on the console to make it so it reports banned.  But they most likely have your console serial number stored on the sever.  So even if it were possible to undo the ban on the console side the server would still have you flagged and just change it back.  At least I am guessing.

Well if we some how find the part of the console which stores the xbox360's ID/Serial Number then we can replace that

But that serial will be reported by the kernel.. which is unbroken and so far not hackable..

Think about it for a second !!! The xbox is a system of hard and software.. The system security does not allow the software to be adpated and the hardware is all reporting its hardware ID's and codes within the box (why you have to flash drive keys etc)..

Its hardly like theres an eeprom with system serial stored at address location xxx
