Ok my new Elite was just banned, Xval said it was ok and I had not played since the latest bans started, but with all this waiting for a new firmware i decided i would check it out. So went on Live with no HDD attached and logged in with my profile from my Memory Unit and it was instant ban, I did not even boot a DVD.

I have read this thread and I am a little confused, as I am a bit of a noob. What i would like to know is, if i play Games using my profile on my MU on the Banned Console, when i put that MU onto my other consoles and use that profile, will all the saves on the HDD on the other console be corrupted or just the saves played on the Banned Console? Also will my Profile be corrupted on the other consoles after using it on the Banned Console? And I assume from reading this thread the new acheivements on the banned console would not be valid, is that right?

Any help would be much apprreciated as i dont want to screw my profile/gamertag, hope this is the right thread.

Thanks,
J

Ignore everything I said. I am banned. My brother messed around with Router configurations and the Access List was off. Meaning the IP address assigned to the modified XBOX went to LIVE for whatever reason. The access list wasn't on so My modified console went to LIVE.

So yeah, at least now I know why the profile and console ID said Banned.

In regards to my post a few posts up:

 I just tried a game quickly, I did not unlock any achievements, but I did save, and when i placed the MU into the other console my profile is corrupted and the saves on that hard drive are displaying as corrupted. I would not have even modded that console in the first place, if it was not for the disc scratching, and the fact that I have children, one of whom is autistic, as they often jump, like kids tend to do when excited, you get plenty of scratched discs and even the circles were the laser seems to have bounced off the disc i assume. Nice one M$ living up to their 'good' name. Oh well I guess I knew the risks involving Live and FW, but still after all the money M$ has made off me over the years it seems a little harsh, I could live with a modded console being banned, but this seems overkill and just makes them look like the grinch to my kids this Christmas.

I assume I can recover my profile on one of the other consoles from Live, from what i have read on these forums? is this right, as I have read of people having problems getting achievements back?

I do not post often so will take time out to thank XS and its members for all the help it offers, its been far more helpful that M$ has ever been to me.

In your case seems you are banned if you logged into XBOX Live and got the Instant Ban message, yeah any Hard drive or profile or game save is corrupt. Nothing you can do but take the your ban and move on.

I have to confirm if I'm really banned. I really really hope my XBOX Profile is the only thing that won't load or play on my modified console. This morning offline profiles were created, a game save was created. They were not corrupt. I was able to see them and copy them to my Legit XBOX.

I will confirm I hope my hard drive can still install games or add-ons like Forza 3 does.

 Tha's the thread I was searching for, very interesting one.

Here you have another scenario that I'll try to perform this same weekd [Happy New Year BTW].

1- 1st Xbox360, died 1year ago (RROD stuff), never been banned, DVD drive MS25 modded.
2- 2nd Xbox360, new, clean, Live gold activated, not modded. Liteon drive.

I'll try to spoof my LiteOn on my Old Ms25.
When done, I'll keep my xbox360 open forever, so when I'll need to play backups, I'll plug MS25 drive, unplug network.
To go to Live, I'll plug back my LiteOn, play and upload my games achievements and staff saved on the hard disk.

Is this already tested or duscussed on another thread?

So then that means, if you have a banned Xbox, then you should sell that xbox, buy 2 new xbox, use 1 harddrive, mod 1 of them xbox which you would only play single player games, get the achievements, and insert into the legit Xbox and that should update your achivements online.

I believe this is correct. Can anyone verify please?

This is correct, I've been doing this for awhile now on a jtagged and a legit console with no problems at all.
