Update Failed! Please Help

Same thing happened to me, if you tried everything there is, time for a reflow or reball. A reflow fixed mine.

You reballed? You know thats like a $60-$100 to reball or to do it your self you need a reballing kit, plus a workstation. Reballing and reflowing is not the same thing you know. How did you reflow the console? Or Reball if you reballed?

I had a somewhat similar issue. someone gave me a 360 that failed during update (I beleave he turned it off during the update progress) and it would not longer boot properly. None of the tricks worked either (holding y, holding the sync button, etc.).

What I did was took a HD that had the latest dash on it (the dash he was updating to was about a version or 2 lower). Plugged it in, and the 360 seen the HD had a newer dash on it, and asked to update, which fixed the update error.

In your case I dont know if this will work or not, but it cant hurt to try.

Steve

You will need to download the CV (8955) update to a thumb drive and then it will work.

As the upgrade process has already started, you will need to complete it

Cheers
