I was coming on here to ask the same question as I've read of a lot of people who have been on 1.4 with no problems.  Perhaps it hasn't caught up to them but it'd be good to know.

Hey, you aren't alone. I'm thinking of getting a used 360 and flashing it with 1.41 non stealth revision (using only backups I ripped from my own retail games). I thought about it and it makes sense, the stealth check of the ixtreme firmware while a backup is inserted would cause a very slight, probably imperceptible delay between timing of the usual instructions of the firmware. While I agree with most that Microsoft can't directly read the firmware, it's probably easy for them to detect these patterns and flag accordingly. I believe is probably the biggest factor to getting flagt3e/banned along with improper rips and incorrect usage of ABGX.

The problem is, I'm not sure how true "non stealth" is to ts name. It's probably a lot better than the insane amount of checking the later firmware does though.

From what I've been reading those with the non-stealth firmware have been running just fine.

I was actually coming to make a post asking about it. Your post is similar but I'm wondering specifically about the non-stealth.

I was also wondering if the non-stealth will let you boot any wave disc?
