i have heard many stories of people saying they are on 1.4 and are not banned.
The stealth checks are what is causing the banning{ not confirmed}
i just bought a pre NXE console that has never been modded.
i wondering who is still on 1.41? post here

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.

i mean i have heard people scatttered around the forum saying this,
but i thought id make it an own thread to get to the bottom of this.

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?
