Confirmed Method Of Banning
« Reply #315 on: December 13, 2004, 03:50:00 PM »

Ive been running through a game exploit for a long time.  I finally got past that stage to a font exploit, never got banned from Xbox Live, and I decided to take that off because I was afraid of clock loop.  So then I got an audio exploit, never got banned.  Now I have a Xbox Live tab exploit, with bert.xtf and ernie.xtf on C partion.  The rest of the fiiles are on E partion.  I also have Black Arrow copied to my E partion because I was trying to hack it so I could put a remote charge anywhere (like walls  biggrin.gif ), but didnt work.  I still have all those hacked files, and never got banned from Xbox Live.  Well....my first Xbox got banned for no reason, and MS just blew me off like a bitch.  But since I have been softmodding, I have NEVER been ban.  Ive gotten other peoples Xbox's softmodded, and only 1 or 2 of them have been ban from careless mistakes.  But I know for sure they arnt doing a harddrive scan for "hacks" at all.  They may be looking for a G partion (I have an F partion).  I still think they are doing a mod chip scan!

Well...one thing...its called "marriage theory" for a reason. "Theory" means...

No Shit Sherlock.  That's why I am stating reasons why it may not be accurate.

Also, did you put your EEPROM and shit on your larger harddrive?

Lol.  Dude, it's obvious you don't know what you are talking about.

QUOTE (Digital Marine @ Dec 11 2004, 01:03 AM)
And I thought you could change your harddrive serial number using Config Magic.

Uh...no.  That info is stored in the HD firmware.

QUOTE (Digital Marine @ Dec 11 2004, 01:03 AM)
Ive only used Config Magic once and I forgot to lock my harddrive, so I ended up with a fucked harddrive (I have no mod chip).

Your harddrive would be fine then.  Reformat it and use it for something else.  OR, if you were smart enough to backup your EEPROM, then you could use LiveInfo to generate the correct password and relock it.

if you were to buy another Xbox just for the hell of it. Never got banned at all, and you transfer your account over to your new Xbox via memory card. Then you log in, then according to the marrage theory, wouldnt you get banned because its not the same EEPROM and/or harddrive serial?

It's entirely clear you don't even understand the Marriage Theory.  You're GamerTag isn't linked to the HD or the EEPROM.  You can move that around all you want.

Also, CompMAS2, im 100% sure they dont do harddrive scans.  Ive had shit all over my harddrive and never been ban for it.  And they cant scan for F and G partions because their bios doesnt support F and G.  Ive used exploits with regular MS bios, and you cant use F partion.  Then I loaded the M8 bios and I could use F just fine.

As long as my HDD is locked and my modchip is disabled I dont get banned... As for the X3 maybe its slightly flawed for use with xbox live, like when Xbox Live does its little scan the chip thinks its being turned on... and since the X2 doesnt have the backup mode theres no problem....

I also have a friend running the Xenium and he hasnt been banned...

I hope this helps...

I also have another question, i little off topic but: where are the files contianing your xbox live information located on the HDD.. I spent hours searching for it and going through all the scripts but i couldnt find the correct file... If you know please let me know....

Thank YOu,
Mantralapse

At the risk of sounding beyond newbish, Digital Marine, did you upload a new c:\xodash\xonlinedash.xbe or what are you xbe are you exploiting with the live tab?  I'm assuming that you are using the commonly called double dash but through my research and playing with it i didn't fine any mention of renaming the standard xtf files, did you use a different exploit and i'm way off base in my assumtion.  Also, pardon my ignorance, doesn't XBL force a dash update when you connect thereby overwritting the 4920 dash?  Is there a range of dash revisions that live will accept and not update?  Thanks all.

Xprimex, how did you get banned?
Mantralapse, XBL logs some XBL information in E:\CACHE, but not too sure where your account is stored.
DerangedPrometheus, I just use the 4920 dashboard all the way.  I figured the xonlinedash.xbe loads off C:\fonts\Xbox.xtf and XBox Book.xtf.  So I downloaded some font files (I think it was frenix), and put them on C:\fonts.  I hexed edited ernie.xtf, and it was looking for Xbox.bak and XBox Book.bak, so I renamed those.  Then everything went fine.  So when I click the Xbox Live tab (renamed to "Evox Dash"), it loads the bert.xtf and ernie.xtf, then it loads the M8 bios with Evox.  From there im free to do just about anything I wish.

*EDIT*
I mixed a shit load of files to work correctly

Don't take it personally.  I don't like anyone. mad.gif

I'd be really shocked if M$ was scanning files.  I think that's sort of an invasion of privacy, and I can't imagine that they would blatently break the law.  Although, it may be true that they run a checksum on the xboxdash.xbe to make sure it is legit.
I have yet to accept any theory that's been proposed yet.  I know what I've seen thru my tests and nothing seems to agree with what has been stated.
BUT, Angerwound is convincingly persistant that it's possible to play live from a large HD.  AND I've seen a box I modded (with a 120GB) for a friend work on Live so far.  I've reflashed my eeprom with a spanking new one, and signed up with XBL under a new GT.  We'll see if my box (with 250GB) is banned tomorrow....  Probably will be be.

I have a 1.6 xbox that as soon as I bought it I modded it with a Xenium ICE and replaced the hardisk. I have been playing on live fine, until recently.

The other day I played on live with the modchip in the Retail Kernel mode (still power to the chip, but it lets the stock LPC bios run as if the chip was off, I have done this for months with no issues) and it worked fine, played 5 hours or so.

Then yesterday I go to sign on and I am banned. I really think that there is some possible LPC bus scanning going on, because this is the only hardisk the xbox has ever seen (i didn't even turn it on with the old one in there). I also think that only the newer always-on chips are effected.

I just read an article on http://news.techwhac.../halo-2-pirates about the halo 2 bannings....and it occured to me that what if MS is checking hard drives for illegal copies of halo 2 if they see that automatically your banned? but then I thought im sure not all the people banned had a pirated version...did they?
