360 stuck on sign in/download

TBell6408 · Jun 11, 2020

Hi,

I recently purchased a second hand 360 and I am struggling to log into xbox live.

It downloads my profile fine, pops up st the bottom saying I've logged in but it hasn't logged in and gets stuck on the password screen the white circle just keeps going round in circles.

I've reformatted the HDD, cleared my cache, deleted the profiles, completed a factory, reset my modem and rebooted the console number times.

I'm pulling my hair out, please help.

Attached screen dump for reference.

:)

That's after you enter the password or before? And are you using the App Password and not your account password?

Dude i got it fixed. Follow these steps..

With your security proofs being updated, let's focus on the next steps: Delete Profile Only from the Xbox storage device, clear system cache (three times in a row) and finally, recover your profile from LIVE.

How to delete Xbox LIVE profile safely

Before you delete your profile you have to know the username and password for your Microsoft account that is associated with your profile.

Go to Settings, and then select System.
Select Storage.
Select All Devices.
Select Gamer Profiles.
Select the gamertag that you want to delete.
Select Delete.
Select Delete Profile Only. This deletes the profile but leaves saved games and achievements.

Clear Xbox system cache (3 times in a row)

Press the Guide button on your controller, go to Settings, and select System Settings.
Select Storage or Memory.
Highlight any storage device, and then press Y on your controller.
Select Clear System Cache.
Important: Clear your Xbox system cache 3 times in row.

Restart your console.

Download Xbox LIVE profile.

Press the Xbox Guide button on your controller (large X button in the center of your controller).
Select Download Profile.
Enter the Microsoft account associated with your Xbox LIVE gamertag.
Enter your Microsoft account password.

Hi PalmettoBling,

I do have 2FA, I have recently updated my mobile number but it is in place.
