    DevKit Profile Picture


    Hey everybody! I have a question here that needs to be clarified.

    Earlier today I saw an old forum post about being able to access some developer settings through a weird trick, and being as curious as I am I decided to give it a shot. Going into the Xbox One’s settings app, and going down to console info, followed by
    pressing the button combination ‘LB RB LT RT’ presents you with a few options such as changing the console Sandbox ID.

    I changed my Sandbox ID from ‘RETAIL’ to ‘XDKS.1’ as I saw in the forum I mentioned that I was reading up on. Upon restarting my console and going into the profile picture settings, I had one new icon available: a basic image with a black background with
    the Xbox One wording and logo.

    I selected this image as my profile picture as it was the whole reason I had done all of this in the first place, and then exited. I did everything again, but changed my Sandbox ID back to ‘RETAIL’ and then restarted my console. Everything is obviously working
    fine without any problems now that I’ve changed it back to it’s default Sandbox ID, but here’s where my question comes in:

    I have only ever seen this profile picture associated with either Xbox employee or staff accounts, and as cool as it is I would like to know if I am breaking any rules or risking any sort of ban/suspension by having this as my profile picture. The picture
    clearly does not go against the Xbox Code of Conduct, and neither do accessing Developer Settings, but I would still like to double check just to be sure.

    Thanks in advance!

    :)

    You should be totally fine as long as the image doesn't break any rules.

    Hey and welcome,

    i think you shouldn't have any problems with that. Because you can also create custom profile pictures and as long as the picture does not offend or hurt anyone, you are also not violating any guidelines!

    Best regards

    You should be fine as there's not a whole lot you can do in 'dev mode' with out actually purchasing the developer subscription and downloading the related app for it. In Dev Mode on a retail console without the app and register subscription account to develop
    software, and just in general, you can't play retail games at all. So with out the requisite account and software there's really no point or issue in putting your console into said dev mode.

    You can learn more about it here if its something that seriously intrigues you or is something you may actually be interested in.

    Do I have to purchase a developer account separately if I receive an Xbox devkit?

    I have an Xbox devkit, but I don't have a developer account.

    Could you tell me where I can inquire about devkit?
