    How do I know if an Xbox is modified


    I've repaired a a RROD faulty old white xbox 360 - but I'm concerned as the whether it is modified?

    The machine has been repaired before (or attempted to be repaired)

    I don't want to risk my profile being banned because of a second hand console.

    Can anyone advise?

    Thank you

    :)

    why i have banned How do I know if an Xbox is modified :(

    "The console is modified."

    Now, he is saying that my Xbox Console is modified. Now if it was a software mod, he would have said "Your consoles software is modified". He specifically said the CONSOLE is modified.

    Now if I did a soft mod, then I would have something a little off with lets say my games, avatar, gt or something like that.

    Also you know what is pretty interesting is how only the 1st and 2nd edition xboxs are getting banned. And whats even more strange is that Gamestop stopped carrying the old edition 360.

    How do I know if an Xbox is modified

    Do you have any reason to believe it's modified? Is there anything different about it? Usually if it's been repaired before it doesn't mean that it's necessarily been modified. Try using the Xbox without signing in to your account and see f anything is strange
    about it.

    Technically speaking a non-authorized repair (a.k.a. what you did) of the console can get the console and all profiles attached to it banned regardless of if it was modified or not.

    Really? wow... the console was destined for the dustbin... shame to be wasteful

    The console was manufactured in 2007 and uses the old dashboard.

    I'll update it and see how things look before using a paid profile on it.

    Section 1.9 of the Terms of Usage agreement:
    There's
    no real way to remotely detect an unauthorized repair--except for you saying you performed one--as far as I know but yes, technically, they could ban the console.

    yes you can get banned for breaking the terms of use for opening it but i dont think there is a way they will know its been opened unless you hacked the console and my friend fixed the rrod and he is still using his xbox online today
