Update failed, stuck in a loop

Hi there,

I don't think you will get an answer here other then you should request a repair to get the console fixed.

For the main reason that system tampering is not allowed and requesting a way to flash or reset a console back to it's defaults when the console doesn't even start up succesfully might be considered as system tampering.

There is a way to roll back an update but that requires that the system starts succesfully

Here's the button combination for rolling back the update:

On your console, go to Settings hub, and then select System.

Select Storage.

On your controller, press the following button sequence:

1.Press the left bumper.

2.Press the right bumper.

3.Press the X button.

4.Press the left bumper.

5.Press the right bumper.

6.Press the X button.

the only supported fix for this is to send it in to MS. However, if the console has been tampered with, I am not sure if they will touch it.

There are other ways around this, however they all require you to breach the terms of use, as well as knowledge as to what the original DVD manufacturer and model # of the DVD was in there when the console was new (for example: Samsung model #xxx).



My recommendation is to try to take it up with the person you bought it with. I know that'll probably be difficult.

I'm not sure if it's possible. It certainly can't be discussed on this forum.

Greetings, Pegasus. Thanks for bringing your question to the forums. As Tgeekster mentioned, you'll need to get in touch with phone support for your region about this. However, out of curiosity, what type of console are you referring to and where did you
purchase it from originally? Was it an official retailer? Thanks in advance!

I bought the 360 off of craigslist after my original got rrod so I have no idea whats been done to the console. I just popped the faceplate off and it seems that the warranty sticker has been removed so I'm assuming that the original owner has tampered with
it. Does this mean that I know have a large paper weight?
