    Xbox 360 s update loop


    few days ago i tried to turn on my 360s which i have neglected for quite sometimes only to discover that my main xbox live profile has gone missing. I tried to download the profile many times but each time it will end up in an error few second after it started.

    further i notice the problem got worst later. The 360s will prompt me to update to latest firmware everytime i turnon/restart even tho i already did (thru manual update by usb stick). However, even if i approve the update (thru live) request, the update
    went very slowly n my xbox will restart halfway downloading the patch. After the restart, it will prompt me to update again. my xbox effectively stuck in an "update loop". Meanwhile, kinect will have a blinking yellow light and appear to be not working.

    After doing some research i realise it could be the 250g hdd problem. I formatted the hdd but the problem remains. xbox in update loop.

    lastly i tried to remove the hdd, again put in the usb stick with latest firmware, partition part of it to be usable by xbox, update the system again. This time the update went smoothly, the kinect is revived, and i can download my xbox live profile successfully.

    i thought the problem is solved. I plug the 250g hdd back in, formatted it and removed cache, and transfer my live profile back to the hdd.

    At this stage i thought i hv solved the problem. I remove the usb stick n restart the system for the last time. However, when i boot up my xbox without the usb stick, the system prompt me to update again (duh) and i cant connect to live.

    but the strangest thing is that now if i boot up the xbox with the usb plugged in (and also hdd), there is no update prompt and i can login the hdd. i even installed a game on the hdd n it worked. But if i boot up with only hdd (without usb stick), update
    prompt willbe up n i cant login live.

    Anyone have any idea how i can run my xbox with only hdd and be able to login live?

    thanks

    :)

    Xbox 360 s update loop

    Hi there,

    I personally think it is the HDD that is causing the problem (specifically the section that holds certaing dashboard related information), the only way to find out is to try another official xbox 360 HDD to see if that solves the problem.

    If needed you can request a repair/replacement for the HDD here:

    Unable to startup Xbox One S

    Hi,

    My Xbox One S was unable to startup, so I tried to perform Offline System Update using USB drive.

    But during offline update using USB, step 1 and step 2 went successful. But during step 3 (42%), it goes into continuous loop of restarting and updating from (34% - 42%) and restarts and try again. This is in continuous loop.

    Please help what to do now.

    Thanks,
