    I've heard of hot swap glitches where you hover over a game and eject and do all this to play modded iso discs on an un-flashed Xbox. Is there still a glitch that works for this or am i gonna have to open my Xbox and really hot-swap?

    The only way to Hot Swap is to open the Xbox and have the top removed from the DVD drive

    you will have to separate the spindle from the top section of the drive as you would use this to hold the disc in whilst it is spinning
    Hot swapping is not advised as it can damage games an be rather tricky to do

    I suggest getting the drive flashed it is much easier and safer

    are you in the UK? I do flashing pretty cheap. ;)

    Wish I did... I have 6 xboxs 3 with disc drive issues 1 with RROD And one that I tried to flash but got lost and decided to stop... and one as my main.


    Does a flashed xbox get banned fast? Like whats the lifetime of a flashed xbox?

    Lol that's a shame because I also fix xbox 360 consoles to lol

    To be honest I have had a flashed Xbox for over a year now without issues and I mod games/chevos
    Most people I know have not been banned due to the cracked firmware rather than not patching their games correctly

    I also have friends that have had flashed Xbox's for years with no problems
    I am in no way saying it is not possible to get banned for using cracked FW but it is not as usual

    as long as you make sure all games are patched using ABGX you should be all good.

    Do you know what drive you have?

    I have 2 Hitachi and a toshiba and a slim/havent opened

    Idk what the other two are/They all have that open tray error and nothing works to fix them ive tried it all on all the boxes i feel like its such a waste just sitting here...

    I wish i was more experianced and or had the perfect tutorials on how to fix them but theres nothing that fully follows the way i do it.. haha

    I've been flashed for a while now and I haven't been caught. I mod games and everything. As long as you're careful you should be ok.
