What a stupid statement!
Moreso that you felt compelled to reply.
Or is it that you replied to the reply that someone posted. lol just saying this is a never ending cycle unless i declare im the biggest idiot here and no one else can continue this.

I'm also not banned (at least yet) i have 1.6 ben q
Hahah you got me! It's all in fun guys. I have not been banned yet but I knew the rules before entering the game. There must be a way microsoft is able to ping the drive.. or maybe if they "can't" ping the drive.. who knows.
Ping the drive? OMG.... do you even know what Ping means?

out of 10 or so friends , 3 have been banned. At least 10 of my customers whom I have modded have been banned. No rhyme or reason. Some have 1.51 some have 1.6 and none had 1.61 ( that were banned)
Seems that forza achievments might have been the cause. But who really knows ? All my boxes are clean *knock on wood*

Just The Facts.. after reading thread i am seeing that now one likes speculation so i will tell you my ban

Xbox - Original Day One AKA Old Yeller[]No Errors No RROD[]Hitachi FW:1.51
Played In Past Month - GTA IV, Boderlands, Forza 3, All Have Been Originals ( So i didn't play them early)( also i didn't play the backups just made them )
Using A Sata Kreon Drive XBC'd (Yes Proper Settings) waited until 100% green on ABGX360 ( Yes Proper Settings ) at 2:00pm Eastern Time got the kick offline while playing forza still rented copy. Called M$ they would not disclose why my console was banned, after prodding and listening to the guy read a script for five minutes i said.. "Listen stop reading the F'ing Script and tell me how to get online again, either i send you my box and you guys check it and unban me or i talk to a manager." he replied " sorry sir we will not accept your xbox console because it is not broken it is banned, if you want to play on xbox you will have to buy a new xbox." i asked for a manager and waited on hold for 30-40 mins (while playing forza 3 :) ) and then got hung up on. the big thing i got out of this was in there EULA they have the right to ban anyone for any reason off live, and they called my bluff.

Lastly i told my friends to disconnect from live immediatly and i will reflash with orig fw until this bru ha ha blows over... am i correct in assuming this or is it over for there consoles as well lol

ps it was good while it lasted :) ( pardon the spelling in a rush lol )

FTW... WTF... Uh ohhh

Sure I do, is it not within reason to suggest that the drive can be checked for firmware just as the firmware version on your pc's drive can be checked with the right tools? A ping is an acknowledgment request. Do we have to start a network 101 class for you?

After reding all of that, I decidec to log on live to check.

I was prompted the live update. Cancelled it and turned off the console.

I BELIEVE that if my console was offered the update, it means it's not banned. Right? Can you guys confirm me that?

I've had a customer of mine call and say that he got banned, He was playing left 4 dead and had halo 3 ODST but did I not even obtain it until weeks after its release. I also ran everything through abgx and have not played any of the titles that have given me an issue thus far (smackdown v raw 10) among a few. I'm pretty sure he hasn't played anything early as I'm his source.

5.
People who HAVEN'T played borderlands have been banned.

So everyone who got banned or who knows someone who is banned, is it both console and accounts that are getting banned or is it a mixture?

Legueux of gx-mod.com informed us that Zouzzz managed to unban his Xbox 360 console from LIVE on their forums by swapping the keyvault of his banned Xbox360 with the keyvault of another (not banned) Xbox 360.
However it's not something that everyone out there can do (yet) as you'll need your CPU key (via Hypervisor Exploit and if you got banned it means you're on the latest kernel so you'll need to perform the 'Timing Attack' to downgrade first). You'll also need all the tools to read/flash your Xbox 360 NAND (with the Infectus chip for example).

Here are the things he tried:
* downgrade banned 5787 PAL to 4532 NTSC U, updated again to 5787 via HD. Still banned.
* downgrade banned 5787 PAL to 1888 PAL, updated again to 5787 via HD. Still banned.
* Patched his original 1888 PAL dump with the last number of the Xbox 360 serial in the keyvault (location A0 to AB) changed. Still banned.
* Patched his original 1888 PAL dump with the all the numbers of the Xbox 360 serial in the keyvault changed. Still banned.
* Replaced the full keyvault in his original 1888 PAL dump of the banned console with a keyvault of an unbanned console. Connected to LIVE OK, updated to latest kernel online OK, still connects fine to LIVE.

*update* Zouzzz posted a video showing his banned console and how it'll connect fine to LIVE again after he flashes the console with his 1888 dump with patched keyvault of an unbanned console.

yea thats something we can all do easily. congrats now all the noobs are gonna be swarming around "tell me how to unban my console"
the money spent on infectus and the trouble doing it might as well just sell the banned one and get a new arcade

If you send me questions on Live about modding or anything related i will block you. Dont be an idiot.

Hmmmmm?

Has it been posted any where of people getting banned with the
"NME V2 chip?" Seems to me like its just those with flashed firmware's
and other cheaper mod chips.

Product Information states that its a ban proof chip.
Im not a xbox owner but I wont buy one until I know for sure if that particular chip performs as it says its supposed to.

So has any one here been banned with this chip or know of any 1 who was banned with it. You guys know it would help to post details of your modded box's that got banned as so we can compile relevant info for future endeavors of ban prevention.
