Yes, if you have flashed your drive, have the latest dash and insert Fab3 3 they will ban you offline. Unless you have a Samsung or Hitachi drive, they do not have ap2.5


So what to do if you have fable 3 installed on an old dash, and a liteon drive? I assume there will be a forced dash upgrade, at some point when installing a new game.

At least i think i have an old dash, as i am not yet banned... ofc that might change if i go online

Really? who told you this.

I tested this my self just now. Tried booting fable 3 on the new dash first online than offline and nothing happend.

I even restarted the xbox few times to see if it will do anything to my profile but it did nothing.

This xbox will never go online so I do not care much about it being banned Razz I use it now for testing to see when the ban hammer hits lol.

new dash updates were coming with old games as well... so unles you want to play kinect.. you can remove dash upgrades as i think they were doing that before...

Lets say I want to go to marketplace and download some dlcs.

I currently have 12581 beta in which I failed ap25 challange... lol but fableIII works like every other game after it gave me an error.
I checked with Xval and it says I failed ap25 challange.

In order to go online I have to inslall official dash... does it have the same security as 12581? Or now fableIII really wont work ?Laughing

And are they banning now??? Coul I just get alan wake dlc and run from marketplace?
(Or actually I would be happy if someone uploaded Crackdown1 keys to the city, Crackdown2 Keys to the city and Alan Wake free signal - these are all free anyway)

If you got the xbox in 2009/2010 it's liteon.

Before that it can be any of these:

people have tried that for years, no go. You are flagged long time ago, even if you just have a modified drive.

Its very random who survives. When I survived with my first console modded, I got it pretty late, september or something. And I played all games online, without checking iso etc. was not banned. Then I got banned the next year. After that I got a new one, was really carefull; got banned.

So well, crossing fingers this year Very Happy 2/3 of them are banned Very Happy
