How to Un-corrupt an Xbox 360 Profile, or Gamesave from a Banned Xbox 360
Tutorial by zBackslash of HackForums.Net
Once you are banned from Xbox live if you use that banned console to play games and you earn achievements or do anything where the Xbox writes to your data/profile, it will add a "FFFFF" String to your Profile which corrupts it which renders it useless to your good LIVE enabled Xbox 360. In doing this though you lose any achievements you received on the banned box. There is a way to un-corrupt the profile and keep your achievements or progress.
Things Needed:
- XSata or some sort of transfer kit. (Use Google to find a good one.)
- CON Flag Remover - A program which removes the "FFFFF" String from your profile which "un-corrupts" it.
- Xplorer360 Xtreme - To browse files on your HDD.
- Hash Block Calculator - To resign and rehash your Hash blocks of yours profile.
Step 1:
Make a backup of your profile on your Memory Card or desktop to have just in case. Use Step to do so.
Connect your hard drive to your PC through the XSata or Transfer Kit
Open Xplorer360. Click Drive > Open > Hard drive or Memory Card.
Select Partition 3, then expand Content
Under this will be many folders Starting with E. Find the folder nearest the top, which is the one that was created first, most likely yours.
Expand your E folder, FFFE07D1, then 000100000
Now you will see you Profile file
Drag this file onto your desktop or any where you can find it.
Step 2:
Open the CON Flag Remover program
Click Open, and browse for the profile profile you just extracted from your HDD using Xplorer360.
Click on Remove Flags
Step 3:
Open up the Xbox 360 Hash Block Calculator program
Click on File > Open
Open the profile you just opened with CON Flag Remover
Click on Tools > Calculate Hash Blocks
Step 4:
Go to Xplorer 360 again and find where you extracted your profile, just drop the new one that is uncorrupted into that spot and click yes for overwriting the old one. Disconnect hard drive from PC and reconnect to Xbox.
This has to be done each time hard drive is connected to a banned console. Due to the content becoming corrupted each time.
