Hello I hope I get a reply since xbox 360 is a old console now, I wanted to update my xbox 360 dashboard to the latest version, I had seen a YouTube video about it and it seemed simple so I downloaded the update and put it on my USB, I restarted the console and no update icon would pop up then I moved the $SystemFolder file onto XeXMenu into the HDD folder, I restarted the console and this time the update icon did pop up, I pressed update and it would keep giving error code after several tries I just pressed update later and tried to play a game but then the game would say that the dashboard needs to be updated for the game to be played I again kept trying but the error code would come up whenever I tried to update. Please help I really can't afford a repair and I definitely can't afford to tell my parents
Updating your Jtag with normal system updates is a good way to brick it. What happens when you power the Xbox 360 on with the eject button? does it load Xell or to the Dashboard as normal. Can you still load any homebrew apps such as XEX Menu after trying to update the 360?
When I press the eject button xell reloaded does work but xexmenu doesn't it asks me to update before I can use it
You can try updating the 360 as per here and flash the update with Xell: Xbox 360 Jtag or RGH Hack Easy Update to Dashboard 17502 with XeBuild GUI its not the latest dashboard but will play all the games.
The guide you sent me requires a file manager but literally anything I try to open on my xbox asks me to update before I can use it so how do I use the nandflasher without xexmenu
Power the console on with the eject button, Xell should load. Ensure the network cable it connected, then you should see an ip address in the network config: Using your web browser on your PC go to http://192.168.1.99 or what ever your consoles ip address is, you should be able to download your "raw flash" from the console. Use the raw_flash to build a new nand as per the tutorial I linked to above. When it comes to flashing you will also have to do this from Xell, which is detailed on the tutorial under "RGH Xbox 360 Nand Flashing". Hopefully that should get the Xbox back up and working.
When I enter the network config address it says on Google "website is unreachable" my network config is 192.168.1.99
You need to enter the IP address your Xbox 360 has on your own network, so it must be connected to your router with a network cable.
I connected my xbox 360 to my WiFi router using ethernet cable and entered the address into chrome but it still says that this website is unreachable
What is your PC's local IP address? You can find this out by typing ipconfig /all in command prompt, will probably show as IPV4 address.
Also I've noticed when I turn on my xbox with eject button with network cable plugged in the light on LAN1 on my router lights up meaning that the cable is working but when I type arp -a on command prompt it doesn't show the ip the xbox has
Nope. I also tried booting xbox normally and set network configuration and I set it to automatic it then it gave a different network config on xell which is 192.168.1.8 instead of what was showing up early which was 192.168.1.99
Another thing I didn't add before it also says on xell at the bottom looking for xenon.elf but it says it can't find it, could that be because i deleted xexmenu? I think I've really ruined my xbox mate
