Easily update your Jtagged or RGH Xbox 360 to Kernel / Dashboard 14699 with XeBuild
- Thread starter InsaneNutter
- Start date
Are you trying to recover from a bad update? what can you actually do with your console at the moment?
If you can still boot in to an older dashboard just use Nandflasher 360 as instructed in the tutorial, and you should be able to update perfectly fine.
However if you can not boot xell or an older version of freeboot then you must flash with LTP or a USB nand flasher.

You probably do have Xell, it will not work if the 360 is connected to the TV with a HDMI cable, you need to use the VGA or component cable.
If you have the CPU key just follow this tutorial.
If you have the CPU key just follow this tutorial.
You boot Xell by powering the 360 on with the eject button just so you know.
Personal beauty need help, I'm trying to update my dash and the new hack tb.
I had my Nand nor Cpukey to and I could get the key booting Xell pressing the eject button and pick up the nand NAND Flasher 360, only when the NAND extract the name of my xbox appeared Unknown and had two bad blocks.
What should I do qdo the model does not appear on my xbox, which in this case is slim.

xbox deleted my update?
hey guys, ive got a rather strange issue here on my hands:
ive updated to 14699 a week or two ago, everything worked perfect etc.
today i signed on, no avatars, backgrounds, nothing?
kinect is no longer working and i'm very confused, its like something has deleted the update (i dont mess with system files, let alone delete anything, so not too sure here...)
i DID add a theme for freestyle dash, but i highly doubt that was the culprit.
even when i loaded freestyle dash, all my settings were changed back to the default theme
also i put the 14699 update folder back on my usb drive, and its not loading or telling me to upgrade?
anyone else seen this? please help thanks

Same thing happened to me. I have no idea what to do now. It wont show up for an update for me. I didn't install anything.
My HDD is FAT and I do have a JTAG
If you have Dashlaunch installed add noupdater = false to your launch.ini file and it will allow system updates to run, that's likely the problem.

Hi, I have attempted to update my console using this tut, everything seemed fine (followed all the steps and operations were successful), but now when I power up the console i wont boot in neither dash nor Xell (the green turns on but it wont go any further). My console is a phat elite with falcon processor modded with RGH.
Any help would be highly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Everything is alright, NAND Flasher 360 doesn't know about slims yet, however it works just fine with them. As for the bad blocks, they get remapped when you dump the nand, so you shouldn't worry. Just follow the tutuorial and you'll be ok.
EDIT: also, even you have a nand dump with bad blocks, xeBuild remaps them also, so there is really nothing to worry about.

Avatars and iXtreme LT
First off, excellent article. I was on 8955 before and needed to update. I thought it'd be painful but honestly, it went real smooth. I do have a question though. It was mentioned in the article that in order to get the avatars, one should first update to the new nand by following the directions and after doing so, download and run the official update so it will add the avatars. My question is once we finish updating the new NAND and are ready to run the official update, will the official update cause any issues with iXtreme LT+? For instance, will the 360 try to contact Microsoft to get my console banned or will it replace the iXtreme firmware? Thanks and again, excellent tutorial!
EDIT:
Well, I decided to try it and our discs still play so it doesn't do anything with the iXtreme firmware however, I cannot say whether or not it tries to contact Microsoft. I don't have it hooked up to the internet. If I were to guess, I'd say you'd be safe. That's just a guess though. {:-)

I have the same issue! I followed every step and all operations were successful and verified ok but after i plugged it back in it will not boot in any dashboard. Xell still works using the eject button, but that's about it. Please help me, how do i fix this? I have a Falcon v3 with RGH.
EDIT: I have restored the Nand i extracted to do the update through Xell but the console still will not boot to any dashboard, not even the xbox icon is showing up when i turn it on. Can anyone help?
That is an issue for the RGH consoles...And that is a wrong of the quide we never NEVER take a nand image with nandflasher360 because we need the original dump nand from the first time we put the freeboot
in other way the console will not open or get E71
The only way to recover is to put again a new Dash-freeboot...Don't worry the console it will recover but it need reprogramming

Hi, I followed your tut on how to update to 14699 and was successful. Thanks But when i installed dashlaunch it did not work i used my old ini, then i created a new one and also tried the sample but dashlaunch does not work. How do I fix it? I have also tried the xe build folder given in the dashlaunch download. All directories on the ini is also correct. please reply soon.
I need some help first off I'm new to this so please bear with me. ok here whats going on I'm have a hard time getting the Nand to dump on to the USB stick on about step 3. from the pictures shown when i push Dump Nand / Flash it should automatically down load the original Nand to the USB but it dose not do this. it takes me to the menu that says Hdd1, USB0, ect.. Im not sure what to do with this any help would be very much appreciated.
Just select USB0 and you can save the nand to the USB memory stick.
