[lostsandGOD]

yo thank for the video did it last night and it work let you use a flat head to remove the screws is was so ez.

[xDIRTYSOUTHx]

@lostsandGOD glad i was some help.

[TehRecluse]

@xDIRTYSOUTHx I'm trying to get one stuck in the controller, any ideas? as it's in a hole on the controllers.

[xDIRTYSOUTHx]

@TehRecluse try the rubber band trick. put a thick rubberband in the hole and use your torx to remove it..I had the same issue with a controller a while back and it worked

[TehRecluse]

@xDIRTYSOUTHx I ended up supergluing the torx to the screw very carefully and waited for it to dry then got it undone that way, thanks anyway though :)

[xDIRTYSOUTHx]

@TehRecluse lol NICE! I've tried that in the past for another project but I think the super glue i was using was expired or something..glad you got it taken care of!

[xDIRTYSOUTHx]

@uCrazYSk8T3R you sound scared..

[BEARxSKILLS]

@uCrazYSk8T3R ur not a man XD

[Digitalhunny]

@uCrazYSk8T3R It's not a saw. Dermal duh! If you don't know the simple things don't touch your Xbox 360. Go buy a new one. Stay safe.

@Digitalhunny If you don't know how to spell, don't comment. Dremel. Duh!

[mitchell3cowan2]

coz i have a dremel tool and anything :/

[Kingofkings920]

These dremel tools really work"....They range from 36.dollars to 100"

yeah it's kinda expensive, but it's better then buying a new xbox"

[shinobimanexe]

so im trying to do the peny trick on my 360 and a couple of outer T9 sized screws are stripped, some of them are like in a hole you know, so how would i repair that?

[xDIRTYSOUTHx]

@shinobimanexe First off but a repair kit off ebay. They sell for about $3 and come with washers, plastic spacers, and thermal grease. You might be able to try the rubberband trick. place a rubberband in the hole or on top of the screw and then try and slowly torx it out. If its not a motherboard screw then just cut the metal around the screw.

[shinobimanexe]

@xDIRTYSOUTHx thank you i will take a crack at that now, i already have most of the supplies i need, i just need to get familiar with my dremel ha ha

[0611930024838]

Same here, my xbox came with those screw stripped when it was returned from Microsoft, MUTHA FUCKARS

[mianotti]

those faggs in microsoft stripped mines... i got the rig of death, this time i oppend it myself becouse i was out of warranty and guess what, teh idots had stripped them bad! BASTARDS

[martyboy270]

crap! i am almost done opening and i get to these 6 and now i cant get them out (don't have proper screw driver or a power tool)

[anikidwolfy]

this is the biggest problem because people do not use the exact tool. "a bad workman always blames the equipment"

[mianotti]

@anikidwolfy i bought one and dosent even work...

[trigun989]

how can i do this for an iphone? i stripped the bottom screws trying to open it up

[xDIRTYSOUTHx]

@trigun989 you can try and use the rubberband trick. place one over the screw while trying to remove it. It might get some grip.

[Marialonzo]

Just a dremel rotary tool? I'm searching up on Sears and Home Depot and I find all sorts of kits and stuff. As long as it's a dremel rotary tool, it's fine, right? Sorry. Never heard of a dremel tool until I saw this vid, and this method of removing stripped screws seems to be the cheapest and easy to do and I would like to do it this way.

[xDIRTYSOUTHx]

@Marialonzo Dremel is a company that makes rotary tools.

[Marialonzo]

@xDIRTYSOUTHx Yeah I know. I got it and removed my screws. Thanks. :D

[ajw321]

omg thoes screws are a pain in the ass i have 1 left and cant get it out

[xDIRTYSOUTHx]

@ajw321 I had 2 of them get stripped so i had to cut them to get out.

[sonicfan7]

Yer, i'd want to have my xbox back-sendable lol.....

[xDIRTYSOUTHx]

@sonicfan7

lol yeah i sent in 3 boxes before i got tired of microsoft's shit. I just started fixing the issues myself.

[ModThatXbox360]

Nice
