Maybe someone can help me because when I turn my xbox on I get RROD but the fans don't even turn on and it just sits there like a fucking retard with a constant RROD, it doesn't even flash. If it's any help, the only the part of the light-up circle that doesn't light up is the top right one (the one that would show controller two is connected), I'm not sure if this means anything but I'm confused as fuck.
This is for those that dont know. The RROD is when the motherboard overheat and ussualy melt. This can't be repaired with 3 towels. You need to replace the motherboard with a new one. Which is not so convenient. Or toherwise aend it to microsoft.
Just tried it and my Xbox 360 is up and working again! Even though I know this is a temporary repair (or then again, who knows), I want to thank the person who made this video. You saved me some money! lol
yeah i got RROD and i only put mine in the towel at my friends for like 5-10 mins then i put it in my bag and walked back home i plugged it in and it worked does that mean it's more likely to work permanently because it wont be getting so hot or is it still just as likely to last a day then shit out to RROD again? please respond thanks :]
i hope you all realize that by doing this it is damaging the gpu cpu and capacitors in the 360. To fix the rrod you need to open it up, carefully heat up the GPU with a heat gun, and lift the processor STRAIGHT UP off the board, then use a soldering gun with a small amount of LEADED solder on it to remove solder from the board and the gpu, then use a SMALL amount of flux to clean the board and GPU. then you place .6mm solder balls on the GPU's conductors (they have to be alligned perfectly!)....
@TheHaloForum Then you heat up the GPU a little before moving it to melt the solder in place (MAKE SURE NONE OF THE BALLS ARE TOUCHING EACHOTHER!!!) then when they're all locked in place, as best you can position the chip back the way it used to be, after that heat it up so that it reattaches to the board. when this is all done, reapply thermal paste (just a drop, too much is bad). And it should work again if done correctly. Now to assure it doesnt happen again you can apply the 12v fan mod.
PEOPLE!!! DO NOT FRIGGIN TRY THIS!!! THIS IS VERY STUPID ALL YOU ARE DOING IS DAMAGING YOUR GPU AND CPU! You need to reapply Arctic Silver 5 to the GPU and CPU, play it for maybe an hour or 2, let it cool down, then it will work. Once you clean and reapply the thermal paste games will freeze, HOWEVER after a few hours of gameplay and MANY hours of cool down time it will work like a charm! :3
The question is, does this work every time; and if it does, is it worth it? I know that RRoD is primarily caused by insufficient cooling, and extended gameplay. Cooling is a basic and highly integral part of any CPU based system, just like a car; If you dont cool the motor, it blows up. Whats the point in having a gaming console if you cant play games for an extended amount of time? I know that the Elite is better about this; but my suggestion would be a PS3.
@MCArchangel777 yeh your right it does work but after a while it stops working all together your better off replacing your heat sinks but u have to buy a little fix kit for it not sure how much there are thou
Heating it then cooling it back down doesn't really solve the problem. The solution is to turn off your Xbox 360, turn of the switch powering your Xbox 360, unplug the plug, leave the Xbox 360 away from heat and sunlight for half an hour and then put the plug back in, turn the switch on, turn the Xbox 360 on, then voila! Fixed! Well, i think. I'm sorry, I don't really know, my Xbox 360 i had for a full year and it never got the RROD at all. But in the end i sold it for a DSi... :'(
@tatortot174 Actually I'm glad I did now because if i do prefer handhelds over consoles now. I'm just different from everyone else. I prefer a DSi, A less powerful hardware than a crazy all-expensive console full of possibilities. Go f**k yourself. Don't mess with my decisions.
i did that but in less than an hour it got again and did it for my next 7 tries soo after that im like fuck it and took a pickaxe and smashed the shit out of it in front of my yard with a few neighbors watching XD
yes u fixed it. one problem ... no one try this. it temporarily fixes your problem after a few days or earlier your xbox will be permenently destroyed
@NIZDISDIK Dont get so butthurt, Are you mad because your friends are retarded a fuck?
Or that you cant build a strong enough counter argument? Dont reply with such things as "All my friends PS3 got ylod so it must be sonys fault because in no way shape or form could it be my friends inability to use or maintain technology."
@inutichow no... what pisses me off is replys like this ...."Because it seems you dont know anything," a counter argument to what you dipshit? i dont understand what the hell you are trying to say you uneducated fuck... but i get told i dont know anything.. when all i said to begin with was..."YEAH...everyone i know who has ps3 get s the ylod... repairs are costly....where microsoft repairs for free...." so what is your fucking point?
@inutichow lol..what stupid shit to say...you telling me that people go out and buy new a new ps3 and do shit like that? your retarded...of course that shit will cause malfunction. that would not be considered user error... just stupidity. i would like to know of one person who does shit like that. maybe people would do shit like that after ylod...but not before which would mean its a designer flaw. not user error. your just a dumbass and obviously dont know shit about anything.
@inutichow and how does microsoft cheat us? free repairs? microsoft points and free live when you get it back? sounds to me like good customer service.... even if the warranty is expired they repair and place a new one year warranty....where as ps3....you pay for repairs...most people just buy a new system because repairs cost just the same...... sounds like playstation cheats you more than xbox cheats us...go ahead...talk your shit... get mad you piece of shit....
@NIZDISDIK Herp Herp The error on the PS3 is human error. Thus its like dumping it in water.
Microsoft they designed the Xbox poorly. Thats why the first Xbox model caught on fire, And they didnt wanna spend the money to fix it 100% so now it just ruins your xbox.
@so...what are you trying to say? ps3 users are just stupid ? microsoft had poor design in the heatsink? which they designed a new console that have no problems? . ...which would mean ps3 users cheat themselves and microsoft cheats us. think i got it but Because it seems you dont know anything, im not sure what your trying to say. everyone ive seen with ylod had their console well ventilated and was well taken care of....
@NIZDISDIK Is there something wrong with you? Mental issue? YLOD is caused due to PS3 getting overheated and thereby causing the components to get detached. Much in the same way RROD is. But RROD is caused by Microsofts poor design. YLOD is caused by a human error(I have said this before.)-Owner of a PS3 since 2007-Owner of a Xbox well atleast before it got RROD so i just gave it to my cousin.
@inutichow what is your fuckin point dude? everyone knows both consoles have problems with overheating...its not user error you dumbfuck...it poor design on both consoles....only difference is microsoft repairs for free and places a warranty on repaired product.... playstation charges for repairs...so shut the fuck up...you keep repeating what my first comment was in different words... uneducated bitch
The flashing rings appear when u don't have the av cable connected, so all you did there was shorten'd the life of your shit x box even more! Fuck xbox name 1 thing that makes the xbox better than a ps3!!!!! Kind regards from an ex xbox owner!

@2zeee1 The flashing rings appear not only when the av cable isn't connected. It depends on the number of flashing lights. If there's four, there's indeed something wrong with the av cable, but when three lights flashing, the hardware is broken or something. Same with two or even one light
ummm i did it but it doesnt stay fixed for ever it worked for me like 4 days and it was over fuck xbax all bout ps3 baby yeaa!!!!! lol xbox is sumwat koo
yall could get the RROD and theres nothing wrongwtih your system. just unplug every thing out of everything the wall socket the brick and the console and plug tem back in tight.
Look people stop laying your xbox 360 horizontaly because it blocks the vents on the top beside the harddrive or stop bitching and get the slim of a ps3
@dcfire541 f**k you why would u get a ps3 slim when u can get a xbox 360 slim?the xbox 360 slim has no red lights so there would be no RRoD the closest thing u would get would probably be a GRoD (green ring of death) which will never happen
@dcfire541 f**k you why would u get a ps3 slim when u can get a xbox 360 slim?the xbox 360 slim has no red lights so there would be no RRoD the closest thing u would get would probably be a GRoD (green ring of death) which will never happen un less 4 people have their controllers attached and are playing a game
@bestboyxxxx thats a big misconseption just because it isnt 4 doesnt mean anything any 25% of the whole ring means something and 3 means that there is a **General hardware malfunction* as apposed to 1 red ring meaning**Hardware malfunction**
and also apparently if you have 1 red ring in section four which is called e 74 dont be a dumbass like me and waste 30 bucks plus shipping on the kit i spent a total of 60 $ cuz i chose the 1 day shipping and all you do is turn on ur 360 and before the red rings come up press the controller reset button or what ever its called up above where u turn on ur 360 and i did this twice before it started working like normal its a good thing the people that gave it to me for free thought it was broken :D
this will ruin ur xbox permanetly when you get the 3 red rings of death you have to replace something in your xbox 360 i forgot what its called i think its the gpu or whatever but you need special tools so instead of wasting money thinking your xbox aint replaceable and or sending it to microsoft and paying over 100 bucks if you dont have a warrent it is still better to do this search up red ring of death x clamp fix it will fix your xbox 360 for good and it only cost 30 or so money so good luck
Look at my video. It's way easier to fix your Xbox in my video than in this video, and without the chance of fucking up your 360!!!! :D lol Just click on my channel to watch it.
poeple DO NOT WRAP YOU XBOX WITH TOWELS.. that just overheats the system then later your xbox is not going to work anymore then u might need to take it to someone to repair it, fix it your self, or send it to microsoft to fix
The red ring of death is simply a solder connection that gets disconnected. The reason why for some people wrapping a towel over their Xbox 360 works is because it heats the system enough for the solder connection to reconnect.
Look at my vid. It's way easier to fix the RROD in my video than in this video, and theres no chance of fucking it up!!!! lol Just click on my channel to watch it.
Hey here's my way my m8 tested for me. CUT ur cock. Take out hard drive. Put ur cock where the hard drive gos. Put hard drive in. You'll notice the hard drives not the only hard thing to. Your a fag. I'm not doing that shit
ok. if you are too unskilled to reseat heatsinks (instruction are available here on youtube) and too cheap to pay a shop or someone on craigslist who does it (there are 2 of us in east idaho alone) then do the paperclip in the fan trick. it is still bad but it is much more precise. NEVER NEVER NEVER do the towel trick.
Way to fuck an X-box in the long run: Wrap it in towels and bake it.
It is easier to basically take it apart, remove the xclamps, clean off the heat sinks and the CPU's then re-apply thermal paste and put back together with screws. Should take no more than an hour, and you are not damaging any other parts inside the xbox.
You can do as ndogg360 has done, but I would recommend replacing the thermal paste for a much longer fix.
Id never wrap my xbox in towls. The best way to fix it is to replace the xclmaps that hold the heatsinks on with screws and washers. Then run the xbox without the fan in it until the 2 flashing red lights appear. Let it cool off then it works again. I fixed my friends xbox this way and its been going strong for about 7 months or so now.
actualy the Xclamp is a good thing, screws and washers cause flex. on the MoBo. the crappy thermal compound is the problem. I use my dremil tool abrasive discs to cut the hooks off the ends, bend the arms flat (because otherwise they apply too much pressure) and bend the very ends up just enough so when screwed down they are flat against the MoBo. tighten the screws just enough to pull the clamp to hte MoBo, not push on it anywhere but the center..
seriously, i mean wtf? who got the bright ass idea to burn your electronics? your not fixing it, your overriding the error by fucking it up MORE, so unless your some rich bitch who can afford to fuck your xbox, i wouldn't do it
this is weird and true i was playing halo 3 then my xbox turned of then i turned it back on then the RROD came on then i turned it back on and it WORKED???
I need some advice. As soon as I turn on my rrod console, it goes straight to rrod. It doesn't turn on or even attempt to. I have put thermal paste over the gpu thingy. If anybody has any suggestion, pm me please. Thanks and also please sub to my Youtube.
Either opt for an out-of-warranty exchange with Microsoft, where you may likely get a reconditioned Jasper or Opus board for a fee, or buy a new one.
With new consoles, the release of the Valhalla chipset in the newest generation of 360 consoles as well as the widespread availability of the Jasper chipset means that it doesn't make much sense now to waste any more time and money getting a broken Xenon, Zephyr or Falcon board running only to risk it going RRoD again down the road.
Cool for 4 days then RRoD again :( if u do this to much you will burn your chip and will not be fixable by microsoft unless they apploe a new chip, if ur warantie has ran out £95 thats all most the cost for a new one!
I hope you guys know that this ruins your xbox. After 3 times it pretty much ruins it forever. Check my channel for a fix that lasts and doesn't ruin your xbox forever.
i got mine 2day after 4 YEARS lol it was karma my mates were all talking about there rrod and i was like yehh miness is amazing i have it for 4 years and then BAM it broke FUKK u Karma
u should actually wait for it to turn on by herself

@bestboyxxxx thats a big misconseption just because it isnt 4 doesnt mean anything any 25% of the whole ring means something and 3 means that there is a **General hardware malfunction* as apposed to 1 red ring meaning**Hardware malfunction**
Jacob97501 1 year ago
and also apparently if you have 1 red ring in section four which is called e 74 dont be a dumbass like me and waste 30 bucks plus shipping on the kit i spent a total of 60 $ cuz i chose the 1 day shipping and all you do is turn on ur 360 and before the red rings come up press the controller reset button or what ever its called up above where u turn on ur 360 and i did this twice before it started working like normal its a good thing the people that gave it to me for free thought it was broken :D
TheJosh934 1 year ago
this will ruin ur xbox permanetly when you get the 3 red rings of death you have to replace something in your xbox 360 i forgot what its called i think its the gpu or whatever but you need special tools so instead of wasting money thinking your xbox aint replaceable and or sending it to microsoft and paying over 100 bucks if you dont have a warrent it is still better to do this search up red ring of death x clamp fix it will fix your xbox 360 for good and it only cost 30 or so money so good luck

poeple DO NOT WRAP YOU XBOX WITH TOWELS.. that just overheats the system then later your xbox is not going to work anymore then u might need to take it to someone to repair it, fix it your self, or send it to microsoft to fix
CallMeAcoustic 1 year ago
The red ring of death is simply a solder connection that gets disconnected. The reason why for some people wrapping a towel over their Xbox 360 works is because it heats the system enough for the solder connection to reconnect.

Come check out my idea on my video it has fixed the 0102 error on the gpu
My 360 is the first to incorporate a cpu heat sink with cooler from a pc, check out my proof of concept
btw i know this video is old but never do the towel trick to your 360 or any console
the trick will work maybe for like a few minutes but it will seriously damaged the SMD chips with warping and bowing

ok. if you are too unskilled to reseat heatsinks (instruction are available here on youtube) and too cheap to pay a shop or someone on craigslist who does it (there are 2 of us in east idaho alone) then do the paperclip in the fan trick. it is still bad but it is much more precise. NEVER NEVER NEVER do the towel trick.
TAPriceCTR 1 year ago
Way to fuck an X-box in the long run: Wrap it in towels and bake it.
It is easier to basically take it apart, remove the xclamps, clean off the heat sinks and the CPU's then re-apply thermal paste and put back together with screws. Should take no more than an hour, and you are not damaging any other parts inside the xbox.
You can do as ndogg360 has done, but I would recommend replacing the thermal paste for a much longer fix.

MrEvol94 1 year ago
Id never wrap my xbox in towls. The best way to fix it is to replace the xclmaps that hold the heatsinks on with screws and washers. Then run the xbox without the fan in it until the 2 flashing red lights appear. Let it cool off then it works again. I fixed my friends xbox this way and its been going strong for about 7 months or so now.
ndogg360 1 year ago
@ndogg360
actualy the Xclamp is a good thing, screws and washers cause flex. on the MoBo. the crappy thermal compound is the problem. I use my dremil tool abrasive discs to cut the hooks off the ends, bend the arms flat (because otherwise they apply too much pressure) and bend the very ends up just enough so when screwed down they are flat against the MoBo. tighten the screws just enough to pull the clamp to hte MoBo, not push on it anywhere but the center..

NRNiko 1 year ago
@NRNiko
Either opt for an out-of-warranty exchange with Microsoft, where you may likely get a reconditioned Jasper or Opus board for a fee, or buy a new one.
With new consoles, the release of the Valhalla chipset in the newest generation of 360 consoles as well as the widespread availability of the Jasper chipset means that it doesn't make much sense now to waste any more time and money getting a broken Xenon, Zephyr or Falcon board running only to risk it going RRoD again down the road.
