  • anyone know if there is a permanent fix or about how much it cost to have a technician repair it?

  • Not a permanent fix.

  • i used to have ps3 but its shit boring crap online downloads fucking slow XBOX 360

    do whatever u want downloads are so fast and xbox rules and game adverts u see on tv its always shown on xbox 360 u dont even see a ps3 advert because it sucks my opinion because i had ps3 and i hate it XBOX 360 the Best

  • @mrchrismania yes I love game systems that get a red ring of death and stop working, and then it takes a month, and alot of money to repair. Yea! I also love paying for online play when the free psn is just fine.

  • dude idk whats wrong my xbox wont overheat when its in the towels! the first time i got the red ring my friend overheated it for me and now im trying to do it myself and its not working...please help me anyone..i would appreciate it.

  • love ur mega screen tv

  • Bull...this has been proven to FUCK up your Xbox 360. don't believe this guy...go to my channel for a PERMANENT Fix for RROD...

  • lol, imma give props to the guy who i learned this from.

    who did you learn it from?

  • thats y u get a ps3 u dont have to go through all of this

  • @twich4848 but the ps3 now gets yellow light error so really not much better that the 360

  • @jb1994777 realy i didnt know that i never got that yellow light

  • I tried this like 5 days ago and it still works I don't know how much long I have

  • i have that faceplate!! FTW

  • deadcelloo guess what?

    I JUST GOT THE RROD! I CHECKED THE XBOX WEBSITE. WARRANTY FOR A YEAR AFTER PURCHASE, THATS IT. NO WARRANTY DUMBASS. GUESS WHAT ELSE? THE TOWEL TRICK RESETS THE CHIP AND FIXES IT. SO SHUT UP AND GET YOUR FACTS STRAIGHT NEXT TIME.

  • @kombathunter you fail sir the towel trick melts the gel on the GPU and causes it to interact with the motherboard better

  • @dylanon3k no it melts the solder on the gpu making a stronger connection

  • The towel trick is for either dumbasses or pussies. dumbasses if you have a warranty send your box in.

    pussies if you warranty is out there is a 3 year RRoD warranty if that is out OPEN YOUR BOX AND FIX IT LIKE A MAN tutorials are everywhere.

    Why?

    The towel trick will give you diminishing returns.

    30 mins

    10 mins

    5 mins

    then you end up frying the shit out of it and making it completely and permanently UNFIXABLE

  • when I did this is fried my xbox.

  • i dont get it i tryed doing this but my box keeps shutting dont every nine minutes ??? why ?? what am i doing wrong ??

  • if its the 2 red lights take a vacum to every damn hole on that bitch for like 5 min just keep sucking thatal fix em : )

  • this dosent work every time your systems needs a solder reflow so it's gonna need to be taken apart and hit with a reflow oven or a heat gun

  • i just dont know how it works. Over heat it and then cool it off? why not just cool it off right away?

  • overheating it re-flows the solder and makes all your connection points good again till it gets heated up and cooled down a bunch more times then you gotta do a reflow again

  • i tried all tricks and they all worked for me

  • the towel trik only works for abit and in the couple of days it wont work again

  • i am going to use this i got my ring of death yesterday

  • @bowlchamp411

    dude did you try it yet?

  • no and no need to cause it turned out a plug was loose:+) but when i do i will try it

  • ive tried almost every trick for red ring of death dos not work for me

  • it works for me

  • ha ha cool i got that faceplate to dude

  • I Used It Once When My XBOX Had A GPU Failure. And The Towel Trick Worked!

  • it works dude i did not event do it for 25 or 30 minutes i did it for about 5-8 minutes and it turned on again im guessing that the longer you do it the longer that wires will stay heated together

  • does the towel trick work with one light

  • if it is an E74 problem then no

    because that is an actual hardware problem with the 360, send it back to microsofl

  • nice xbox=]

  • º¤ø„¸ ¸„ø¤º°¨¸„ø¤º°¨

    ¨°º¤ø„ ___PS3___ „ø¤º°¨

    ¸„ø¤º°¨SUCKS!!``°º¤ø„¸

    i have 1 though copy and paste

  • why does the ps3 suck

  • yeah that's wat i want to know it doesnt suck but the price kwality ratio is just lower then it from the xbox360

  • If you are one of those gamers that is thinking about trying to repair your Xbox 360 using the towel trick, be cautious. The Towel Trick Repair Method Is Dangerous and can damage your Xbox 360 beyond repair. The Red Ring Of Death is caused do to over-heating, by wrapping a towel around your Xbox 360 you block the air flow needed to cool down your system. Doing this can lead to permanent damage to your console.

  • Nice mod man =)

  • dude tommycrayons get a fuckin life....

  • that way u waste even more time scratchin ur ass waiting for the fucking thing

  • Comment removed

  • I agree with you. Which is why I got rid of -2 which is now -1 :-). Idk if it will show but I see it. I still haven't figure out how long it takes to take effect hehe.

  • yeah but like 3 hours later your xbox fucks up again

  • i fkin got the rrod without it overheating bcuz i waz playin mlb for lyk 10 minutez when it froze n den i restarted da console and i got da rrod wdf.. it didnt even overheat.

  • you suck man what do you have a ps2?

  • nice xbox pattern

  • lol the elite has a built in fan so that the RRD doesn't happen on it which is how you know that they planned for you have the RRD before they even started selling it

  • its supposed to shut itself off, it does work (Y) :)

  • I tried that and my x-box 360 shut itself off. is it just doing that or wat?

  • i did this towel trick and it worked for about 30 minutes. does anybody know why?

  • if u do this then keep it out and unplug it everytime after u play and keep it well cooled then it will last for weeks or sometimes months

  • it lasts longer if you keep it by a fan while its on, mines lasted for weeks

  • I had a small fan on high right next to it and it only lasted a day after I did the towel trick. Also the towel trick can damage your xbox 360 permanatly if you do it too much.

  • i hav the same faceplate as u

  • does the towel trick void the warrante?

  • yes, and it normally only works for a few days

  • i never done the trick.. i just sent mine away and got it back 4 days ago.. it was only away for 1.5 weeks :)..

  • no. unless you open the console up to fix it yourself it doesn't.

  • 20 minutes be enough

  • that should be fine but it is only a temporary fix. Send your console in as soon as possible!

  • question its been about 4 or 5 days does your xbox still work?

  • does the towel have to be damp?

  • nah it shouldn't be 'coz the aim is to overheat your xbox not drench it in water (:

  • nah ur meant to wrap the towel round it to heat it up. am doing it right now. xbox isnt gettin much hotter tho nd its bn 20 minutes

  • nice plate skin gratz.

  • fuckin sweet xbox

  • Yep it sure does work, i did it the other day, thing is it only lasts for a couple of days.
