    It's under settings in UnleashX, so I would think that is where it also is, for EvoX. Your talking about the LED on front, right?

    I just checked and it is in System Settings, then under system, it says LED Color and you can customize that. I think they are all default, by default. Hope this helps.

    iPirate : evox has settings mess with them until u find your answer sorry its been so long since i'v used evox sorry but it sucks so yea its lame , but i wouldnt recommend changing the circle led cuz that way you can know when red = modded green = safe for xbl ... as well of other trouble shoot led indicators...

    sedtarte : i recommend trying another game 007 is a fun game give that one a shot....

    spartan99 : ok oh boy we got to get into some more work ... ok now what that means is that on your C ( ms dash directory) it contails modded files duh... ok now to fix this what u have to do is

    1 : run a older sid such as sid 2 to install it then run aid 3 and install a fresh ms dash to C so you can pretty much have a clean mod

    or 2 while your in mod linux mode you can temporaly ftp while this gamte is open you can transfer a clean ms dash from your pc to the xbox onto the C folder....

    this step is easy once this is done no more gimics no more issues...

    now on xbox hq theirs a member called pirrup and under his sig he has the latest build of ms dash you d/l it extract the .rar and begain doing the work....

    iPirate, I am very sorry, I misunderstood your post, you can change it using a dashboard like UnleashX or XBMC, and in the "appearance" settings you can set the ring colour.

    Apologies :)

    how did you get into the dash error? well any way hope that you did leave the files there just COLD BOOT the game put the game on the xbox POWER OFF and power back on WITH GAME INSIDE! then try to mod it BUT since you cant mod it due to having modded content then you have to FTP while the linux gate is open so you can fully mod with sid 4...

    so unless you have your xbox modded sid 2 or aid disc wont work

    aid disc is a dashboard/ apps installer but since xbox is still unhacked the unsigend code wont go thro

    its a easy fix

    damn i was wrring pratically an essay and my pc turns off on me .... well it was a issue but i fixed it ( had to tear apart pc ) so sorry for the long wait.


    well im not going to re write it so can you boot the game that you first attempted to mod the xbox ( sc ma or 007?) open the dvd drive turn it off turn it back on with game INSIDE then hit load and see what happens , if you manage to get to linux then the gate is temporarly open so you can FTP a clean ms dash to your C folder then you can install the softmod and bye bye error 13

    its an easy easy fix.....

    NOOO you cannot just d/l someting and try to run it why? cuz xbox isnt modded therefore ms has stil the xbox look into signed coding

    unsigned codes(coding) will allow you to run aid disc ( a dashboard/aps installer and what not)

    but to modify xbox and convince its ms programing you must hack in

    and i just explain how

    this one more method but its FAR harder and reloves ALOT of time

    its called a HOTSWAP

    but this is an easy fix so dont make it hard

    The system will load the games but not the linux it will not work through SC as I tried and it just tells me error code 21

    who ok wait so if you turn on the xbox normaly it loads ms dash and everything is ok right? but when you try to load the linux is when you get error 21? this is because your missing 1 of the 2 files

    or you have a game save of this game that is messing it up .....

    Ok here goes when the xbox is on without a game it gives me error code 13 and when the Xbox is on with Splinter Cell in it runs the game Fine but now when I go to Use the Linux Profile it is giving me error code 21 again I honestly have no idea what is going on I just turned it off to take a break and Play my PS2 and then I tried to get back to work and these were the problems I am facing

    oh wow big bummer your into .... 13 is no dash 21 means you deletd or 1 of the 2 or both files are currpted or bottom line they are gone....

    solution? yeah its called HOTSWAPw/out an eeprom

    go to xbox hq and make a thread about it , tell them exactly what you just said which is

    theirs alot of knowleageable people there but only fix is hotswap or if your xbox was modded in one point then you can run aid 3 and install a dashboard and if well if you get the chances to install a dash then your good . but remember the aid 3 disc only works if your xbox was sucssfully modded otherwise it will fail to lauch the disc . oh and the disc is also found on xbox hq again just go there

    Thanks for all your help and one more question I have learned that this Xbox was previously modded can this help in any way the person said that they had it modded and one day they were playing and turned off the system and then turned it on again and the evox dash no longer showed up and they could no longer play burned games could the fact that it was modded at one point help

    well you see as i explained it back a few post.... if your xbox has the softmod still running then aid 3 can be reconised and run or as well burned games..... now since you cant load the linux and you get dash error you only have 2 options ..... but i really dont think the softmod is running even if you guys screwd up hence the reason why you wanted to re install the softmod ...lol this is what happend? either you unisntalled it or it disappeard somehow and then you wanted it back resulting sid 4 find modded files and it fails and to pretty much the point in here lol .... just do the hotswap on xbox hq u get everything u need and u'll be running in no time

    for sure hotswap fixes it

    running aid 3 and install a dash

    Does the type of Xbox memory card matter? I've been using the following process to try softmodding an xbox.

    Burn rewritable DVD with the appropriate files on it.

    Tranfer to already softmodded xbox (which was done by someone else)

    Transfer to no name thirdparty xbox memory card

    Transfer to new xbox with correct 5960 dash

    Follow tutorial with Splinter Cell

    On reboot after the press A to finish off thing I get the clock screen coming up.

    If I delete the installer and use tray open, I get error 21. With installer still there I'm taken to that.

    Any ideas?

    no the brand of the mem card doesnt matter as it will transfer the needed files however any branded mem card can rarely sometimes currpt files .... ( yes even the ms one )

    non modded xbox will not reconise any unsiged codes

    what you mean the "clock thing" if the circle led is red and ms dash loads asking for time then set it turn it off and turn it back on

    this is NORMAL for the ms dash to come up with the clock time and IF your circle led is red then your xbox is modded

    PLEASE DONT delete neither of the 2 files as this can make things harder to recover your xbox in case of a disaster ....

    ( reason why clock thing comes up is because ms was too cheap to put a better running life battery so time wouldnt get erased after 3+ hrs of unpluged power cable.

    hi kingboxer well i wouldnt recommend anything earlier then sid 4 alto sid 4.5 is just as good and theirs sid 4's everywhere on torrents you can xbox aquire it from xbox hq .com as thats where this mod was made
