Xbox 1 Service Error

I am trying to fix a friends XBOX (1st, not 360) and it
loads to the service error screen. I found out that it might be due to locking the HD,
but how do I get the IP Address for it, if I can't get to the dash?

This is the error:

16 - dashboard - Other files to do with dashboard / dashboard settings (specific dashboard error)

P.S. There is NO modchip installed

Ok, I Put the hd in my moded xbox, and now I am getting error code 6: cannot unlock hard drive?

Also, when I get the ervice error code 16, I cannot boot any discs, so I can't boot slayer discs.

 

Read my tutorials...

 

Thanks for the link, but how do I put the original dashboard back on it? That is all I am looking for. Because I can't access it. I can't laod any discs, or the dashboard.

 

His hdd is locked to his xbox eeprom. You cannot just put his hdd in your xbox and expect it to work. If you dont have the eeprom you might have to build a eeprom reader, get the eeprom so you can unlock the hdd. Copy your C: root from your modded xbox to your pc and build him a new one.

 

My tutorials explain perfectly how to recover from an Error 16! It's a type of hotswap process...

 

k, in you link which one is the one that tells you how to fix the service error 16?

 

Here is a pretty detailed page on the whole process.

The hotswap tutorial is easy to find...

 

Well, thanks everyone for your help. I will try the hot swapping thing asap. I can't do much with my computer, eventhough it is TOP OF THE LINE, I can't do much with only one IDE port. LOL, so I have to borrow my parents computer.


How do I know which one is the primary master, and which one is the secondary?

 

ok. So. I tried hooking up the xbox, but when I go to type "XBOXHD" it says that I need to switch to primary master, then reboot. I don't get it? I wish some one would do a write up with picutes and step by step pictures.

 

I've just written a new Hotswap tutorial which addresses your issue!

 

I thank you, my friend. It's about time someone made a good TUT!!

 

Thanks for all the help, everyone. I was able to fix BOTH of my friends xbox's. Cheers!!

 

One Last Question? How do I install Evolution X on a NON MODED XBOX?

 

Read the tutorial section you just used to fix your last problem!

 

I did, but I can't ftp to my xbox. Does it HAVE to be moded?

 

You dont need ftp access to mod it. You need to find all the software and files you need to mod it. Basically it consists downloading the exploit of your choice, having the action replay software, a memory card, (you can make a usb flash drive work also if you dont have an xbox memory card) that is basically all. Read through some tutorials for a more detailed explanation.

 

Thanks. I figured it out. I ftp'ed to my modded xbox, copied all the files I needed, then copied them to the memory card. The copied that to the unmodded xbox, installed them, and BOB'S YOUR UNCLE!!!

 

Good man! My softmod tutorial explains just that !
