(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); On Tuesday afternoon, June 4th, 2013, my original white XBOX 360 got the damn RROD. I thought it was gone completely so I was already looking online for local repair shops that fix gaming consoles. I found a couple of them not that far away from me. One actually only charge $25, surprisingly, I thought it was going to be way more than that. Anyways, I was about to call them and ask for information and stuff but I kept on looking online for ways to fix it myself. Now, keep in mind that I have opened up my 360 many times before within the past 2 or 3 months. I have the original white 360 and it collects dust like a MOFO, lol.

Side story: Around the middle of March, my 360 got the 2 RROD and I didn't even know what it meant. I thought my 360 was gone that time as well. So I opened it up one day and completely cleaned it out and ever since then, it has worked like a charm. No problems until Tuesday.

Now, on Monday night, I was playing my 360 with no problems. Then on Tuesday early afternoon, I turned on my 360 to see who was online because I was kind of bored and I was online for like 20-30mins. I turned off my 360 and that was it. Later on that day, I turned it on again to actually play and it froze on the circle XBOX booting up thing. At first, I ignored it and turned it off and then turned it on again. It did the same thing. It did it a good 4 times. So I went online and looked it up and people said to try turning on the XBOX without the HDD in. So I did that and as I pushed the power button, it got the RROD. Once I saw the RROD, I freaked out and went online like I said above looking for repair shops and solutions to fix it myself. I ended up watching this 5minute video that surprisingly actually fixed my RROD. It is this video:


I did the same exact thing that guy did and it fixed the RROD. I did that Wednesday morning and I kept my XBOX on all day so it wouldn't turn off or give me some freezing bs again. It managed to stay on all day with no problems. Now yesterday morning though, I turned it on to see if it was still working and it froze automatically on the starting up logo thing. Now, every time I turn it on, it freezes right on the starting up logo.

Summary: My XBOX got the RROD on Tuesday. I fixed my RROD with the video above Wednesday morning and played all day. Now, ever since Thursday morning, every time I turn it on, it freezes on the start up circle XBOX logo thing.

P.S. I tried about an hour ago to see if it works and it still froze. I've already opened u my 360 so I cant ship it out it Microsoft.

Do you guys know of any "remedies" to fix this freezing problem?

Haxor!
It seems you need some new thermal paste. Take your X-clamps off, put a small amount of thermal paste on it, buy X-clamp replacement, put it all back to gather a BOOM.

Note: The towel trick only messes it up more.
I suggest don't do it; it just over heats your thermal paste and maybe you will get lucky and it spreads or something.

I've only done the trick in the video I posted above. That's it. I might go to this one dudes house later on today so he can fix it for $40. Hopefully he can fix it.
