So a week or so ago i was trying to sell my 360 on craigslist (trade for a wii). Then I got a deal and i unhook my xbox and I remember that i need to pop out a game after its unhooked. so i just plug it back in the power outlet and hit eject. well i got the rrod. however today when i put in the A/V (the cable to the tv) my xbox worked just fine however when i unplugged it my xbox went back to rrod and when i put it back in my xbox just started up normally.

this happen to anyone else or anyone else knows what this means?

360 does that when those are unplugged. That is why there are alot of fake/staged videos.

Edit: Theres nothing wrong with your 360. Sorry. The 360 flashes the red rings when your A/V cable is unplugged. However, if you get three red rings instead of four (full red ring), that means there is something mechanically wrong with your 360, which in your case, there is not. You missed out on a deal.

It would be funny if anyone had this same issue and reported it as RROD.
