NXE Problems and Complaints Sticky

[QUOTE="atm0073"][QUOTE="Chris_555_TK"]Aside from going to the "Spotlight" section to activate the photo party, does anyone know how else to find it?Chris_555_TK

I already downloaded it. I'd just like to use it when I'd like. I know it's in the "Spotlight" section but it's not gonna be there forever. 

my xbox died after i downloaded the nxe... when i trun on my xbox, the ring is still green(no RROD) but my tv is blank and has no sound. i called microsoft and they said it happened to a few other people because of the update. they said i have to wait for a patch for aseveral weeks but if nothing comes, i have to send my xbox to repair(my warranty ended so i would have to pay because of MICROSOFT's fault!!!!)

did anyone else experienced this?

This **** update made my Xbox no longer recognize any discs in the drive!YBRmuggsLP21

My main problem is that after half an hour of playing Gears 2 I get disconnected from XBL for no reason. Then when I reconnect I then get disconnected after 5 minutes.

Is anybody else having this problem ?

I keep denying the update cause of all of the problems I hear. Should I keep waiting? Opinions please.CrazyGamr_basic

Xbox's freezing, people getting bricked, games not working, themes out the window, really stupid nintendoish avatars, and an overall more feminine feel. I think I know whats going on here. . . Bill Gates has secretly had a sex change so now hes taking 360's balls away!

But seriously. WTF Microsoft. . . when I first downloaded the NXE it froze before it even finished setting up afterwards. . . Does Microsoft even know how to code anymore? I got so made at NXE when I first loaded it that I threw my controller at the XBOX. . . not the wall. . . not the TV. . . the thing I actually care about. . . Still works. . . but still. . . They need to take the cartoony feel away from the Avatars. . .

I really dont think they give a **** about the hardcore gamer anymore. . . I really feel like shoving my boot in Mircosofts ass.

TRUE STORY.

so i made an account on Netflix and i decided to link it with my 360. So, i went to Netlfix on 360 and said yes i want to activate streaming. Then, it gave me a code and said to go to netflix and activate it. i put in the code and after a couple of minutes it said sorry we could not register your player and your code has expired. So i input it again and it says to go to your tv and get a new code. I went to Netlfix on the 360 and got another code and inputted it onto the site. Once again same message appears.

 just wondering, did anyone have this probem and how did you fix it. 

thanx. 

My Mp4 and avi. videos dont play anymore offline. If i want to watch them i have to sign in and download the optional media update every F-ing time i want to watch them. My dlc for guitar hero 3 also cannot be played offline its the same story can anyone tell me how i can rectify these problem. I do NOT like the NXE update. It kinda really sucks.

so let me get this straight... one third complaining about the avatars, yet all their gamercards have fairly elaborate avatars, leading me to believe that you spent (at least) sometime designing, which defeats your original post. Second we have people saying it is to childish and at the same time complaining they cant find anything, IF ITS DESIGNED FOR CHILDREN WHAT DOES THIS SAY OF YOUR INTELLIGENCE?? LOL and finally we have people complaining about the spotlight blade.. are you guys really this ignorant?? The original dashboard had subway ads, car ads and a ton of other "non gamer" crap. with this new "spotlight" they only have video game/movie related ads, and if you don't like it, you can change the channel.... am i THE ONLY ONE that didnt like seeing that stupid subway monkey on my dashboard?? or hte mitsubishi ads?? did eveyone ALREADY forget EVERYTHING about the last dashboard??

PS: if you dont like the new dashboard, just use the guide button, it contains all the previous dashboards blades, so stop complaining.

PPS: this dashboard seems to work faster, such as bringing up the blades, loading arcade games, looking at achievement listing and gamer pics without having to wait 30secs for it to "load" all of them.

PPPS: the only weird thing i have had happen is random strangers joining private parties, though it really confuses the person that joins, hehe

Hey everyone. I love the new NXE and everything but it kind of eff'd up my system. My Power Light does not come on anymore even though the system was on. Also, The Controller light does not come off whenever I turn off my system and the plug and play light stays on too even though the system is still off. The cotroller can't turn on the system either. Has this happen to any of you? Please give me a solution. I only bought this 360 about 2 months ago.

 Thanks, Justin

I turned on my 360 today and the ring of light started flashing red on the bottom right of the ring then i got a message saying E74

and it told me to call customer support. THIS IS TOTAL BULL**** I JUST GOT MY GOLD MEMBERSHIP they seriously f'd up cause if heard alot of people got this same thing!!!!!!

^ I don't really care about the avatars, but the spotlight blade is bad b/c it's so 'in your face' the moment you turn the 360 on and sign in. I honestly don't see the point to the 'event' 'welcome' and 'spotlight' blades.grafkhun

i guess all the people that enjoy the nxe are too busy making use of its NEW KICK ASS features, and partying up, rather than complaining on msg boards. Most of you are all whining about things that are irrelevant, everyone should just chill out, it works fine for everyone i know, i understand its different, and that means change, and change scares people., but seriously?? look at all the KAWESOME new features implemented., and its free!! hahaha

people are sooooo COOOL

Randomly freezes,

I have to have fable 2 installed onto my HDD otherwise it freezes completely and you have to restart your Xbox,

Randomly got a RRoD today even though i just got my xbox back a couple months ago from my previous RRoD (since my first xbox was before they fixed that issue)

I actually like the avatars, i'm 14 therefore its "cool" to me.

It's just as expressive as a gamertag, which you also have to have,

so i dont see why people complain

^ I don't really care about the avatars, but the spotlight blade is bad b/c it's so 'in your face' the moment you turn the 360 on and sign in. I honestly don't see the point to the 'event' 'welcome' and 'spotlight' blades.grafkhun

you can disable the welcome blade, which is the first thing i did.

But i agree i wish you could at least choose what blade for it to start off on, when your offline it goes to the My Xbox blade, but when your online it goes to spotlight,

and as of right now im broke, so i dislike seeing "new" things to buy

Just got E74, coincidentally, 5 days after I got NXE on 19 NOV.

First, my GF's avatar was all broken up so I tried restarting the console. Then, boom! E74 error code on the screen. Tried switching between the HDMI and HD AV cables, nothing happened.

So, I packed and shipped the unit to MS service center. Glad I still have one month left on the warranty. Don't know what I'd do if it ran out. :(

just to confirm what i am saying, the site of xbox has many reports:

i have to say that alot on those forums are kinda "a duhhhh". A saftware issue can cause a hardware issue. For example your upadating your GPU, and during the installation something happened in the background that u dont know messing up the installation significantly. Well now that the driver is messed up the GPU is using the unstable driver to operate which causes bad operations which eventually mess up your GPU. This is just an example im not saying that the update caused a GPU problem. but anyway yeah. sry if u were on those forums, but if u say that software cant cause hardware issues you need to redo your homework.;)

To be honest if i get a working console i'm happy, i don't mind any of these avatars or adverts thrown in if my console works everytime.

However with my problem free 2 year old 360 breaking within 24 hours of a major update being released, my confidence in Microsoft's ability to provide for the gamer has been severely rattled. Just make a games console that works, stop being innovative with all these dashboards and media center-ish modules that no one needs, it's a games console. After all, what's the point in having a fancy looking dashboard if your 360 never works correctly.

"Introducing the new XBOX360 Door Stop Experience"

360 will not read any discs after this dumb fcking update.. and microsoft is tryin to make me pay to fix it

I actually get my freezes during gameplay. Fable 2 will not last longer than 10 minutes any more without completely crashing. I'm not even trying to USE any of the new features. I'm not playing the game from my hard drive or anything. I never even play multiplayer online- I only even use the online connection to download extras and Rock Band songs. Now because of all these functions I'll never use, Fable's basically unplayable.

 Fallout 3 is crashing every hour or so, but at least with autosave that's manageable. I've never had any problems before. In fact, this is a brand new system because it fried my last XBox 360 with a permanent RROD on Friday, so I bought a new one instead of getting refurbished crap back. 

I haven't been able to access marketplace or anything else relating to contnet from xbox live.  I can still play multiplayer though. 

Anyone else have this problem?
