How to Softmod your Xbox with SID 4.0

XxSCABSxX · 08-09-2006, 08:56 PM

well what if i need to uninstall the soft mod for any reason?

**AzzidReign** · 08-09-2006, 09:26 PM

The installer won't let you install unless you have a good backup...just try to install...I know what I'm talking about. If you can't install, then come back here and ask for someone's ms backup.

I reinstalled it Azzid, but I still am not able to access LIVE!. Like it lets me put in my pw, but it doesnt show the box that says connecting to Xbox Live. So what should I do?

verybag · 08-10-2006, 01:55 AM

hmmm im stuck on the third pic for splinter cell... its like messed up it will not load the installer

verybag · 08-10-2006, 09:25 AM

i deleted a bunch of stuff off of my xbox harddrive and now it works
but yes this was a very successful tutorial
=D

verybag · 08-10-2006, 10:18 AM

how do i change my ip to automatic, because it goes as far as letting me type in my password ans when i type in the fourth didgit it just goes back to main menu starting where it says press start to continue

verybag · 08-10-2006, 10:43 AM

ok i went back and read the forums and reread the instructions, like a retard after i saw i had completed the installation of my softmods i left the forum now that i messed up i went back and figured out my mistake sorry for the trouble

**AzzidReign** · 08-10-2006, 11:36 AM

So...did you figure out how to get your ip to be auto?

@mlg, make sure you ip is dhcp/automatic. Once you change that, restart your Xbox, and then turn it off, open the tray, wait til you get the ms dash, put the game in and try to get on live. Do NOT try to do a trouble shooter...that will prolly ban your Xbox.

ok ill try that when i get home, thanks, and 2 questions, can i install a soft mod without a dashboard? i mean my xbox currently has no dashboard but it reads games and such. and then after the mod is installed i should have ftp access, so where would i put the retail dashboard in? ( to be sure... do i also need to do the other backups? like mod backup and eeprom?)

**AzzidReign** · 08-10-2006, 03:11 PM

If you have no dash...how can you transfer the files over?

XxSCABSxX · 08-10-2006, 04:22 PM

i already have the SID 4 files on my hdd
and my xbox still reads game disks

XxSCABSxX · 08-10-2006, 06:42 PM

so do u think my idea would work?

**AzzidReign** · 08-11-2006, 12:31 AM

Just reinstall...skip the backing up parts and install the softmod.

mikey1980 · 08-11-2006, 08:18 AM

I was wondering ..
I have read all the posts in this thread and yes a lot of the HOW TO is kiddi stuff i guess like winrar etc etc..
Anyway Azzid i have a question .. I have done a lot of softmods using SID v2.0 .
Now im wondering if i should "upgrade" to this one instead since it has an Uniinstall function which SID2 dosnt have.

1- BUT are there games/backup that wont work after this Softmod ?

2- You are talking about some errors ,are thouse errors corected or are you working on another new /fresh TUT ?

I dont understand the big problems peopel are having the guide seems where well written but that sayid im a little big "turn of" by how many complains of errors etc etc.

All I wanna be abel to is to play my backup games without ANY problems at all just like SID2 ...

Thank you for a very well written guide ..

so assuming your talking to me... my idea would work then? installing the softmod and afterwards ftping a new dash?

mikey1980 · 08-11-2006, 12:15 PM

Okay I did this softmod.

And i did everything as the guide sayid , i didnt run into any errors or anything like that however , I now got a problem My LED shows RED and when i insert a game it wont boot up and that sayid i cant play any games..

I have the new dahsboard i did the install correct , no errors or anything ...

So How do i Uninstall this softmod ?? and if i remove this softmod will it have any effect on my EEprom file ???

EDIT : An Unistall guide would be cool ;-)

**AzzidReign** · 08-11-2006, 12:57 PM

Geeze...I don't understand how so many people have problems with this softmod

Try these files instead:
Up-File :: download SID-4.0-Nknave.rar

This is basically SID 4.0.1. Gus, one of the beta testers of SID helped get some errors out with it. I was testing it on another site to make sure that it worked before I would have people here trying it. But if you want to try that, just overwrite those linux files for the ones yo ucurrently have and just resoftmod. Then FTP to your xbox and clear your cache folders (x,y,z) and tell me if you games work then. PM me when you've replied back to this thread so I can check it out asap.

mikey1980 · 08-11-2006, 01:34 PM

Azid ..I decidet to stick with my old softmod ways ... I dont dare try it again ..But still a very well written guide ..some info though my xbox is the newst one with the newst dashboard just like the one in the pdf file andi triede several games..anyway its cool i figured out to remove this softmod ..(to other who dont know how , just start up the game u used to softmod with and then just selecet checkpoint and then the menu starts up again here u can just press unistall and it will be removed from your xbox and returend to is ORG state , and here u can softmod it once again with another mod if not the same one

Thanks

**AzzidReign** · 08-11-2006, 03:10 PM

Ok, well I'm sorry it didn't work out for you. I will be releasing a tutorial for krayzies softmod...i've heard thats more effecient than SID...but we'll see.

thenoob · 08-12-2006, 12:03 AM

Azzid, Could you please tell what I would use Dual Boot PAL or NTCS for 007 Agent Under Fire?

As you can tell I am a noob Look at my name ^.^
