If you are one of the many Xbox Live users who were banned from the service, don’t give up hope just yet. It seems that some modders, probably the folks who modded your Xbox which resulted in the ban, are working on a solution that will return the firmware to a state that is almost the same as the stock firmware, meaning you’ll be able to use your console again. There are currently 2 fixes that are being worked on, namely the iXtremeLT and one from Xbox-Scene. The former isn’t really ready yet, and the latter works, but is extremely complex. Keep the faith, and hopefully the modders will package it into a package that’s simple to apply.
