Hey

I just bought a 360 Slim in a mint condition. The preowner told me that it was rarely used and that everything works fine.
This is true except for Xbox Live. I am not sure what is wrong, but every time I try to download my profile I get the following error message:
Sorry, there's a problem with the credentials that you're using to sign in. Go to https://account.live.com to fix the problem.

8015000A

I don't even have the chance to get to the password screen. As soon as I type in my mail address, I get this error message again. I also tried multiple accounts and also one that definitely works on another 360. I tried to format the HDD, reset the system cache, change some account settings, changing the DNS and even open all ports on my router. Even the Xbox support doesn't know what could be wrong after over an hour of trying some stuff again and again. Does anyone know how I could fix the issue?

Guessing you got the error code

8015000A?​


I got it as well and I'm not sure what is going on, but the only thing I was able to do was load a backup I had created. The last few days it kept popping up with this error code and nothing seemed to fix it. Maybe wait it out or see if you have a backup somewhere on a usb.

I don't have a backup as I own the console just for a few days. Not sure what else I could do now. :/
is that the error code you are getting? If so, I did find a website in the UK that said this is going on across the globe and it is only impacting xbox 360.

Also, do you happen to have an xbox one or xbox series x and use the same profile for both that and the 360?

Yeah that is the error code. Do you still have the link to the website?

Edit: Yea I use the profile on my Series S.

A few years ago XBL had problems with the authentication server causing issues with downloading profiles and creating XBL tickets for new online keyvaults. Might be the same thing?!?

Microsoft have a lot of issues with their live service in the last time.
I recommend to wait a few days.

As an example: On my Xbox Series X I'm getting constantly logged out and thrown out of the Game into the Game Menu or sometimes to the Dashboard, Sometimes I also get the Message that I have to renew my Subscription.

The Servers are not reliable right now so the best way is to wait a few Das and if you still get the same Error I would try reset the Console.

I hope that server issues are the problem. I tried pretty much everything to get this working and had no success.

Btw: Is there a way to fully reset the console? I know about formatting the HDD and the initial setup, but I am unsure if this fully resets everything.

There's a code to reset to a prior firmware (input the button sequence at the system menu) which prompts to download and install the most recent live update, but that didn't work for me.

edit: just tried to connect to live and it prompted a service alert error. So it seems it is still an issue. however i was able to download my profile!! Check it for yourself to see if it is fixed.

  • No one is chatting at the moment.
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    @Sicklyboy I am wanting to fully change the game and bend it to my will lol. I would like to eventually have the ability to add more characters, enemies, even have a completely different story if i wanted. I already have the ability to change the tilemaps in the US version, so I can basically make my own map and warp to it in game - so I'm pretty far into it!
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I really would like to make a hack that I would enjoy playing, and maybe other people would too. swapping to the EU version would also mean my US friends could not legally play it
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I am definitely considering porting over some of the EU features without using the actual ROM itself, tbh that would probably be the best way to go about it... but i'm sad that the voice acting is so.... not good on the US version. May not be a way around that though
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I appreciate the insight!
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @TwoSpikedHands just switch, all the knowledge you learned still applies and most of the code and assets should be the same anyway
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    and realistically they wouldn't

    be able to play it legally anyway since they need a ROM and they probably don't have the means to dump it themselves
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    why the shit does the shitbox randomly insert newlines in my messages
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It does that when I edit a post.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It inserts a newline in a random spot.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    never had that i don't think
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    do y'all think having an sd card that has a write speed of 700kb/s is a bad idea?
    trying to restore emunand rn but it's taking ages... (also when I finished the first time hekate decided to delete all my fucking files :wacko:)
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @Karma177 that sd card is 100% faulty so yes, its a bad idea
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    even the slowest non-sdhc sd cards are a few MB/s
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    @The Real Jdbye it hasn't given me any error trying to write things on it so I don't really think it's faulty (pasted 40/50gb+ folders and no write errors)
  • DinohScene @ DinohScene:
    run h2testw on it

  • DinohScene @ DinohScene:
    when SD cards/microSD write speeds drop below a meg a sec, they're usually on the verge of dying

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Samsung SD format can sometimes fix them too
  • Purple_Heart @ Purple_Heart:
    yes looks like an faulty sd
  • Purple_Heart @ Purple_Heart:
    @Psionic Roshambo i may try that with my dead sd cards

    It's always worth a shot

    @The Real Jdbye, I considered that, but i'll have to wait until i can get the eu version in the mail lol
