Hacking Possible entrypoints and current roadblocks

[npiet1]

Would being in the alpha, beta rings be helpful at all? Like if you wanted to install CFW, wouldn't exiting the program on the console be a entry point because you're downgrading firmware?

You don't downgrade. You wait until the next public update. From what I recall.

Well so another issue comes, if you joined Insider Preview, updated to preview versions, and for whatever reason you damaged the Xbox OS, won't that mean you are not able to recover it unless send it to Microsoft services ? For eFuse has been blown to a new version that higher than offline recovery packages available.

In the case that it was bugged to that extent then yes, you'd have to. However, I believe some people have managed to recover. Backing up each update is important for that reason.

Do we have a Discord server set up for Xbox One hack discussions? It'd be easier to discuss these things there. If not I can set one up later, or if someone else wants to set one up.
