On November 1, 2010, there will be a mandatory service update to Xbox LIVE. This update will both add
new features to your service and also enhance the interface, navigation, and responsiveness of Xbox
LIVE.

Q: Is there anything I need to do to start the update?
A: Beginning on November 1, 2010, you will receive a notification that an update to Xbox LIVE is available
as soon as you start your Xbox 360 console. Use your controller to accept the update according to the
on-screen instructions.

Q: What if I decline the service update?
A: If you decline the update, you will not be able to connect to Xbox LIVE until the update is accepted. You
will still be able to use all of the offline features of your Xbox 360 console. Xbox LIVE features will be
unavailable until the update is complete.

X-S Note: With the confirmation from C4E that the latest beta fall2010 dashboard has new AP2.5 checks
and SSv3 with new games
, we 'suggest' anyone with a modified FW stay away from the update and these
new games (Fable3, ...) for now if you don't want to be part of the 'MS November 2010 BanHammer' ;)
JTAG 360s (do I need to remind this?) should of course also not update, it will break the JTAG/SMC hack
forever. You will have to wait for a new rebooter (freeBOOT/XBReboot).
