Nice, I'll run a update once I get back home and see how it runs, wonder if they've improved the opening speed of the guide now or will soon?  Right after you first start up and hit the home screen if you press left next it can take a good bit of time for the guide to come up.

I think the guide opens slow because it does a small scan of whats on the HD first.  At launch is the only time I've come across it.

You maybe onto something there, as just tried the left menu again and it appeared pretty much instantly.

Yeah, it's slow at the very start of the system, right at bootup, after that it comes up fast, so it's probably scanning or doing something in the background, probably no way to change that behavior, limitation of the hardware or they might have to delay some scanning or w/e.  I figure it's still checking/updating it's info from XBL.

Another thing that's weird, my community feed is stuck and out of date, none of the newest achievements I've unlocked show up in it and so on, even hitting the refresh button doesn't do anything.  I checked the privacy settings but I don't see anything set to blocked that could stop it from happening.

Do all your newest achievements show up and so on?  I don't see mine in the feed at all, maybe I'm missing something in the privacy settings, I'll take another look again.

I just loaded up Battlefield Hardline for the first time and grabbed a couple of achievements, if i then go to Community i can't see them, but if i refresh they show up. 

I can also see you grabbed 20 on Alien Isolation an hour ago.

Well, that's the weird thing, you see that alien isolation post yet I don't see any of them, I hit the refresh button at the top but nothing.  I'm at a loss in this case.

I wonder if the Windows 10 Xbox app has an effect?  I have my win10 tablet in my room and I hear the notification hit it shortly after I get it on the XB1, I bet if I opened the xbox app on my tablet the feed will show up correctly even though it doesn't on the XB1 itself.

I am playing the game on the one, heh,  anyways, I think I've worked out the issue, it seems the problem is with my location, if I set my location to the US, the feed works fine, but if I set it to my correct location it doesn't, weird.

Oh that is strange, have you filed a bug report?

Yeah, even more weird is if I'm logged into the Greece version of xbox.com the same issues happens.  Seems to be some weird profile problem maybe?

When did it start happening?

I think it actually started happening while I was still on the old dash, so it might not be an issue with the new one at all and maybe a server side issue of some sort?   There's nothing in my account settings that would get in the way so I don't know what to make of it.  I'll keep an eye out and see if it fixes itself or not.

A HUGE update for the dash this morning, around 3GB!!!

Version number is now 10.0.10586.1005 (th2_xbox_rel_1510.151107-0003) fre

You must have missed an update or two for it to be that size. Mine was only 300mb or so this morning. They've been updating it pretty much every day this week.

:o

I better check that, i wouldn't want to sit down to discover i had to grab a 3GB download which would take me about 8 hours.

Was it pre-downloaded, or was it like a few i've had this week that needed me to initiate them and put the Xbox out of service?

Anybody got Assassin's Creed Unity? Can somebody please try starting the game from the start and see if they duplicate my issue?

Game is basically unplayable on NXOE for me. After starting the game, the cut scenes keep freezing repeatedly (though sound continues). Then when you get to actual gameplay, it too freezes repeatedly but with sound. Eventually it causes the console to hard crash and power off. See my youtube video for a demo.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GOlIHXXiOig

I've been speaking with Mike Ybarra from the Xbox team on twitter, and their guys are having trouble duplicating it. I've also just reported it to Ubisoft directly too, and I await a response. If I can find some other people with the same symptoms, then the Xbox team might be able to find something in common and perhaps duplicate the issue internally.

For some background, I've owned ACU for nearly a year (got a code for it last Christmas from a friend) and installed it not long after. However I have not yet played it, so the game has sat installed but unplayed since then. I finished Black Flag a couple of weeks ago, so decided to start ACU. This was after I first got NXOE. The game has not been launched on the original Xbox One software.

Not pre downloaded as i have started turning off the Xbox at night now until i work out its power use, i am on a 100mbit though so it didn't affect me.

I just loaded the game, it didn't have a cut scene to play but it went straight into the game when i clicked continue and i could run around and stuff, from my point of view it looked very normal without issues.

I will eventually play it but i need to complete Black Flag first.

Any chance you could start a new session from the beginning? See if it's perhaps just a start of the game thing?  I'm also currently re-installing the game to see if it's somehow perhaps just the old download that got corrupt in the system update, or some such. Thanks :)

How do i do that, can't see an option only continue?

Actually my game starts in the same place as your video so i guess that must be the start?

Yeah I only saw the freezing cut scenes once, each subsequent attempt starts me at that same place, which is right at the start of the playable game.

Thanks for trying. Let's see if my re-install has an effect. 47GB might take a few minutes to download though ;)

    • Signal accuses UK government of using child safety as cover for mass surveillance

      By David Uzondu · Posted

      Signal accuses UK government of using child safety as cover for mass surveillance by David Uzondu Recently, the UK's Home Office announced a sweeping set of proposals to make Britain the "first country in the world" where children cannot share or view nude photos on their smart devices, an initiative that authorities claim will protect children from online predators and combat pornography. In response, Signal believes that while the government must keep children "safe" and "protected," it should do so through social services and education, not by "surveillance, funding cuts, and cover-ups." The company called the plan "dystopian" and warned that it violates everyone's fundamental right to privacy, arguing that scanning on the presumption of nudity will only strengthen the market dominance and data control of giant corporations like Apple and Google. The statement continues by accusing the government of hiding its true intentions under the guise of child safety. Signal argues that the Home Office is building an invisible surveillance infrastructure that remains ripe for exploitation by future administrations and authoritarian regimes. According to the company, this aggressive approach completely ignores the actual needs of young people, such as properly funded schools and mental health services. Tech companies like Apple and Google have a three-month window to implement these mandatory device-level filters across the United Kingdom. If these tech firms refuse to comply with the mandate, the government will pass emergency legislation to force them to comply, threatening massive fines and even going after the CEOs of these companies with criminal charges. The technology will work by blocking explicit images directly on the operating system of all smartphones and tablets by default. This system monitors the device camera and third-party apps to intercept nudity before anyone can upload or send the image. Adults can still view explicit content, but only after completing a strict age verification check to unlock their devices. Several bodies like the NSPCC and Barnardo's praised the Home Office's decision, arguing that device-level intervention stops the cycle of grooming before it starts. The Internet Watch Foundation (IWF) also supported the policy, claiming that tech companies can implement on-device checks "without threatening privacy or collecting any data."

    • Incredible deal gets you free NVMe 512GB SSD with AMD AM5 B850 motherboard for only $150

      Incredible deal gets you free NVMe 512GB SSD with AMD AM5 B850 motherboard for only $150 by Sayan Sen Earlier this week we covered the story of an interesting PC case wherein you can build two full-size computers inside it as in it can house and run an AMD and an Intel system simultaneously. Speaking of building PCs, these are hard times to make one for sure as prices are often very high except during flash sales or discounts. If you are in the market for a 1080p gaming PC then Nvidia's 8GB RTX 5060 Ti is currently on sale for just $330 and you get the latest James Bond game too, for free. Speaking of which, right now there is another incredible sale going on as we can get a free 512 GB NVMe SSD from TeamGroup in the form of the G50 alongside the purchase of an AMD B850 socket AM5 motherboard for only $150 (purchase link under the specs table down below). Getting an AM5 motherboard now in 2026 will be a wise investment for sure, especially since AMD confirmed its commitment to support the socket till at least 2029. The MSI PRO B850M-P WIFI is a micro-ATX motherboard that is compatible with AMD Ryzen 9000 series processors. Since it is AM5, the motherboard works with DDR5 memory and includes MSI’s Memory Boost technology, along with EXPO and XMP support. Connectivity features include built-in Wi-Fi 7 paired with a 5G LAN solution. The board offers a PCIe 5.0 M.2 slot with MSI’s EZ M.2 Shield Frozr II thermal solution, that is said to help maintain SSD performance by providing ample cooling against overheating. The technical specifications of the MSI PRO B850M-P WIFI motherboard are given in the table below: Specification Value Form Factor Micro-ATX (mATX), 243.84 × 243.84 mm Chipset AMD B850 Socket AM5 Supported Processors AMD Ryzen 9000, 8000, and 7000 Series Desktop Processors Memory Slots 4 × DDR5 UDIMM Max Memory 256 GB Memory Speed DDR5 8200–5600 MT/s (OC), DDR5 5600–4800 MT/s (JEDEC) Display Outputs 1 × HDMI 2.1 (up to 4K 60Hz) 1 × DisplayPort 1.4 (up to 4K 60Hz) PCIe Slots 1 × PCIe 5.0 x16 (CPU) 3 × PCIe 3.0 x1 (Chipset) Audio Codec Realtek ALC897 Audio Channels 7.1-Channel High Definition Audio M.2 Slots 3 × M.2 slots M.2_1: PCIe 5.0 x4 (CPU) M.2_2: PCIe 4.0 x4 (CPU) M.2_3: PCIe 4.0 x2 (Chipset) M.2 Device Sizes M.2_1: 2280/2260 M.2_2: 2280/2260 M.2_3: 2280 SATA Ports 4 × SATA 6Gb/s RAID Support SATA: RAID 0, 1, 10 NVMe: RAID 0, 1, 5, 10 Rear USB Ports 4 × USB 2.0 2 × USB 5Gbps Type-A 1 × USB 10Gbps Type-A 1 × USB 10Gbps Type-C Front USB Headers 4 × USB 2.0 4 × USB 5Gbps Type-A 1 × USB 10Gbps Type-C LAN Realtek 8126VB 5Gb Ethernet Wireless Networking Wi-Fi 7 (802.11 a/b/g/n/ac/ax/be) Tri-band 2.4GHz / 5GHz / 6GHz MU-MIMO, MLO, 4KQAM Up to 2.9Gbps Bluetooth Bluetooth 5.4 Internal Power Connectors 1 × 24-pin ATX Power 1 × CPU Power 1 × PCIe Power (8-pin) Cooling Headers 1 × CPU Fan 1 × Combo Fan/Pump 3 × System Fan RGB Headers 3 × Addressable RGB Gen2 (JARGB_V2) 1 × RGB LED (JRGB) Additional Internal Headers 2 × Front Panel (JFP) 1 × Chassis Intrusion (JCI) 1 × Front Audio (JAUD) 1 × COM Port (JCOM) 1 × JDASH Tuning Controller 1 × TPM 2.0 Header The free TeamGroup T-FORCE G50 NVMe SSD is a PCIe Gen4 and as such it promises to deliver sequential read speeds of up to 5,000 MB/s, helping accelerate game loading, file transfers, and everyday computing tasks. The SSD features an InnoGrit controller and SLC caching technology to support consistent performance. An ultra-thin, patented graphene heatsink is included to aid in heat dissipation. The NAND flash is based on TLC which means it has plenty of endurance up its sleeve. The random performance may not be as amazing as other drives with DRAM though. Still it should be very good since it can access system memory via HMB to use it as its DRAM cache. The technical specifications of the TeamGroup 512GB G50 NVMe SSD are given in the table below: Specification Value Model / Part Number TM8FFE512G0C129 Form Factor M.2 2280 Interface PCIe Gen4x4 with NVMe Sequential Read Speed Up to 5,000 MB/s Sequential Write Speed Up to 2,500 MB/s Endurance (TBW) 325 TBW DRAM Cache No Cache Technology SLC Cache Controller InnoGrit Controller Solution Operating Temperature 0°C to 70°C Storage Temperature -40°C to 85°C Weight 7 g Dimensions 80.0 × 22.0 × 3.7 mm Vibration Resistance 80 Hz ~ 2,000 Hz / 20G Shock Resistance 1,500G / 0.5 ms MTBF 3,000,000 hours Get it at the link below: MSI PRO B850M-P WIFI AM5 AMD motherboard + Team Group T-FORCE G50 TM8FFE512G0C129 512GB SSD (free gift): $149.99 (Sold and Shipped by Newegg US) This Newegg deal is US-specific and not available in other regions unless specified.
