Like the way you change it to get voice commands for the kinect?

If so, tried that and it didn't work.

Thanks for the replies.

Did you try changing your DNS? That works for getting Netflix US on an Xbox so it may work for your purpose also . You might as well give it a try

calex71 · 30-07-2014 6:46pm

Have a look at unblockUS theres a 7 day trial and no payment details needed upfront or software needed.

30-07-2014 6:50pm

I won't clutter the thread anymore. Thanks for the replies.

It works for UK and other countries(for Netflix & Others)

Heads up, lads, talking about that sort of stuff is not allowed. Boards can potentially get into water over that sort of thing being discussed on here.

is cdkeys the cheapest to buy xbox live?

calex71 · 30-07-2014 11:05pm

Sign In issues on One again tonight, seems to be happening regularly over the last few weeks. Pain having to disconnect your network to sign in locally and an even bigger pain to have to re-enter the wpa key when it the problems with sign in are resolved...... wheres that feature request I'm going to add that the One should not forget the network key if you disconnect it :mad:

tony1980 · 30-07-2014 11:35pm

Get yourself some network plugs

awec · 30-07-2014 11:36pm

Yea can't sign in.

deco nate · 30-07-2014 11:47pm

This is a bloody joke! Happening way too much,
Why the he'll are we paying for
Something that we can't use?!

*Runs to Twitter to post a rant
To major Nelson *

I got 12 months for 29.99 from cardscodes.com last night, code was delivered by email in 15 minutes.

Kerplunk124 · 30-07-2014 11:59pm

reddit says not to download the update atm as it will factory reset your console

Kerplunk124 · 31-07-2014 12:17am

It's back for me

tony1980 · 31-07-2014 12:29am

Ya, up and running now

deco nate · 31-07-2014 12:49am

Must have been my rant at major Nelson that sorted it!

Instead of disconnecting it...

Go to Settings >> Network >> Go offline.

Oh that must be new , previously the option was called "disconnect"

Haven't turned my One on in over 3 months. What's changed since March (with the UI/features)?

Turn it on and find out yourself would be the fastest way

Not at home, won't be for a few days...just curious to know if there have been any major updates.

First of all, you've been missing out on the free games with Gold.

The monthly system updates summarised here:

June System Update

July System Update

August System Update - (Currently in preview)

As well as EA Access exclusive to Xbox One - The Vault: A Selection of EA games on Xbox One ready to download and play as part of your EA Access membership. At launch, you’ll have access to FIFA 14, Madden NFL 25, Battlefield 4 and Peggle 2. More games will be added over time.

Play First: EA Access members will get to experience trials of new EA games early on Xbox One. Starting 5 days before release, you’ll be able to try the game for at least two hours and then save your progress. Once you purchase the digital or physical copy, you can use your save game and continue the experience.

PLUS: All EA Access members will save 10% on EA purchases from Xbox Live. From full digital games to downloadable content, you get 10% off with your EA Access membership. .

And these games can be kept forever once downloaded during the month?

Yeah, what runawaybishop said. You have access to the games as long as you have a current Gold subscription, even if you let it lapse for a while, as long as you renew it again you'll have access to the games once more.

Btw, that EA Access thing I quoted too works out at only about €26 per year through the Xbox U.S marketplace. Bargain!

MiskyBoyy · 03-08-2014 10:38pm

Ok, NOW a white Xbox One has been leaked/rumoured.

A french retailer listed a white Xbox One bundled with Sunset Overdrive and also with a 1TB hard drive for a very nice price of €399

Hmmm, I am a bit suspicious of this rumour. A French retailer that I never heard of posted something accidentally. Its great press for them. They'll be known worldwide now.

We do know that Microsoft said they will eventually release a white version. It just seems like an odd combo. A white Xbox and Sunset Overdrive. If they said the Xbox One would have a Sunset overdrive skin I'd believe it more.

If its true an announcement will surely be at Gamescon, also I'd say its just a 500GB console.

Well, do we really hear about gaming sites that aren't in English?

Only time will tell I suppose but I do like the look of the white one myself.

I remember a guy selling the white "I made this" special edition one on adverts back in November and he was only looking for RRP price for it. I'd love to know was it actually genuine. I'd have took hand and all if I wasn't so wary of it! Here it is: http://www.adverts.ie/xbox/xbox-one-with-fifa-forza-2-controllers-special-edition/4462478

If it is not reported from Jeux Video in France, it is more than likely not true.

Perks of the job .
My godmother works for Microsoft in the US so I get my gold membership sorted. Apparently the employee discount is incredible.

Looks sexy in white .
