I've been so careful for many years and yesterday my luck ran out, I put an old backup of batman in offline, But it come up Black screen then went to dashboard, I knew It was bad.. I used Xval 2.0 and it says Failed AP25 Challenge :(, Im not 100% sure if its the batman or what but all I know is Failed AP25 Challenge isn't good...

What I want know is, could this be wrong? everywhere I read it says that Aval cant be trusted anymore 100%... and If its right and Im doomed, Is there a way out? Will unflashing it and putting stock back on, Only using originals keep me from getting banned?

I can't believe i did this, I normally just keep with my original xbox and use my back up "flashed" xbox if my original games are hard play "scratched disc"... I wouldn't mind but both my flashed and unflashed are elites with 120gb, I dont want a banned console even if it means having 2 unflashed consoles.

A failed AP2.5 challenge does not mean a ban, legit consoles can get a AP2.5 flag if the laser is on its way out

Well seeming its been marked now what should I do? I do play some backups online using my flashed console but I know all my games are 100% safe, I rip them and burn them my-self, I play 90% of my xbox live online through my original xbox using original games, So you think I should be safe and Microsoft wont scan the console when it goes online or should I flash it to stock and go on-line with it, that way if they scan my console, it wont get banned?

just keep on doing what you've been doing, like I said it means nothing a stock xbox can get AP2.5 flag from a retail disc if the disc is scratched or if the laser is failing.
