Xbox One: How to access the Developer settings menu
Now a YouTube video on the GameTuts channel has revealed a way to go ahead and turn any Xbox One into a development kit right now; the YouTube video below has the full procedure.
Having said that, a post on Reddit from an unnamed but confirmed developer of Xbox One games says that the method in the video really shouldn't be used, stating, "Please don't mess with anything here for the time being, especially the sandbox ID. You risk putting your box into a boot loop."
The same developer later posted that he had no idea when Microsoft would officially enable development kits from Xbox One units, stating, "There are many concerns such as privacy, security, stability etc.., that need to be sorted out before we can allow anyone and everyone to simply sideload an app onto their box."
So there you have it. If you really want to, you can turn your new Xbox One into a development kit just for fun, but you run the risk of bricking it. If you really want to make games and self-publish them on the console, your best bet is to sign up for Microsoft's official ID@Xbox program.

Yop Would this be considered "illegal"?No. It's purely legal. Microsoft made this for more or less ANY developer, but half open to everyone...

B98 Also this will allow everyone to run unsigned code and it will turn into a GIANT modding scene once every knows about this, it will also probably get patched soon
Do you realise that this will not start that at all? Give it a little more thinking.
It will take a very long time to have a modified Xbox One console to run unsigned code. And yet, I highly doubt they will be online that easily.
