GTA San Andreas Cheats for Xbox 360

GTA San Andreas cheats for the 2014 Xbox 360 port, with button combinations, version differences and compatibility notes for disputed codes.

This guide contains 90 distinct controller cheat combinations documented for the 2014 Xbox 360 port of Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, covering weapons, money, health and armor, wanted levels, vehicles, CJ's stats, pedestrians, traffic, time and weather.

Playing The Definitive Edition on Xbox One or Series X|S? This page covers the separate Xbox 360 HD port released in 2014. Use our GTA Trilogy Definitive Edition cheats for Xbox for the 2021 remaster, because its cheat compatibility and shoulder-button layout are different.

How to Enter GTA San Andreas Cheats on Xbox 360

Enter a combination during normal gameplay, without pausing. Press the buttons in order and reasonably quickly. Use the D-pad for Up, Down, Left and Right, not the analog stick. A Cheat Activated message should appear when the game recognizes the sequence.

  • Use the Xbox 360 controller's A, B, X and Y face buttons exactly as written.
  • LT/RT are the triggers and LB/RB are the bumpers.
  • You do not need to complete a mission or open a menu before entering a code.
  • Move CJ to a clear, open area before using a vehicle-spawn combination.
  • Some cheats can be toggled by repeating the combination, but others cannot be safely reversed.

Do not copy Xbox One or Series X|S combinations blindly. The 2014 Xbox 360 port reverses the bumpers and triggers used by later Xbox versions: where a modern list shows LB/RB, this page may require LT/RT, and vice versa. Every sequence below is already written for Xbox 360.

Achievement and save warning: Activating a cheat disables achievements for the affected save. Create a separate clean save before entering any combination and never overwrite it. Pedestrian, riot, gang, traffic and world-state cheats can also disrupt missions or persist in a saved game. Reload the clean save or restart the game to restore normal behavior reliably.

These are the 90 distinct controller combinations documented for the 2014 Xbox 360 port. The count treats duplicate labels and longer forms of the same input as one effect. Conflicting or redundant combinations from older lists are preserved below with their actual status instead of being mixed into the main tables.

Xbox 360 Compatibility Notes, Mislabelled Codes and Common Myths

Many old lists mix real codes with invented combinations, internal effects that have no known button sequence and genuine combinations carrying the wrong label. The entries below preserve those commonly searched claims while making their status clear.

Alternative, disputed and non-working Xbox 360 cheat listings
Claim or listingCombination commonly publishedStatus on the 2014 Xbox 360 port
Maximum StaminaUp, A, Y, A, Y, A, X, RB, RightThe combination is valid, but the label is wrong: it gives every Taxi and Cabbie rechargeable nitrous and a boost jump. It does not change CJ's Stamina.
Taxi missions completed / taxi upgrade aliasUp, Left, Left, Down, B, X, LT, LT, LB, RT, RBThis longer sequence appears in Xbox 360-era lists for the taxi reward. It is not counted as a separate effect; use the shorter taxi-upgrade combination in the main table.

Recruit Anyone with an AK-47Often assigned the Rural Traffic sequence.A contemporary Xbox 360 source identifies that combination as Rural vehicle traffic, while some later matrices assign it to this recruitment effect. This guide follows the 2014-port listing, but the label should be hardware-tested before restoring a "tested" claim.
Police vehicles attack pedestriansRight, RB, Up, Up, RB, B, X, RB, LT, Right, Down, LTAppears in some Xbox 360 lists but is not part of the verified matrix used here. Keep it out of the working table pending build-specific testing.

The Import and Export activity is unlocked by completing Customs Fast Track. Export payments depend on vehicle condition, and delivered models can later be purchased from the board on specific days.

Missable Special Mission Vehicles

These are not conventional unlockables. They are special mission variants that must be taken to a garage before the relevant opportunity disappears. Their protection flags and extraction methods can vary in the mobile-derived 2014 port, so create a separate save and treat each method as version-sensitive.

Missable special mission vehicles
VehicleMissionSpecial propertiesHow to keep it
Cesar's SavannaHigh Stakes, Low-RiderThe classic mission vehicle is resistant to bullets, fire and explosions; persistence of those flags is version-sensitive.Make Cesar leave the locked car after the race, then push or tow it into an owned garage.
Ballas TahomaHouse PartyBulletproof and fireproof.After the mission, push one of the locked Tahomas beneath Ganton Bridge into the Johnson House garage. Do not move too far away or it may despawn.
White WaltonMadd DoggThe classic mission variant carries broad damage, bullet, fire and explosion resistance, but its flags may differ in this port.Keep the Walton used to catch Madd Dogg and place it in a garage before it disappears.
The Truth's MothershipAre You Going to San Fierro? or RiotUnique hippie paint scheme. Protection properties vary depending on the acquisition method, so it is not universally indestructible.Divert the mission Camper to an owned garage before completing or failing the mission.
S.W.A.T. TankEnd of the LineThe usable mission variant is bulletproof and fireproof.Store it in a garage and fail the mission before completion. One method is to destroy it inside the garage, let the mission fail, then close and reopen the garage to repair it.

Xbox 360 Easter Eggs, Secrets, Curiosities and Glitches

The following section preserves the original page's secrets and glitches without pretending every old PS2 method survived the mobile-derived Xbox 360 port. Each entry is identified as a normal mechanic, a version-sensitive method or a legacy feature unavailable in this release.

Store More Than Two Vehicles in a Garage

Park the vehicles close to a save garage. Drive the first one halfway through the doorway and get out, leaving it in the door's path so the garage stays open. Drive the next vehicle fully inside, then return to the first and move it completely into the garage. Step away and allow the door to close before saving.

Warning: every vehicle must physically fit. Garages normally remember no more than four vehicle entries, and overcrowding can make one disappear. Reopen the garage and check its contents before overwriting an important save.

The embedded demonstration uses a classic release. Garage capacity and collision behavior should be checked before saving on the 2014 port.

Stop a Gang Attack on Your Territory

Save the game while another gang is attacking one of CJ's territories and the attack should be cancelled. Use a separate slot if you are experimenting, so you do not overwrite your clean progress.

Dual-Wield Weapons

Only the 9mm Pistol, Micro SMG, Tec-9 and Sawn-Off Shotgun can be dual-wielded. Raise the relevant weapon class to Hitman skill and CJ will hold one of the selected model in each hand. The Silenced 9mm, Desert Eagle and SMG cannot be dual-wielded.

The Gant Bridge Easter Egg

Use a Jetpack to reach the highest part of Gant Bridge. A sign hidden there reads: There are no Easter Eggs up here. Go away.

Change the Size of the Moon

Aim at the moon through a Sniper Rifle scope and shoot it. Each hit cycles the moon through several sizes.

The Reported Lemmings Tribute

Version-sensitive observation: from the passage beside the Las Venturas gym, look toward the building across the street and pedestrians may be seen walking or falling from the roof. Fans commonly interpret this as a nod to Lemmings, which was created by DMA Design before the studio became Rockstar North, although the game never confirms that interpretation.

CJ Sings When Idle

Leave CJ inactive and he may sing or hum fragments of songs heard on the radio. The behavior is real, but the claim that he always chooses the songs the player has heard most often is not established.

Funny License Plates

Some special and imported vehicles use custom plates instead of random text. The exact plate pool varies by release; examples such as OUR FERGIE, DI5CO5TU and EA SUCKS are documented in classic versions and should not all be assumed to survive in the 2014 port.

Idle Camera

Unverified on the 2014 port: older versions switch to an idle cinematic camera after CJ remains still for several minutes. This port removed the selectable cinematic-camera option and changed other camera features, but that is not conclusive proof about the automatic idle view. Keep this as a classic-version note unless it is reproduced on the target build.

Jesus Saves

A Los Santos mural includes the words Jesus Saves. This references GTA 2, where churches marked with the same phrase were used to save the game; it is not the save system from the original Grand Theft Auto.

Free Paint Jobs at Loco Low Co. and Wheel Arch Angels

Legacy, version-sensitive glitch: classic-console guides describe confirming a paint job and immediately backing out to keep the livery without paying. This was documented for older releases and should not be presented as a guaranteed Xbox 360 method without testing the exact 2014 build. It concerns liveries at Loco Low Co. and Wheel Arch Angels, not colors, parts or repairs.

Headless CJ

Unavailable in the 2014 Xbox 360 port. The classic Headless CJ glitch requires local two-player mode and a second character with a Katana. This port removed local multiplayer, so the PS2 and original-Xbox method cannot be performed here. The entry is retained to clarify why old guides list it.

Can a Sadler Trick Barbara into Dating CJ?

Older guides claim that arriving in a Sadler with a Grove Street Families passenger adds the companion's weight to CJ's and bypasses Barbara's preference. This method is not reliable enough to recommend. The dependable options are to meet her body-stat preference or collect all 50 Oysters, which removes optional girlfriends' physical requirements.

Earn a Stunt Bonus During a Mount Chiliad Race

Version-sensitive method: during a Mount Chiliad cycling race, use the wooden ramp near the start to perform a difficult stunt before the event repositions CJ. Some releases still award an Insane Stunt Bonus. The payout depends on the stunt, so this is neither guaranteed quick money nor an infinite-money exploit.

Wear Night-Vision Goggles as a Cosmetic Item

Version-sensitive glitch: equip Night Vision Goggles and use an arcade machine. On some releases, the green visual filter disappears when CJ leaves while the goggle model remains on his head. The same cosmetic effect has been reported with Thermal Vision Goggles, but it should not be guaranteed for every Xbox 360 build.

Create a Fountain in the Sea

From a boat in deep water, throw a Satchel Charge into the sea and detonate it. On some attempts, the splash effect continues indefinitely and looks like a small fountain. This is an intermittent visual glitch, so it may not trigger every time.

Increase Cycling Skill on a Train

Version-sensitive glitch: older releases allow CJ to ride a bicycle onto a stopped train and keep pedalling as it begins to move. The fast-spinning wheels can raise Cycling Skill even though the bicycle stays on the train. Control layouts and collision behavior differ in the 2014 port, so do not rely on copied PS2 button prompts; get off the train if the setup becomes unstable.

Carry Katie and Barbara's Perks into a New Game

Legacy PS2 glitch, not confirmed for Xbox 360: on some original releases, starting a new game without fully resetting after loading a save with Katie's or Barbara's perk could carry that state into the new playthrough. The mobile-derived 2014 port handles game state differently, so this is retained as historical context rather than an Xbox 360 instruction.

Infinite Camera Film in Photo Opportunity

Completing Photo Opportunity awards CJ a Camera with infinite film. Failing the mission is not required, so the old failure method should not be described as the trigger. The Camera Gallery removed from the 2014 port is a separate feature and does not prevent normal Camera or Snapshot use.

Keep the Burglary Mask

Legacy, version-sensitive glitch: older guides start a Burglary mission outside a barbershop and time a haircut to finish as the mission timer expires, allowing the mask to remain on CJ. Do not reuse the old PlayStation prompts on Xbox 360, and do not guarantee the method without reproducing it on the 2014 port. The mask disappears after changing clothes, being Wasted or being Busted.

Keep Cesar's Special Savanna

Version-sensitive vehicle method: after High Stakes, Low-Rider, Cesar's locked Savanna can carry special resistance flags. Classic guides make Cesar leave the car, then push or tow it into an owned garage. The port may handle mission vehicles and protection flags differently, so use a separate save and do not treat the car as universally indestructible.

This is legacy footage of the classic method, not proof that every protection flag persists in the 2014 Xbox 360 port.

The Melting Bike Glitch

Unavailable legacy method: older console releases let players rapidly alternate the Mountain Bike's reverse and manual-pedal inputs to stretch CJ's model and make it look as though he is melting into the ground. The 2014 port removed rapid manual pedalling, so the classic recipe cannot be reproduced as written. It provides no gameplay advantage.

Xbox 360 Basketball Controls

With the classic Xbox 360 control layout, press B while CJ is holding a basketball to spin it or X to move it around his shoulders. Click the right stick at the court beside the Johnson House to begin the Basketball Challenge after it has been unlocked. If a remapped control scheme is active, use the corresponding on-screen actions.

GTA San Andreas Xbox 360 Cheats FAQ

Which Xbox 360 version does this guide cover?

It covers the Xbox 360 HD port released in 2014, which is derived from the mobile version. It is not the 2005 original-Xbox release and it is not Grand Theft Auto: The Trilogy – The Definitive Edition.

How do you enter GTA San Andreas cheats on Xbox 360?

Enter the buttons in order during normal gameplay without pausing. Use the D-pad for directions. The game displays Cheat Activated when it recognizes a combination.

Why does an Xbox code not work on Xbox 360?

The 2014 port uses an unusual shoulder-button layout: its bumpers and triggers are inverted relative to many Xbox One, Series X|S and Definitive Edition lists. Use the combinations on this page exactly as written. Also make sure CJ is in normal gameplay rather than a menu or cutscene.

Do these codes work through Xbox backward compatibility?

Yes, if the console is running the backward-compatible Xbox 360 2014 port. The hardware does not change the game's input table. If the installed game is The Definitive Edition, use the dedicated remaster guide instead.

How is this version different from the original Xbox and The Definitive Edition?

The 2005 Xbox release used Black and White buttons, the 2014 Xbox 360 port remaps those inputs across triggers and bumpers, and The Definitive Edition uses a later control scheme and removes some classic effects. Codes should never be copied between the three lists without checking the version.

Is there an infinite-money cheat in GTA San Andreas on Xbox 360?

No. The 2014 Xbox 360 port has no true infinite-money code. Enter RT, RB, LT, A, Left, Down, Right, Up, Left, Down, Right, Up to receive $250,000, full health and full armor; repeat it for another $250,000.

Does the infinite-health cheat make CJ completely invincible?

No. It gives near-infinite health against many attacks, but CJ can still die from explosions, drowning, long falls, being run over and the destruction of the vehicle he is occupying.

Is there an all-taxis-have-nitro cheat on Xbox 360?

Yes. Enter Up, A, Y, A, Y, A, X, RB, Right to give every Taxi and Cabbie rechargeable nitrous and a boost jump. Completing 50 Taxi Driver fares unlocks the same upgrades permanently through normal gameplay. This is a taxi upgrade, not a Maximum Stamina cheat.

Do cheats disable achievements or prevent 100% completion on Xbox 360?

Cheats disable Xbox achievements for the affected save. The in-game 100% statistic is separate, but pedestrian-hostility, Riot Mode and themed-world cheats can still disrupt missions or saved progress. Use a dedicated cheat save and preserve a clean file for achievements and completion.

Is it safe to save after using cheats on Xbox 360?

Do not overwrite your clean progress. One-time effects such as money or vehicle spawns are different from persistent world-state cheats, but achievements may still be disabled and some pedestrian or riot effects are unsafe to reverse. Save experiments only in a dedicated slot.

Can Xbox 360 cheats be turned off?

Some effects toggle when the same combination is entered again, but there is no universal off switch and some world-state changes are unsafe to reverse. Reload a clean save or restart the game for the most reliable reset.

Do these Xbox 360 cheats work in The Definitive Edition?

Not as a complete set. Compatibility and shoulder-button mapping are different, and some classic effects were removed. Use the dedicated GTA Trilogy Definitive Edition Xbox cheats guide for that version.

Does the 2014 Xbox 360 port have local multiplayer or the Headless CJ glitch?

No. This port removed local two-player mode, so the classic second-player Katana method for Headless CJ is unavailable.

Is there a BMX spawn cheat on Xbox 360?

No. The 2014 Xbox 360 port has no working BMX spawn combination. BMX bikes must be found in the game world.

Sources and Verification

The Xbox 360 button matrix was compared with CheatCC's Xbox 360 reference and GTA Base's Xbox 360 and Xbox One comparison. Effect descriptions were also cross-checked against the reconstructed GTA San Andreas cheat implementation. Conflicting labels and uncertain 2014-port behavior remain in the compatibility table rather than being presented as independently verified effects.
