Well it is one of the most common problem with Microsoft consoles. If you see your main logo freezing, it is due to the following reasons:

Overheating of console
Dust in hard drive
Magnetic interruption with console
Small space room for console
Or virus (rarely seen)

Above four are the most popular reasons which freezes your console. So try sorting these issues out by using a spacious room for your console, removing all surrounding electronic items which can magnetically interact with your console, and taking out hard drive and cleaning it with brush.

But if these things does not solve your problem, press and hold main console switch for like 10 seconds. It will reset all the cache and useless data from your console.

Still didn't work? Give your console away to the repair shop!

2) Playing games while signed into Xbox live, game freezes by showing black screen

Oh yes, the most common problem with every Xbox 360 you buy, new or old, somewhere it does this issue. There are some reasons, like you messed up somewhere in the system or maybe there are cache problems. Well you can sort it out quickly:

Go to your console setting, click to storage and then press (Y), then go to cache and clear it. Second, go to network setting, and forget and disconnect the WiFi connection or unplug the wired connection. Re install the connection again, connect to live and voilà, you are done!
