I've been having troubles with my Nether Portal I built at the top of a tower near the sky box. I first entered it and everything ran smoothly, no problems. Spawned me in a nice spot with a good view of everything, I proceeded to encase the portal in cobblestone as to protect it from Ghasts and the sort, then upon trying to re-enter the portal recently its been freezing at the load screen "Entering The Nether". I've tried making new portals in various places but to no avail, same thing. I can enter The Nether on my other seeds, and my friend's games, but just not this seed. I have made it a point to play on Hard mode, and I've done a lot of painstaking work with leveling, enchanting, building, and collecting. I could really use some help if anybody is listening to help me figure out, or resolve this problem if at all possible. I would really hate to have to start a new Hard Survival seed just because of a bug.

Hmm... There was a bug like this, fixed in a previous update. Exact same thing would happen. Hopefully they can easily patch it again. Hope this helps, when they fixed it, I didn't have to make a new world.

I moved all my savegames to the cloud, reinstaled minecraft then build an other portal in creative, that worked so I quit the game without saving it, then I used my portal in survival and it didn't freeze on me! Can't tell what part in that process resolved my nether problem though! Hope that helps

Happened to me when I was on a friends world. Try clearing the cache. It works sometimes.

Is your minecraft up to date? That was one of the first bugs that were fixed.

Fixed it. I had to make another portal way off on another part of the map. I guess it just glitched out or something. The original portal is also accessible now. Thanks for the tips though guys.

This exact thing happened to me yesterday, and I did exactly that in order to fix it.
I thought it may have had something to do with me putting Obsidian behind the portal as well, but I guess not.
Weird....

It was indeed fixed but since the TU7 update it sometimes happens again!

I've also noticed if you're running along a wall you get caught on some invisible thing, like you clip in between some of the blocks your running against would be my guess. It only happens when sprinting I believe.

Ive had this some times. I have not found a solution yet but try a seed...You can get loads on the internet. Just type in google, 'Minecraft Xbox seeds'. Hope this helps

Happens to me too I just destroyed portal to prevent other players going in preventing me from getting potions as my first and only trip was cut short by the large amounts of magma cubes and ghasts
