Is it possible for a seed to not generate an End Portal? I follow my Eye of Ender to the spot where the portal should be. I've dug down and found a tiny 4 room dungeon with no portal. I've spent four actual days digging all around the outside of the dungeon and found nothing else. Is this a glitch or am I screwed and must start over with a new seed?
No, I've never encountered an Xbox 360 world without an intact end portal since, I believe, TU10, when 4J forced the program to include 1 intact end portal in every world (and, in the past, I've done a lot of searching and finding for others here on the forums). The stronghold can be "cut up" so that you'll have to dig through the stone to find other sections of it (and you will find other sections). I would gladly search for you... except that they have now fixed the X-ray glitch so searching for others has become a LOT more time consuming... so I'm not going to be inclined to do it anymore. Sorry.
The only exception would be IF you generated part of the world, then an update came that changed the location of the end portal BEFORE you generated the remainder of the world... AND the end portal happened to move from the previously ungenerated section into the previously generated section of the map. Highly unlikely really.
I have found a few that were hidden behind walls especially in the rooms where the stairs go over the doorway like a bridge running into a wall. Usually if you dig straight through those walls you will find another section.
I FOUND IT!! Thanks for taking the time to read my post. I dug a little futher and found the portal. It was a few meters behind a wall and a lava lake!

It's best to post your seed, so anyone with time can check for you.

Ok. Here's the seed:

The portal is there. Sometimes they are hidden well.
