Addressing the DLC Achievement Issue

It has come to our attention that a small minority of players have encountered an issue with unlocking a couple of the DLC achievements - L.O.G. Master and L.O.G. Ranked Apprentice.

Note that this will likely be experienced by a very small subset of users (people who play the DLC for free with those who have bought the DLC, meet the achievement requirements, and then decide to upgrade and purchase the full version of the DLC later).

If you encounter the problem, please use the following guidance:

There have been some very rare incidents where players are unable to unlock either the L.O.G. Ranked Apprentice or the L.O.G. Master achievement from the new L.O.G.’s Lost Challenges downloadable content package.  Fortunately, it is a simple matter to unlock these achievements. If you have encountered this problem, all you need to do is clear your system cache, re-download the Title Update, and re-earn the achievements on a clean save file.  Here is a complete step-by-step walkthrough:

1 – Make sure you have purchased and downloaded L.O.G.’s Lost Challenges from Xbox Marketplace.
2 – Ensure you have at least one storage device without a Banjo save on it.
3 – Clear your system cache:
            a) On the Xbox Dashboard, navigate to My Xbox.
            b) Select System Settings.
            c) Select Memory.
            d) Select one storage device, and press Y.
            e) Press X, X, LB, RB, X, X.
            f ) Confirm the system maintenance message.
            g) Repeat for all storage devices.
4 – Launch Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts with an Xbox LIVE profile, and download the update when prompted.
5 – Press A at the title screen, and select the device WITHOUT a Banjo save on it when prompted. 
6 – Continue through the following steps for whichever achievement you need.

L.O.G. Master achievement
1. Enter a multiplayer lobby (it can be Xbox LIVE or Local).
2. Set the Match Choice to League and the League Type to Custom League.
3. Add the following games into the league: (Races) Terrarium Tussle, Iced Prix, Don’t Lose Your Nuts, (Sports) Downward Spiral, Don’t Flee the Nest, Hot Cargo!, King of the Knoll.
4. Play and win each game. This can be done without any other players present.  NOTE: These games can be won under any condition; the above method is simply the easiest and fastest way of attaining this achievement.

L.O.G. Ranked Apprentice achievement
1. Enter an Xbox LIVE multiplayer lobby.
2. Set the Match Type to Ranked Matches and the Playlist to L.O.G.’s Lost Challenges.
3. Let the game place you into a DLC game, which can be any one of the following: (Races) Terrarium Tussle, Iced Prix, Don’t Lose Your Nuts, (Sports) Downward Spiral, Don’t Flee the Nest, Hot Cargo!, King of the Knoll.

Win the match.  NOTE: It is possible to be placed into a DLC match in the other playlists, but the DLC playlist is the most reliable way to do so.  Each game also has team and individual variants, as well as Player’s Choice or LOG’s Choice vehicle selections, and winning any of the games in a Ranked setting will be sufficient to unlock this achievement.

Okay, so I have followed the steps in this guide to clear my cache and start up a LOG Ranked Match. I know what I did: won on a DLC map when I hadn't purchased the content yet. The achievement I need is LOG Ranked Apprentice and I have now downloaded the content necessary to receive the achievement. I follow every single one of the steps listed above and still the achievement does not unlock. Any help??

And also, in step 5:

5 – Press A at the title screen, and select the device WITHOUT a Banjo save on it when prompted.

It does not prompt me to select a save device, it just brings me to the main part. What am I doing wrong??
