How long have you had the console? It could be worth sending it off for repair under warranty.

It's quite likely that some of the internal pieces inside the disc drive have been broken or have become misaligned. To find out you'll have to disassemble the disc drive and remove it from the outer metal case. You may have to compare it to pics online to see if anything is broken. There is a metal arm inside that often becomes dislodged and can cause the problem you are describing. If you can post some pics of the inside of it I can help more. Unfortunately I don't have any pics of video of how to do this at the moment.

If you put a few game cases (or something similar in size ) under the front of your xbox. So the front is higher than the back. It may help your xbox read a disk.

It's A temporary fix that may help get you by without spending money, and I've seen this work multiple times.

Ya it definitely sounds like there are some foreign objects inside the drive still, or something is broken. If you still have warranty, I would send it in to MS. If you don't (or you don't want to mess with MS), I have used these guys before to fix the problem.
