Yesterday night I was watching some YouTube videos on my One X over Wifi until I got the low battery alert. The phone was hot at the back, near the camera area. I put the phone to charge and went to sleep. I noticed that the LED was blinking alternate green and orange, which according to other threads is an overheat indicator.
I left it like that. Now I wake up in the middle of the night, try to wake up the phone to see time. The One X will not power on and will not charge anymore. Taking it to the shop in the morning.

Hey man, I can tell you that I had something similar to that except the thing with LED. My battery was dead and I had to charge it... It was on usb and when I was trying power on the htc it wasn't reacting. I had to plug it on the power to make it work... Which is actually not normal that the usb wasn't enough...

Had some similar problem too. Overheating charging through wall.
Let it charge for a while in usb port and try to reboot again.
Same thing happened to me. Was playing a game until battery died. I held the power button down for a 30 seconds and it came back to life.

Blinking green and red means the phones too hot and as a safety thing will not charge, let the phone cool before you charge it

Thank you for your replies guys. I know that blinking green and orange means the phone is too hot. I let it cool for couple of hours and then tried charging. It will not charge. I tried connecting to power and to usb, left it for a while.. no activity.
I also tried other methods above, like holding power on for a longer time etc. The phone's still dead. Not powering on, not charging..
Return to the seller because is a hardware fault. Or call to htc.

I took the phone back to MediaMarkt and they gave me a new phone
My previous phone had yellow tint at the bottom, had it for 3 weeks. This new one does not seem to have any issues so far. It's made in China as opposed to earlier which was from Taiwan.

My HTC One X isn't charging, the red flashing light flashes red and green when i plug it in and continues to do that. Can anyone help me?
try volume and power and see if it resets it,
if not then you have a faulty battery or connection or something, return and replace

Mine just did that then. I have been using it while charging though and it's gotten quite hot. I suspect it's an overheating warning for me at least.

I've only gotten it to do it once. Was using the phone quite heavily. Perhaps more moderate use would not make it overheat during charge at least.
Mines charging fine now that I'm not hammering it..
The only way is to wait until it cool down, or use it on a cool room

Seriously? Is this supposed to be constructive?
Help a guy out, say you have the same issues or feel for the guy.
But what do yo mean with volume and power?
Do you mean go into recovery and delete batterystats?
I am probably gonna return my HOX.
I also have major screen flickering issues.
HTC have also said that there have been manufacturing faults
It's an HTC overheat warning - holding the power button whilst plugged in & selecting reboot should stop the flashing lights, then allow it to cool down for just a few minutes.
I've seen this, only when doing multiple benching.

Since you said that the phone meet the floor I can guess that may be a hardware fault. If with the phone off you connect to the charger an no reacction, you only can chek for another charger. Its OK if you use almost any usb charger, but the minimal power of the charger (see the label on the charger) need to be 750 mah, and the recommended is 1 A. (always at 5v). I use a asus nexus 7 charger witch is 2A, so I can handle charge and power consumption. Anyway. If your phone is not charging and you tried at least 3 chargers and 2 cables its time to open the phone. There is a guide on youtube (sorry I cant search for it right now), that show you how to open the HTC One X, so you can check the battery connection to the phone. Trty to disconnect and connect it again, and without reassemble the phone connect carefully to the charger and see what happen. If not charging and assuming that you dont have where to carry the phone, I would try to charge the battery pack outside the phone (3.7v Li battery charger) and then put it again on the phone and see what happen. I'm like 70/30 % that is the connector (30% that some on the mainboard broken)
Hope I help you
Since long time I had a problem with charging. I had it on charger and didn't charge. It said that I use more power than charger can give me. It was the same when the fine was off some times. It looks like charging but after some hours power was complete down. Be four some days it switched of batter and never opened again. Neither charging. I tried before some months and changed the battery but still had the problems. I tried yesterday to change again the battery and put the old one that had some power to take my files from mobile. I tried to put it to charger and the light goes green and red and don't charging. The fine has no power no and it's close again
i have noticed twice in the last week that when i take my phone off charge in the morning it has been dead... like it was never charging. is this a faulty device or is it common for everyone
doesn't sound right. check whats eating up the battery at night, might be a dodgy app but sounds like a dodgy battery
Sometimes if it's using a lot of power it will be drawing more than the charger gives and still use up the battery. Make sure there aren't any programs running or large amounts of data being transferred on data networks.
It's really bad to run the battery all the way down. If you can't figure out what it is, it may be worth sending it in for service/replacement.
That happens to me with bricked kernel, are u using it?

Id suspect faulty usb/ charger if they move ever so slightly on worn bad cords itl drop charge even tho it was chsrging when u set it down for the night
I know.i have about 5 extra chargers two of them do this everytime
Suspect a charger before u suspect a 600$ phone

okay, i have an update.. this is freaking weird. i have a video and picture of this for proof. the phone was sitting on my desk with the screen off unplugged from the charger.. and then the screen and charging light come on, followed by a beep, and sure enough the charging animation was there... but the phone wasnt plugged in.. i started playing with it and a message popped up saying the phone is using more power than the charger can discharge... 'BUT YOUR NOT PLUGGED IN' :S
i will take it back tomorrow and try for my 5th faultless phone :S sigh*
Has anyone else had an issue like the following
1. phone is off (0%)
2. Plugin charger
3. Red light activates (charging while off)
4. Random amount of time passes eg. 30 mins phone boots up by itself
???
Can anyone explain?
is the phone faulty or charger maybe the cause?

Your not really supposed to run the battery down to zero. It could be designed to boot automatically if the battery had been below a certain amount and it turned off due to that... Not that i have anything to back that theory up...

A Possible cause could be damaged usb port (charging port). Get it to service center.

yreah, i have returned it via optus elf... should have a brand new one within the week
i noticed that then my phone is on charge, the screen becomes really unresponsive, it take at least five times until i can unlock it, and as soon as i unlock it automatically phone app opens by it self. really annoying issue, i cant use my phone when it is being charged. it doesnt get too hot or anything, just the screen is very unresponsive.
anyone else have it?
i had the phone running this morning with over 50% charge. i put it on charge to get it to the max before getting to work.. then the phone hanged and switched off..since it has happened before when the phone overheats, i thought it will reboot but since then its not detecting the charger. When i start charging the phones battery area heats up but the charging led is not seen. the dealer told me to charge it for an hour and try but that also didnt work..
any opinions or past experiences like this??
Can you boot into HBOOT? Power plus volume down.
Not sure if its the same thing but over the last 2 nights mine has done something similar and it is annoying the hell out of me!
On the first night as usual i switch my phone off (with about 10% battery left) and plug it in to the charger, wait for the charging light to come on, and go to bed. In the morning no light on and phone won't switch on? After a while of unplugging and plugging back in, pressing random buttons and head scratching the red light comes back on and i can start it up but the battery is completely flat and have to charge it up again?
Same thing happened again last night but this time i had about 50% battery??? Haven't looked into it properly yet as i thought it was a fluke but obviously its not! I'm running stock untouched phone so trying other roms etc isn't an option atm.
Will let you know if i find anything ;-)

@iTeeXDA-Hboot also didnt work..tried it a lot...my local dealer asked me to charge it for a long time and try it....didnt work out though after an overnight charge.
i have same problem. I couldn't open. And not charging.
Just an update
Phone charged as it should last night, so nothing to report yet

Ok so i have had a few days of no problems but just woke up to another completely flat phone? It had 45% battery when i put it on charge and the charge light came on. When i woke up it had no light on and completely flat battery, it wouldn't switch on !!? Unplug the charger and plug it back in and then after a minute the charge light comes on and you can turn it on?? This is very annoying as last time it happened was at a weekend but i have to go to work now without a phone as I have no way to charge it :-(
This is a real pain as it doesn't always happen and when it does I'm asleep so i don't know till its too late?

Flashed Lifeless last night. Everything was working fine, left the phone charging at 10% then today I wake up to a dead phone. Wont charge, wont boot. Only sign of life is holding the power button down for like 20 sec and the battery LED will turn on for like 20 sec but only if its plugged in. What gives? Anyone have any idea what might be going on?
Plug into a 2 amp charger or do a battery pull.

Same thing has happened to me! I have done a battery pull as well with no avail. I am using a 1.2 A charger, the one that came with my phone and still nothing. I can get the red light as well but nothing else. I have pronounced the Phone as DEAD and have already bought a new phone(funds are tight so it was a was crappy situation). If ANYONE has a real working solution to this PLEASE tell us!(I'd greatly appreciate it)

Similar situation
I'm on stock but had the same problem. Phone totally discharged, plugged it into my car charger, phone got hot by camera but did not charge. Got home plugged it into stock charger, same thing. Battery charging on screen, phone hot, then dim light on screen. tried for a day or so, no luck.
Tried holding power button for 20-30 seconds, nothing, Vol up and down + power, nothing. By accident held power and vol up and charging light came on, held it for a minute, and it stayed on, let go, out it went. As a last resort, put two rubber bands around the phone to hold in power and Vol up and bingo! Charging light stayed on! left it overnight and found the phone completely charged in the AM, green light flashing. Been working fine for days, Willnot let it get too low of a charge in the future.
Hello guys,
So I have a problem with my HTC M9, when I plug it in all I get is a blinking red light (not solid red light as it should be when charging) and the screen wont turn on or indicate anything.
The blinking light stops and goes off after about 5mn after I plugged in, and when I press the Power button it starts blinking again.
I have tried to press the Volume Up & Down + Power button (and all other combinations of these 3 buttons) while it's plugged in but it didn't work.
I have also replaced the battery with a new one but still the same problem.
So are there any suggestions to fix this issue.
