Battery wont charge past half - HTC One X

Geez, I don't want to return this phone already, I just finished setting everything up! Any ideas?
If you take a look at the right hand side, its been flat for a couple hours now.

Does the phone feel hot? Maybe try leaving it and not playing with it while it charges lol

The phone isn't hot. I was charging it this whole time on my PlayStation. I plugged it into the wall a few minutes ago and saw a small spike in the graph. I guess the culprit was my ps3. Ill how how it goes in another half hour or so

Erratic touchscreen while charging.

Has anyone else noticed this on the E4GT? I had this problem on my Evo when running Cyanogenmod, but not Sense. I've tried both the Sammy charger that came with it and my old HTC charger.
While charging, the touchscreen becomes erratic. It will input various places nowhere near where you're touching or sometimes not at all. It only happens while charging, remove the device from the charger and it goes back to normal.
Yes, there's a gigantic thread about this already. The gist of it is our touch screens are very finicky and if you use a non-voltage regulated charger (like inexplicably the one that comes with it) the screen will go nuts on it while charging.
I bought a Blackberry charger for it and it works perfectly while charging.

Flashing notification light

Hi, when I play games or watch movies on my one x it sometimes start to flash red - green on the notification light.
I think it only happens when I have the charger plugged in. Anyone know what it is? And if its any help, I'm running leedroids Rom.

I was thinking this but I'm not too sure, I was wondering if the one x charger would have higher power output due to the beastlyness of the phone. I however never use it because it's short...use an old blackberry charger seems to take about the same amount of time to charge tho

i thought it flashed like that when overheating?

Generally, those two circumstances tend to occur simultaneously!

Yup! Do NOT play games while charging...it is a sure way of pushing the thermal limits!

No, its pretty much an industry standard that micro usb chargers run 1A @ 5v
If the charger is really old it could be 800mA but not likely, easy to check though, just check between the pins on the plug

oh so its not overheating?
It's definitely overheating. I was watching an hd movie using sw code and charging (I had about 20% battery, so it was taking the whole amp), and the light began flashing. I quit the mx player and saw battery widget reporting 49 degrees Celsius and battery status was 'overheating' I have to mention though that I had my phone placed onto a pillow, so no chance of dissipating the heat whatsoever. I presume the same happens when you play a game and hold your phone. My advice is just to wait a while for the battery to go up enough, so the charger begins the slow cycle - then you'll be charging with a few hundred mA and it will be easier for the phone to handle the extra heat.

Well when the led flashed like that for me I was playing shadowgun and the battery dropped a percent over the time I was playing with it charging the whole time, but like someone said above both will happen. The phone was hot for sure
Sent from my HTC One X using xda premium
Well I used to have overheat problems as well but I fixed it by doing a hard reset. My phone doesn't overheat as it did before the reset and I can easily play games on the phone while charging. Even after a hard reset, my phone easily hits 43 degrees though. Just thought to share this with you guys.

I used my touchpad’s charger which is a 2A charger and it charges twice the speed. So you can try using any tablet's charger for a fast charge..

Battery life

Just a question been testing battery only on 3rd charge but is 20 hours of battery life with 3 hours screen on time good bad?
Sent from my HTC One X using XDA
Three hours of screen on time seems to be about the norm.

Never charging to 100%

Whenever i unplug the phone,the battery drops to 99%. Is it Normal or just me?

Happens to me too. Or if it does hit 100 it drops immediately to 99 the moment i take it off the charger.
Well It happened on my dad's E4GT too. But fascinate/OG Epic/Illusion/Evo 3d Which I own never did so!
Take a glass and fill it up with water until it overflows, think of this as your battery. Tip it just a little and you lose some, at which point you will not have 100% of the water anymore. The moment you take it off the charger, it would only make sense for it to immediately go to 99%

Looks like its a common problem! Thanx for ur inputs everyone.

Paper weight or possible fix?

Before getting my SGS3 I used flashed a CM9 nightly and all was fine. After switching over phones the day of the release I put my phone back in its box in my desk. I missed it and wanted to play around, check out new development, and actually my first SGS3 was stolen off the bar so would have loved it as a temp instead of a BB. But anyways I picked it up and plugged it in... nothing won't charge no matter what, I left the battery out for about an hour plugged back in, left it plugged in over night nothing worked. The phone worked perfectly before I put it in my desk and it was untouched...does this sound done for or is there something I can try. Appreciate the help in advance.

Have you pulled the battery yet? Leave it out for 30 secs.

Yes, I've done 30 seconds, 30 minutes, 24 hours. Still wont power on, it sucks I dont have an extra battery to test that aspect.

Your battery may be fully discharged. Then mobile phones are incapable of charging them. This happened to me with old phones but not recently.
What you have to do is to remove the battery and apply highcharge to it.
Take a powersource which is capable of giving about 6-7 volts dc and connect two wires from it to +ve and -ve terminals of your battery. Hold it like that for about minute or two. Not more. Then try to charge the battery without turning on the phone. If don't work try increasing voltage upto 12v

It was the charging port, not quite sure how it broke over night without it being touched. Luckily my brothers girlfriend has the dinc2 so I trialed my battery in her phone and it started charging. Any fixes for the port is that a customer service issue?

If you can hold off for about a week or so my little brother is using it as a loaner phone till his upgrade I'll pm you when he gets the s3 if you're interested.

OK sounds good thank you.

It is pretty easy to replace the charging port. I did it last week, it only took about 10 minutes and you can get the charging port for $7 on ebay. There are guides and videos on how to do it.
There's a thread on replacing the USB port, its like an 8 dollar part
