Hi All
I purchased my HTC this last Saturday, it was tough decision between S3 or One X
Anyways got myself a shiny new black One X !!
All was going well till now, I am still getting the battery properly charged so will not comment or raise any complains there since the battery is new and needs to be charged for atleast for a full week to show its potential
Anyways I work in night shifts, so came to the office and the battery was at 50% or so... I then connected to the office's Wifi network which uses a D-link router.
After sometime maybe 20-30 mins left the Wifi on and the phone was connect to my office's network ... it rebooted itself !!! I thought maybe something went wrong and ignored it
Then after 20 mins or so again when the phone was locked and sleeping and still connected to the WiFi of my office it did it again.
Then again after 20 mins or so rebooted while the phone was sleeping and this time it did not come on by itself but I had to press and hold the power button to get it turned on again
All this rebooting caused my phone's battery to come down at 18% thats when I connected it to the charger and while it was charging it WAS CONNECTED TO THE WIFI AS WELL... STRANGELY ENOUGH THE PHONE DID NOT REBOOT EVEN ONCE....
So this issue for me only coming when the phone is on wifi for sometime and when the phone is not being charged ... THIS DOES NOT HAPPEN ON 3G SIGNAL FOR ME ONLY FOR WIFI..
I have not tested this with my home network which I will today by letting on run on my home Wifi and see if reboots on its own again or not
FYI: I DONT HAVE ANY ANTENNA PROBLEM, MY WIFI COMES AT FULL STRENGTH AND IT DOES NOT GO DOWN OR UP WHEN I PRESS THE TOP PART OF MY PHONE.. SO I DONT HAVE THAT COMMON WIFI PROBLEM
does anyone else face or faced this similar issue ??? if yes then is there any solution or do I have a faulty HOX??
Thanks in advance for your suggestions, comments or solutions..
P.S : My phone is currently running on Stock HTC One X Rom but I have unlocked the bootloader and also rooted the phone with CWM & Super User installed...

My Artemis gradually stopped working with my SIM card, calls started getting dropped, I started not being able to receive calls. After a while, it would lose connection to the network whenever I would try to place or receive calls. I could have one phone call mine and I would watch it lose connection to the network. Then, I tried a different SIM, and it worked again. I placed and received calls easily to my SIM in a different phone. I got my SIM replaced and it worked fine again with my Artemis.
Then, a new problem started appearing: it would randomly shut down without warning, while I was in the middle of a communication. It has shut down during a phone call, while I have been using GPRS or WLAN, and even once in the middle of sending an SMS. It has always been during communications, though. It has never been with a warning. It tries to start up and gets to the "Windows Mobile 6.1" screen before cycling again, unless I force it off and leave it for a few hours. It can shut off with up to 80% charge reported, and after turning it back on, it has 1% charge reported and a message to replace the battery. The way it looks to me is that a communication is eating up almost the entire battery at once. Is this a battery problem? Or a phone problem?
Thanks for helping.
P.S. I have tried different Radio ROMs, but have not flashed a different full ROM since the problem started. I have, however, reflashed the same ROM once, to no avail.
EDIT: I have the problem fixed, it was a battery issue, for those who are experiencing the same problem
Bump: I have now flashed gullum TouchFlo2d beta 5 on my Artemis, and still the same problem. I have not changed the radio ROM since the flash (but different radios have done nothing in the past). I can keep the phone on for days before it reaches 0% battery, but all communications drain the battery completely in a matter of seconds. I still get the low battery warning after (not before) rebooting while plugged in to a power source.
Bump. I have since gone back to using my old phone, as it is unacceptable to be able to send three SMS before the battery dies. Would you recommend ordering a new battery and trying it out?
Communications uses up a lot of juice so I'd try a new battery. Problem is, where is a good place to get batteries?
Well, batteries are rather cheap on eBay. I jus don't want to spend money on a new battery and then not need it, like I did with my last phone. I understand that communications uses up battery quickly, but draining a full charge in several seconds just from GPRS makes me wonder - is it a phone problem? Is the battery even being emptied, or is the phone really crashing?
I ordered a new battery, and it has finally arrived, and the old one apparently wasn't holding much of a charge. I can now use GPRS and SMS for more than 5 minutes before it turns off. What a relief.
So i replaced the Screen/Lcd on the LG G3 phone worked fine for a couple of days now when the phone is searching for a network it shuts down after about 10 seconds, when i plug the phone into the charger it works with half the radio power and the phone is really hot so im assuming the phone is draining to much battery power and making the phone shut down, i had a thought it could be the radio booster but im not phone tech and i do not know how to fix this, Anyone had this issue know of a fix or do i have to get a new motherboard,
Thanks!
Hi guys,
I have an HTC One X+ 64GB.
My phone is kinda dead. It used to randomly switch off since the last month or so, irrespective of whether the phone was heated or no. My phone had fallen down once in-between about a fortnight ago. Even after the fall, the phone worked perfectly fine. Then on sunday, i don’t know why i downloaded the flipkart app. The phone felt slow after that, so i thought I'd uninstall it during the day but i got busy with other things and i didn’t do it. Later during the day, the phone would switch off once disconnected from the charger but it would remain powered up and functional so long as it was connected to the charger. Same was the case yesterday i.e. monday.
But last night, i.e., tuesday, before going to bed, i wanted to make sure the alarm would ring. So i set it for 2 mins later. it didn’t ring. when i connected the charger and tried switching on the phone, it just wouldn’t.
So now, it just switches on for a couple of seconds till the quietly brilliant logo screen and then switches off as soon as it reaches the home screen…battery is showing to hold a good charge. phone is not heated up either.
I tried the power button and volume down keys but before making a selection, the phone switches off. Sometimes it shows the message that battery too low to flash??
Would really appreciate some help. I don't know whether this is some internal screen connection problem or whether i need to get the factory reset done and all will be okay.
Thanks in advance!!

Did you get it working again. or is it fried? Mine is doing the exact same thing, except I saw it die. I was playing Poke,om Go and he phone was NOT hot when it died. None of te "standard" power on methods have worked.....
Battery got very weak due to which phone was not turning on,opened the device and disconnected the battery and then again connected back the battery got started charging and phone was back again working no data lost or any lost only battery problems still if battery is not high phone turns off.
Check for Battery problems

Try to open the device using tools for opening screws and disconnect the battery pin and then connect connect it back again check if phone is charging or not.There's youtube tutorial video for opening firephone.
Mine sometimes takes vacations when it will not turn on

I had 7% battery and was on call, phone had shutdown suddenly and won't turn on or CHARGE.
When I press power button it just vibrates Twice. I had connected charger but it won't charge.
Besides it vibrates continuously every few (2-3) minutes (even without doing anything.).
I tried the following.
1). Charged overnight and tried on....Didnt work.
2). Opened the back panel and removed battery to mother board connection few times and connected back......it just vibrates . that's it
Pls help! Its out of warranty.

Let me know hoe it goes, because Im having the exact issue. I tried the steps from sukhwant717, but getting stopped at the step when it goes to the OS. Will keep my phone to charge for a few hours. I observe, that there is no heating up (battery), but will keep it for charging anyways.
Cheers

Thanks man....I did actually fix the phone...your awesome.....
It went something like this...
First phone refused to turn on....no charging light notification..it keeps vibrating.
Even @sukhwant717 method stopped at "os" thing.
After exhausting all option taken to a local service person who did something and told phones dead.
After coming home I have checked He RIPPED /SNAPPED ANTENNA cable.
I didn't bother much as phone was prononced dead!
After 30 to 40 days was casually reading @sukhwant717 thread and thought of trying again. I coonected charger and SUDDENLY I SAW ASUS BOOT SCREEN and phone was showing BATTERY WITH QUESTION MARK. I let it charge for sometime suddenly bootloader screen appeared but was not entering into recovery.(perhaps damaged bootloader , recovery).
Then I followed sukhwant717 method flashed bootloader and RAW image using ADB.
and phone RESURRECTED but with very low siganl.
It's due to RIPPED antenna cable.
And was getting good reception on 2nd SIM (perhaps uses different antenna/cable)
So I decided to order new Antenna Flex Cable but it's not available in India. So I went to ASUS SERVICE CENTER (near Brandfactory) in Hyderabad
and asked them the cost of Flex Cable, they said they won't sell spares...I have to RMA.
So I did and after two days I have received a call from them that "ITS FAULTY MOTHERBOARD" and will cost 11000 INR (USD 170, seriously ASUS),I said I rather want my phone in previous condition. I even told them to fix antenna cable ...I will manage.
They said their "TESTING SOFTWARE " failing device test even after connecting antenna cable.so they can't sell a part for a TEST FAILED device.
I told them it's because I had unlocked bootloader..the test is failing.they didn't have a clue abt bootloader unlcoking.
So again went to local market for the cable found A cable (though lil longer) and got it fixed for about 300INR ($5).
and got back the reception and typing with LTE connection on ZF2.
Thanks again @sukhwant717 ...
My observations: the issue could be due to
1) it's battery related issue (completely drained bir failed battery)
2) damaged bootloader
The people who have similar problem should leave the phone uncharged for 30 to 40 days even more and connect the charger and see if u see battery with ? Mark.
Or if new battery is available change battery and check....

if you need antenna cable i can send you. but before that. send me pics of motherboard where antenna connector sits. don't ever believe local and service center guys. they are dumb enough to ruin things.

I had a similar problem, phone suddenly powered itself off and started vibrating. With the phone off and connecting the charger it started to charge, but after a while it started vibrating and overheating. I did a factory reset but the problem persisted. I flashed the raw firmware and it behaved properly for a while, but a few days ago the phone died. It does not turn on, does not charge, screen never turns on, no notification light, no vibration. But if connected to the charger it gets hot.
Left the mobile alone and tried to plug in after 35 days, IT WORKED. At first nothing happened but left it in charge for few hours. Later the mobile came back to life when I tried to turn it on..... 3 days in and still working just like it used to.... will have to take care not to let the battery drain below 20%
I am having same issue .. did you get it resolved ? Any luck ?
hello i'm having the same problem
will this method ensure that my data won't be lost?

can you tell me a bit more? i've got the same problem, you didn't download any drivers and just left the phone alone?
