Open the cover! Remove the battery and charge!
take a video also for show for others how to open.
And also check if the memory is micro sd!

What state is your rom in? Can you boot at all?
M.
Edit - some people have had luck with this charging method. Plug in to charger, phone will boot and for about 6-7 seconds you'll get a red charging light. When that turns off pull the plug power down phone (long hold power if you need to). Very slow process but it will get you there eventually.
From what you've said, you should still be able to boot the phone normally to charge it.
Re-locking the bootloader and installing a different recovery shouldn't have done naything to your boot.img or ROM.

thanks i will see this.
I discover something great for any guy who brick his HTC ONE X.
Only signed recovery can CHARGE the phone when it is power off (suspended), if you have any other CWM installed, doens't matter, try to start the os en left it alone and connect it to the power, no lights appears, but the phone never go off, that means you are charging it!!! (i see this because i have the splash screen of my villain rom installed). 1 hour and the screen still sppearing, this means that the battery is charging it
Now i start to charge my phone and im going to let you know any news about my bricked one X.
You can also try to boot in rom in safe mode and charge phone. when you boot you have to hold both volume+ volume- will be boot faster...I find accidentaly last night.
I solve it!
Now i know. HTC One X is unbrickable. Or you can really brick if you stop a bootloader flashing...

Check this little script to charge your phone.
Also, requested moving to Q&A
Thanks Ive got it charging now with that script, do i unlock again and go to recovery or could you help me on what to do next ?
Yeah, go ahead and unlock, install CWM, and then flash the custom ROM of your choice
I was installing cyanogen mod 10 via CWM and everything went fine until I rebooted after installing. The phone would not reboot in to android.
The phone is stuck on a black screen with no power light showing - it vibrates if I try a hard reboot but that is the limit of what it's doing. When it was plugged in via USB the computer installed a couple of drivers but that's it as far as any form of life goes.
Does anyone have any ideas ?
Is your bootloader unlocked?
CM10 only works on unlocked bootloader.
If your bootloader is locked, use PCC or Update Service to repair your phone.

Do this -
1. Download stock ics ftf and prepare to flash it using Flashtool by androxyde
2. Press and hold the power and volume up combination until you get 3 vibrations
3. Now holding the volume down key, attach the usb cable and allow the flashing to get completed
4. Turn on your phone normally after the flashing and enjoy
Thanks.
I used the sony update service to get up and running again. As far as I was aware the bootloader was unlocked but presumably it was not which caused the problems ?

To turn it off completely, press and hold the volume up + power combination until you get 3 vibrations. At this point, your device will be completely turned off. Now in order to unlock your bootloader, kindly follow this guide - http://unlockbootloader.sonymobile.com/instructions
Good luck

It sometimes takes longer time to work. Did You get any sort of error on flashtool? Like error while flashing loader.sin? Also, does the phone get warm on the back side?

Hi guys, I'm very sorry if this has been solved already but I've been searching a lot now and none of the methods seemed to help me. I'm running a One X International. Until yesterday, I was running one of the older Cyanogenmod 10 Nightly builds but due to some performance issues and whatnot (nothing major), I decided to finally put in some work to update my phone to 10.1. My HBOOT was still on one of the older versions so after searching around, it seemed reinstalling the stock ICS and then doing some OTA updates would be the easiest way (for a n00b like me).
After doing so, I unlocked my bootloader again, re-rooted my phone, installed a newer version of CWM Recovery and finally flashed the latest stable build of CM 10.1. My first problem came after rebooting, where it would just hang at the Cyanogenmod ring loop and nothing else. I booted back to recovery and wiped everything (cache, data, dalvik etc.) and did a factory reset then reflashed the rom. This time it booted up but then, the "Unfortunately, the process com.android.phone has stopped." kept popping up. I literally can't do anything (there's a microsecond of space after I click OK before it would pop up again). I have read some people suggesting to others that they need to do a factory reset but I've tried doing that and it still didn't work. I've even tried installing the latest Nightly build of CM10.1 but it still didn't seem to make any difference.
Could someone please offer some advice? Thanks a lot in advance.
I had this problem and it was an hardware fault, so the only thing i could to was to send back the phone to HTC and get a new one...

I'm sorry, I'm not quite sure what you mean. Do you mean Boot image as in the bootloader? I didn't touch the bootloader except that it got upgraded whilst I updated the official HTC rom and also when I unlocked it. But I did erase everything before flashing.

Thanks a lot! I can't right now because like an idiot, I was in a rush before coz I had to leave for a few hours and really needed my phone so I thought maybe I'd try redoing the process. I got to the stage where I relocked the bootloader, factory reset, erased the rom, cache and pretty much everything but then I had to leave. Now that I'm back, the phone is out of battery coz I had it plugged in but it just wouldn't shut down for some reason so the screen remained on the bootloader wasting a ton of battery. This had happened yesterday when I was doing this and the battery would charge really slowly since the screen was constantly on. Do you know why this is? I don't think it's a hardware issue since after installing the stock rom yesterday, it could turn the phone off through the bootloader, recovery or just in the actual OS.

the phone never charges in the bootloader ....as ur phone is off right now just plug it to a wall charger and leave it for around 2-3 hours and check if the Red LED turns on which will show that your phone is charging

Aha didn't know that! Well I did leave it on the charger before i left although it was on the bootloader so like you said, it didn't charge. But when i came back (several hours later), the screen was black and the red LED was not on. Again like an idiot, I tried to turn it on and it went into the bootloader although it said that the battery is critically low. I then tried restarting it and now it's staying on the HTC Quietly Brilliant screen. Does it charge here? The red LED is on. If i press power+vol down then it would go into the bootloader so i guess it's not bricked right?

nop its not bricked and if your phone is now on just press the power button for few seconds until the 3 buttons flash and it wll turn off and when your phone will have enough battery charged it will automatically turn on (my htc one x do this) and dn you continue the steps dat i told you

Hmm i still can't turn it off. After holding the power button and waiting for the 3 buttons to flash, it would just reboot into the HTC screen. But it seems to be charging because when I booted into the bootloader just then, it doesn't say "power critically low" anymore.
By the way, whilst we're on the subject, do you know if it's possible to disable the ability to restart the phone by holding down the power button even when the phone is locked? I have quite a bulky case (from Ballistic) which makes the power button stick out a bit and sometimes when it's in my jeans and I kneel down to tie my shoelace, my leg would press into the button making the phone restart. This doesn't happen with the iPhone for example. on the iPhone, when the screen is locked, the power button doesn't give any response and even when the screen is unlocked, holding down the power button will only display the option to shut it off. This has always annoyed me on the One X (don't know if this is the case for other Android phones).

Yeah I guess that's the only solution then. Glad I'm not the only one!
I just got home and it looks like I was wrong. The phone's screen was off and no red LED lights were showing even though it's plugged into the wall. I disconnected it and waited a few seconds and then reconnected it and after a couple of minutes, the red LED came back but it also started up into the bootloader automatically...this thing just won't stay off!! I will see what happens after an hour or so but at the moment, I can't think of what else I can do to shut it off to charge it.
By the way, as I said earlier, I have now resetted everything, cleared everything and relocked my bootloader. Can I flash the unlock_code.bin I got previously from HTC or has my Token ID changed now and I need to obtain a new one? I did a Google search and it sounds like it will have now changed but I just wanna make sure.
EDIT: ok I need to go to bed now but I just realised that the reason why it won't switch off is BECAUSE it is plugged in. After unplugging it and selecting Power Down from the bootloader menu, it's now switched off. But as soon as i plug it in again, the screen lights up again. I guess i have to leave it like this and hope that it charges overnight but I'm a bit worried that it's not so good for the screen not to mention it seems to get a little warm after awhile. We'll see...

Hi
I have a solution for you
make a batch file :
" @echo off
:start
fastboot getvar battery-voltage
fastboot reboot-bootloader
ping /n 6 localhost >nul
goto start
"
put this file in the directory where you have fastboot.exe adb.exe and all other
files , also put the unlock.bin file that you have from htcdev
put your phone to bootfsatusb , and run the batch file , you will see the voltage
off the battry each time it loop , after an hour or two you will have enough power(~3.68mv) to unlock it , then charge it and do what ever you want

I did that and left it for a couple of hours and then the battery was at a high enough level for me to get to work again. I went through everything again remembering to flash the boot.img before flashing my new ROM and now everything is working perfectly! By the way, that guide written by hasoon2000 made a mistake I think. He said to flash the boot.img AFTER flashing the new rom which I did but then still got that com.android.phone problem. But then I flashed it again BEFORE flashing CM10.1 and now everything is smooth as butter.
Anyways, thanks all for your help. I really appreciate it!

glad to know that your htc one x is running like a fire well that method is just to show the current battery level nothing else ...and i had flashed the boot.img after the room but it worked for me cux i did fix permission wipe davlik cache and partition cache too...on some roms it works for me and on some roms it doesnt..well its better if you flash the boot.img before installing the room well um glad to help you and sort out your problem
I was at work the night before, and my capacitive buttons stopped responding, so I went for a restart in hopes they would kick back on, this just caused my phone to enter a boot loop. Soft resetting and hard resetting both continue the loop, trying to enter recovery mode throws me back into the loop, entering download mode locks the phone on the small HTC screen. I tried to flash the current RUU onto the phone, but it won't proceed with the install due to a low main battery error despite the fact I've had it charging for 6 hours. The only thing I can think of doing now is sending it back in hopes they fix it, but theres a lot of information I ignorantly haven't backed up, and now can't access before sending it back.
If anyone has any helpful tips or ways to move forward I would be grateful.
you might be able to intervene in the process. when the phone restarts (ideally right after it restarts), hold Volume Down until the grey HTC logo appears, From here, you are in the download menu (or what is now basically the fastboot). If you are stock, you can unlock the bootloader if you havent already and flash a custom recovery (TWRP). Being in TWRP will give you USB access to your phone. And it will provide the ability to flash ROMs, including stock ROMs. Beyond that, you could always try a factory reset from either the download or the bootloader, but not much else I think you can do.
Someone might have more information than me though

Try the same thing, but this time with Volume Up, hold it until the FTM menu appears. From here, you should be able to access the bootloader.
If that also does not work holding Volume Up and Down at the same time takes you straight into the bootloader. Sadly, unless you are S-OFF, there is not a lot you can do from this menu. I dont think it accepts the fastboot commands, particularly fastboot flash commands. But if you can get into the bootloader, and then try each option, download, recovery, etc.
If you get into the recovery, it will be stock (unless you flashed a custom ROM). You have to press volume up twice to access the options, but if you get stuck, hold volume down and power and the touch keys on the bottom flash. After about 15 flashes the phone reboots.

Holding Volume up just continued the loop, I can get into the bootloader like you said, but theres not very many options, download locks the phone onto the HTC logo and doesn't proceed, the recovery option just restarts the phone into the loop.
Im afraid then, that I am out of suggestions for the time being.
Presumably your phone was charging whilst off, and not boot-looping?
Otherwise you can power down from the bootloader and try charging it. That may give you a better chance with the RUU

Mine does not charge either...and RUU does not work because of the battery < 30%
The funniest thing is that I've never touched this phone either (stock, no s-off, no unlock, no custom recovery, just updated via OTA to get Nougat), it just ran out of battery during the night and found the boot loop the morning after when I plugged it. Can't believe it could turn into a f...ing brick by itself.

No, I had to send it back to HTC and within 2 weeks they sent it back to me completely wiped and reset to factory.

My friends s7 completly bricked doing the N update. If you havnt done anything to your phone just take it back and get a new one.
Same exact issue here after the Verizon OTA update.
Failed after the first reboot after the update.
The storage was pretty maxed, wonder if that has something to do with it.

Try the same thing, but this time with Volume Up, hold it until the FTM menu appears. From here, you should be able to access the bootloader.
If that also does not work holding Volume Up and Down at the same time takes you straight into the bootloader. Sadly, unless you are S-OFF, there is not a lot you can do from this menu. I dont think it accepts the fastboot commands, particularly fastboot flash commands. But if you can get into the bootloader, and then try each option, download, recovery, etc.
If you get into the recovery, it will be stock (unless you flashed a custom ROM). You have to press volume up twice to access the options, but if you get stuck, hold volume down and power and the touch keys on the bottom flash. After about 15 flashes the phone reboots.
