A few users have reported a Blank Screen of Death, with myself included.
The problem being that the phone's display doesn't switch on when you wake up the device. At this time, Everything else will including the Digitizer and Capacitive buttons.
I have spoken with HTC service centers across Australia and NZ to come to the conclusion that this is a motherboard problem. The infamous flickering issue seems to be involved also, which ends up shorting out the video driver.
The issue isn't just limited to the screen not displaying anything either, there's also the possibility that the back light will cut out, and sometimes leading to corruption on the display.
This isn't just with some devices either, it seems like anyone that has had the screen flickering issue are at risk of this.
To give you an idea of how much it costs to fix this issue, I was quoted at $250 AUD for just the motherboard alone.
The best part is, HTC may also deny your warranty for unlocking your bootloader, as they have with me.
I'll be posting more information as it develops.
EDIT 29/07/12 :: I'm going to request a transcript of my last conversation with HTC but until then, they're denying that this is a problem and saying that it's the user's fault. How? We use our phones to much, or inappropriately.
It's becoming obvious that they're trying to avoid spending anymore money fixing these issues, and have decided just to move on and release a new One X model. (according to news sources.)
Also, Boobinator just posted a video of the One X's screen corrupting while it isn't stuck under the BSOD which you can see here and here
Just to recap.
When the initial issues were found with screen flickering and corruption on the display, we were told it was a software issue.
Many months later, I along with many of you are still experiencing it, even though it's not nearly as bad as it once was.
Now there are growing reports that One X's are starting to lose their displays, and the poly-carbonate weakening and bending the antenna pins. (You can find more information here)
This is something you should all be aware about when purchasing this phone.
Best of luck!

Update Bump
Maybe us in America can file a class action lawsuit? I'm no lawyer here but anyone with better understanding of American consumer laws chime in?
This is problem that occurs with normal usage of the phone.
Another day, another hardware issue. HTC is going down the drain, im hugely disappointed in the way they are handling this mess. Improper testing, too slow to fix problems or ignore/deny them. Bull**** games about unlocking and warranty and now they are already talking about releasing more phones. Its easier for them to move on to a new model than to do the right thing and do a complete recall. Is this a QC issue or a design flaw, with all the negative reports I'm thinking its the latter.
HTC better handle this properly, they need to stop development on all new products untill this is solved.

Can u please send me details about the store that sells the motherboard ?
I have the same problem...and I need my phone fixed !
Thx
Is this the same flickering that happens in some ROMs when you rotate the phone?
Mine too
This just started happening to mine Nothing displayed on the screen, but it still responds to inputs. Even rebooting into fastboot, same problem. So everything is functioning except the display.
Have just handed it back to vodafone for repair, don't like my odds with the unlocked bootloader though :/
I had this issue on Viper or Android Revolution, but not on other ROMs. But I'm starting to get wifi issue, scratches, scratches on camera lins. I should buy S3, not this.

sent it back because of flickering. I just hope they will fix the problem properly and change the motherboard.

This happened to my Incredible S too if any one's interested.....
I'm not buying the HOX, I'm sorry. There's just too many different issues for too many people with this phone. It's an expensive top of the line phone, that does appear to be pretty shoddy put together. I don't care if it's under warranty and I have dumbass-insurance if I break it, but I can't send my phone inn all the time even if it's free. You shouldn't have to send it in at all.......
I presume now know we know why HTC is loosing money, market share and their stocks are going down....
This happened to me too, about a month ago, the phones been in repair since then(1 month, are you freaking kidding me HTC). I also unlocked the bootloader, lets see whether HTC charges me or not.
Also, I managed to get the display to work(somewhat) after shaking the device a bit. But even after that the display wont work properly, I even have 2 short videos of the screen acting weird when i got it to work. Here they are - Video 1 Video 2
Sorry for the ****ty quality, got it on my iphone. This was after I shook the device and the display magically started working. Even with the display working you can see it is really weird, even unresponsive at times.
So guys, there are a lot of places you can buy motherboards from, but they will charge you a lot more than what it's worth mainly because of the shortage within HTC.
I'm so sorry all of you are going through this, but i think we need to raise awareness of this issue. People are buying these phones without realizing there's a good chance they're going to have either bad WiFi antenna's or even a bad motherboard.
Send this to your friends, post it around, contact HTC.
Best of luck!
I am having this problem as well, as well as the WiFi antenna issue. The WiFi antenna somehow bent itself somehow, because after a while it was back to normal signal strength, so I didn't feel like sending the phone away for a month. But now with this screen issue it really is unusable, so it seems I don't have a choice anymore
EDIT
Here is a picture of an example of what happens:

Heat damage.
I doubt it's heat damage, i hardly played games on mine and it had that problem. I think the most i played was Triple Town, and that was it.
Also, wouldn't it be a massive problem if it was heat damage? That means the tegra 3 processor can't handle stress, and given that the phone inherently has heating issues, this just draws the conclusion that the Tegra 3 is bad news?
it may be a faulty soc
From what I've heard, it's been linked directly to the flickering screen problem. Which could mean that the first batch of One X's have all faulty Soc's? I mean, it's not uncommon for there to be manufacturing difficulties for the first few batches, but this is just absurd.

For those who have problems with GPS on HTC ONE X i make a tutorial how to fix this.
This method work perfectly for me,and for other users.
If you are not scare to open your phone fallow this steps like in tutorial.
Method 1
1: open your phone to reveal what is inside
2: pull up those connectors shown in photo
3: close back
4: everifing is fix
Method 2
Instead of pulling up thouse pin ,use a soldering iron and put some soldering on the spot where pins touch the antena .
THIS WORKS BECOUSE AFTER THAT THE CONNECTOR APLY MORE PRESURE TO ANTENA AND NOW THE CIRCUIT IS COMPLETE
Hope this will fix all your problem with GPS, WIFI, Signal

I will attach a few screen shots with GPS test results after i fix the antena.
I will mentioned the sky was clowdly and it was raining
I m not responsible if anything happens with your personal phone
This method worked perfectely for me
Excellent - this is the only thing that actually fixes this hardware issue.
I follwed your tutorial. Bought a pack of 5 plectrums off EBay for 99p to open the HOX like you did in the video.
Best 99p ever spent.
A lot better than sending phone away for 2 weeks only to hope it may be fixed.
Took 5 minutes, did it myself and don't lose all your data like you do sending it to HTC.
As I mentioned in another post, I had given up hope on my GPS, but didn't want to send off my One X due to root, custom ROM and stories of long waits without the phone actually being fixed.
This fix worked perfectly for me.
If you are having GPS problems and have the nerve, I suggest you try this.
Gabrielvl, thanks again.

Didn't really notice a difference for me (HTC One X Intl) and on top of that, i broke a wifi pin and damaged a network pin....
All seems to be working (GPS is still a bit weird), does anyone know if wifi will work properly on one pin and network on a slightly damaged pin?

You can try to soldering a wire from brocken pin to antena. If u can do that your problem will be fix. I know for sure becouse a friend happening the same like you and he fix with a wire
I dont have a soldering iron and i'm not gonna buy one just for a pin. I havent noticed any wifi problems, I still connect to 2.4GHz and 5Ghz and speed is still the same and with the network, its on 1 or 2 bars but i am inside and it usually is on that anyway and the GPS is not fixed, if anything, worse. But again, i am inside.

If it would work properly on one pin, thew would only have one pin to start with.

Soldering wires is not a good solution, they will act as antennae, which are a specific length tuned to the desired frequency.
Outside the gps was pretty good, the wifi is only one one pin and i notice no difference. GPS gets about 20 inside (used to be about 25-30) and outside i get about 35-40 (same).

OH GOD GUYS PLEASE STOP this is the same thing that I saw back in the Desire HD forums, and it ended poorly for pretty much everyone.
Do NOT try this unless you are out of warranty, the GPS antenna connectors are VERY thin and VERY weak, and it is VERY easy to SNAP them!

You are right..,is not a easy job to do. I manage to do that becouse i have some experience with hardware,and i know wend to STOP ,not pulling to much...

ONE MORE TIME TRY NOT TO BROKE ANYTHING

Hello,
i registered to this forum to thank you.
My GPS what not working at all from months. I did exactly what you descibe and it's now OK.
I must warn everibody because opening (and reclosing) a HTC One X is very touchy. So do it only with experience. At a moment i was thinking i would have to buy a new HTC but a manage to reclose it properly.
Bye !

Wich rom you use? Stock? Custom?
I bought a One X about a month ago. Brand new and unbranded. I started having issues with it. First was Audio Stutter, i contacted HTC support and they told me to clear cache through the recovery. This didn't work. The only way to fix this was to restart the phone with the headphones plugged in. Secondly the Vibrator started making a clicking noise every time i typed with the keyboard or used the capacitive keys. And now while charging my phone i started to notice yellow spots appear at the bottom of the screen (Which is a known issue with these devices) but disappeared after a while when i removed it from charging. This might be because the phone gets VERY HOT when its charging. I replaced the charger but i still had these issues. I contacted HTC and booked my phone in for repair. I'm just wondering whether they will give me a new phone or attempt to repair it.
Hi,
if it's within 30 days of purchase the seller should offer a replacement. If not they will more than likely say they'll repair it - like you said.
I've had no end of problems with mine recently, but HTC kept repairing it - which is fine by me. The one x I am using now is a replacement as the previous one kept breaking.
So I guess it comes down to HTC, it'll be there decision. But they'll normally try to repair it at least once before replacing.
Cheers

I have a feeling they might replace it. To fix the audio stutter they might have to replace the Main board and to fix the screen they will have to replace everything. Won't it not be cheaper and less time consuming to send me a new one instead. The thing i hate most is getting a phone back after it has been repaired and it does not feel the same anymore..doesn't feel new.

It just depends on HTC. I had mine repaired twice and now on my second replacement device (which is perfect - touch wood). I first suffered with Wifi - then it got repaired, but came back with a loose camera, yellow spots on the screen, broken vibration and overheating. So they offered to replace the device because it was brought back within 30days (more like they made the problems worse). So they gave me a new one - but that was faulty as it had a yellow tint to the screen, so they replaced it again because i brought it back within a week.
I know what you mean by it not feeling the same after it has been repaired - but to be honest i really couldn't tell a difference, normally i can.
They will more than likely offer to repair it, as its a lot cheaper than HTC giving you a brand new phone. At least you can get a repair and its not voided for a particular reason.
Cheers.
I just got off the phone to HTC regarding my Phones repair status and what they did to fix it. I initially sent my phone in for repair Because of Audio Crackling, Vibration motor fault when using softkeys or keyboard and Yellow spots on the screen when i charge the phone. NOW they are telling me they perfomed tests on the phone and found a WiFi problem(Which i never had a problem with) and they have fixed it and have shipped the phone to me. What Pisses me off is the fact that I'm getting my phone back with the exact same problems. I asked them why was the problem description not followed and they said they had a bug in their system so they did not know what the problem was when i clearly sent a copy of the paperwork that was emailed to me when i booked the phone for repair. It clearly states on the 'Problem Described:' section on the paperwork that i the above three problems. Has this ever happened to anyone?
I brought mine from Carphone Warehouse so my phones are always sent to there repair center. But I must say I've heard many complaints about HTCs repair service.

They might replace it.. my original (bought) handset had G-sensor issue, so I submitted it in HTC service center and also complained 3 more problems.. it took 40 days, but they have sent me back a brand new one X handset, here in India.

This is a couple of pic from my HOX that is faulty....i know theres afew people here that having the same screen problem as me and maybe not....the screen is glitching and sometimes blank but touchscreen still responsive....cause my warranty is void and i cant have a replacement, i want to make a repair at any phone shop that can repair it or if im brave enough, i do it myself...the cost in HTC center is expensive...what i want to know is, is the problem here is from the LCD display only and not on any other hardware...cause there is a LCD display with Digitizer that sell is cheaper than HTC center...and original..if i replace it, can the problem be solve...is it can be done...tq
At a guess I would say it's an issue with the memory holding the framebuffer, but it could be a problem with the bus connecting it to the screen.
Hard to say if a screen replacement would fix it.
If a stock ROM doesn't fix it, it's a hardware fault. That's usually covered under consumer protection laws. HTC are not obliged to uphold (or even provide) a warranty, but the retailer is obliged to honour your statutory rights.
Where did you purchase it?

Sounds serious....i have flash everything to stock using the right RUU and relocked the bootloader...when sending it to repair, they claim that i have rooted the device and warranty is void...when i said the cost of repair, they said its about RM500( around 150 USD )..and this is a lot...
I purchased my HOX in my country MALAYSIA, in 2nd hand market...the problem occur about a month of using....i received in perfect condition and LOCKED bootloader...
i hope this help, cause i really wanna get my HOX fix....
even i have the same problem.......it began shortly after the JB update...........i bought my phone from mobile store......but the warranty is given by HTC and i am afraid i also have voided my warranty by opening it and unlocking the bootloader...what to do ??
What i want to know is what causing this problem..if its like what BenPope said....is there a way to fix it....manually and cheaply.....
I have restored my stock backup and relocked the bootloader after that I did a hard reset.....after that no screen problem till now.....try it

I don't know what your hox problem but I know it is hardware faulty cuz I read a thread in XDA bout the same problem like yours but the solution is send to HTC and get replacement with new unit. So that won't help you I believe as you void your warranty.
You could try searching in lowyat forum and look for shop that provide repairs for HOX. If you live in KL, there is one shop around pandan indah that could replace your lcd+digitizer for below rm200 i think.

Same problem here..brief history of my One X
1. Phone is rooted, installed AOSP 4.2.2
2. I broke the screen last February and had it replaced (the center said its genuine HTC screen which they ordered from their contact from HTC, I've no way to check though but the quality is as good as the old one so no complaints there)
3. About a month ago, screen wont diplay when I unlock/wake..its just black but it can receive messages, play music etc..I can even answer calls (blind swipe of the screen to answer)
4. I gave up, and bought a new phone as I dont want to spend another S$200 bucks or so to repair it (initial screen replacement cost me S$240).But, out of curiosity, I booted it up last month (charged it to retrieve some pictures) and the display showed. The next morning, again it wont turn off.. As I have it encased in an otterbox commuter, I decided, WTH just do drop tests see if the otterbox was really able to protect.
After a few drops, I decided to wake the screen..And yes again it worked LOL
Now this on and off thing happens a lot..sometimes I'm able to wake it sometimes not (after a long period of the display being off)..
Just now, it wont turn on again, and again I dropped it face down (for the lulz) and the screen turned on again
here it is now, charging
One thing i noticed though, the screen would corrupt and lock up (sometimes) when I rotate screen to landscape
PS. damn this HTC One ultrapixel camera sucks
My friend accidentally dropped my phone...After that there was no network on my phone...Until I restarted it several times and tried to connect to a Wifi Spot..
After that the Preparing SimCard Toast appeared and only 2 Points is showing in the network which would work some times and some times when I try to make a call..it gets struck on the keypad layout saying com.phone.android has stopped responding
I have no warranty too!
I want to know if its a Hardware Problem or not?
And morover is there a solution for it? Has anyone faced it till now?
Any help would be greatful!
Thanks in Advance!

backup your data and try a factory reset, if again it don't work you may have hw issues :S
I think its hardware problem.. Just like the famous wifi antenna issue.
Your HOX's antenna pin must have bent down, and its not touching the case anymore. That's why you are having a poor signal reception..
Take apart your HOX and look for the bent pin. Refer this guide for more details:

It more than likely is, dropped my HOX on my front door step and had wifi issues. Repaired myself using wire and solder technique. Better than new!

I showed it to a service centre near by and he says this PROBLEM has no solution at all..
He says there's something wrong with the Amplifier Box on the mother board and it needs to be replaced to make network work and he says though after it is replaced it has only 50-50 chances of working or the motherboard getting doomed totally!
