[Q] Please Help: HTC One X Buggered :(

Hi All,
Please help me if you can with the problem I am now experiencing
HTC One X is my first android phone, i have had it for about 3 months. It has been brilliant ever since i had it
However last night I installed the Amazon APP Store as its now available in the UK. Ever Since my phone has gone absolutely haywire
Its a real stuggle to get it on, if you hold down Power it vibrates and the 3 lights flash a few times, then nothing. Sometimes it comes on! Then when its on its DEAD slow, like really really slow, also after a minute or so the resolution changes and things are all in the wrong place; then the touchscreen doesnt respond, so i turn it off and the cycle continues
I have managed to get back on it, and to get rid of the Amazon App store but I am still facing the same difficulities.
My HTC One X is UK version and is on stock ICM.
Do you have any ideas how I can return it to working order?
Also: DAMN YOU AMAZON
EDIT: BTW, when i press power, the lights at the bottom are on, and i can hear the volume sound change, but no screen. I am trying to factory reset but cant get the phone working long enough to find it

If you press and hold power button + volume down at the same time the phone will boot into Bootloader. From there you can do a factory reset. Navigate with volume keys to Hboot and use power button as confirm. There should be an option there for factory reset..

Unfortunately i cannot get the PC to look for it, and i cant get into the thing where you hold down power and down arrow
I think the screen has totally given up, which i dont understand; this was always a software issue

Install a RUU matching your device and then see what happens. If that doesn't solve it, then MAYBE hardware issue.

Galaxy S II SGH-T989D Soft bricked

Hey guys.
So I got this Galaxy S II SGH-T989D from my friend, he just gave it to me.
Anyways, I think it is soft bricked. When I stick the battery in, it turns on, displays the samsung logo, then says Koodo with a loading bar underneath. Once the loading bar is complete the screen just goes black, and the device will vibrate every 2 seconds.
Don't really know how to reset this.
Any help is appreciated
Thanks!

if you can go download mode please flash a stock firmware for t989d and flash it using odin.. get the stock firmware from samfirmware.com if u wish.. goodluck

Thanks Ill try!

Okay when I try it put it in download mode, it displays the warning screen about installing a new firmware blah blah, and then before I can do anything the screen flashes, I see blue and then it just goes back to a black screen and vibrating.

When all else fails I suggest opening Kies on your computer and selecting "emergency firmware recovery"

Sounds to me like a power button problem, not a firmware problem. Could be wrong, but the black screen and vibrating sound like the tell-tale symptoms. Check this thread out: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1931310&highlight=power+button
There are many, many threads about this.

Okay so I took the entire phone apart and removed the power button. I tried booting then, and it still does it.
So it is definitely not a button sticking issue

Same issue
I'm having the exact same issue. I've also disassembled my phone and have ruled out the button issue. All fix guides I've encountered thus far require the "volume up + volume down + power button" boot method which is non-responsive on my phone. It continues to vibrate every two seconds. The furthest I get is have halfway through the Samsung load screen before the screen goes black.

it sounds like it might be a bootloader problem, I can't seem to find the thread right now but I know i just saw it on here that a guy in oregon will reset you bootloaders for $25(you pay for shipping), but there was a few people on there also saying that he had done a great job fixing theres. he works for a shop that repairs mobile devices, you should look through the general and q&a for bootloader issue threads i know its in there somewhere.

[Q] Phone won't turn off!

try this.
to get into download mode,
leave your phone on and connect to pc
press and hold both volume buttons
press and hold power button till OG's screen goes black black (don't let go volume buttons yet)
release power button (still hold volume buttons)
your OG should turn back on by itself in my experience.
and see if you can get into download mode.
This method took me to download mode when I soft bricked my OG.
Good luck!
P.s. same way for fast boot except it uses only volume down button.

You listen,
YOU rooted your phone, NOT me, NOT anyone else.
This 100% your fault and
I just told you what to do.
turn phone on, where it gets to the HTC green logo,
hold power and volume down until it gets to fastboot. the screen that is white, DO NOT let go of power or volume until this happens.
If this doesn't work you are either not following my directions, or there is something wrong with your phone.

the language barrier here isn't going to work..
this phone doesn't even have a menu button so how could you have help it for 7 seconds??
IT is KNOWN that to hold the power + volume to get to fastboot..
As I said, you hold power + volume down for a LONG time don't let go until in fastboot... could take up to 20 seconds..
then you get to recovery and flash your ROM, or backup..
nothing new was discovered here.
we just fixed your user error.

Personally if you can get into recovery (team win recovery project) or stock - try just doing a factory reset (wipe data and cache).
Also- you are in the wrong forum. This is the USA Verizon wireless HTC One forum. You should be in the international One forum.
Thirdly - it sounds like you really don't understand any of this so you need to do some reading on how the entire process works because if you end up having to wipe your system its going to get complicated

Like he said, if the phone is off, hold the volume button down and press the power button down and hold them down until you enter that white screen you took a picture of.
Is that still working for you?

Help is understand other problem not worse my situation and repeat 10 time the same things! Sorry.. try to understand..

If you plug the phone into the wall do you get a charging light? Or are you trying to do this while the phone is plugged in to a power source? Maybe you have killed your battery trying to fix it?

Vibrates every second, no download no recovery, changed power button

Hello guys, i'm trying to repair my girlfriends t989, you know all girls are destroying phones. so the problem is, that you put in the battery, phone 1st time boots and after 5 secs, just black screen and vibrates. i've searched for this problem, and it says that is the power button, yesterday i changed it, so i thing its something with software, any help guys?
UPDATE: i can go in download mode, but only for a few secs, then slighly blue screen flashes and again vibrating
Is there any way to flash software not through download mode and recovery?

This is the power button for sure.
I had the same problem, and all I did was to open the screws and clean the contacts with alcohol and clean up the edges with tooth pick and put everything back again. Tried couple of times and that fixed my issue.
Hope that helps. .
