(Fix) dead HTC one x

I don't know if this was posted but I couldn't find it so...
My friends gave me his one x to fix it because he was playing gang star Rio and suddenly the device was off because of low battery and when he charged the phone couldn't charge only sometimes it blinks red
And the device can't turn on by any button mix ..
So I fixed it by holding the power button and connecting the charger while holding and that's it ...
I don't know if it will work for u I just thought I would share this

What you did was a battery reset, if I'm not mistaken. I had to do the same once when my phone refused to turn on, despite charging it.

Reboot: press the power button (10sec)until the bottom buttons start to flash (4times)
recovery: press power + vol down

:silly: recovery = power + vol down ... wait,1 time vol down, press power

I was also handed over a friend's HOX, which suddenly couldn't turn on. I've tried to charge it overnight, and I've tried turning it on with the vol down, holding it down for 10 sec. Nothing works and buttons doesn't flash?
Any suggestions?

EDIT : press it for a few seconds

Didn't work I think the only solution is to send it to HTC repair. Anyone know if they can fix it, if the warranty has run out?

for me, warranty still remain and free :good::good:

Actually, this happens to my phone periodically. Sometimes it lasts minutes and sometimes hours. Just keep it plugged in until the light stays solid. Your device should turn back on.

Good question, the computer was muted But it shows up in device manager as unknown device, and when holding power button for ~10 sec, it changes to apx device. And I can't update the driver.
Any idea of how much they charge. Screen is cracked also, so maybe it's cheaper to buy a new!?

No, led never lights up. Hmm.. read a bit about the j-tag, and seems like there's nowhere to get it done here in Denmark. And international charging is pricy.
Dead end everywhere
Any chance of changing the broken screen, could make the device boot?

nope there is no connection between the screen and the board which might help in booting up the phone..but can i ask you how it broke up ? maybe that might be a reason that made the phone not work again.....i wish i was in Denmark i would have checked your phone with patience or send me ur phone to ksa lol ... well as your phone atleast shows a sign as it is connected to a computer...there might be a chance of reviving it

Well, it is a friend's phone I got, to play around with. So I don't know exactly how the screen broke, but it happened some time before, this other problem. So it worked fine for some time, and then suddenly `blacked out`.
Yea, when the computer recognizes the phone, there's a chance If you have some ideas, I can try them out. Otherwise I'll have to send it to ksa

Jumping in this discussions since i have the same problem..... HTC one X not powering on, no sings of charging, and the PC will detect only as something being pluged but you can not do anything as it shows Device Unknown.... "failed to install driver"
Is this a software issue ?? - bootloader or something like that or
hardware issue - something has to be replaced ??
P.S. holding down power + volume down for many seconds will not react, or leave it on the wall charger for more than 5 hours will not change anything..
any ideas.... ( mine broke while i did factory reset, ---- )

[Q] ZL wont boot without power source

So my ZL won't power up past the boot animation without an external power source.
When I do boot it up and unplug the USB cable, it works for about 30 seconds then it shuts down.
The phone seems to charge fine.
I've already wiped the phone and flashed stock ftf files but the problem persists.
I don't know what else to try, any suggestions?

Did u contact Sony? They can fix or replace your phone under warranty
Sent from my C6506 using xda app-developers app

That's kinda like last resort.
My bootloader is also unlocked so i would actually rather buy another phone than shell out a few hundred to fix it.
Recovery, fastboot, and flash mode work normally. Its just booting into the system.

I dont think Sony will take it under warranty because unlocking the Bootloader voids warranty...

Funny, mine is doing the EXACT same thing. I think mine overheated once this week, and now I can't boot without plugging it in, and if it doesn't stay plugged in, it will rebook when I launch an app.

Of course I have! lol, this isn't a ROM issue, it's a hardware issue. I have a locked bootloader, no custom kernel, which means no damage from ROMs.

That means you can use Sony Companion software and install the stock firmware from Sony and send it to Sony for repair or replacement.

I was commenting because it's likely we have the same problem, and since I've never heard of this particular problem in ANY OTHER android, it makes it a ZL problem. I was simply letting the OP know he's not alone, obviously we're both going to send them to Sony for replacement.

My ZL developed this issue today. the key difference is that I need it plugged into the charger to boot since it will not boot when it is plugged into my pc.
c6506, rooted once, locked bootloader, no custom roms installed.

Wow..I'm glad I'm not the only one - getting like no responses from my post from a couple of weeks ago was really disenheartening. did Sony send you shipping instructions? did they offer to accept it right away, no questions asked, or did they grill you about your phone? just want to know what to expect

Its actually quite painless.
I called and told them the problem, assured I tried restoring the phone, then they gave me an RMA number and details where to mail it to.

I don't own a ZL, but i'm planning on buying one later this year(I hope!). Since there are several cases of this issue it would be a good idea if everyone who has it gives a bit of detail on phone usage, how long they've owned the phone, charging habits, etc.

I consider myself a very "light" user as I use the phone to check emails/send texts, and look up the odd thing that's blocked at work. While on the subway, I'll listen to music or watch the odd video that I've DL'd...very minimal gaming, though the last two games I DL'd were a couple of Mobage games - Transformers Legends and Monster Match which I would play pretty much all day when work is slow.
Nothing out of the ordinary with charging..phone gets to ~10%, I'll charge. There was the odd times I would charge the phone while playing those games, but again, nothing out of the ordinary

Just became another Victim of this issue two days ago.
were this all happened on 4.2.2 - 10.3.1.A.2.67?
I updated to 4.2.2 - 10.3.1.A.2.67 few days ago and then this happened.
anyone got his/her fixed already?

SOLVED: HELP NEEDED!!! Note 2 wont turn on. BadgeProvider and Samsung has stopped!!!!

As the title reads my Note 2 will not turn on. It will not go into recovery mode. I have 5 batteries and none of them are working. Yesterday I got 2 weird messages that "BadgeProvider" and "Samsung" has stopped. The phone started acting weird by not letting me use anything but the notification bar. I couldn't even turn it off using the power button. I removed the battery and reinserted the battery a couple of times and still it didn't work only letting me use the notification bar. Finally it started working for some random reason and I restarted the phone and all was well.
I'm so use to having 5 batteries that I did not have the phone on the charger last night and it died. Now the phone will not turn on at all. Not into recovery mode. Not normal mode. It is totally unresponsive. Tried rapidly touching the contacts with the battery contact and nothing. What can I do to get my phone working????????????

Also to add to this, yesterday when I was taking the phone's battery out and in the phone would start booting by itself. Could this be a power button issue? I've only had the phone for about 10 months and never dropped it without the otterbox defender series on it.

From that statement above, having the otter box doesn't mean you'll be protected against drops. Yes it'll protect the phone but still suffered inside the device! I had a friend crack his screen on the corner, with an otter box on with one drop!
Now back to the phone:
Since you can get into recovery have you tried a factory data reset to see if that fixes your problem..

I plan to read all responses as soon as I can because I'm in dire need of help. The phone WILL NOT turn back on. The first day I had the problem it gave me the "BadgeProvider" has stopped working and also the "Samsung" has stopped working error messages. The only thing that was responsive was responsive was my notification bar. I could slide it down turn wifi on and off etc from there but when I hit the setting button on the notification bar it would not open up the settings immediately and there was maybe a 2 minute delay (I walked away from the phone and came back to it) and it would finally open it up but giving me the 2 error messages "BadgeProvider" and "Samsung" has stopped working. Read online that clearing the BadgeProvider data under "Application Manager->All->BadgeProvider" would fix this issue so thats what I did. Wallah it worked fine.....fell asleep without my phone on the charger and it died but I have 5 batteries so who cares. Woke up noticed the phone was dead then I swapped batteries (OEM Samsung battery). Tried to turn it on and it will not turn on. Tried putting it on the charger (even though it should be a freshly charged battery) and the red charging light will not even come on. Tried to boot into recovery mode and still unresponsive.
As of now I CANNOT boot into revovery mode, turn on the phone in any way, get the charging light to come on when plugged in (I have 5 other batteries plus an external battery charger so its definitely not truely dead battery wise), I cannot get the phone to do anything what so ever. Tried removing external storage from it, tried removing sim, tried 5 different fully charged batteries and nothing.
Anyone that can give me some insight on what the problem may be and a possible solution I would greatly appreciate it.

True, true.....Or, they post the same question in five forums....lol.
What do you guys think about using Odin? Can he get into the phone if it won't go to recovery? Can you install TWRP or CWM, they may automatically set the phone to restart in recovery mode? Just some thoughts....I am not a dev., just an avid user.
Something here might help as well. :

Keep us posted on what you try, and your status. Good luck.

Also if it helps any, I have had my phone restart by itself randomly way before rooting it. After rooting I still had the restarts just as I have always had (maybe once every 3 weeks). Rooting it gave me no errors at all and it has been working fine for months being rooted. Not sure if letting you guys know of the restarting issue is going to help anything but I'm telling you all I know to try to debug this issue.

So there is no power at all, not even a loop. I had a similar problem with a LePan tab, but when I plugged it into my laptop via USB, it would start.....Sorry. Sounds hardware....

Thanks man. I'm thinking it's hardware too. Herd of motherboard problems early on with this phone that would cause it to randomly shut off and not come back on.
Has ANYONE had any experience with samsung repair centers???? Do they care if the device is rooted even if its a known hardware issue?
Thanks for any help

I've read a few people having that problem with the phone randomly turning off.
[Q] did you get the phone New or used? If its used you have a lot of people out there selling devices with problems that they couldn't fix! FYI
#2
Does it get recognized by the PC?
When you plug it in? If so then you should be able to try the Kies recovery!
If not then kies won't help..

I brought it directly from AT&T new. And nope. Tried pluggin it into the PC and not recognized. Tried Kies and Odin and neither had any affect. The phone is just completely unresponsive now.
Thinking about trying to take it to Samsung before AT&T so I can try to miss the deductible.

Remove the battery ...then plug the device in to USB connection with your PC...
Then attempt to boot the phone into download mode..
If successful ....then immediately push the rooted stock rom from Mr. Robinsons thread in the development section...
If no download mode exists while attempting boot with the battery removed ...then the likelihood of device damage is high...
This of course does not rule out the possibility of a stuck power button ...but that hardware failure generally presents a repeated and uncontrolled loop which in this case we are not seeing...
Odin mode failure generally means a defective or damaged Chipset...g

Ok since you want to take it in to Sammy. And you did state you got it New from the AT&T store. Then you can take it into one of the DSC. (Device support center)
Check HERE:
http://www.att.com/esupport/article.jsp?sid=KB91429&cv=820#fbid=CS_QLPeF54-
Hopefully there's one in your area. I have one like 10 mins away from me
Hopefully they can help you get back up and running. No charge either. It's a warranty center. Member no Rom talk in there.. LOL:sly:
But if they can't get it to turn on you'll be getting another the same day. Takes about a total of 15 minutes and you'll be on your way with your new toy!! Yay and good luck to you. Lety us know what you're outcome is!

Hopefully there's one in your area. I have one like 10 mins away from me
Hopefully they can help you get back up and running. No charge either. It's a warranty center. Member no Rom talk in there.. LOL:sly:
But if they can't get it to turn on you'll be getting another the same day. Takes about a total of 15 minutes and you'll be on your way with your new toy!! Yay and good luck to you. Lety us know what you're outcome is!
Just my 3¢® <_>

Got a new phone. It was a painless process. Just walk in play dumb and talk as least as possible. They never asked a question about rooting. I'm guessing because I seemed like an idiot . Going to let it do all the updates it can then going to root it tomorrow using CFroot.
Thanks all for the info.
Anyone reading this in the future let me know if I can help in anyway.

Glad you got a new device ..and for the record ...I personally believe you had a bad device from day 1...
Normally I would frown on anyone taking back a device that has been modded ...but I can see no evidence in your case that indicates your doing anything that would break your chipset ...
And I know that others feel the same way ...
You tried your guts out ...and the device just didn't act properly from day 1...
Please place a "Solved" in the thread title if you don't mind ...
That way ...everyone knows the issue has been corrected ..
Many thanks ...and....
Happy flashing ....g

If your phone isn't even going into flash mode than better try pulling out and reinserting the battery or try another one, and if that not works than take it to service center, no matter if you have rooted it they won't notice unless you have unlocked bootloader.
But mostly I think it's a battery problem so try another one from your friends or anyone. Good luck.
Hit thanks if I helped

Wow, this is strange. As the comment above mine said, i also think it is a battery problem

i've tried to pull-insert battery, but nothing happen
then i tested battery with a led, and it's lighting
so i think it's not battery problem
do you think it's hardware problem guys?
thanks for your replies

I've seen this problem before with a work colleague, he got a c1905 for his daughter and within 2 weeks it did the same just turned off and wouldn't turn back on or do anything so he got a new one thru warranty pretty sure its a hardware problem on the board

Xperia z5 premium won't start; won't charge, lights up and shows logo then dies

Hi guys, i just got my xperia z5 premium dual e6885 back from a friend, said it was still working, but after giving it back to me, it was dead, it won't start, and when I try to charge it, it'll just light up and show the sony logo, while blinking red light once, then dies, and then after exactly 8 seconds, it will repeat, tried using flashtool, fastboot won't work, flashmode too, my pc doesn't detect the phone. Any ways to get this phone repaired? Any help would be much appreciated.

Uhh yeah, well, it's my first time to see this kind of uhh "defect?" On a phone, I thought it was just a normal bootloop, and is easy to fix, but turns out it's not, that's why i'm seeking help here.

No it's not rooted, can't have it to boot to recovery since it won't turn on, well, some miracle happened and for some reason, after i took it apart and assemble it again, it worked, like normal, i don't how what happened, but it's just that, anyways, thanks!
