Hello,
I have a huge problem with my HOX over 2 weeks now. I would like to notify that I'm working on ROM ARHD over the year (or was). When I unlock the phone (it doesn't matter if there is a password or not) instead of going to home screen I get stuck on HTC logo (the same when you power on HTC). Once I was waiting over an hour and still nothing happened - phone was "frozen".
I tried facotry reset - one day was ok and then on the other on the same problem (few times a day).
I've wiped everything, put ROM ARHD on sd, install it through the recovery + boot.img through the fastboot. Again the same problem - one day was ok and on the next day the same issue.
It's very frustating and I don't know what to do. Is it possible that somewhere got stuck water and that's because of that (even though I don't recall phone being with contact with water)? Or maybe it's pure system problem? Could you suggest to me any solution? Today/tomorrow I'll try once again flash ARHD, if that doesn't help, I'll try get another ROM working. Any ideas?
Hope to hear from you!
Patryk.
Anyone?
You have a one x AND a one M8 with the exact same problem ?

Ok i did searched a lot of sites before writing this, i just wanted to let you guys know the complete detail from where it started all the way down..
- I tried rooting the device through revoked, it failed and my phone got stuck at HTC logo.
- i install one of the ROM from shipped rom website and it start working again but had issue of random reboots.
- After few weeks my desire got heatup restarted and again stuck at HTC logo.
- This time i installed the official Gingerbread from HTC website, it works fine for few days but then again, when i used the phone for games or movies it get too hot and went reboot loop, unless i remove the battery and let it cool for few minutes.
- Last week i left for some work, got back home and my phone was on reboot loop for about an hour.
and this time reinstalling ROM doesn't solved the issue, any ROM which i install stuck on HTC screen and if i do install the Gingerbread it gets the reboot loop.
I gave up and try some local repair shop as i dont have any HTC center here in my country, the guy tried for 3 days now he said its Dead or bricked whatever you called it.
Everything is working fine from installing of ROM through either USB or SD Card, Fast boot is working good but its not booting at all, should i lose all hope for this phone and trashed it or there is still some hope?
Kindly Help

Did you ever obtain root? If not, I have found that Revolutionary has better luck on the Desire than Unrevoked.
Cool story bro. Can you please post technical details about your phone? Hboot version would be a good place to start.
When you allowed your local repairman to touch it, you more or less sealed its fate. Everything points to board issues.

bravo pvt1 SHIP S-OFF

Radio 5.17.05.23
just got it back for one day, before i give him back for mobo replaced..
Btw will try the gold card method..
Having an issue with my HOX today. It was in my pocket all day at work, pulled it out to make a phone call and afterwards when I went to hang up, the screen would not turn back on. It is still responsive to touch input and I can still unlock while the screen is black, but it still does not turn on. I can however hard restart it and the screen comes back on and I can still enter fastboot/recovery. But if I let the phone stand-by the issue repeats itself. I was on BinDroid v2 without any kernel when this happened, I got the phone into recovery and flashed both Energy and franco.Kernel and this issue is still happening. Is my best option to try and flash the original RUU and a stock rom?
I've had this issue since flashing the bricked kernel. I think the best option would be to go back to stock.

i have the same problem but in my case the phone is just suck at a black screen. am not able to do anything at all, am just sitting now waiting for my battery to die so that i may be able to reboot it. if you any suggestions to solve this, please do tell as i am in a dire situation.
Can't you restart the phone by holding the power button in?
If not then that's a strange one.

This is what I'm doing as well. I tried using a nandroid to go back to stock and that still doesn't work. It's almost impossible to get the phone into the bootloader but it's do able. One thing I'm noticing though, is that if the screen does manage to turn on when I boot it up, it wants to send an error report to HTC about it. Also, once the screen goes off and won't come back on, it's very laggy to other inputs. Example, pressing the power like you want to wake it and then pressing to volume keys has a very noticeable delay.
Thankfully, HTC is already doing a warranty call on it for the yellow spots on my screen (now like dark orange spots now)
Update: HTC said that the screen issue I'm having is unlikely able to be fixed by a software repair and that I have to send it in for a repair. 7-10 business days.... great.
Also with an untouched phone
Guys, I am afraid this is a hardware problem. My phone is UNROOTED with the last upgrade and I am having the same issue.
Take it back to the assistance. OOPS, you rooted it ;-)

Hi.. I'm also facing the same issue ... however this didn't start till few days ago. I have had this phone for six months now and was on stock most of the times.
But since this week , I started getting issues where once the screen goes black , it doesn't come back on. Although , I can reboot the phone with long press power button and also go back to bootloader/recovery without any issues.
Can u confirm its the hardware issue ? If yes, did the techinicians told you anything about what is causing this and it can be corrected easily ? I want to try my hands on it before going to customer care as I have void my warranty and will have to pay for repairs.
Cheers !
its kernels issue.
you should flash orginal kernel or flash a rom with irginal kernel to fix this issue.

First time I started facing the issue, I was on stock 4.0.4 rom with stock kernels unrooted and locked bootloader.
So not sure if the issue was related to kernel. Anyways I'l try to get stock kernel and use it.
Cheers
OK.. so I did tried to get the stock 4.0.4 rom with stock kerne but same issue.
Also in the meanwhile I tried all other prominent HOX roms , bot AOSP and sense.
I have found that the issue is more severe and frequent on Sense roms (confirmed on all JB roms Ondroid, Maximus and ADHD as well as VenomX) but its very much stable on AOKP ICJ and CM10 roms. However still sometimes screen doesn't come on in ICJ too.
Now I'm starting to think there might be some issue with HBoot 1.28. My CID is 001 so there shouldn't be any issue, but if I remember correctly when I installed the Hboot, there was a 'Failed' message , but the process did completed.
Should I try to again flash Hboot 1.28 as I can't apparantely go back to older ones ? anything else I should try.
I'd really like to hear from some ppl who have faced this issue and mentioned in posts above on how they managed to solve it.
Cheerio

have you solve this issue?
Hello, i'm sorry that my first post on this forum is an question about my no longer working htc one x. I have been gathering information of this forum for a long time, and allways helped me, but this time i am really stuck. So in advance i thank you for all the help you already have given me
This is what happened
my first HOX had a defect sim reader, was declared DOA so i got a new one, so far so good
but after using the phone for about 2 weeks,
all apps started closing one at a time, untill the phone went black (it was still on, but nothing was working)
at first i tought i installed a bad app, so reset the phone to factory settings.
after i did that it worked for a few days untill the same phenomenon happened again.
this time i reset the settings via the power+volume button boot menu, and in android wiped the SD card.
again it worked for a few days,
untill it all started going haywire.
all the apps i installed the last time where whatssap and dropbox (no games and such)
now i rarely can get my phone to boot, or go into recovery.
when i connect it to my charger it has no red light.
if i get it to boot, i usually cant get past the sim unlock screen.
i have been thinking about returning it, or installing another rom (wich i have done before on my htc desire wich worked great)
problem is, i cant go into android to tick on the usb debug.
sorry for the long post, i'd be really happy if you could help me out in this one.
my htc is from the dutch vodafone provider.
cheers,
Schella

mmh i read about same problem with someone, here on xda, are your bootloader unlocked?
it seems to be a firmware problem, so you can try to install a ruu if it's available, and if it's not, you can try to ask for htc or vodafone to change it with another hox, or you can unlock bootloader and install a custom firmware, hoping that it will not give you the same problem! (unlocking bootloader MAY void all or part of your warranty)>>it depends only from htc... in some country they don't care, in some other, they will not repair it.
aha

i believe it is alowed here, but this was exactly my dilemma.. i think i'm going to return it for it is the safest option i guess. Maybe it is an hardware failure. thanks for the reply! my bootloader is locked btw
I have a One X S720e, CID_J15
I recently upgraded the hboot to 1.39, and since the update the phone has been going crazy. First installed a IceColdJelly 2.5.1 ROM. And after installing Gapps everything was okay at first but 5min into usage everything started FCing. starting from com.google.process to the launcher to every single application. And this just keeps happening. I ran a super wipe script installed other ROMS including the CM 10.1 and same issue kept happening.
After a day of this, the phone randomly started turning off and got stuck in APX mode. I managed to get out by holding power button and vol up + vol down for 40+ sec. The phone runs for a bit, boots into ROM, works for some time as long as no app is run. If i open ANY app at all, again the FC starts and eventually the phone reboots into the APX mode again.
Frustrated, i ran another Super Wipe Script, again tried to install the HBOOT 1.39 update, and then installed the STOCK ROM for a nandroid backup i had. But the same thing keeps happening. All apps force closing. So basically i cant use the phone.
PLEASE HELP ME. Anyone have any ideas whats wrong ? or could it be a hardware issue ? should i relock the bootloader and send it to a HTC service center ??
You did flash the boot.img for every specific ROM right?
I think if you send it to HTC they will charge you for the full repair service, which WILL cost you a lot of money.
Got no further solution for you buddy, good luck. Hope you can fix it before sending it to HTC
yup. Done evreything by the book. flashed all the boot.img files. The ROMs boot perfectly, just that after a while while im installing apps and or doing ANYTHING everything starts crashing.
My phone is still in warranty though. I read that if the phone goes into APX mode its usually a hardware problem. My question is why did the problem arise only after i updated the HBOOT. everything was just fine till then. I hope this issue is covered in warranty :'(
i have exactly the same problem!!
What you say, sometimes it will work for 5 minutes. But when you open an application it will force close and all the applications will start FCing.
Did you already solve the problem?
APX is a hardware defect ..... not much to do about that.
I have exactly the same problem! It all started with ICJ: gapps and almost all other apps started FCing after some time. After dozens of hard reboots I got stuck in APX mode. At least that's what I think. My PC recognized the device as "unknown devices", the screen was black, adb and fastboot didn't work. I managed to get out by pressing the power button + volume up/down for many seconds... I flashed numerous Roms in the past days and I always get the same FCs (especcially Gapps) - doesn't matter if it is a sense or an AOSP based ROM. So is this a hardware probelm? Is there any way I can solve it? If I send my HOX to HTC I'll most probably need to pay right?

Hey guys,
Hope that someone can help me.
I managed to get my hands on another DHD in amazing condition, looks new, so that I could sell my original handset.
So I did the same as before unlocked the phone by HTC Dev, installed TWRP and then Cm11, fastboot flashed the boot.img file and it was alive.
After running through the set up, the phone the rebooted by itself (Weird I thought), then after about 10 mins it rebooted again and the phone reboots itself all the time.
There is no pattern that I have found, no set time limit to the reboots or particular apps that cause it to reboot??
I have also tried different Rom's and it still has the same issue.
Anyone got any ideas?

Have you tried changing the battery?
Hi Mickey,
Think I have found the problem, the phone has been sim unlocked, but for some reason does not like the one I have put in.
I will try some other sim cards and see if it is all networks this happens with.
