so , i was trying to root my device
when i was in twrp ( last version ) , trying to install supersu . and the "Swipe to unlock" message appear
but i can't swipe
tried to turn off the device , but it won't turned off
after a minutes , the screen turned off
so i tried to press the power again , still in that screen and message and i can't swipe
if i plug it PC , it recharge
i heard if i press and hold the power button under strong light it will recognize or something , not sure if that a joke
its seems the screen not responding
ok .. problem solved
i pressed UP + Power button for 30 seconds
very strange ..i thought it down and power button
You have to swipe across to extreme right for it to unlock twrp.
The advice regarding holding under bright light while power down when in lock up situation was correct on M7 don't know about M8 or M9

Do you have a dot view case by any chance, its been mentioned that the case closing causes issues with the screen not responding to touches.

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.
Hi there
I updated my phone to jellybean yesterday i am with tmobile uk , the phone worked fine after this everything seemed to install ok.
until a hour ago, i got a phone call answered it, then hung up, i put my phone in my pocket, next time i took it out the phone was locked on the boot page the white screen with htc logo on, i tried to power it off and the the 3 buttons on the bottom of phone started to flash white for 10 seconds then phone swithed off. the phone wont turn back on, it wont charge, tried usb to computer no lights nothing. the phone was fully charged when it switched off. my phones a standard one never touched bootloader etc
i spoke to htc they think its software problem, they say when i downloaded jellybean i used 3g not wifi (my fault) this could have caused the problem as there could of been a drop in signal they tell me.
the problem i have they want 210 pound to fix and they say its not under warranty as i have had the screen replaced, but not by htc voiding the warranty.
Can anyone here give me some advice or help to fix my phone please.
thanks

Can you enter the bootloader by holding the power button and the volume - button together, keep them pressed until it enters the bootloader.

Hi. I have a HTC One X and while I was at work last week my phone was working fine. when i had a break I went to check my phone and it would not turn on. Everytime I press the power button the camera flashes. Iv tried charging it and plugging it into my pc. the charging light doesn't show up and it doesn't connect to pc either as if i never plugged it in. Try to flash it but bootloader wont appear on the screen. Please help.
Does it power off if you hold the power button for 10 seconds?
Sent from my HTC One X using xda premium
No it doesn't do anything. The screen is black and the only thing it does is when i press on button the camera flashes.

I had a similar problem a few weeks ago, although mine wasn't the camera flashing, it was the torch. I solved the problem by powering off and installing another rom. If the phone is powered on, hold the power button down until the hardware keys at the bottom start flashing and continue to hold until the flashing stops. Mine took about 30 seconds until the capacitive buttons started flashing then about another 4 or 5 seconds to stop flashing and power off. You should then be able to get into the bootloader

For me it was software, I had inadvertently set the torch to flash on pressing the power button, it worked fine with the screen on but once the screen went off it wouldn't come back on so I had to follow the steps above

Hey ,i have the same problem as well. I thought i was the only one. i am thinking about taking it to the shop to see if they could fix it. I keep pressing the power button and eventually it would turn back on and work fine again. I've tried installing different Roms and even installed the stock rom but still the same problem. I would use it for a couple of days then randomly it would just go black and just camera flash every time i press the power button. Guessing its a hardware problem since i've tried different roms?

Battery pull/power off fully and remove any sdcard if you have one in, then hold volume down and power to boot into hboot. Connect to the pc via USB cable and then issue the fastboot command
Fastboot devices
If it gives you a device listed then its probably the LCD pal.

Hey guys,
When I woke up today my phone had some serious issue.
I can turn the phone on and off with the power button, but when the phone is lit and I want to
lock the screen, the button does not work. I can hold it in and get to the power meny, but when
i just tap it, nothing happens...
Do any of you know why it occour? Havent done anything unusual...
Clearly the button works, because I can enter the Power meny...
/Thanks

are you trying to turn the screen off on lock screen? if so just double tap the screen
Is the phone stock or modded (rooted, custom ROM, etc.)?
Did you try to reboot device already?

Yes, the first thing I tried.
I'm not completely clear on the issue. If you just tap the power button while the screen is on, it should turn off the screen (which in turn also locks it). If holding the power button until you get the power menu, the choices should just be Power Off, Restart, and Airplane Mode. I don't think there is an option to lock screen on that menu on a stock ROM (and actually no custom ROMs that I know of).
Sorry for the delay on the answers.
It's not that i can't access the power menu, that works fine.
But if you want to lock your screen, you just tap the power buttom and that dosent work.
And I just found out that the screen NEVER shouts down!? It's always on.
When I reeboot the phone, the screen darkens, but all the icons on the desktop is visible and when i try
to tap the screen it acts like its off!?
Can't even think of whats wrong with this now.
The power buttom clearly works, but i can't lock or shout down the screen.
It's like its always on!?
I'm having this exact same issue.
My solution
Obviously this is much too late for the OP, but for anyone who might still stumble on this thread (it is still one of the top hits on Google for this issue), I got mine working again by rebooting the phone, after first disabling fast boot in the settings. (Settings > Power > Fast boot - I should note my phone is the HTC One Mini 2, but I assume the M8 isn't too different in this regard).
I had previously attempted rebooting from the power options (both restart and power off), but this hadn't fixed the problem.

The Fast boot option in Settings was removed from the M8 as of Lollipop.
Even when the M8 had this option, it did not effect "Restart" in power options. At least on the M8, restart is always a try restart; and Fast boot only affected the "power off" condition.
