HTC One X G-sensors not working all of a sudden!

Hey guys... My friend bought an HTC One X second hand. It is rooted with what seems to be stock 4.0.3 Sense 4.0. The phone is also S-OFF and everything.. I will post pictures of it.
So here's the deal:
My friend was watching a movie but suddenly he felt as if the screen wasn't rotating... Now (According to AndroSensor App) the magnetic field, orientation, gyroscope, accelerometer etc... In short.. All of the GRAVITY SENSORS and the orientation sensors aren't working.. They are DETECTED by the app but say "Waiting for event"
tried hard resetting and everything. I have put many Custom ROMs in phones before. So i can flash ROMs etc if i have to
I have attached the pictures about everything and need help.. Alot appreciated thanks.

Since i bought it second hand he told me "i gave you the phone when it was working. Even you checked it here in the shop. Not my fault.".... Thats the last time i ever buy a 2nd hand phone -.-
And he ain't wrong himself either... Anyways a helpful suggestion will be alot appreciated...
My question is that "CAN I FLASH A SENSE 5 (4.2.2) ROM ON THIS BAD BOY BY JUST FLASHING VIA RECOVERY?"
I'll then check the other powering off and stuff i read till i get my hands on my frnd's HOX. Cuz im a bit busy waiting for the Nexus 5 launch o.o

you should update it first, that is a very old version, you should have updates available. as it is s-off you can flash anything you want but I think you will need to update the hboot first, once that is done you have a lot of options available to you

Yeah you might be right... So what you are suggesting is I do a ROM flashing? Seeing the phone is already s-offed and everything
Anyways can you please list me a step by step procedure? Seeing this is my friend's phone so not doing this on my own :x

Bump?

Go to settings and check for an update. What we all recommend is that you send it to HTC, all untampered One Xs should still be in warranty, so send it to them, if it can't be fixed they'll send you a One X or a One X+, or sometimes they could send a HTC One if you're lucky :/

Nay i live in Pakistan :/ if this was in warranty even they wouldn't have accepted it :/ or requested a cost for it... Either way thanks for your reply... So doing an OTA update won't create problems on an S-OFFed device right?

OTA need relocked or locked device , stock recovery and stock ROM
and if you still have a problem with your g-sensor , check my signature , there is an alternative way to fix it

Oh alright! Btw if i flash a recovery via fastboot, then i am able to flash (say) a custom ROM Sense 5, 4.2.2 right? Just asking for it i will update it by OTA (provided there isnt a custom recovery... Since i didnt check that) :/

Oh i'll get right on it when i get my hands on the device can i request you to stay put to this thread? Cuz i will report back here

if you flash a custom recovery you can do anything you want, ie flash a rom, sense or no sense, or flash back to stock and because you are s-off you can even change your cid to install an update from a different region.
this can go on and on and people are starting to repeat themselves and you have had all the information you need to move forward. so what you need to do, as you say you cannot fix under warranty, is :- let the phone update via ota, this will update everything including the rom, the version of sense and the hboot. then once it is finished with all ota's available you can install a custom recovery( I recommend philz touch recovery or the latest twrp) and then you can flash all the rom's or mods you like.
and if you find you still have a problem with sensors check @HTC Venom signature for a possible solution

Try to do the hard reset after couple of days. Once you feel your device is warm enough. Chances to get them back gets better with time

i got them back except for temperature sensor....althought i did this thing several times, but once it worked out...i restarted the phone by long pressing the power button, even after the TURN OFF menu appears...on the start screen pressed volume down button to go in safe mode, all sensors started working, then i restarted mobile to come in normal mode.
working fine uptil now, i dont have restarted or powered off after that. so dont know if they will keep working after restart or again same problem will occur
all the people having same problem, just keep on trying restarts, safe mode, factory reset etc etc most probably they will start working. its just hit and trial

If you flashed wrong custom ROM via recovery won't be a problem, just reflash any other compatible stock ROM then your problem will be fixed. BUT if you flashed wrong stock ROM via ODIN and you will end up brick. You need a JTAG to revive your phone.

Its pretty hard to destroy your phone completely just by flashing another rom.

Flashing bootloader through recovery is a bad idea.
Repartitioning your device in odin, with files not specific to your device, is a bad idea
Dramatic over-clocking with increased voltages, can be a bad idea
Dropping your device is a bad idea.
Bumping a thread without waiting more than 24 hours, is a bad idea

Recover on from bootloop on H815 EU

Hi guys,
Yesterday I got sweaty hand palms.
My EU 815 G4 is unlocked, the official way, and I had rooted it.
Then I tried to install xposed from twrp and I did something wrong, and ended up in bootloop...
I have just updated to v20b before, and forgot to connect the phone to the PC, and allow the PC debug access before installing xposed, so i could see the phone in ADB mode, but couldn't access it.
Of course I hadn't made a backup before this - I like to cry
Just as a desperate try, when everything else had failed, i thought about using the new tool provided by shakeyabooti LG UP to flash the factory KDZ all over
I put the phone in SW. update mode by:
1. Turning off the phone
2. connecting USB cable to the PC
3. Press and hold vol. up while connecting the USB cable to the phone
Then i downloaded the v20b KDZ file, provided by Autoprime (since this was what i where allready running)
Opened LG UP, loaded the H81520B_00.kdz, marked REFURBISH
Lastly i pressed "Start" and waited for about 15-20 minutes and "TADAAAA"
The phone where up and running again... only things lost where root and TWRP
- Sharing since I'm properly not the only one ending up in this kind of mess :laugh:

Just tried it no luck :/
So just to confirm...unlocking bootloader official way does void warranty and we can not send it in for repairs?

Indeed. Maybe you'll find a cool employee at your vendor who will still do it, but your warranty is definately void and they don't need to do anything. Depends on how acommodating the employee is. If you're stuck in a bootloop @rakinisbat just follow the steps in this thread.
And please keep in mind that there's a way to get out of bootloops 99% of the time (in fact 100% if it's a software related problem), you just have to do a good search on xda. Furthermore there's an uninstaller app for xposed in the official rovo89 thread, which you can flash via recovery and it which undos the xposed installation and your phone will boot fine (if you can access TWRP - just flash it). If you have further questions you can PM me, always happy to help

Thanks Mate, I guess ill have to try my luck with LG,
I have that batch of H815 with the faulty motherboard, unfortunately I'm in that 1% *Sigh* :crying:
Tried literally everything i could with the software, pretty much confirmed it is the motherboard.
It looks like the KDZ is flashing properly, as LGUP shows whichever kdz i put on, but the actual hardware is not capable of booting into the OS.

Oh yeah that really sounds like a hardware problem. Damn it LG! But is your bootloader still locked? You might have a chance to get a new one if it is And if it's a hardware prob you still have your warranty, haven't you?

Nope, my bootloader is unlocked, im a flash-a-holic, longest i have lasted without rooting or unlocking a bootloader is about 2 weeks. I would have never imagined such a massive hardware issue with a flagship phone. I'll probably get a nexus 6P atleast it has better support than a LG. I'm in Australia, I imported this phone when it was released, so i have to send this phone overseas if i want it repaired, which they will most likely deny.
Sooooo over LG now! There are like hundreds if not thousands that are effected they are not even acknowledging it or providing a viable solution.

I've got the bootloop issue. Phone was turning on or not, just vibrating etc. I've dissassembled it, assembled again and it started working don't know why...Now I've flashed CM I was on Genisis ROM earlier maybe that was the issue

It doesn't matter what firmware you have got. Bootloop is happening because of hardware failure.

Where did you go wrong?
Did you flash an older stock ROM than which was installed in your phone before you unlocked BL?
Was the RR file completely downloaded? What error did you get while flashing RR?

Why did you flash ota via adb sideload?
Very bad idea - why? Because I bet that ota wasn't meant for your firmware version
Only ever update your phone through the about phone section on a totally unmodified stock rom with stock recovery
Sorry but you will have to take it to a repair shop to either get it reimaged or get a new board that has the firmware already on it

RIP Moto G5's Bootloader Partition
This happened to me too and the only fix was the Warranty replacing the entire Motherboard.
U can try Qualcomm mode (qfil) or blank flash but motorola doens't have released that files (and never will)

@CypherPotato You seriously achieved that? They didn't check for BL unlock status?
I just bricked mine, still uncertain what happened, left it doing an update (OTA) with a 30-35% battery... dunno if the battery ran out during the update thus bricking it or the update with the unlocked BL did it.
Same situation as described, no response while connected to the PC only a blinking led.
Checking for battery drain issues (also present in the G series) by letting it charge for a while.
But commom, what Moto have in their heads, replacing the whole motherboard seems quite dumb, releasing the files can't be that hard. Loved my old Nexus 5, hardbricked it like 3 times and didn't take 1 hour to find how to undo it.

Yeah... Motorola sucks until don't released Osprey (Moto G 2015) blankflash files, since the bootloader is locked for an only and one shipped ROM you cannot update in stock rom anymore, and I don't known the risks of re-locking the bootloader inside an non-shipped stock rom. The best you can do is create an system-dump backup before flashing new roms.
Unlocking the bootloader probally will break all device warranties, because you don't will able to flash another rom anymore.
The unique and unknown solution is reflashing the entire device's memory, that we will need to use the Qualcomm's blank flash files and Cedric blank flash files to rewrite the entire internal memory.
The flashing LED only indicates the device failed to start, but he still alive.

Well this SHOULD fix the issue. If not, then I suspect the phone's internal clock is messed and needs complicated repair, but this a very very very VERY rare occasion, and I doubt you don't have this issue.
My phone just flashed a ok TWRP, but after I accidentally restarted, the phone didn't put me in OEM jail. Talk about lucky!
Just wait 7 days, activate developer options, click unlock oem, flash twrp via odin and after that is done IMMEDIATELY hold power and plus so it doesn't get you back to oem jail. After you are in TWRP, try not to turn it off to keep the recovery, and either install a zip that removes the 7 day jail or a cudtom rom. If you don't have a microsd to transfer from your pc to your phone, just use adb sideload. If you have any questions, just reply!

WAIT, so you need to wait 7 days before activating developer's option? Does that put you in prenormal rmm state? Because i already activated my developer's option, If thats the case then i already messed up

No, you haven't messed up! The 7 day jail doens't block you access to developer options, but doesn't let you enable OEM unlock. I was suggesting you should do this just to make sure you are not in the 7 day jail. Again, if you can check that option, then there is not a problem. Just try to have your jail patcher zip handy so you won't have to deal with this problem. Again, if you have any questions, just reply!

No, you haven't messed up! The 7 day jail doens't block you access to developer options, but doesn't let you enable OEM unlock.

Okay, the OEM unlock didn't showed up and my rmm state is still prenormal after 7 days even in flashing stock. I might retry this again in another rom carrier. I'm really at the end of my rope here

Don't give up! Try to go to download mode, flash a complete Samsung rom (with bootloader, modem, recovery and rom). I guess you can find a stock samsung rom on google or via smart switch. Download mode only blocks installing THIRD PARTY ROMS, not the stock ones. Try that and give a reply.

Seriously? Are you SURE you don't see OEM unlock in developer options, because any Samsung device SHOULD have the 7 day lift period. If you confirm that you don't see it, the only thing left to do is to contact a samsung expert. Don't feel embarrassed that you ask samsung for a third party thing, they must help you even though that may result in voiding your warranty.
Honestly, this is a pretty uncommon issue :/

I have the same issue. Started with Android 7, rooted phone, flashed Hades ROM v6 ( Android 8) which is fine, but I no longer see OEM Unlock in Developer options (presumably I did before installing Hades). Have tried the date fudge:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/samsung-a-series-2017/help/guide-oem-unlock-oreo-t3791774
more than once. No joy. Hades is fine, but I'd like to try the OneUI Android 9 ROM...

If you are still on hades, the dev removed the OEM unlock toggle to prevent noobs from disabling it which would bootloop your phone and twrp would also not boot. Most if not all custom roms remove it. So you can flash Oneui

When you are on cfw, as the guy said, there is no need. The rom is third party, meaning it's not official, thus it remains unlocked. But if you are on stock rom, then the oem unlock will be shown.

Punch your phone, return it, and get another one.

Nooooo! Don't do that! That would be a waste! Maybe its a bug. Try to flash twrp even though it doesn't show you kem unlock, and if that still doesn't work, give up trying systemless rooting and go full supersu by doing a one-click root (kingroot, etc). Maybe that helps. If it still not working, then I will finally recommend bailing and just getting another one . Sorry...
