[Q] Volume key dead. Phone was in safe mode. Now back to factory default?

Hi,
Desire HD, rooted and S-OFF, with LeeDroid 1.1 & CWMOD recovery. Got up last weekend, phone plugged in and at CWMOD recovery screen, not too worried, happened before when charging up phone while powered off....
This time though, phone repeatedly booted into safe mode, pressing the home key caused phone to vibrate and volume down key no longer worked.
Eventually got back to a stock rom through flashing via fastboot. Couldn't install via CWMOD (just returned back to recovery screen, no error messages) and couldn't push a recovery image through ADB (kept receiving error message - "remote not allowed") and encountered a few other issues along the way (can't remember much detail now...) that made me think perhaps there were some r/w permission issues somewhere?
However, the volume down key still doesn't work (I've seen a few posts on tinterwebnet relating to similar problems with HTC devices, but no solutions anywhere...)
Couple of questions...
If I've flashed back a stock RUU, is the phone completely back to factory defaults in _all_ respects. i.e. is it definitely a hardware fault? or are there other, underlying areas where a software config may still be causing this issue?
This is my current config, is it as HTC will expect if and when they get the phone back for repair?

[Q] HTC One X keeps rebooting

My HTC One x all o sudden turned off and now keeps restarting till the HTC logo appears and then keeps on restarting. I tried entering the boot loader, it enters the boot loader screen and restarts again. Now my phone has turned off. But the moment I connect it to charger, it automatically starts and keeps on restarting. I tried entering the boot loader screen with charger plugged in, but again it restarts. My phone is just 20 days old. I would really appreciate a help here

Did you unlock it? If no, take it back for replacement. Otherwise, more info needed. Your rom, kernel, recovery, hboot version

No, I havent unlocked it. But replacement will take 10-15 days. If I can find a solution here, would be best. When I try to go to boot loader, this is what I get:

and it restarts again in 2 secs. If press volume up/ down button, the selector doesnt move at all. Thanks!!!

Any suggestions here will most likely include unlocking, installing a custom recovery and rooting, all of which will be used against you in your warranty claim. Just take it back....
EDIT: you can try factory resetting first, but you say you cannot use vol keys. The only other thing you can do is to find your matching ruu and run that from your pc.

3 things:
1. When I connect my phone to computer, it again starts restarting like when i connect it to charger. question: Can I install RUU in such condition? I mean does the on/ off state of phone matters?
2. Will installing RUU void my warranty?
3. How can I find the right RUU for my phone?
Many thanks!

Ruus are official htc releases so warranty will be fine. Applying it in that situation will probably not work and come to think of it can make things worse.

I have the exact same problem with my HTC One X. When I power up, it will try to boot, launch into the HTC splash screen, then go black and reboot again, ad infinitum. If I keep the lower-volume button down, it will launch into the boot selector screen, then go black, and reboot again, etc. As if the power button were stuck.
My guess is: something's really wrong with the ROM at a very basic level, or it actually *is* a short circuit in the power button or something like that. I'm going to bang it against a wall for a while and then take it apart to see what's what.
Thing is, I know exactly what happened to my phone: I made it go for a swim. And smart kid that I am I never insure my electronics. So I've probably irreparably borked a perfectly fine machine and screwed myself for a nice €450.
Edit: Should of course have powered down the phone as soon as I noticed it was wet, then put it in a bag of rice, and kept it there fore a couple of days. Probably too late now, but I'll give it a try anyway.

If you can get into fastboot see if you can run the command:
fastboot erase cache
Have you recently flashed a rom by any chance?
If you have did you ensure you opened the .zip file and extracted the boot.img file and flashed that seperately? Again with fastboot...
fastboot erase cache
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot erase cache
Is always a good procedure to follow.
If you have recently just flashed a different kernel other than that recommended/or came with the ROM, did you make sure you repacked it to provide you with a compatible boot.img?
If you did and you followed the steps above to flash the boot.img its also good practice to wipe cache and dalvik cache again in recovery prior to flashing the modules that came with it.

I'm having the same issue with my phone. Seems like the power button is stuck, it keeps restarting itself until the battery drains out. As soon as I plug it to charge, the reboot process starts over and over again. I really want to open it up and check the power connectors, but I wonder if there's a better advice before I do that.

Hey.I have had the same problem with my HOX.it was restarting every time I plug the cable.it was because of bad updating process .
1.for charging your phone do not need to open the device and charge the batt.Google for script charging.you will find an script to fast boot it .
Your phone will restarting every 6 seconds.and will charge.
2.relock it.
3.use your riht RUU

HTC one x turns off when i switch to HDR camera mode
Hello guys my HOX has a problem that when ever i switch on to HDR it shuts down and keeps restarting.. another problem is that it shows different battery status than the original .. 5 min ago it showed 23% than it switched off and showed 60% and i guess this auto turning off is some how related to this battery issue it never gave me a low battery sign.. i dont understand whether its a software issue or hardware.. i was running stock 4.1.1 now i flashed renovated rom but the problem persists .. plz i will appreciate help from you guys .. my specs are as follows
build version 3.14.401.31
baseband version 5.1204.162.29
kernel version 3.1.10 at renovated rom
hboot 1.36

I thought you should have hboot 1.39 with that ROM?
Looks like something is funky, I would flash the RUU (htcruu.com), but that will wipe your phone.

Hi, I have similar problem recently. So, What I tried is: press the power button when the One X reboots (before allowing it to enter to splash screen) - Just once. And instead of repeating with restart it just goes to htc One logo and turns on fine. May be the problem which you noticing could be some other flavor of it. But, give a try.

What a bump... 5 month old topic... I'm sure he fixed this problem by now...

Htc one S keeps restarting !
Hey guys i have the same problem with my HTC ONE S.
The other day in class i switched on the Bluetooth and every since it keeps restarting.
I finally figured out out to get it to the bootloader (at this stage it doesn't restart) and i can move around by pressing the up/down volume buttons.
How can i possibly fix this problem? Factory reset is not an option as i have a ton of photographs and apps installed and dont want to lose them.
This is the stuff it shows me in boot loader

Even i Have the same problem My HTC One X+ hits til the Splash Screen and turns Off when contacted HTC Service center in India they Said its problem with the Mother Board and needs to be replaced and charging a Bomb Price of 17k jus for replacing.
Is Your Htc Working fine as of Now Please Do Reply.
:good:

I have the same problem with my HTC ONE X. It starts, enter to the lock screen and reboot, and like this over and over. If i keep the cellphone turn off for and hour or two it go backs normal and a i can use it for a while and the start rebooting again. I think maybe is a heat problem cause if a leave him all night with the screen turn off it doesn't reboot. Anyone could solve this problem?????
I tried with different stock roms (4.0.4, 4.1.1, 4.2.2) and with different custom roms (paranoid android, android revolution) and the problem persists. all is left to try is changing the kernel but i don't think this will fix the problem.

Try the factory reset through bootloader...that often helps of flash again a firmware...it also wipes and that helps also often... But at thirst if you flash a kernel be sure to flash always the kernel from the Rom..
..otherwise those issues will appear

[Q] Possibly bricked HTC One X

Befoire you tell me this problem is already listed on the forum, I'd like to tell you I've read through them all and from what I can tell my problem is a little different;
I've had my HOX for about 6 months, I love it and never had a problem with it before (except for the overheat issue).
However, yesterday morning I woke up checked my phone and everything was fine, an hour later however the processor acted like it hung and then rebooted itself. When it booted back up I was greeted with the HOX boot menu:

I have tried all the options and they all seem to loop back into the boot menu, when it first started I was able to power up and get to the bootmenu, however a day later it is giving me nothing unless I plug it into my pc. I have read alot of people accounting this problem to screwing up while trying to install a custom rom, something which has never been done to my phone. The only app I installed recently before the error was touch from the play store, however my contract phone bill is currently late (was cut off on friday, phone locked itself on the saturday), could it be that my carrier (vodafone UK) may have locked my phone for non-payment? Did the app cause my phone to crash? Or is this just random bad luck?
Any advice or help on this subject would be awesome

Seems like random bad luck...
Select hboot and do a factory reset. If that does not work, return the device for warranty repair.

Just tried that, reboots and then loops back into the bootmenu, when selecting hboot I get an error though:
SD Checking...
Failed to open usb master mode
Loading PG46IMG.zip image...
Failed to open usb master mode
(another line here but it moves back to the hboot menu before i can read it)

The error is because you probably had it on the charger. That's normal, we all have that.
But like TT said.....return it for warranty. A full locked bootloader must give you 100% warranty !

yeah i would send it back as well.. shame but hey at least they will replace it for you or repair it

Hi i think im having a similar problem, HOX running cyanogenmod 10.1 beta 7, i was playing with my phone last night and went a bit mad uninstalling apps (CM Updater was one :silly, i set the cpu to performance (which i hadnt really done before, not sure if has any effect) but i noticed after i tried setting it back to on demand none of the frequencies would lower i just ignored this turned my screen off and then it wouldnt turn back on so i turned it off by holding the power button and put it on charge and fell asleep and completely forgot about it until i woke up about 15 minutes ago, FANTASTIC.
It was on charge but the charge indicator was just flashing Then when i tried turning it on it only got to the cyanogenmod bootscreen. So i rebooted into bootloader where it tells me the battery is too low to flash anything, even though its been on charge all night? I then proceeded to do a factory wipe and restore my backup which succeeded but now i get as far the "htc one x with beats audio" boot screen.
I have heard that it could be from using the wrong charger which could be as i wasnt using the stock charger but as soon as i changed to that it charges(????) with a solid red indicator. Still stuck on the boot screen. I fear for the worst unless anyone can shed any light :crying::crying::crying:

Did you also flashed the boot.img from the backup and performed a full wipe before restoring ??? Otherwise it will never boot.
You cant flash anything......try this !?
Enter the recovery if you can and wipe the batt stats, then put the phone in the bootloader and execute this script from inside the fastboot folder.
http://db.tt/aLqeTpPO
Or when you have a custom recovery where you can charge inside....leave it in the recovery and try charging from there.

Ok cheers! The boot.img in the backup folder yes? Not the rom one? Also I left my phone on charge for a bit after i powered down from the bootloader and now theres no low battery warning so i guess that must be a good sign?!

Yep and if you restore the backup then yes you must flash the boot.img from that backup. And yes its in the backup folder
Don't forget to do this right after flashing the boot.img
Fastboot erase cache
It prevents from having problems booting into the recovery

yessssssssss!!!!!! thank you so much you are an actual hero!!!!!! second problem ive had and both times youve helped me fix it!!! next time i wont get high before i start messing with system files and stuff lmao

Help please: recovery.img specifically for HTC Desire 820 Lollipop required.

Hi All,
Long time reader, first time poster
Short story: I just need a straight link to a recovery.img file specific to my device which is a HTC Desire 820.
Long story:
- Upgraded my phone to Lollipop.
- Unlocked my HTC phone.
- Followed a guide on the net regarding flashing TWRP recovery image and rooting (did not realise I was unknowingly flashing a previous / incompatible version on my phone).
- Now stuck with a phone that can't boot to recovery or factory reset (because it then tries to boot to recovery when doing this).
- I can get into the boot loader screen and fastboot, but selecting HBOOT and then RECOVERY makes my phone vibrate a little and flashes a message, but then goes back to the boot loader screen.
- I tried to flash another recovery.img file, but this just made it so that the HTC logo is displayed and doesn't get passed that.
- Now I just want to flash the lollipop recovery.img so that I at least can root the phone and not necessarily install TWRP.
Any ideas?
Thank you in advance.

So... no ideas?
lol *bump*

Thanks for responding and providing guidance @tomal.
The model of my phone is: HTC DESIRE 820 Model Number: OPFJ50.
Thank you in advance.

Power of your device and connect the device to the charger when it is in power off after connected you quickly press vol up+power button or vol down+power button then you find a charging logo then release the buttons after tha the phone goes off automatically then you quickly press vol down button only it gets the bootloader then you flash the only lolliop stock official recovery.img because twrp of 64 bit having some bugs.but they fix it you wait for some time.

keep on pressing the power button for a minute and then restart into the os .
still searching for the recovery.img compatible with htc desire 820.
please if you get let me know at [email protected] .

Flash stock official recovery....it having no bugs while booting,restarting,formatting the phone. but it can't handle the ota updates. You have also wait for some more time they will updated best recovery or stock ruu or how to s off.

Hi, I don’t know who or were to ask, my HTC Desire 820 was working fine, no problem at all. I got a voice chat and while listening there was a loud noise and the device shut off. After a few seconds it booted back up and didn’t load android, it was on a constant bootloop. I couldn’t turn it off or anything. After a while it shut itself down. Assuming the battery was low I connected it but to my surprise it wasn’t charging, the orange LED was blinking. I leave it plugged in for more than one hour but the situation continued, the phone was not powering on and the led was flashing. At that point what I did was to remove the back cover and reset the battery which make it begin to charge normal. After 30 min I tried turning it back on but the boot loop was still there. I could manage to enter fastboot and perform a factory reset. After it finished the device was booting back up and at a certain point the bootloop start over. The device was not rooted, bootloader locked, everything stock, since I didn’t want to mess with it because it is my only phone at this moment. I think on unlocking bootloader, and rooting to try install a custom rom or a backup save from someone. I have been able to unlock bootloader but TWRP doesn’t load, the device will not go into custom recovery and I have tried several versions. Now I don’t have the stock recovery anymore. I can go into bootloader, but nothing else.
I have to mention that now I have more than 24H dealing with this with no luck or signs of fixing my phone. Please, please any one that can help I will be very grateful.

SO in this way you have to s off the htc desire 820 and flash the ruu means os zip file in bootloader or type the command fastboot rebootruu in fastboot mode then flash the ruu with fastboot files with the help of computer.

But as far as I have read there is no way to S-OFF the Desire 820 so far. And I havent been able to find any RUU on the web

It is there to s off but you have to pay some money with the help of sunshine

I have used it before with another device I had. and to be honest I will be glad to use it again. the big problem here is that the phone is not booting, so I cannot install sunshine to gain S-OFF.
If there is any other way to get it done or something to allow me boot to the OS it will be great

The only solution for this is wait for a few days.because the htc desire 820 is the first model to get android 64bit.so the developers are not able to develop thirdparty code for it.if the device is locked go to the service center and give the phone they are all having the more stock roms to flash it.

.My phone completely turn off and i can not turn on it again (95% battery). When i try to boot it up, it just show the logo HTC and then turn off and the same thing happen when i try to access to my TWRP.
I think something happen to my battery but no, it still can boot into bootloader. I try to reflash TWRP, ROM, even RUU via fastboot and i do it successfully however, whenever i take the cable out, it will automatically shut down. My phone just stand with bootloader mode (without charging).
To summary,
1) My phone will turn off whenever i try to load to an OS or TWRP (can boot while charging).
2) Bootloader work normally without charging.
3) I already try a fullcharge, reinstall everything.
4) Before it brick, i saw a lot of FC come from google service of that GPE ROM and then it automatically shutdown.
I need more advice, please help me.
Thanks and Regards

does anyone know about this?
