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.

I noticed i forgot to upload all the attachments.. I also have noticed that people have this problem on Sense 5. This one is sense 4 o.o
Can anyone help me in this. Also the phone has its bootloader LOCKED. I have to unlock it now?

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

bootloader doesn't need to be locked or relocked for ota, only stock rom, stock boot.img and stock recovery

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

Can you be more specific with your request. Are you unable to log into google accounts but gapps or present ? Or you dont even have google apps and you want to have google account ? If you often get that duplicate provider authority issue, then it is better you switch to a custom rom floating in XDA. May be the Kinghunki's sense 2.00 rom with 1.45.708.1 update or some backups available (asian indian version and dubai versions) for you to choose from and install it.
For your chinese recovery problem. follow the below steps, which requires unlocked bootloader.
Is your phone unlocked by any chance ? My guess is it should have been, if that is the case then download the custom recovery from the following link http://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=16920 and install using "fastboot flash recovery philz_touch_6.48.4-a5.img" command in the fastboot mode. If you are unaware of the fastbooting process, follow the tutorial from the below link but use the recovery from the above link and the command I have given. This will install the latest phil touch recovery from this post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/desire-816/orig-development/recovery-philz-touch-recovery-t2824086
http://www.editandroid.com/how-to-root-and-install-cwm-recovery-in-htc-desire-816/ and then follow the instructions to install the custom english recovery.
If your mobile is not rooted, use the rooting files given in the tutorial as well.
Let me know if you have any troubles. All these tutorials appear bigger process, if you are the first timer or dont know what you are doing. But eventually they will work.
Hit thanks button at the bottom of this post, if you think I helped you a bit. All the best.

With all the time and worries you have had you could update your Firmware and flash Viper 3.2 from scratch, and that's what i would do.

Not the best link when he is just asking about firmware.
Are you S-Off or S-On?
If S-On, go to this thread to find firmware for your MID and CID. They MUST match, or the firmware won't flash properly.
If you are S-Off, the method in this thread is the absolute easiest way to update your firmware. This is the method I use.

How did you updated it to marshmallow? Ruu? Custom ROM?the reason I'm asking this is if you are s-off ,trying a previous ruu and seeing if it solves your problems is worth a shot especially if its happening only in mm,also make sure you get correct ruu for your phone,as you didn't provide info about your specific model

I used custom ROM and before that i was using cm11 and while using cm11 my speaker and microphone stop working i thought coming back to stock will fix this problem but it is still there.. and yes my phone is S-off. I tried upgrading it by Ruu but it was not installing.. and showing error 155.. i used both of sprint ruu but still i was facing this 155 error so the only way left was custom rom.. i installed kitkat custom rom then upgraded it to marshmallow..
What is mm btw?
Thanks for reply.

You have tried both-
1.updating via .exe files?
2a. Flashing mm(marshmallow) firmware first then
2b. Flashing ruu.zip with 0P6BIMG method?
Both are giving you headaches?

It could be
How did you finally managed to run ruu?you didn't say...
You are on correct firmware?
If yes than it can be a HW issue,sorry about it,but replacement maybe the only option
BTW what do you mean by "video not playing on Facebook" ,does it play in other apps(MX player)
