[HELP] HOX didn't turn on (totally bricked)

My brother has a HTC One X (still not unlock bootloader and root)
yesterday, when he upgraded GO lock screen, the phone freezed and crash. I don't know exactly what was he doing but as he said, he turn on the phone by pressing power + vol+ buttons. And chose something which he didn't know what is this lol
and then, the phone completely off. I tried to press power button or power + vol+ many times but the screen didn't show up anything
I connected it to my PC but PC didn't recognize phone, and of course, it can't be charged too
Anybody can help his HOX please
I don't know what to do now T.T

how old is this phone if it still under warenty i would send it back to either if its contract and covered to them or take it back to the shop you got it from because it sounds like a full on brick to me.

connect it to the charger for ATLEAST 1 hour then try again. there are no options in the bootloader which brick the phone

yep, i agree... you should charge your phone and you will see you red led blinking... let it charge and that will do the trick

Then plug it to your PC's USB,if your PC can see it's presence and install drivers then it's not bricked.
Most probably your bro did a master reset from the bootloader menu and the battery was weak,if the phone doesn't boot after recharging then hold down power + volume to access bootloader menu and reset again this time with good battery

before having the problem, his phone was at full charge
and as i mentioned above, connect to PC, charge ... the phone didn't show anything

Hold down the power button for 10 sec to do a ''battery removal'' simulation.
Also did yout try to enter bootloader menu holding power + volume(phone off)?

[Q] How do you tell if phone is in download mode?

So, I had to replace the screen on my phone because it was cracked. But not after putting it all back together, the phone just boots loops. I am trying to follow the guide about unbricking your phone but I am unsure about getting into download mode. I hold down both volume buttons and plug in the usb into the computer, but noting happens except the phone just keeps boot looping. How do you tell if phone is in download mode? What does the screen look like?

If you get into download mode, you can't miss it. It is pretty obvious. To get your phone into download mode, shut off your phone (Hold power button for 12 second), wait 2-3 sec, press both volume button and then insert usb cable.

Hmm. Seems like my problem is something else. I can't get in into download mode. I cant even get the phone ti turn on if it isn't plugged in.

Could your battery be dead? Getting to download screen is a bit tricky as far as the timing is concerned.

USB should be already inserted, otherwise phone will just boot when you plug the cable in.
So usb pluged in, next turn off the phone via power button, now hold both volume buttons + power, should work.

^this has been my experience as well. Turn phone off. Insert USB. Wait for charging screen to flash on and disappear. Then press and hold vol+ vol- power until Download Mode screen flashes on, then release buttons.

First of all when in download mode you'll see a box displayed saying "download mode" it's hard to miss even you try to.
Here's how I did it. Instead of trying to push both vol + and- , press the middle part of the volume rocker. And press power button at the same time. USB cable can be plugged in advance or can be inserted later on. Only advantage of plugging the USB later is it gives you a proper grip and reassurances you've pressed the button combination correctly. Note that the phone will look for a USB presence before booting to download mode..hope this helps

You did hold the power button too right? I'm asking just to make sure, not trying to be a smart mouth. Try hold power + both Vol. buttons without the battery, and plug in the usb cord to computer (with the other end attach to the device already of course). If that works, you can put the battery back in.

I have the same problem, I was upgrading my f240 to KK but it stucked at 60%.
Now I dont know what to do & my f240 is stucked on 'download mode'
What should I do?

Is it still possible to revive a Sprint Note 7?

Sorry for the noob question, I've been trying to search everywhere with no luck.
I recently found a Sprint Note 7, and was wondering if I can still revive it.
It's currently at 0%, however, If I plug it in, it shows the battery icon.
If I try to go into download mode, while plugged in, by holding vol -, home, power, it just does a bootloop.
Is it still possible for me to revive this? Maybe a guide somewhere I havent found?
Thanks!

I can help you brother

Nice, thanks. What do I need to do?

Hello.
Here are the steps to force the download mode after the kill update :
Connect it to the pc
Volume down, home and power keys for 3 seconds then remove your fingers (3times)
Congratulations you're in download mode now [emoji6]

Im not sure if I understand you correctly.
I connected it to PC, phone vibrates, then shows the battery icon with the lightning bolt, computer does the USB sound, but on device manager it says "Unknown USB Device (Device Descriptor Request Failed)"
Anyways, I press and hold Vol- home and power key together for exactly 3 seconds, and nothing happens. I did this up to 10 times, nothing really happens.
Alternatively, I tried holding the buttons till something happens, which is the screen turns black, USB disconnect sound on PC, I release the buttons, phone vibrates and shows the samsung splash screen, then phone vibrates and shows battery icon again. I did this around 10 times as well, but no luck.
Also worth mentioning, I didnt disconnect the usb cable at any point. Am I supposed to?
Is there something I am doing wrong?
Update - It seems I can get it to boot into the the screen before the download mode when plugged into an outlet. However, if I hit Vol+ to go into download mode, it restarts.

A few ideas
I've had largely the same experience with mine. It seems to need an excessive amount of power in order to boot into download mode. I managed to get it into download mode while plugged into a computer by using a y cable to plug it into an outlet first, then swap the one usb input to the pc. However despite my efforts, the pc still would not recognize my phone, and Odin would not acknowledge that it was plugged in.

Problem with enter to download mode

Hi, I've really problem with enter to download mode. I tried 3 ways:
1. Enter to download mode from option in bootloader
2. Connect to PC and click VOL+ and VOL- buttons
3. ADB Reboot command.
First and third ways means restart the phone, second way doesn't work. I recorded video with 3 ways:
https://youtu.be/UKTsrEz9Nho
I don't have ideas. Help

Enter recovery by pressing Vol up + power from device switched off state. After you enter recovery reboot to bootloader from the recovery mode.
Better still hold down power and volume down buttons while device is switched off and insert USB cable which is already attached to your PC.

Did you read my post? I tried this methods

I get that you have tried all methods. But watching your video it looks like maybe you are not pressing volume up and down all the way while connecting to PC. I always set device in right hand so I can use two fingers to ensure both are pressed.

I'm having same issues.
Any solution yet?

The resolution is to plug a standard USB/micro USB phone charging cable into a pc or laptop (but not into the phone yet). Then hold Volume down+power, and while holding them down, plug the micro part of the USB cable into the phone. As soon as you have the cable plugged into the phone, hold down the Home button. Within a few seconds it will go into download mode.

You do realize that it is USB-C, right? Micro USB doesn't fit.

And the "Home" button hasn't existed in quite a few years...

You know what the person meant, stop being a smart ass. The concept is the same regardless of type-c, micro, or mini... Chill

Easy there killer. He (or she) was very specific in saying micro USB. Don't assume that people know the difference between cable types.

And you don't hold volume down and power you hold volume up and down and plug the C
