My soft button lights are stuck on. I'm not *****ing about screen bleed, I know all about that.
All of a sudden the soft button lights stay on no matter what I do. Stays on when screen goes off. Screen filter no help, also did mod to kill lights but no help either.
I've factory reset, reflashed, and cursed really nasty to it but did not work.
I think its hardware related because when I power down and plug it in to charge the lights come on. Strange. Thoughts?

If your rooted u can go to the play store and download Keyboard Backlight Controller. See if that works

You didn't mention battery pull... Did you try that?

Battery pull. Did not work. In fact I pull the battery and plug it in to charge with power off. Lights come on.

Pretty weird... Time to exchange as a hardware issue

Have to hard reset it or plug it in to charge for the screen to turn on. Anyone? Experience this?

I had it happen once, but not in a couple weeks and plugging it in, didn't work for me. It acted like it was turned off, but required a hard reset to turn on.
A little annoying but just a minor flaw. Has happened to me once. Yesterday, actually.
Hi guys,
a friend of mine has the Desire X.
Yesterday the phone turned off because of an empty battery.
Now he can't turn it on again.
Phone was untouched in that sense that it wasn't unlocked via HTC and no modifications of any kind were made.
When the phone is connected to the charger or connected via USB to the PC the LED is on.
EDIT: phone is not found via adb
Any ideas how to turn it on?
Unplug device from charger and hold power button for at least 10 seconds. It should reboot.
Otherwise press volume down and power and hold them both for at least 3 seconds. This will get you into bootloader where you can select reboot with volume buttons and power to confirm.
AW: Desire X turned off and doesn't turn on anymore
Does not work. This is what we tried in the first place.

show it to HTC if its not working after charging for some time too..and removing battery once..
It looks like an hboot brick... That's unfixable...

But he didn't do anything like root,etc.
But if it is a hboot brick, yes you can do nothing.

I don't know, maybe he took an OTA...

Hi what did you end up doing? Did your Desire X come back to life? How did you fix it? It just happened to mine. Same exact symptoms!
What actually happens when this occurs, and why is it not fixible.?

Can you just replace empty battery with another fully charging?
My HTC Desire X didn't turn on too (with still the orange light), so I tried the famous "Hold 'power on' + 'volume down'" for hard reset but didn't work. I decided to plug in my PC (I say it but I'm don't think it was decisive) and I removed my MicroSD and the SIM card and then, the previous manipulation (Power on + volume down) worked.
Hope it will help.
Hi guys, I was thinking about changing from a Note 2 to this phone. With rooting though I know a battery pull is sometimes necessary which seems like it would be a problem on the HTC One. Has anyone experienced issues rooting that a battery pull might have fixed? Or maybe there's a work around?
Pushing and holding the power button is the same as pulling the battery.

Thanks for the info, that just hasn't been my experience with other phones. Specifically if the OS is locked up. Would the phone power down in such case, using the method to turn it off as you described?

I have read that yes, it will force the phone to reboot. It certainly works on the s2 and the s3. Never had to pull the battery in either.

I had a freeze while playing with a new ROM and pushing the power button for 10 secs worked just fine. I wasn't even booted into the OS. Don't think it will be much of an issue.
Yes holding the power button worked for me.

holding the power down for 10-15 seconds simulates a batt pull. doesnt matter if your phone is booted or not. its a hardware function built into the phone not software based.

Thanks for the replies, especially this info. Worst case I could always let the battery drain dry. My next task now is getting out of my current contract lol.
So, I'm at work and I am unable to use my phone. Phone will not power on, I've held the power button for well over a minute in the hopes that it would restart but nothing. I was using the phone just fine today with no hiccups. I've tried charging the phone, but the light will not appear, so it does not seem to be charging. I've also removed the SIM Card, nothing as well. I've tried plugging it into a computer to see if it would sync, and yet again, nothing.
Any solutions?
I'm using the newest P.A.C. ROM, not even overclocked

Did you try holding the past button while the device is under a bright light?

I've looked at the phone under the brightest bulbs we have here, no indication of any of the sensors lighting up. It's really strange. I've been tinkering with ROMS for several years now and nothing like this has ever happened to me. You would think at least one of the sensors would light up.
Power is what I meant there, try booting into recovery from there

I can't boot up the phone, it's neither charging or booting or giving me any indication that it's alive.

Seem hardware issue you'll to check voltage of the battery (eventually dead), and try another usb cable.

I have used 3 different USB cables in the vicinity and none of them have worked. How would I go about checking my voltage?
Use a multimeter, if you dont have one youll need to find someone with the same phone and test with his.battery.

plug it in to an ac charger not usb let it charge for a few hours then unplug it and hold power or power+volume down under a bright light.
your HTC One is a doorstop, a brick, a paperweight, useless now.

your reply is not helpful. if you dont have anything helpful to say then what is the point of posting. other people have had this exact problem and their phone came back on after charging for a while. this is not what xda is we are a community that helps each other

I do not have a multimeter, I use to have one. When I get home I will use my standard wall socket charger and if nothing happens it is most definitely a hardware issue. Hopefully my AT&T store is open tomorrow and they can help me address the issue. If I get it on before then I will update this thread with a solution.
What caused this to happen?
