HTC Desire X won't turn on - HTC Desire X

Hallo
My uncle has an Desire X and since a few days ago it suddenly stopped working. He turned off the phone and now it won't turn on anymore. He gave it to me so I could try to fix it.
Things I've tried:
Charged it for an hour. (LED turns on)
Removed the battery for a about ten minutes.
Connected it to the pc. (LED turns on)
Tried turning the phone on connected to the charger without a battery
Tried going into bootloader by pressing volume down+power button
Any other things I can try?
Btw the phone has no warranty and as far I know it hasn't been dropped.

You might have already tried it but what happens if you press and hold the power button for at least 10 seconds?

I held it for for about 30 seconds.
I put in another battery that didn't work either so I'm just going to give up and give it back to my uncle.
Thanks for the reply's!

[q] htc flyer best buy frozen solid

I pressed the vol up and down at the same time. My tablet then made 5 vibrations blinked the yellow light once. Now it will not turn on. Does anybody know how to wake this up again? I hope I didn't brick it. It was turning itself off at will. Sometimes during the boot, sometimes after 10 minutes. But most often it would only stay on for 2 or 3 minutes and then just shut down. One time it said battery was low. I have charged it so that my battery is full, and I am stumped. What needs to be done to get it working again?
What did you do to it prior

Ok, so here's another question. If it won't turn on , how do you know the battery is charged? Have you tried to access it via ADB?
HTC
I sent this in to HTC, they said no warranty because it has revolutionary on it.
I am the second owner of the tablet. I would like to return it to original if that is possible. I have not tried ADB. When I connect the tablet to the computer via USB I do not even hear the connection note I used to hear. So I think when I hit both up and down volume I put it into a deep sleep. Or like I said it is frozen or bricked. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated, I think this is going to be a really tough one.
It just responded again!
I just got it to vibrate 5 times again now I have it plugged into a wall charger and have a green steady light. I am going to leave it alone and hope someone can help me from this point. It has not done a thing for 2 days so this is really good news, maybe there is hope.

Now, press and hold volume down and then hit power. This should bring you to HBoot.
It does not do anything
I pressed the power button held in for 10 seconds and then held the vol down button and then pressed the power. Nothing at all. Plugged the power back in and the led was orange for about 2 seconds and then went out.

Any advice would be apreciated

Need some advice please
Any Flyer member who can advice me please?
Buyed a WIFI Flyer 16Gb Gingerbread stock no rooted turned on and suddenly turned off and got stuck in black screen (with some light in the back) vol down + power, nothing.
battery has 100% charge, but red led turned on and off ocasionally.
Any advice how to revive it would be greatly apreciated!
Thanks in advance,
Soft reset - Hold down power button only. Keep holding until tablet resets. You should know when this happens. You can't bring it up in bootloader/recovery (down vol. + power), until it's first actually turned off.
Does your PC recognize a device being plugged in when you connect

Thanks for your replies:
It didnt work pressing only vol dow for a while, or presing only power button, it never rests.
Just behind power button a green mini led is turned on now all the time, probs started when removed back to insert sd card.
Tooked off to make some tests but now still nothing...
If connecting to PC nothing happens...not detected...no asking for install drivers
Any other advice?
Thanks in advance!

Take off back cover... Remove SD card... Try to reset again, power btn only, hold down 20 to 30 secs., don't use volume btn.
Nothing happens
i would suggest trying to globatron's attention. if anyone on this board would know what to do it would likely be him

A red led isn't going to show with a 100% power condition. Later you wrote...

(doesn't make sense to me) A green led can't show unless the tablet is plugged into a power source and the battery actually is 100%...
If yours is a stock unit with a stock rom (and isn't defective), I would suspect a low battery condition that can't reset/reboot for lack of power...
Suggest you plug it into the wall and try the reset procedure again, and if still a failure, (maybe you can get some help from globatron or) call HTC.
...and then again, as I've read in other threads (that you've also seen), maybe all that's needed is a battery disconnect & reconnect. - Hope you get those pics, and if so... make it a last course of action, as you'll have no warranty if you do it.
Thanks.
Update:
I left computer connected to Flyer all night, and the day after it was turned off, then unplugged from PC and plugged it again, PC recognized the tablet and after that I ran the stock RUU, now it´s stuck on the process as it has been more than 20 minutes and progress bar in computer is at 100% with the following legend:
sending..........
updating the Rom image on your android phone
It is stuck there, how much should I wait? or if you recommend to do something else?
Thanks in advance for all your help.
UPDATE: RUU failed, says I have the wrong image, finished, exited and rebooted normally!
Now working, but I´m afraid to open the cover to insert my sd as the last time it was when it was turned off
Orb,
That sounds like it when into DL mode. On the flyer once you get out of DL mode it's normally fine after that. It seems to be random, mine did it once or twice, leedroid has seen it as have a few others.
After it boots again it goes back to normal.
Hi mate,
Thanks for your reply.
Very strange behavior. After all above mentioned I was able to use is perfect, even updated to OTA Honeycomb all went ok, installed some apps, etc.
Then decided it was time to test again to remove the cover and install my sd card, just in the minute I touched the back , not even finished of removing, and Flyer went screen off, now again I can´t turn it on. Could be a short circuit or something?
I will leave it connected to wall charger for the night and hopefully tomorrw will be able to turn it on again....
I swear never again to remove the back cover
PS: I checked battery level before all this and it was in 77%, now red led on power button is on...

That's weird, if it's not too much could you try and get a logcat (adb logcat) when its screen goes off while opening the cover. That should help us establish whether this is a HW problem(unique perhaps bad mainboard) or software problem (me,globatron,Lee, etc. experienced)
I can also confirm that it happened to me too couple of months back, but after soft reset it rebooted fine, but the backcover issue is new.

hello
Im orbs friend, my htc flyer still having the prob, everytime i touch the cover or pusih it by accident it goes back.
What I do is leaving it charging for awhile and press power button and vol down at the same time for around 30 sec for a couple of times and then it re start. Im guessing its not a software problem i dont find an explanation i even updated it to 2.3.4.

[Q] Phone got stock, finally work but..

Hello everyone,
I got a question. Yesterday, my phone shutdown do to no more battery. Once I got home (about 1h30 after), I plug-it into my computer for a good slow charge. I noticed the led was blinking red instead of staying on, but I though it was due to critical low battery. After 3 hours, still the same. I try to open it but nothing happened. Then, I noticed that when I touch the screen or button, the phone vibrate.
I then unplug and try again, same thing. I try plug into the wall charger, samething.
Then I proceed to hold the power button for 5 seconds. All three touch button start flashing and stayed on, but no joy, still vibrate when touching anything with screen turn off (not just no backlight, no image at all).
I manage to found out that holding the button nearly 10 seconds, it force a reboot and then was OK and charged at 70%.
I'm wondering what's the deal here. Is it a problem with the stock rooted rom?
Thanks

A problem with amaze 4G

I face a problem with my cell phone amaze 4G and I was wondering if someone kindly help me.
Actually, I was working with my cell phone after I charged the phone to 100%, suddenly it turned off and now it does not turn on. I tried to go into recovery mode (It's volume down, and long hold power button down right) but unfortunately it also does not work. None of it's LED turn on, even though it is under charge. It seems there is no electricity on it.
I should mention I have never rooted my cell phone and I bought it 10 day ago.

Try pull your battery out then put it back and see if your phone can boot. Or try a different battery if you have an extra.
I pull battery and I keep it away for 8 hours and after that I put it back again. Fortunately my phone turn on, but I faced another problem. Now my phone cannot connect to network. I mean, my phone does not have signal and it show this message “No signal”. I did a hard reset, but it have the same situation again…

Maybe you have to enter your apn settings
Don't know if it will work but worth a try. Power off your phone then take the SIM card out. Wipe the contact area clean (lens cleaning tissue is good) and put it back. Power on the phone and see if you get cell signal. Try it at different locations where you used to get signal. If still no go, you may have to contact your carrier about this issue.

[Q] Samsung Galaxy S3 won't turn on after so many ways (Literally dead)

Okay so I have my Samsung Galaxy S3 for about 2 years now and it's having a lot of problems for the past few months. At first it had the sudden death syndrome (when it suddenly shuts down and having that boot cycle on the Samsung logo) and now it's fine. But 4 days ago I was sleeping and forgot to charge my phone. When I woke up and plugged in the charger it was charging just fine. When the battery indicator shows 100% I tried to turn it on and nothing happen. Just nothing. I plugged in the charger back and still nothing. The screen was completely black. No vibrations. I tried to go into the recovery mode and I can't. I've googled some ways including taking the battery out, pressing the power button for a minute and put the battery back in. Still nothing. I've tried like ALL WAYS to turn it back on. I took my battery and put it in my sister's phone and it worked just fine. So I know it's the hardware problem and I know it's not the power button too because I tried to turn it on by using the charger (plug in the charger and pressing the volume down and home button) and still nothing. I don't know what to do because I have so many things in my phone and I don't want to do any factory reset (if possible) by sending it for repair. But if I still have some options please tell me otherwise I have to get a new phone although I really need my old phone back. Thanks.

Does download mode work? If yes have you tried to flash a stock firmware?
Usb jig or repair centre, given the other problems you're best off getting a new phone.
