Hello,
My HTC one X+ device fell down and the screen was cracked.
However I was still able to use it despite the crack on the glass. After 3 days it started booting itself continuously, i.e. It shows the HTC logo then reboots (stuck in booting loop).
I read that i have to press and hold the Volume down and Power buttons. I did that and it takes me to a menu that it says at the top '*** LOCKED ***' with other instructions.
According to the instructions in the menu i should be able to navigate up/down/select using volume and power buttons. However the buttons don't respond (cant navigate up/down), and after 2 seconds it just reboots.
I also replaced the broken screen/digitizer and still the same.
Any advice?
Thanks

Update - While holding power button and volume up then letting go of volume up after
2 or 3 seconds while both screen black or on first boot screen for a nano second I
get a standing up android with blue atoms going around it's stomach. then goes
onto the lying down android with red triangle. Will I need to insert an sd card with some
kind of software downloaded on it for this whole format to work?
Here's all the problems. Woke up in morning and tablet chose to be stuck on 'android' animated(shine effect going across 'Android')
boot screen. I have made no modifications to the files etc, just stopped working.
To help you maybe know what tablet i got here are the two boot screens:

#2

Anyway looked all over the net and the seen power button & volume key and it doesn't work. Here's what I get and what i tried.
#1 (tried both volume key plus and minus button)
Hold volume and power button until first screen
appears then next let go of power button but still holding
volume key just goes and get stuck at 'android logo' screen.
(I have also carried on holding power button through to second load screen too.
But! Holding down power button and volume up button until 1st screen with tiny
little android in circle then releasing power button takes me to the green android lying down
with red triangle
#2 (tried both volume key plus and minus button)
Hold power button until first screen appears
then next hold volume key and still holding
volume key but release power button just goes and get stuck at 'android logo' screen.
(I have also carried on holding power button through to second load screen too.)
Basically to cut it short I have looked via google search and come across plenty of forums
and tried to access the screen which lets me format the device but so far has become uncessesful
I hope the images help you know which device I have and also the photo of the tablet it's self to help you know
(it has no buttons on it except the power and volume key and has no small(tiny) or big reset button to press
from what I can tell.
(Again i would post an image here too if it didn't have silly restrictions)

Hello XDA
I ran into a problem as a result of trying to get my Moto X to turn on (verizon). I used it until it died and then it would not take a charge even after being plugged for a couple hours.
What I did was hold the volume down and power button until the boot screen came on. I had the great idea to give In to my curiosity and boot into "BP Tools."
This brilliant decision caused my phone to start acting up: When it boots up now, there is a delay in the time it takes for my lock screen to load. The touch response has decreased, I get a Sim error on the top notification bar for some time, etc.
I tried about 10 times to go back into the boot menu and select a normal boot but the option screen (Normal, Recovery, BP, etc) stays up for a split second and then the phone proceeds to power on.
So I screwed up and now I don't know what to do. Help?
Hi,
My Zenithink c93 decided not to boot. It gets stuck at the android logo with three horizontal white lines above it going across the screen as soon as I turn it on. I've tried pretty much every button combination (power, back, vol up and vol down), but it didn't work. The only combo that gives a different result is power button + back, which shows the android logo with the words "Upgrading" directly beneath it, then turns off after about 2 seconds. I can't even get into the recovery menu so I'm really stuck. Also, the tablet is not rooted.
Things I've tried:
Wait at the android logo screen for 15 minutes.
Desolder the battery for 10 seconds and solder it back again.
Copy zt-update.zip to the micro-SD card and tried doing the upgrading process.
They all did not solve the problem. How do I fix this?
anyone?!!!
So the dog tried to eat the phone, thus the bottom part of the screen is dead so there are no software buttons to use.
Now where the problem comes in.
You go into TWRP to see if you can make a more resent backup but you can't see enough due to the strips on the screen and since the software buttons are gone you're stuck and it will lock itself and you can't even swipe to unlock. Since newer phones don't allow the battery to be pulled you're stuck until you run it down which will take days.
TWRP and any other recoveries should reboot when the power button is held down IMHO but obviously they don't. Few things are more annoying than something electrical that you can't turn off.
I found that if you hold down the volume up and volume down buttons then press and hold the power button it will force a reboot.
Forced power off is holding power down and power button: https://www.verizon.com/support/knowledge-base-215164/
This is also provided as a popup instruction when you first boot the phone after setup. So, there is a way to force it off, just not with a single button as you might prefer.
You may have found another option with the reboot process.
I can confirm this procedure worked on my Redmi Note 4 (MTK) stuck in TWRP after I executed "/sbin/recovery" from adb shell, which killed the touchscreen and USB connectivity (??). The standard way (volume down + power) did not work, but this volume up + down + power worked, strangely enough.
