HTC One X stuck in airplane mode and no imei.....

Airplane mode stuck, strange solution.

Htc 1 x :This is what I did to fix it, after days with no signal and an Airplane Mode that was on and shutting off at the same time.
1. I got Airplane mode to off from the phones onbutton, from settings it said "shutting off", made sure that no wifi or mobile data was on
2. I pulled the simcard half way up.
3. Restarted the phone with the simcard that way by pressing the phones onbutton for 10 secs.
4. After rebooting Airplane mode was 100% OFF..yihaaa.Then I pushed the simcard down and put mobile data to "ON".
5. Working!

...well it started again now I turned whatever I could to OFF in my settings and got it back on again after restarting.

Is there a good antivirus for Android you think?

Try 'AVAST ANTIVIRUS'.

After hard reset and viruscheck...

Third solution: As the glass is broken i figured some connector might be broken so during a restatart I pressed the glass hard downwards and guess what?

Now it starts up as usual.

Stuck in Airplane mode

Well I had my One X stuck in Airplane mode for about 5 months, initially after I couldn't get it off and there was mostly guess work on most forums, like try this and try that etc, I tried all the supposed solutions but none worked so I bought another phone but every now and then I'd have another crack at the One X to try to figure out how to fix it.
Today was the day, after a lot of trying this and that once again I ran a Super Wipe Script, put Renovate Final 4 Rom in the root directory of the phone, went into the recovery wiped everything and reset it to factory default, went into Advanced/Mounts and Storage unmounted everything ( cache, data, system, formatted cache, data and system then remounted everything again, manually flashed the Renovate final 4 kernel ( I'm unlocked S On) installed the Renovate final 4 Rom and to my surprise it booted into set-up and when finished I was on the net, unbelievable.
I probably had a bit of over kill with what I did and don't know how much of it was necessary but I was desperate and had nothing to lose cos if I didn't fix it this time the phone was going to be a bin job.
So if u have one of these (bricks) all is not lost and it can be fixed
I hope this helps somebody out there with the same problem
:laugh: :fingers-crossed:

I have now the same problem with my htc one x, please give to me the links of the rom that you used, and of Super Wipe Script.

Thank you very much.

Switch the power off and hold the power and volume down button for a few seconds until the soft touch keys (bottom three) flash a few times. I had this once and couldn't get it to work until i simulated a 'battery pull', which the above action imitates.

Hope it fixes this issue.

i had the same problem and simulate 'battery pull' helped.
thx a lot, i lost without my HTC.

The solution

Hello people,

I had this extremely annoying problem and tried nearly every rational or irrational so-called "solution" (flashing custom roms, restoring nandroid backups, meddling with kernels, pressing and holding the power button for ten seconds, etc.) to no avail.

I think this solution is the only definitive one and I've stumbled upon it by mistake while I was looking at the mainboard circuitry to figure out whether something was off and then realized that one of the antenna right below the micro usb port was broken. Since I previously had opened my phone up to fix the wi-fi issue and for a battery replacement, I cannot account for how the antenna broke but I do know now that the problem is due to lack of contact between the antenna and the little plate in the back cover (similar to the wi-fi problem explained in length here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1688538) and it's probably what is happening to most of you who has been unable to fix the issue with a simple kernel flash.

QUICK NOTE: This fix involves minor repair; you will have to open the back cover and possibly do some soldering (you do not even need to unscrew anything).

Here is what you need to do:

1. Remove the back cover (it can be tricky the fist time, there are tons of tutorials on youtube)
2. Locate the antenna right below the micro usb port on the mainboard (I am talking about the ones mentioned here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2130751)
3. Check if they are intact; if so, try to lift them softly so that they will contact the plate corresponding to them on the back cover (the vertical, rectangular gold plate).
4. If they are not intact or if you want a more permanent fix or just like soldering stuff, apply solder. Again, the main idea is to have them contact the plate, you can get creative if you want.
5. Put the phone back together and jump in the air.

Conclusion: In my case (and I suspect in many others'), the issue was the antenna which is probably for DLNA. I have read so many threads and it appears even the HTC repair people are unaware of this fix and opt for replacing the entire mainboard. This is a relatively easy and cheap fix and I hope it helps others.

Cheers!
---------IMPORTANT UPDATE---------
The problem turned out to be about the flex cable that connects the mainboard to the docking board/network board. It had come loose due to broken gate; I am now certain that the problem was due to that. Again, this issue is a hardware problem and has to do with a loose flex cable.

Sorry for the previous misleading guide. Bu this IS still hardware related

The missing IMEI is not the hardware problem the IMEI is stored on the chip not on the plate ot on in the antena and the airplane mode is on because of the missing IMEI

Well, that might be true but in this case, people aren't actually missing their IMEI because it shows up when you do a getvar check in the fastboot mode. Considering the fact that some people were able to temporarily fix this problem by firmly pressing on the screen hard and that HTC One X is infamous for its design flaws regarding the antennae and plates on the backcover (especially the Wi-Fi issue) AND that I was able to fix my phone which had all the symptoms described by others this way without changing its software is PROOF that this fix works. Your reply is just speculation.

I strongly urge others who do not want to or who are unable to spend hundreds of dollars for a mainboard replacement to try this method. I tried it more than once (did a sloppy solder job the first time), it certainly WORKS.

Htc one x airplane mode not turning off problem

doc_j said:
Solved! My problem was the boot.img I flashed boot.img for ARHD 13 before and that was the reason. So after flashing boot.img for 15.0 all is OK.

Bakert12, try flashing hboot 1.31, unlock your bootloader, flash clockworkmod recovery, install previously downloaded and copyed to the SD card Android revolution HD 15.0 zip file from the recovery and finally flash boot.img for ARHD15.0 via fastboot. I think you have my problem, no matter how it happend

Sent from my EndeavorU using xda app-developers app

I am also facing the same problem what you guys are talking and I didn't root my phone or installed any custom rom.. You told we have to flash boot.img... Can you please explain me how to do that... Because I am new to this flashing things...

n4beel · May 26, 2015

Solution

Had the exact same problem. Flashing the boot.img from an earlier nandroid backup via fastboot did the trick.

akustycznie · Jul 11, 2015

Hi.

I have this same problem. I tried to flash boot from previous version and it's worked - I saw IMEI and do a call, but after restart the phone the problem is still exist. What can I do restore my HOX to full working? (I'm sorry for my english).

Edit:
I noticed that the phone after restart starts working properly after 30 minutes - 1 hour. Then airplane mode it's turned off and I can do a call. Is any solutions to do it faster?
