yea, tried it, it restarts and then when I try to shutdown again later...Same issue

Sounds like a stuck on/off button. Unfortunately it's been fairly common. It's been discussed many times in the forums

I wiped the caches first and tried...No Go
then I tried factory reset . No Go

Update :
When the screen freezes when shutting down, I pressed Volume + Power buttons and the phone restarts now.
still if does not restart just by the power buttong

Odin it back to stock.

Sounds like left over data, bad download, bad flash, or a combo of those

sometimes for no reason band corruption occurs. I suggest the following in can
factory reset 3x
format system 3x
wipe dalvik cache 3x
dark side 2x
Odin back stock
reboot twice
Odin can
dark side again
flash custom rom
I had similar problems to you and this looking procedure cured them.
I have the same problem with my fiancée phone which I am on right now. Shuts off and starts repeatedly vibrating on a stock non rooted phone.... I never got around to rooting this phone, unless she did it and didn't tell me.but assuming this isn't rooted what do I do?

Please help!

I have the AT&T One X... Ive rooted it, unlocked the bootloader, blah blah blah. Im sort of new at this, so when something happens, Im a little clueless. The point of learning, I suppose. Anyway, today I did a factory reset and restored to my earliest backup. The phone booted originally but then said process.android something or other has stopped working. Phone turned off. Now, when I try to turn it back on, it wont go past the boot animation. Its not connecting to my computer to reboot it with a command, either. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated and ASAP.

Did you Factory Reset from inside the ROM? Or from TWRP?

From the ROM. Thats when it told me process.android stopped, then went to the htc one x loading screen.
Frankly, my dear, you ****ed up.
Whenever you want to Wipe ANYTHING you have to do it from your recovery (TWRP).
Boot into TWRP by holding the down volume and power, for what seems like a lifetime and try to restore from there?

See, no one told me I couldnt factory reset from inside the ROM. Very handy tip. Im trying the Volume Down/Power thing now. Hope this works. Thanks for the help!
Well I tried holding them down from submitting my last post to opening this one. No luck. Any other ideas?

Hold volume down
Press and hold power button
Count to ten no really count to ten out loud
Release power button
Keep holding the volume button

I will try this as soon as I get some charge on the battery. Thanks a lot
I finally got to the bootloader! What a relief. Thankfully I work with cell phones, so I had access to this loaner phone so I could find some answers. Maybe one day I'll be able to actually provide some substance! Haha

Now, however, I cant seem to find any ROMs installed on my phone. I know Ive done this somehow before, but how do I get a rom on the phone when the SD card wont mount to my computer?
And when I try to do a factory reset in TWRP it tells me in the dialog: E:Unable to mount /sdcard
Im beginning if this phone and I just werent meant to be. haha
Twrp did the mount thing to me as well. Still plugged USB and PC found the SD anyway. Copied ROM to SD, flash and bingo. Other option is to download the stock RUU.
PS I wouldn't publicly admit u work for at&t. J/k
Well kinda.

My computer still doesnt show any connection to the phone. I tried downloading the RUU and when I ran it on PC, it said it couldnt connect to my phone.
When doing RUU, make sure you relock your bootloader. Instructions here http://www.theandroidsoul.com/how-to-re-lock-htc-one-x-bootloader/
make sure you have HTC Sync and drivers installed if you are flashing RUU.
Also when u get into your bootloader, highlight bootloader and select it. After, right above that, in red it will read fastboot usb. Until then your pc wont recognize it.
It worked! You guys are all awesome!

[Q] Samsung Skyrocket help

I recently flashed jelly bean 4.1.2 (not the latest but whatever) and when charging it yesterday, it gave a message saying the battery is hot and i checked to see if it was hot and it wasnt. i booted up my phone and it didnt boot up past the samsung logo and cant get it to recovery mode at all. I know there are threads on this but i guess i could start a recent one.
Are you sure you can't get into recovery? If you are, can you get into download?

Now is when you're going to have to do some reading. You will need to odin the stock firmware. Go to the development forum and look for the stickies by vincom. They're you'll find one that will tell you how to return to stock. That's a good thing, because you should never flash if you don't know Odin.

You sure you know how to get into recovery? With the device off hold down both vol keys and power. When you see the Samsung logo only release the power button. Continue to hold the vol keys.

Were you able to get into download mode and connect to Odin and did Odin recognize your phone? You do know how to use Odin?
Were you able to access recovery as suggested by using the power button and volume button combination and maybe restore your back up? You did do a backup before starting?
I don't remember where it is but their are well written steps on how to do both. As someone else suggested read and research. As someone suggested to me "Don't trying to flash custom ROMs until you know how to use Odin to be able to get out of trouble."
Just a suggestion you probably know more about this than I do please don't take it the wrong way
Good luck

Still, after all this time with the device and people don't know you don't have to hold the keys that long. Device off--->hold power and both volumes until you see the Samsung screen... You can then let go of everything.

Before using odin i read everything i could read if i ever get a problem and started the process. When done and after troubleshooting the same problem still continued. Whenever i try entering recovery, it reboots.

For what its worth when I have a problem I can't find the answer to I Odin back to stock when phone settles I do a factory reset to remove everything on phone. If it reboots okay I start loading everything back into it.
If I run into problems I go into download and Odin back to stock and start over. Sometimes it takes me more than one attempt.
I'm sure their is a better way but I'm no expert. For the most part going back to stock has been the answer then go from their. Hope your phone is not hosed. Good luck.

It has a stock rom in which i tried flashing a couple of times. And wouldnt factory reseting require me going into recovery in which i cnt do. Could it be a hardware problem?

You don't have to go into recovery to do a factory reset you can go into settings.
A hardware problem is something that will have to be answered by someone way smarter than I.
I use CWM recovery and when I first started flashing I installed it using Odin.
Sorry I have run out of ideas Good luck.
Edit : just throwing this out their you could try replacing the SD Card.

You have to go into recovery to do a factory reset if you can't boot. When you try to boot what does it do? Does it try boot? And then what does it do?

Go into recovery and wipe caches and reboot, if that doesnt`t work go back into recovery and do a data factory reset.

My phone is stuck in boot loop

My phone keeps rebooting over and over again, it will boot and I can unlock but after 30 seconds or so it will restart I've tried booting without the SD card with no luck still, it is not rooted and I have no idea how to fix it please help

You have a stuck power button. Pull the battery and then put it back in. If it boots right away that will confirm it. You can try to clean it or have it replaced.
