Hi there,

I have a really strange behaviour on my HTC 8x. Today it just turned off. The battery was half full a few minutes before it turned off. I did nothing with the phone, it was just in stand by, than I heard the vibrate and the phone turned off. And now it turns off and on again in a few seconds. The HTC logo appears and then it turns off after 1sec, and then it tries to start again and turns off again ...

Has anybody an idea or heard about that behaviour?

Kind regards
Chris

Hmmm.. I think I have read something like this on the forums pre-portico update. What kind of 8x do you have? Carrier? Did you get the new update? And for helping you with it turning off. Have you tried charging it since it started turning off? Charging the phone will force the phone to turn on automatically.

Yes I have installed the new update, after it turned off the first time, I cannot start it again. So I started to charge it. And then it just starts the htc logo is seen for half a second and then it goes of and starts again. When I remove the carger nothing happens. The red light for charging is also off.

Hmmm. Have you tried a soft reset? Or hard reset?

I can't do any kind of reset, because the device is only on for a half second
