I've never had a problem with my phone's audio until recently where it's become distorted and quiet, what could have...

I've had my HTC One X for a while and recently the capacitive buttons on screen have stopped working and I don't know what...

A simple solution/work around to this issue involves placing a small piece of tape or paper behind your phone's SIM card and sliding it into place as normal, don't force it, it should slide in smoothly with no extra force needed. If done correctly, this may make your SIM card fit more snug into the SIM card tray and enhance the SIM card's connection.

If you have the time and technical ability, replacing your phone's screen and digitizer may be the solution for a broken backlight. Be forewarned though, this is not an easy repair to do!

It sounds like the back light for your phone may be broken. While it's not easy, replacing the screen/digitizer may solve your problem.

A more conventional approach that may produce the same results would simply be replacing the battery.

Your best place to start would definitely be to check the battery usage statistics under Usage in Battery Manager in Settings. This should allow you to see if there's an exorbitant background apps or processes taking up unreasonable amount of battery life or any other potential software/processing issue. I can't pinpoint exactly where your issue may lie, but here's some general tips for getting the most out of your battery. (1) Keep your phone out of high temperature situations as this greatly damages your battery and phones innards, cooler is almost always better! (2) Avoid keeping your phone at 100% battery (3) The safest place for your phone to be charge wise is between 40 and 80 percent for giving your battery a long life (4) Avoid using third party chargers, even common car chargers may be more harmful to your phone's battery than the convenience they provide (5) Close out any unnecessary apps when you're done using them and dim your phone's brightness to elongate your battery life I hope this...

After a bit of google-fu I found a forum post from a user who had the same issue as you and solved it with a batch file script in USB fastboot mode. You can find the post here, hope it helps!
