For the last week or so when i had my phone on the charger it would stay at 0% for a while and the red notification light flashed. Today it's been even more of a hassle to charge and stay charging. Now my phone is dead and wont charge at all or even give me the screen telling me to charge it when i hit the power button.
It's not the charger, my boyfriend's does fine (although it's doing the flashing light thing as well)
 
Could be the USB port in the phone if you've already ruled out the cable and charger. I had that issue on two phones (original M8, then a warranty roulette M8 ), and I've seen several posts with similar symptoms now. I'm thinking HTC just has a flawed port design, because I don't recall seeing this being an issue with other phones I've read up on here. Usually it falls back to the cable. You'd think sinceif it's a non-removable battery, they'd put more thought into making sure the only way to charge the thing can hold up to wear and tear.
 
last night before i went to bed i noticed my phone was freezing, i had fallen asleep on it and it was pretty warm and when i hit the power button the charging screen came up. im not sure if it was the time or the fact it was warm?
