[Q] proximity sensor issue - Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

my desire hd was on official 1.32 (something) and then i flashed core droid 2.2 which was an awsome rom and i had no issues whatsoever, then just for the variety i flashed android revolution 2.0.11 and i didnt quite like it (i did a full wipe) as it was a bit laggy and the proximity sensor seemed to be off which was quite frustrating as it would not turn the screen off sometimes and when it did ,it would not wake it up when the call ends.
now i flashed leedroid 2.0 today but the proximity sensor is still not working right. i would like to know if anyone else has this problem. i am pretty sure its not hardware related because it was working fine on official rom and core droid.

Desire Camera Problem

Last time i used my camera on my desire i noticed something strange:
i pressed the volume up and down buttons ant the screen starts flickering in a strange way. after this it turns purple and stays purple until i end the camera application.
i use the original stock froyo rom with root, market and camera fix.
I have exactly the same problem
instal Vanila ROM or better OD od Cyanogen for best result with camera
& also with Android
i would suggest trying a different radio version, newest if your not running it. if you are, go back a version.
I've had the same issue, it seems quite common, nothing has fixed it apart from sending it back to the place I bought it. I'm on my 3rd desire now, and this one is going back for the camera glitch fault too, 1st one had no camera flash, 2nd one camera purple screen glitch, and 3rd one the same camera glitch.
HTC are aware
I too have this problem.
I reported it to HTC and they have escalated the issue. They said they have had 2 reports of it(!)
So any of you guys want to report it to HTC too, it may up their priority to resolve it!
workaround - If you set your phone to airplane mode before you use the camera, it should be OK

i dont have this issue, running rooted stock 2.10, my radio in my signature

[Q] Random crashes when using GPS

Hi everyone,
both my wife and I own a HTC Desire (AMOLED). My wife has had the following problem for a while on her unrooted, stock-ROM Desire:
Every now and then the Handy will suddenly restart (show the HTC boot logo) when using Navigation apps. No matter if Google Maps Navigation or other navigation software. Sometimes, this happens after some seconds, sometimes after an hour or so.
No problems so far with my desire.
Last month, I rooted/s-off'ed both devices, did a full wipe and complete fresh install of all apps of both devices, both running on InsertCoin 1.1.4 now.
On this occasion, I also updated Radio ROM of both phones to 32.56.00.32U_5.17.05.23 (latest Version so far, I think).
Some days later, my phone now also randomly crashes on GPS navigation use. Both run stable, as long as we do not use GPS navigation.
Any ideas on how to fix this?
It's usually an overheating issue that needs HTC to swap the mainboard

Thanks for your reply, though it's sure not what I wanted to hear (actually, what I wanted to hear is something like "push this button and your problem will be solved", but it's not what I expected .
(On overheating: The phone did never crash on other occasions when becoming warm. After a reboot, when restarting navigation, it does not crash again immediately but may work for hours...not too typical for an overheating problem, is it?)
I think I'll wait 'till spring 2012 and get some Ice Cream Sandwich thing then ;-)
You know the desire has a 2 year warranty though, right??

[Q] Desire HD multitouch works fine then stops.. need reboot to start again!

Hiya guys,
I've searched and searched and found nobody with my issue and I would very much like some help here. The multitouch on my HD works fine, using the multitouch visual test I can see its working fine, up to four fingers. But then after some usage it seems to randomly stop working?
After some use the multitouch ceases to run from independent fingers and instead if I have two fingers down and lift one finger it stops recognizing both completely. This is not just for downloaded apps but system apps too.
SO in short my multitouch works fine, then after some use it stops and when I lift any finger any remaining fingers touching the touchscreen are no longer recognized?
I am currently running android 2.3.5 official (not rooted) software version 3.12.405.1
Please help
500 views and no replys o.0 Either this is a common problem or lots of people want to help haha. Either way I found my own solution, not too sure if this just works for me or not but here it is - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1502700

Intermittent WiFi and dead sensors!

Hi, I have nexus 2013 with Android 6.0.1, since this update and issue came all along and I don't know why!
My WiFi, is intermittent, it disconnects and reconnects all the time
All my other sensors are not working anymore, like auto rotation and gyro
screen sometimes is not being responsive, unless I turn it off couple of times
is it a software issue or my unit is dud? it used to work perfectly for couple of years though.
Yup same here!
Ditto on the rotation working intermittently. Works for a minute after restarting then stops working until I reboot. My wifi is solid though.
I am having the exact same issues as OP, doesn't matter which rom/stock.

I'm in the same situation but I'm not using stock rom. I'm using a custom RR Nougat Rom for almost 2 years, everything was working nice until this happened. WIFI either stops entirely stops working or works intermittently, and auto rotate doesn't work. I downloaded a sensors app from play store to see if they were actually working or not, to my surprise it says no sensors detected. I panicked and did a hard reset, and then it stucks at bootloop (can't get past the four dots, may be the ROM can't find sensors). Flashed countless custom ROMS, stock rom (6.1, 5.0), but still no dice. But then when I was about to give up, I thought I would give the stock rom 4.3 a final try and magically, my nexus successfully boots up with all the sensors working perfectly. Then I re flashed the custom rom back to my device in which all the sensors are working fine (ORIENTATION, GYRO...).
So may be go back to STOCK ROM 4.3 and then see if the problem persists. I see a lot of 6.0 people are facing these issues.
Good luck!

Proximity sensor stops work Android Pie

Does anybody has problem with proximity sensor in Android Pie?
For me it stops work after half day and only reboot helps. In Oreo I haven't this problem
I've gotten this problem during calls
Update: proximity sensor stop work in phone app. With other apps its works without problem.
Interesting. Has worked for me but I've only made a handful of calls since going to Pie.
Sent from my Pixel 2 XL using Tapatalk
new update: looks like I found why proximity stops work. I use Cube Call Recorder and this app after a couple calls "kills" proximity sensor in dialer app. I removed Cube and now everything ok.
I'm having this problem too, but I don't have any sort of call recording app. Randomly it just refuses to put the screen to sleep when I'm on a call. Really frustrating.
Same issue here, since few days I have notice that the proximity sensor during phone calls will not turn off the screen, only reboot restores sensor functionality that's annoying, also I have this pixel 2xl for 2weeks this is an irritating issue. Hope help comes soon.
P.S
No new software has been installed on this phone that I have not used on my previous phones essential ph1 and Samsung Galaxy S8.
Cheers.
Couldn't find this thread earlier.
I'm also facing the same issue now. Android Pie.
Anyone found a Solution?
#5 was my problem
