i have the same problem.
is there a kind of deep calibration/reset for g-sensor?
i tried with gps status (there is an option to calibrate sensor) but it appear dead.

tried another rom, no change....so probably it's not a software problem.
maybe there is a ground/contact problem, will disassembly the phone again.

any news? same problem for me

Where is the G-sensor mounted? (Picture?) Mine is also defect, even as the compass. Is it the same component? or is it on a seperate board which could have a loose contact?

There is an app you can use to calibrate. Search the forum on apps/Themes and try it. Should work :laugh:

every apps didn't worked for me

Have anybody tried "Z-Device Test"?

tried all appz.
no one works for my problem.

hard touch a charge socket in desire hd and rotate phone

where is that thing?
Anyone knows where the G-sensor is located on the printboard?

Sensors not working

Hi!
I got a rooted DZ with several rom's tried out.
I believe that in the Stock OTA-ROM everything worked fine.
Now I'm at the Vision-Desire-HD-Sense 3.0 .
The light sensor is working a bit, but shows at darkness 10, at daylight 40 and in the sun 160. Another Handy shows 160 at daylight and 360 in the sun.
The proximity sensor always shows 9.0 ...
Is the sensor damaged or can I replace some library's or config files in the ROM?
Thx!!!
Domi
maybe is the rom. Try reinstalling it.

If it's anything like my Desire Z, your phone will be permanently affected by this. My light sensor just stopped working one day, and never started working again.

accelerometer gyroscope problem

after i reset to factory settings i cant rotate and play and games that require accelerometer or gyroscope anyone know how to fix this problem or i have to return my device?
Pain in the Ass
Hello friend,
I've been facing the same problem. I gave it back to my vendor who "did something" and twas working again! before I gave it to him, I was pretty sure twas a Hardware problem, bcoz running the g-sensor test in *#*#3424#*#* wasnt responding. the g-sensor wasnt calibrating and an app called AndroSensor wasnt receiving values from the accelerometer.
And now the same problem has returned. I'm hunting online for a solution myself.

I had the same problem, booting into Safe Mode and then booting back to normal solved my problem, you should try that.
Btw you can boot in Safe mode with holding volume down while doing normal restart.
Hope that helps

[Q] Proximity Sensor and compass, both not working any more

As title says: since i rooted my desire hd and flashed a custom rom, the proximity sensor ( G-sensor) and compass aren't working anymore. Tried to calibrate, reset, hard reset, flashed other roms, nothing helped. While calibrating, nothing moved, not the levelers and not the needle of the compass.
What relation do they have together? Is it one part? Could it be a hardware problem or just software?
I noticed some threads about a locked G-sensor. Tried to "shake" them loose. No result. Who can and is willing to help me? thnx.
Mine proximity s. isn't working either. I guess I will take it apart and have a look at it, could be dust or smth.

I replaced my Earspeaker yesterday since the sound had been really bad for som time.. while doing this I removed loads of dust located behind the Grid at the top the phone.. doing this ofc fixed the sound, but i also made my Proximity sensor work again.. and made the GPS get a better signal.. so really try cleaning it.. does wonders...

Try a fresh install of an RUU (going back to stock).
If it doesn't work then it shouldn't be a software issue.
Normally rooting does not affect those things.
When I flashed cm7 to my DHD the proximity sensor stopped working. It was an issue with the sensitivity settings of the sensor not being correct for AOSP roms. I fixed it using the app in this thread.

[Q] Gyro and Compass Not Responding Hardware ??

I have noticed that my Gyro and Compass are Not Responding to movement of the phone, and I am wondering if its a driver issue or a hardware one. Can any of you boffins give me some advice on how I may resolve this please ?

Download "Z-Device Test" from the play store, there you can find out if it's hardware related or not. I also would like to know what Rom/Kernel/Recovery combination you have, or is everything stock?
Well, I'll be honest and admit that I never ever seen a compass in my note 2, though I'm sure I seen it in the original note. If anyone could point me to it, I'd appreciate it. I did look in apps but not there.

Thanks for the reply. I have downloaded it, and it would suggest that the sensor IS working ok, but the phone is not recognising it for some reason. Would the kernel be a reason ? This is driving me nuts...

Hmm, are you on stock Rom? If so you can calibrate gsensor under settings - display (i think)...
Or you can try this if you are rooted
Or get this app and if I'm not mistaken it lets you calibrate the g-sensor.
Hope this helps

[Q] G sensor issue, slowly drifting to the side

Hi everyone !
I have an issue on my One X when I'm using the g sensor. For instance, if I use it to take a photosphere, the points start to slowly drift to the side.
I'm on CM11 M7 but i've had the issue for a long time even on CM10.
What's happening ?
I rebooted while pressing volume up and it seemed to work. I managed to make a small photoshpere. I tried to make another one and the g sensor was acting weird again.
No idea ?

have you tried to calibrate your g-sensor?
Yes, I've used GPS status and advanced tools that both have a calibration functionality. That didn't work.
Maybe there is another way of doing it that I'm not aware of.

This technique seems to apply to phones which don't have a working sensor at all. But I've tried it anyway. And it doesn't work.

have you tried a sense rom?
I have the same issue on my HTC One S ville running CM11. I was thinking about downgrading to CM10 but that doesn't seem to fix it as you say.
I would really like photosphere to work correctly. Does anybody else have this problem (running stock rom), any fixes?
