Light sensor problem, low lux-value. - HTC One X

My buttons backlights are allways on and my screen in always brighter. I tested the light sensor with my g-friends htc one x, and my lux value was lower i got 160-225 in a bright room while she get 320 and her htc one x is very light sensitive to.
And i get very yellowish picture to using flash in dark areas, could it be the sensor to?
Can i calibrate the sensor, or another faulty hardware from HTC?

No one with same problem or solution?

light sensor, never dims

when set to auto adjust, the brightness goes up when light levels increase. fine.
when light levels are low or darkness, they never seem to dim back to low level.
they only dim back if i switch the screen off/on
do i have fault or is the a feature?
Iv heard if you have a screen cover on teh front it can cause problems. I have the zagg invisible sheild, and dont have a problem with it.
i have the same problem... and i canot find a aplication to set up how much light to give at display for each value it gets from light sensor... something like in windows mobile...the autoadjust is crap it hurts my eyes in a totaly black room
The official HTC screen protectors have holes in them where the sensors are located. There's a light sensor to adjust the screen brightness, and the proximity sensor which turns off the screen when the phone is next to your face on a call. You can't see them by looking at the phone alone, but they're there at the top of the phone screen, near the speaker.

HTC Desire with OLED display (not AMOLED or S-LCD?)

Hi,
My phone suffered a blow and now the display is just black. The digitizer works, I've managed to export the contacts to the SD card to verify and nothing really seems out of order (receiving calls, haptic feedback, etc.).
I ordered an S-LCD replacement display, seeing as the box didn't say AMOLED. It arrived, I changed the display and it didn't work (no backlighting at all, which was present with the damaged display). I contacted HTC and they said that the phone has an OLED display in it, that there are no big differences between AMOLED and OLED and that they can not officially provide me with an answer if I can put an AMOLED display in my Desire.
TL;DR
My question is: Can I buy an AMOLED display and put it in my Desire, which currently has an OLED display in it?
It seems weird, because I haven't read about anyone with an OLED display in their Desire and ebay shows nothing.
Any help is hugely appreciated!
There are only amoled and slcd displays. Obviously amoled implies oled. You cannot interchange them either. If you had slcd (backlit) then that's what you must have.
Perhaps contact HTC again as they or you are confused :s

The screen was backlit with the original one in it and no backlight with the S-LCD. So I guess it's AMOLED? Thanks for your help.

Depends if you're using the word "Backlit" correctly. OLED screens are not Backlit. Hint, LED = Light Emitting Diode. Each pixel emits its own light. LCD IS backlit, meaning light is shone through the pixels.

OK, I'm using it wrong in that case. That makes sense. I mean that the screen seemed to turn on, even though it was all black.

That sounds like backlit. A pure black display on OLED will not emit any light. The pixels display black by remaining turned off. Unlike LCD, where even to make black, it emits light as the backlight is on for all pixels.

The word I got from HTC Sweden was that my display was OLED. I'm almost more confused now.
Boot up the device, connect it to PC and start adb shell.
Type the command:
Code:
dmesg | grep panel
That should tell you what you should have.

Backlight Bleed

Curious as to how many of you have backlight bleed?
Download the backlight bleed app from the Market, set brightness to 100%, go into a dark room and check for bleed.
The first Ace 2 I had had backlight bleed under the 'Samsung' lettering at the top of the display. I went to the store and switched it out, but the replacement device also had the backlight bleed in the exact same place.
Yes, I have a tiny bit of bleed. But nothing to lose sleep over given that this is a cheap phone.

What is backlight bleed?
Looks like this is wide spread. Samsung's fault... Case closed.

Bleed
May I ask how many of you have backlight bleed (yellowish tint when the screen is black with brightnes set to max or at least a higher value) ?
I noticed on boot that my ace 2 has a yellow tint at the top of the scren (under the Samsung logo) and there is a little bleed on the top-left edge.
I attached a photo from top of the screen (sorry for low quality I made with my laptops webcam), here you can clearly see the yellow tint under samsung logo.

Capacitive Buttons dimming?

I've had my White / Silver HTC One for a few days now and it was bought directly from HTC UK.
I really like the phone but I've noticed that the back and recent keys don't light up as bright as when I first used the phone. Over the course of the week the buttons are getting dimmer.
Has anyone else noticed or have this issue?
I noticed that with my phone too...until I found out the buttons vary brightness with the ambient light just like the screen does. When the screen is dim the buttons will be dim and when the screen is bright the buttons will be bright.

Camera dual-led flash

Hi all. There are 2 LEDs, but when flashlight is on, only one (on the top) is active. I thought the second one can be activated when camera is used, but no, it does not help. Any ideas on how and when it should be active? Can someone check this on your device so that I can know whether it is a hardware issue with my phone? Thanks in advance!
It seems that's a kind of light sensor, or infrared led - because it even doesn't shine when I apply external 365nm UV light source.
It's the second light sensor which measures light coming from the back side of the phone. When you shine a strong light directly on this sensor, screen brightness bumps up after a while. It doesn't happen if you cover the sensor by finger. The purpose is to have screen readable when you're holding the phone against bright background (window, TV screen...) and in my experience it's quite a nice feature.
