Hello,
I bought an HTC One X with a broken screen. I managed to replace by myself the screen and all seems to work fine except the proximity sensor. To test all sensors, I installed CPU-Z and I see that the proximity sends no information.
I forgot to test this sensor with the official HTC rom and this issue has been detected with Android Revolution HD 22.0 rom. I disassembled another time this smartphone to check if the cable was well plug but the issue remains.
The light sensor which is near the proximity sensor seems to works fine.
So my question is :
This issue could be come from the Android Revolution HD 22.0 rom because I forgot to flash something. I am S-On so before I flashed the room, I falshed with fastboot the boot.img. But I wonder about firmware and hboot because in the rom thread, they talk about it but I don't succeed to flash firmware without error

Hi to everybody, I got a rooted Desire and the camera it's not working, when I run the camera app i'm just getting a black screen.
I don't know why, I tought it was about the ROM I was using (it was Auraxtsense), then I tested OpenDesire, LeeDroid, and now I'm using a root stock 2.2 ROM but neither of them let me use the camera.
I'm using the radio 32.44.00.32U_5.09.05.30_2 but I've also tried the last one I found here, the 32.48.00.32U_5.11.05.14 with no luck.
Now I have the next:
HTC Stock ROM 2.2 2.10.405.2
Radio: 32.44.00.32U_5.09.05.30_2
kernel: 2.6.32.15-g6a358a9
In case that it's a hardware problem, I remember to read somewhere here that it exists a program so you can test your Desire hardware by typing a code, does anybody remember it?
Thanks in advance and thanks for your help.
Regards!
Did you wipe before each flash? If not try that first.

Yes, I've wiped all the times I changed the ROM.
Download Z-DeviceTest from the market and test your camera. If your camera hardware is working, you should see it's specs listed and the image seen by the camera shown on the top left of the screen.
If the hardware is not working, the camera module could be loose in it's socket on the phone's mainboard, or (more likely) you have defective hardware (either the camera module itself or the phone's mainboard). Try to get warranty repair from HTC.
If you don't have warranty, and want to tackle some exploration yourself, here's the HTC Bravo disassembly procedure (at 2:10 you are at the point where you can remove the camera; camera removal from the mainboard is at about 5:25):

Fantastic, when I run that app the phone reboot itselfs, ****.
rete, thanks for your help.
Hey all,
About a year ago I got a new DHD everything was working fine. I rooted it (using visionary), tried cyanogen mod, went back to the original sense/frayo backup and finally installed a new kernel (Buzz)...
After that my proximity sensor stopped working, I kind of just put up with it because I was busy at uni, I just got used to manually turning my screen off. I thought it was something to do with the kernel and/or backup I was running. Since then I have installed Android Revolution 6.3.1 with new kernel and radio and thought it might just start working again but it hasn't...
My question then is:
Could I have done something to affect it while flashing/rooting e.t.c?
Is there any way I can check?
Is it likely to be a hardware failure? (the phone was less than a month old when it stopped working)
oh and I have tried Proximity Re-calibrator and it dose nothing (Unless it doesn't work with ARHD 6.3.1).
Thank you for your time.
This is a common problem. It's in the faq of the ARHD rom and the answer is:

I have tried and tried Proximity Sensor Recalibrator.... no change.
What did you do in the app? Did you also read some of the posts below the first posts on how to use it? I mean, a lot of people have already posted there that they have all sorts of problems with the sensor. If there is really nothing that helps you I would try flashing at least one more time with wiping everything (btw, did you do a full wipe before coming to arhd?)
Yes used the super wipe as suggested.
I've been holding my finger over the sensor and increasing the thresholds, attempting to get a change, all combinations of the sliders and it just says 'far' continually.
Thanks for replying, sorry if its just that I'm just using the program incorrectly...
Full wipe and re-flash tried everything in Proximity Sensor Recalibrator nothing changes...
Hello everybody ....
My problem is with the accelerometer as about one month ago i needed try one sense rom on my G2 so i flashed the desire Z hboot as it was required to get the rom working , Yesterday i needed return back to normal rom so i flashed back the G2 hboot and flashed the rom & GAPPS , when it started the wizard of the first time i noticed screen doesn't rotate but ok , i thought maybe in settings is not set to rotate by default but after i ended with the wizard i found in settings that auto-rotate screen is checked , here i thought the problem is with rom specially that i downloaded one program from play store to test sensor and found that all sensor values are "0" , i flashed an old rom i had before with the G2 hboot ( accelerometer was working like charm with that rom in the past ) and i found that this rom too has same issue , screen can't rotate , I flashed back desire Z hboot and found that sensor returned to work again and screen is rotating the right way , i tried back G2 hboot with no hope , now i`m forced to use desire Z hboot to keep accelerometer working
any ideas ????
Just keep the dz hboot, if this is working you just loose a little of your data partition for the system, it seems you aren't the first with this issue but no real reasoning has been made to as why. Just flash whatever ROM you please, keeping the dz bootloader

Hi all. I humbly request the knowledge of the ancients! I have rooted my HTC One X and I installed the regular CM11 on it. Due to the power drain bug I reverted to CM10.
However, since then my light, gravity and other sensors have not worked at all. Sensor box reports no activity. From Googling I think my problem is a known bug with low hboot versions, but when I run Cid checker I get no Cid back so I am unsure how to go about upgrading my hboot
I have tried various fixes found on the google, such as overheating and crashing the phone to no avail. If there is a way to fix it without a system wipe I would prefer it but if it is unavoidable I can live with that.
I thank you all in advance for any and all help given!
Bumping.
Thank you for clicking on the thread.
I've loved my Zenfone 2 for a while now. I have the 64gb 1080p model. It was a well priced powerful phone for what I wanted.
However, I recently received an asus software update that completely borked the Gyroscope and some other sensors. I have read about similar issues online and testing the sensors reveals that they're not working.
Does anyone know how I can fix this? I have been unsuccessful in trying to install CyanogenMod13 or even TWRP/CWM. I rooted my phone and the bootloader is unlocked (white backscreen upon loading).
It seems as though ASUS doesn't want to fix this, would upgrading to a custom ROM provide firmware that would properly recognize and use the gyroscope as input?
I've tried wiping the system cache in the stock recovery, resetting to factory new and everything to no avail.
I am willing to "tip" or "pay" for someone's time if they can help me as I cannot auto-rotate or use any applications requiring certain sensors.
Thanks for your time.
I've upgraded to CM13 successfully now and the gyroscope is still not even recognized in Sensor applications. Is it hardware?
solution?
