Compass calibration - Sony Smartwatch 3

Hello experts,
With my swr50 all compass apps give wrong values.
I tried to calibrate it, but..,
Suggestions?
Thanks
Enrico

You have to face the watch, in front of your face. Not laying flat

proximity sensor with GlassZone

hello everyone,
Ive ordered the GZ after reading recommendation on it here. i got it couple weeks ago and installed it.
however i have a problem with the proximity sensor...
every call that im making the screen turned off right away.
i dialed *#0*# and choose the sensor option and the phone turned green and vibrate (meaning something is covering the sensors)
i removed it, cleaned it over and over and again... still the same..
what i noticed is that when im getting the phone really close to light ball the screen turned to white, (what its normally should be)
downloaded the proximity sensor app and saw 0.0CM
and when its close to light then its 8.0CM (normally should be)
Im posting some pictures , maby im missing something
thanks in advance,

anyone?
Have my black glasszone on my 8.0cm device and it works.
It seems like you installed it a little off.
There are two sensors (light and proximity) near the camera, there should be more space in the RIGHT side (camera) side.
That has to be re-installed.
Tried that with mine, when aligned in the center i faced the same problem. (Don't keep removing the protector many times, adhesive will fail).
I have a white one and a black one, I had no problems when the white one was on and have not had any problems since I switched to the black one.
I love them both.
hi,
thanks for your comments,
I moved it a bit to the right where the front camera is, and still the same...

Maybe I am not having this problem because mine is 5.0cm... I don't know if that matters.
does the proximity sensor are SO sensitive?
Maby i got a bad one? :crying:
Perhaps it's light reflecting between the screen protector and the proximity sensor. When people bought the XGear screen protector some had a problem with the reflectivity of the white screen protector. Perhaps a darkening of the area around proximity sensor on the underside of the screen protector is necessary? But in the photos it looks like you have a black screen protector so I'm not sure, maybe it's a reflection from the white base of the phone underneath?

I had the same issue like you before when applied skin cover for the front. You may not apply Glasszone probably. Taking it off will definitely solve the problem, you may want to try clean the proximity sensor and see whether it works.
And my advice based on my own problem, do not apply anything on the front; cause it will make your proximity sensor not function sooner or later. Hope this will help
Sorry for the crap picture, X10
No problems with mine, and mine is the 8 sensor.
Did someone got the black cover for a white phone?

Here's a trick I found on this forum. Use a black sharpie and carefully shade the area surrounding the proximity sensor. Be careful not to get any ink on the glass part.

Hi, ive tried it with another brand of CD/DVD writer, and the result was that it looks like some drops of water or something not solid on the phone,
does it have to be black sharpie ?
thanks

Proximity Sensor Issue

Recently I got my digitizer replaced and now the proximity sensor isn't responding. I opened the back panel and tried to seat the sensor properly but none of that helped. The Proximity sensor finder app value stays at 0.0 cm (i.e. something is blocking up the sensor ). Due to this the display goes off as soon as I answer the call and does not become active until the other person disconnects.
Anyone with hardware experience Please Help
Regards
Is your screenguard blocking the sensor....????

To solve this problem, you have to be on miui stock Rom, but i prefer to use MIUI 6 by syhost as all the menu are in English while they are in chinese on Stock Rom.. Here are the steps-
1. Dial *#*#6484#*#* or *#*#64663#*#*
2. Choose Option no. 8 (this is proximity sensor calibration)
3. Hold your phone upright- you will see, the numeric no of 0.00 then, cover the sensor area with your hand and take away until you see the numeric no. changed to 5.02 something like that..
4. If the no has changed, that means your problem has been solved.
5. Exit...
6. Enjoy and feel like you got a new phone...
Solved it
As I replaced the digitizer there was a gap b/w the screen and the digitizer causing this issue. Glued it with araldite and Volaaa..it worked
but now facing another issue.....There maybe a gap somewhere which is allowing dust to go inside and now its all dusty inside. Any help ??

From where did you replace the digitizer? What was the cost for that?

Proximity sensor does not work with Asus Flip Cover

Hello everybody, this is my first time with a flip cover, so maybe it is a stupid question, but is it normal that the proximity sensor doesn't work with the flip cover closed?

A proximity sensor is a sensor able to detect the presence of nearby objects without any physical contact.
It often emits an
electromagnetic field or a beam of
electromagnetic radiation and looks for changes in the field or return signal.
If you use flip cover, sensor detect it as a object, as it covers all the time it doesn't work as normal.
If you want normal behavior of proximity, try not to use flip covers.

Smart cover function

hello everybody
Apparently the Honor view 20 has not the Smart cover function !
I've bought a clear flipcase with an APK named Magic Mirror but the cover fucntion doesn't work
However i've given all permissions to this application
I've tested the proximity sensor of my phone and it works perfectly !
Have anyone an idea ?
Thanks for your replies
The sensors are on the top of the phone near the IR blaster. I wonder if this is an oversight with the design of the case?!
