Hello guys
I received my phone yesterday and it was working nicely but today when I realized, I saw that several sensors weren't working.
After several hours of wiping, flashing roms, RUU's, and so on... my phone is defective 99.9% sure.(NOT!)
I've downloaded the app "Sensor List" by Idea Matters, and it shows me 9 sensors, but the only ones working are the proximity and light sensors.
The first two pictures are from my phone, the other three are from a friends HTC ONE X that is working properly.
The difference is clear enough...lol! Can this be a software related issue?
The ones from him say Panasonic and all of mine say MPL.
BTW: both of our phones were made in Taiwan according to the invoice.
His is white, mine is grey
Tks
EDIT: SOLVED WITH THE STUPIDEST POSSIBLE THING EVER... after all of the trouble, simply went to task manager and did a kill all tasks, working perfectly.
If it happens to you guys, consider simply turning the phone off and on again.Don't do a simple reboot.
Have you tried this?

You can test almost all sensors without installing 3rd party apps.
yup the magical number is still 20% defect rate
color and build country seems unrelated also the chinese seems more affected
20% is not acceptable...
tks mate but it just stays there "put the device on a plane surface", and it doesn't do anything

Did you know that 84.175% of all internet polls about defect rates were complete nonsense, and didn't return anything even slightly close to the real-world figure?
It's true, I swear. I read it on an internet poll. ;-)

Never in this world do they have a 20% failure rate. A straw poll on XDA doesnt equate to real life figures, nor do any internet polls as such.
20% failure rates would be picked up at the factory without a doubt. 20% is a damn high figure.
Generally 1% failure is the norm , so at most if things really are bad it'll be at 5%. Never 20%.

what do you mean by clear out?
Omg... This is the weirdest thing ever...
After having unlocked, relocked, and unlocked the bootloader again...flashing the ruu, flashing several roms, restored factory defaults, restoring through the phone fastboot menu and so on...
Nothing was able to get my sensors working (g-sensor,compass,gravity...).only proximity and light sensor kept working.
The fix after all of my failed attempts was as simple as going to the phones task manager and doing a "kill all tasks".
This is the freakiest and weirdest gadget related issue i have ever seen.

you base that on what? What we se on forums are what usualy are called "vocal minority". That is the people that yells most are often the ones heard.
I dont think HTC has more problems then other new high-end devices like xperia.

It's a defect rate being measured in the poll not a failure rate.

Arguably, the poll isn't measuring anything at all. You can vote more than once, vote if you don't own the phone, vote incorrectly on purpose or because you don't actually know what is a phone defect or a third party software issue, and of course as stated already people with problems are vastly more likely to answer than those without.
The poll is completely meaningless...
Has anyone noticed on their note 2 that its takes FOREVER to connect to a call, IF it does? I've been able to verify the issue across both me and my partners phone. most of the time i have to redial because the call just drops. i really dont want to have to exchange..maybe its the sim card? ideas?
Mine does this to, but its random....it does not happen all the time.

Strangely, I have no issues at all. In fact, it's had some of the best reception of any phone I've had in a very very long time.
"Alright alright, hey hun, I'm in the Elevator and I'm about to reach floor 4 so the calls gonna cut out! I'll call you in a couple minutes when I'm out........ uh...... hello? Oh, you're still there. Well that was embarrassing."

Yes we are both experiencing it. I verified the issue with a test call from both our devices from multiple locations throughout the state. And, well, just from everyday use. I'm able to complete small tasks while I wait for the phone to connect. Like put my jacket and shoes on or climb mt everest.
Ok. Seems highly unlikely to have 2 defective units but guess it is possible.

My Barometer doesn't seem to work. It always reads as 1010.9 hPa, which is basically sea level. Since I am at ~3500ft it should not read this. I checked it with CPUz and Pressurenet, both read the same.
Just wondering if anyone else has this problem, or I need a new phone.

That would be 1012.5 hpa according to wolfram alpha. Mine has read 1010.9 since day 1.
My local weather station is reading 1026 hpa. Phone still at 1010.9 lol. So I think it's broke.

Or the app is not working correctly. I will keep an eye on mine, and see if it stays stuck. It could just be a coincidence that the pressure in my area happens to be really close to the reading that I'm getting.
Mine appears to be stuck as well. Though the pressure has gone up here, the app is reading the same value that it did yesterday.

That pretty much confirms it then. Hopefully just no software supports it yet is all.
tested about all the current ambient temp apps with barometer and they all appear to be broken and need updates.
Newest update to Pressurenet supports the Barometer!
EDIT: And now it is back to not working again. Odd :|
what about ambient room temp?
Try Accurate Barometer. Make sure you have GPS enabled so it can adjust for altitude.

I gave that app a try. It got my location and altitude 100% correct. It gave me a pressure reading of 1312.6 millibars. I'm now dead.
Forgive my ignorance, but what good it the barometer reading?
I know if it's going up or down it s used in predicting rain, but my weather widget just gives me the current rating without trend changes.
Mine seems to be working.

I tried a lot of apps. They all give me the same reading, when adjusted for altitude. Unfortunately, my pressure is now reading 1309mb. Weird thing is, my wife's phone has the exact same altitude and temp, and it is reading 1215mb. It doesn't seem like a whole ton of thought went in to this barometer. Oh well, the barometer on my S3 was just as crappy.
I have a weather station at home and my phone barometer is always in line with that. You may have a defective barometer. Sorry...

No doubt. Just not sure if I should care. It seems like I'm not the only one with a stuck barometer.
I'm past my return period. So I guess that there's really nothing that I can do about it.

Verizon has a warranty. They will replace your phone. The only downside is you get a refurbished phone, not a new one.

I'm confused so please humor me. Is there a temperature sensor and barometer in our phones? If so, is there a native app that utilizes it? If not, why would they include the sensor but no real way to access it appropriately? Thanks in advance
For a defect I think he would get a new one, especially in the first 2 months.
Guys I have made this thread specifically to address or review issues we are or will face on our G5 plus.
(OP will be modify accordingly as more issues are found)
First issue.
VoLTE connectivity issues??
Not really sure about these issues but some of the guys are facing weird issues regarding VOLTE when using only one sim on 1st sim slot. Are you guys facing anything like this?
I am referring to this:-https://forums.lenovo.com/t5/Moto-G5-Moto-G5-Plus/Moto-G5-Plus-VoLTE-issues/m-p/3610582
Solution:-Issue seems to be fix by first inserting any other carrier sim in slot 1 and register it on network than by replacing with JIO.
2nd Issue.

Yes when I first booted up my device with Jio Sim it was not showing VoLte but I just gave a reboot. After that VoLte came and everything is working fine.
I received it today morning and For me all thing was normal. Inserted JIO Sim in first slot and Other in 2nd one and VOLTE is there enabled in Network setting by default yeah though there is no icon of VoLTE in the status bar but calls works fine without any issues. So far everything seems to be good.

In my case during normal use no issues. Yes during gaming it does get warm but not hot. The temperature always remain around 40°C while gaming. And yes you are correct due metallic back the whole back surface may feel warm since metal dissipate the heat to keep the Cpu cool.
If your device gets temperature around 45°C then its getting heated up.

Hi all,
I have recently been noticing ghost scrolls, where I would be slowly scrolling downwards, say, in the XDA app or reddit app, and randomly it would scroll quickly upwards when I lift my fingers. I was thinking this was a hardware issue so I got a replacement device on the way. However, I saw this https://www.reddit.com/r/GooglePixel/comments/7rczu2/scrolling_up_when_scrolling_down/.
Has anyone else been experiencing the same thing? I posted a vid and pic https://imgur.com/a/ny8fT. The second pic is touch input trace enabled in developer options, you can see there was a ghost long fast drag down to the bottom below the navbar.
Have been away from XDA for a while, please let me know if I am going against any rules about posting images hosted on other sites.
I wonder if something like this is what causes Twitter to randomly show me a different tweet when I tap on one. (maybe it's doing a phantom scroll briefly).

yep, thats happened to me a few times before as well. Not twitter specifically, but in reddit I would click on a post, and somehow I would end up on some random other post like 2 post below it, and if I hit back once, I get to the post I originally intended to click on instead of the subreddit list.
So there must be some sort of ghost touches/scrolls on finger release, causing the unintended post to be queued up just before the intended one.
I'm surprised there hasn't been more people bringing up this issue (assuming this is indeed a software 8.1 issue and not an isolated issue in the touch panel).
Reddit has done that to me too, come to think of it.
Agreed that it's surprising we aren't hearing more of this. Makes me wonder if I should do a warranty swap.

Oh really? Have you only experienced this on 8.1 only, or also 8.0? I had the pixel 2 xl back in October/November on 8.0 and didn't experience any of this. I just repurchased the 2 xl several days ago and immediately noticed it within the first few hours of playing around with it.
I think it definitely is a software bug, if not a hardware issue. The touch input trace shows a ghost drag of a perfectly straight line to the bottom of the touch panel with an incredibly high Yv, I got one as high as 179. Normal hard flick scrolling would top out at around 30 or 40, so definitely something fishy going on here, whether it's software or hardware.
It happens for me like between 5 and 10 times within half an hour to an hour, and they are usually annoying enough where I lose my place where I was scrolling.

prolly 8.1.. i got mine around december late nov. pretty sure its software related.. they had an issue with touch on the lockscreen right?
It seems like so many touch issues with 8.1 release. For this reason, I am still using 8.0.

Any update with the replacement device? I am having the same sporadic ghost scroll: I'll be scrolling down a page on reddit or slickdeals app (happens with other apps as well), and randomly it'll perform a strong up-scroll...

Replacement device has the same issue, so this is definitely a software bug. Hopefully Google fixes it soon in the next patch update.
Nexus 6P here. I started getting these ghost touches with the last security update. 8.1 is the problem, not a solution.
My mom has the same issue of touch on places she doesn't touch, on Pixel XL.
Could it be the same?
Here is a video about it that I took, just by scrolling in the settings screen:
https://drive.google.com/file/d/1JCsTuMDvMNHh0CO7sF7yoLFT26uNIhUp/
It's a bit hard to reproduce, but it occurs eventually.
Has anyone tried to use Android P, and see if it helps?

I know this is old, but I wanted to know if anyone found a fix for this. I eventually found an Oreo 8.1 Rom that I like and this is the only issue that's bothering me.
