[Q]g-sensor freezes - HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera

Hello
Im having a problem regarding screen rotation in my android
I am using [DL DesireZ v3.4] NAND rom
Just after I flashed it, it worked really fine for me, but then I decided to calibrate g sensor what was my mistake since now it freezes and doesnt work the way I want it to work, when put the phone at the landscape mode I have to move like 10 times in various directions to make it work
Is there any possibility to fix it?
#edit
I calibrated it on a flat surface, nothing was wrong I guess..

G-sensor was a problem with Android on sd.
Never heard of any fix though, try reinstalling the rom, i guess MAGLDR does still work right?
-T
edit
So is it fixed now? Otherwise you could try calibrate with the screen facing down.

no its not fine, I just wrote it to prevent questions like
DID YOU PUT YOUR HD2 ON A FLAT SURFACE WHILE CALIBRATING?
I tried with screen facing the floor but no change
and what I dont want to do is reinstalling the system
#edit
ok, its fixed by itself
I dont get this phone.
thanks for your time

[HELP] Touchscreen not working!

Touchscreen dead!!!
I was working normally with an android build (cedesmith desire HD) making a phone call; when i finished the screen was normally locked; i tried to unlock but the screen didn't respond however the buttons did respond.
Since i couldn't access the menu to make a reboot i removed the battery to relaunch windows than the build and i was shocked when i found that the touchscreen is no more working in Windows also!!!
I had bad signs before of that, because the screen did freeze completely in the morning (but with buttons working) so i restarted and everything worked well!
I tried to:
-restart many times that didn't work
-removed both sim card and SDcard to see if they are the problem but they weren't
-removed battery for 3 hrs and then reinserted it and that didn't work after reboot
-wiped the windows data (complete format Volume up+Volume down+power buttons)
ALL of that and the touchscreen is not responding!
Any help please!?! Could the build have had damaged the touchscreen somehow?! Coz i am so delicate to the phone and it didn't fall or anything similar!
HELP PLEASE!!!
Try doing a task29 then install either a different WM rom or original rom and see if that fixes it.

Can i do a task 29 without the need to use the phone?! (sorry but i ever did it before; i will be reading a bit )
over heating problem
the same has happened to me on 3 phones all u can tell you that there is no fix unless you change the digitazer..when running android in some builds the phone heats up n that can bring this kind of problems. i used to download big files (ROMS) using the phone while charging...the phone at times was warm, but many times it got very hot. my advice send the phone to repair, but first make it stock.
This happened to me about a week ago. Had to have it replaced. There is no other way.
This happened to me as well, but I had my phone undervolted and underclocked. So it isn't just the heat produced when running Android.
Could everyone to whom this has happened please report 2 things in this thread, so that we can determine if Android really is causing long-term damage to our phones:
- What the symptoms were
- Whether or not you were overclocking your phone

-The symtoms were:
-The screen froze twice in android, so i had to remove battery and it went all good until it froze finally
-No overclocking, no underclocking... nothing, just the default config with the default kernel
However i am pretty sure that it's not the screen itself that is faulted! It's something that powers the screen, maybe a sensor or i dunno what! That is because:
-from every 10 restarts that i perform the screen works once and perfectly normal and smooth even with just a slight fingertip!
-no good reason that the screen itself goes bad: it didn't fall, it didn't get water or anything, i didn't twist it or push hard, it didn't got hot (at least as far as batstat apk shows)...
What could it be!?!? that's the question....
Besides i have no warranty, and one store said it would replace the screen for 85$ (others said 100 and 150!!)
i had same problem , its not hardware fault OR software , it seems like a driver command bug , i dunno , im not a technician , but odly the touch interface will work 1% of the time , to make it awaken more easy is to hold the volume up button while pressing a hardware key when the screen is OFF , this seems to tell the phone to use the touch drivers , i dunno why but it works for me , personally i blanme the cold weather for causing some kind of hardware/driverr bug

Touch screen inaccurate

Do you guys also have problems about when typing in a keyboard that 40% of the time it misses the touch point or pushing the wrong letter even thou you didnt pressed that letter?.. it always happening to me, i just tested this on CM7 and CM6.2..
When i tap "M" sometimes it taps the letter "B", sometimes when i tap the "Backspace" it sometimes presses the button around it like "M" or "L"..
Is this a hardware failure? or a kernel/driver/software for android that is failing?..
One more thing, if i hold an icon on the homescreen to allowing moving it, it sometimes dances around my finger..
I've had similar behaviour when one or more fingers almost touched the screen while holding it. Lay your phone on a table and check if it happens then too.
I think it's still the same, because will i'm testing it, im continously pressing the the letter "M" til it miss, then suddenly it misses everytime i press "M" i suddenly put the fone on the table while continueing to tap "M", still it misses.. my gosh, i hope its not a hardware failure..
anybody?
up anyone?...
Mine did that right before the touchscreen started to die. Check on it.
how sad, i think my warranty is over.. how much will i cost if i will get this to repair?..
I have the exact same issue.

Another fellow has something similar, but not quite.

If I put Windows Mobile 6 back on the phone, the screen is back to its very accurate state. Android on SDcard works fine too. It's only when I try to use NAND / MAGLDR. Could you try flashing back Windows and testing it? And test an SD build as well?

I just bought this device second hand, dont know the record of this thing if it has really an issue when i bought..
i remember when i got this device to the 1st owner, its in windows mobile 6.5, i tried it from morning to night, i even txted a lot when it is still in 6.5, and i dont remember getting frustrated because of inacuracy.. it just started when i flashed the NAND ROM the night i bought it..
will try to revert back to WM6.5 and Android SD after work..
@FreakyFerret
according to one of the member in the thread you gave, his problem about accuracy has gone because of the kernel he used..
Did you used it? did it solve to you?, or do you have any other motheds that worked for you..
I didn't see anyone fixing the issue by trying a new kernel. But I've used a few different builds with different kernels, and it persists. I'll check the thread again later.

[Q] HD2 Lockscreen & Power Screen problem

Hey guys, sorry for putting of "one-of-these" posts, but I've searched as many forms as I could to no avail regarding this particular problem: my lock-screen and my power/reboot screens are completely unresponsive when brought up. Well actually, the lock-screen will unlock with maybe 10-14 tries (by pressing the power button to turn the screen off and pressing it again to turn the screen on) but even thats kind of wonky.
I've flashed every Android Rom I could get my grimey hands on to see if that would fix the problem, and it doesn't, I've even tried dropping back to WinMo 6.5, nope. Now if I flash WP7, than the lock-screen is responsive, but I'm an Androidian and can't use WP7 for more than maybe 20 seconds.
I'm unsure as to whats causing the problem, at first I thought it may just be a hardware malfunction (as I use my HD2 to watch movies and TV shows quite a bit) but after flashing WP7 and finding that to work well I'm at a loss.
I'm running on Magldr 1.12
SPL-2.08 HSPL 8G
If there is anyone who could help, please do, as I love my HD2 flashed with Android....I'd really hate to have to flash WP7 to use my phone.
Thanks in advance!
I read this somewhere so it might work for you. Turn off auto brightness and screen rotation, it supposedly reduces the wakeup lag.
Huzzah! Thanks a bunch, that little trick helped out!
Nvrmnd, it worked maybe for about 4-5 unlocks and now reverted back to the old problem. Power-off/reboot still doesn't work.
I'm having the same problem.
Like you, I've been flashing many other roms (stocks, 6.5, and androids) and still same problem.
Have you fixed yours yet?
same problem
Same here... Any one able to find out the solution?
This exact problem happened to my phone today

This seems more like a bad digitizer....try to press the power button down (kind a hard) and at the same time try to unlock your phone or touch the screen to see if it reacts to your touches and if it does, you have a bad digitizer because the minute you release the power button you are going to have the same issues again...the digitizer connector goes under the power button and it sometimes breaks causing that issue, you need to replace your digitizer, no way around it, sorry.

[Q] weird screen issue

Sorry for my bad English.
A few days ago, I decided to flash back my touch hd to the stock rom due to the big battery drain and slow performance.
Now my problems are gone and my phone is really fast,
but my screen is acting weird.
It happens mostly when I'm typing an sms, for example: I'm using swype and I want to swype a word that starts with the letter 'd', so I press 'd' and the swype line goes from the a to the d and then follows the path I've swyped.
It even writes a word that starts with an 'a'.
this is just an example, so I can describe what my problem is.
basically my screen thinks that I'm tapping somewhere else on the screen and then knows my actually tap-place.
This is not a bug in swype or sms, it happens everywhere in windows mobile.
It also isn't a screen allignment problem.
does anyone know how to fix this?
so again: it is the stock rom with the stock spl. is this a known issue, or are there any fixes?
thanks,
Artuur
Hmmm interesting...
so this did happen on any other rom you had flashed?
No, only on this stock rom.
I never had it with the stock rom when I had just bought the device, and I didn't had it on the cooked roms.
The problem began when I reflashed from energy rom to the stock rom.
Everything else (phone, wifi, bluetooth, battery...) is just fine.
i had strange issues with my touch screen before.
first i was sure that it came with the installation of mobile icq, so i got rid of it, didn't fix anything, hard reset, everything was fine for a while. then the problem came back, tried different roms, no change....
to cut a long story short, everytime the issue came up, i would panic, align the screen dozens of times and in the end perform a hard reset, just to realize it got me nowhere, until i finally found, that removing the display protector did the trick, apparently, there was a tiny air bubble somewhere on the very edge, that distorted all my inputs to slightly different spots.
since then i run the device without protector and everything is fine. from time to time it will still behave strange but carefully cleaning the display always resolves the issue, sometimes teeny tiny spots of dirt keep the device pressed in one spot and due to the way resistive touch screens work, it would only accept the middle of the 2 virtual press points as input.
so my advice would be:
1. clean your display, really clean it, especially the very edges, there can be something stuck there, practically invisible.
2. make sure, it is not software related, by flashing hspl, then a cooked rom and another radio, in combination with task 29 and hard resets makes sure, everything on your device is replaced.
3. if all that doesn't fix a thing, you might need to think about getting a new digitizer or entire screen.
hmmm. try a hard reset! or try flashing to a custom ROM, then reflashing again?

Samsung Galaxy S4 GT-I9505 Screen stays black after i type my PIN

Hello recently i had an issue with my proximity sensor it was stucked at 0 cm
until it felt down and then worked for a little time but then stopped again
So i decide to dissasembly it and clean the sensors and everything ( i blowed air and used a tooth brush too)
when i assembled everything back i booted on recovery to make a clean install of my rom
everything was going well until i booted the phone and after i typed my PIN code and drag the screen up to unlock it
then suddenly screen goes black and only turned on when someone calls me.
When im pressing the power/lock or home button always playing the lock sound.
Tried everything, i tried to boot the phone without each sensor but always doing the same thing
I tried to disscharge the phone, pulling of the battery and keep power button pressed for 1 minute but again the same thing
The phone is working well in TWRP (touchscreen) , Can someone explain to me what happend?
Also when someone calls me the proximity sensor is working well.
Running Mokee ROM android 6.0 but i tried to recover back to s4's official backup and the cyanogen release 5.1 but also got the same problem
I think its the proximity sensor could it be?
Is something wrong with my post? maybe i wrote too many and no1 reads it ? or no1 have seen this before?
Anyways i need help so much, i cant call anyone i cant read texts i cant do anything and i cant buy another one
It could be a hardware or software issue. Did you try to find a way to completely disable the proximity sensor in the ROM?
Was the phone dropped? Any loose connections in the phone?
Does this happen if you flash ROMs other than Mokee, for example, Cyanogenmod?

No i couldnt find a way to disable the proximity in ROM and no the phone didnt dropped i will check for 100th time if any loose connections exists
but i dont think so, many times i try to unlock it and it doing some wierd thing like vibrating then it shuts down but without showing me anything.
Guys i think i damaged somehow the mainboard but i didnt do something so hard to damage something can i damage something with a tooth brush??

Yea i tried, as i said, the recovery backup from the stock rom, and also the cyanogen release 5.1 i dont remeber i think it was cyanogen 12.1 anyways it does the same thing.
The phone doesnt function properly.
Is there any ROM that it has only the basics calls text etc so i can try ?

No, because the firmware isn't the problem. Your proximity sensor I believe is screwed up, probably from using a toothbrush on it and scratching the sensor. While I'm curious as to where you saw or heard that bit of advice since toothbrushes are abrasive, it's not really relevant.
Replace the proximity sensor.

Yea i thought in the begining that this is the problem but explain me why on call proximity works normal if i take the phone away from my ear screen on and if i get it back screen off simple normal.
Also i tried to boot the phone without the proximity connected on it and again it was doin the same thing and 1 more question does the proximity sensor have the possibility to lock the phone?
I really dont know what is going on propably i have to buy a new one i think
I used a tooth brush cause i didnt have anything else but i didnt put much pressure i just touched it
I must upload a video to show u whats exactly happening because its very stange i cant get to home screen with any way everytime it shuts the screen off
but if i choose to go to settings and get black screen when some1 calls and talk when i end the call it will show me the settings but if i try to get anywhere else i will get again black screen and when
some calls and end again the call it will show me that i was choosed before its so annoying really.
Forgive me for my bad english.
any suggestions?
