hi guys, did anyone have a problem with your sensor??? via test * # 0 * # (sensors) Inside the test area all sensors are apparently off , iris sensor, light sensor, proximity sensor, heart rate sensor, magnetic sensor, accelerometer sensor and barometer. all the numbers are 0. and I do think the sensor is not broken,but they do not work. My phone is G950FD,
and after updating (about half years ago) all the sensors are borken, what can i do.
Hey, I have the same phone SM-G900FD and my sensors are dead... all of them. It happened a year ago (give or take). One morning I turned it on and first the screen rotation and then every other sensor went dead. I couldn't fix it... My service man said that it was due to the bent motherboard on my phone, but I doubt it since I didn't bent it at all and many other people have the same issue with their S8 plus like you. We now have bootloader U3 and we can't downgrade it to Nougat from Oreo (many have said that this solves the issue). I don't know, you'll just have to live with it like me, 'till you buy a new phone...

On October 23rd I purchased my Galaxy Note 3 (SM-N900W8) Canadian variant from Rogers Wireless and after a couple of weeks using the device I noticed two problems.
1) The proximity sensor was always at proximity value 1.0 (ADC value goes from 331 - 1004)
2) The glass screen popped up a little near the sensor area (glass is not glued properly to the chasis) resulting in a small gap (about 0.3mm). Its big enough for me to put a toothpick between the glass screen and the housing.
Now the proximity sensor works fine as I've tested it using the *#0*# and the values are able to go from 300ish to maxed out at 1004 when entirely covered. So this told me it wasn't a dead sensor. After careful examination I found the screen problem and when I used force to push the glass back into the chasis lo' and behold the prox. sensor is functioning as intended!
I sent the device in for warranty repair once stating specifically the screen and the sensor. They took my phone for 2.5 weeks returned it plagued with the same problem. From what I can see, all they did was flash a new firmware (MJ4). Now I can't even root to change the threshold value for the sensor without tripping knox
Any suggestion on how to proceed? Most importantly I want to solve the screen problem.
If its a hardware problem. .. You should get it replaced. .. Take it back to them and show them what is wrong and tell them they done jack to fix it. Please give me new phone NOW! !

Hello.
I have thought that Le Pro 3 has a hall sensor. If it does. Mine is not working. I have x720 phone. with 19s version. I don't think is original. It has Google Store and not a single chinese sign or bloatware. I think is a vendor rom.
I tried with a lot of magnets and and there is no hall sensor. I ordered a flip case that was supposed to work with that sensor and open/close phone when you open the cover.
I checked the Accessibility/hall sensor option to On but nothing works.
Did anyone checked his phone for hall sensor?
Thanks
Lastest for x720 is 18s...
Mine eui version is 5.8.019s (Stable)
I testet on my device and there is a Hall sensor and its working well.
I am on the s18 on x720
You have test it with a magnet?
I don't know if mine is not working hardware or maybe is the vendor ROM to blame.
I have installed Sensor Test and at the magnetic field it says uncalibrated. I don't know how to fix it
When I aproach a magnet to the phone in sensor test it detect it and it show it works. So I think is the software to blame.
I tried again with cydras rom. And somehow it works sometime. When I try with a magnet, close to the buttons it works but only sometimes. Not allways.
I received the original flip cover and it works. It must have a special magnet or something.
The phone works and close screen when I flip it.
Guyz, I am from Bangalore, India. This is getting very very irritating. My proximity and ambient light sensors, both work very very randomly. Have been testing this for like 3 months and could not figure out any regular pattern behaviour which stops both sensors or make both sensors work.
When this issue started, my Moto X Play was on stock MM 6.0.1. When I visited Moto official service center, they without checking anything, demanded me to change the complete motherboard for this small problem. For reference motherboard costs 75% of the actual phone cost itself!!! :crying: What a pathetic un-professional way from moto service center. They only know to replace motherboards and nothing else.
After this pathetic experience, i decided to root my phone and went with LineageOS 14.1 Nougat 7.1.1.
Everything is great experience with this Nougat, but my both sensors are still working randomly. The original problem still persists!!!
Is anyone facing similar issue?
Please forgive this annoying question, but I recently dropped my K20 (and myself) in seawater in a boating "accident" and, obviously, the phone stoped working immediatelly. Opened it, dryed it, cleaned it with IPA, to no avail.
Then, after 10 days, it came back to life. The only thing not working was the FP sensor. So I bought a new one, but the phone still doesn't recognize it. I remember a problem with some phone in the past that when the FP sensor was replaced, it would not recognize it before resetting some partition or something. Does anyone know anything about it? Maybe the new sensor is busted as well, or the connector from the bottom PCB to the upper one is damaged, I know, but any information would be appreciated.
hello,please help me with a problem, my phone is s8 950f and the phone is water resistant ip68 but, about 1 mout ago I washed it with water, and some sensors is frozen like proximity,compass,iris..... accelerometer and gyroscope and fingerprint are working, the sensors all is detected the brand of sensors is showing up but it is frozen
wath can i do
sorry if my english is bad
