[OnePlus 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jackill:
hi there!

I seem to be having quite a similar problem, though, my sensors work, but stop responding after an unspecified period of time (can be anywhere between minutes and hours).

I tried flashing several roms (oreo, nougat) and yesterday i flashed Oreo Pixel Experience (just pure ROM+OP5 camera, no root no custom kernel just to rule out a few things) but the issue remains. Important to mention, i always clean flash.

The best way to describe the issue is: "sometimes the proximity and light sensor just stop working and i dont really know why" which is obviously causing a whole bunch of issues with auto brightness, making calls, picking up when someone calls etc.

The thing is, everything works after a reboot...but only for some time...then the sensors go "offline".

sometimes they work for a couple of hours, even a day...sometimes they die after half an hour or something. I have a feeling that i see them die faster when i have my phone in the pocket and leave it idle for a while, and when i use my phone often and dont really give the phone time to rest they live longer. It almost feels as if the phone goes to some deep sleep when idle for some time, disconnects the sensors, but doesnt turn them on again when woken up.

tried flashing the persist.img as advised just above, but it doesnt seem to have an effect.

anyone has any good idea?

thanks!
[OnePlus 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jackill:
allright, being desperate from not being able to use my phone in a normal way i flashed OOS 3.6.1 from official zip files that can be downloaded from oneplus.net support section, using OP recovery and surprise surprise - sensors are working flawlessly! so im ruling out the HW problem. I think im going to stick to OOS for a while to monitor the sensors and eventually im going to try flashing oreo again.
[OnePlus 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jackill:
ok, last update from my side: after two days on OOS where everything worked fine i flashed Pixel Oreo build and sensors continue working just fine! so, whoever is experiencing strange behavior of his sensors, i recommend the same approach.
[OnePlus 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] flaektrem:
You still have working sensors?

I have exactly the same behavior as you mentioned in your first post. FRUSTRATING!

I've tried flash lineageos 15.1 ROM, no luck. New persist.img from official fastboot oos ROM but no luck either.
[OnePlus 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jackill:
Hi! Yes, my sensors are still working just nicely.
[OnePlus 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] flaektrem:
So good for you ?

Before when your sensors struggled, did they also disappear from any sensor test app. Or did they just not work?

My prox sensor did not disappear but just hangs at 0 or 5cm if I check the value in any sensor app. And light turns 0 Lux also.
[OnePlus 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lazyfarmer:
I've similar problem. Went completely stock as suggested but the problem persisted.
[OnePlus 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jackill:
Well mine didnt really "dissappear" either. They "froze" too. Lux froze at whatever value it measured the last however i am almost certain it was never exactly 0. Prox behaved the same as you describe: 0 or 5.
[OnePlus 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] flaektrem:
Interesting. I'm going to flash OOS recovery and latest OOS ROM later today and give it a try.

My lightsensor always freezes at 0 Lux. And when the prox freeze at 0 its impossible to quit a call. So f*cking frustrating so I have to fix this problem ASAP :mad:
[OnePlus 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ipp33:
I have the same problem with my LUX device, sometimes the sensors work randomly. When I reboot my phone the sensors stop working. The screen does not rotate, the most interesting thing is that it did flash the Moto camera mod and the rotation works perfectly with the camera, with the stock camera there is no rotation.
[OnePlus 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] flaektrem:
UPDATE:

I scheduled a remote session with Oneplus L2 Team and they performed a full factory reset of all partitions. No luck, problems still persist.

It must be a hardware problem.
[OnePlus 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] omeg@one:
In my case I sent the smartphone to them and they said it was a problem with the motherboard.
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Q&A, Help & ] Barst Telefoonreparatie:
Hello,

Today I started repairing a Samsung Galaxy SIII i9300.

The EFS partition was erased by accident, clearing the IMEI code and making it unreadable.

I tried the following:

I read on several forums that this can be fixed by flashing the original stock firmware (4.3 JB) on ODIN but I already ran into a big problem: ODIN can't read the PIT partition table anymore and I can't find a proper working download link for the PIT partition table file I'm looking for which is "GT-I9300_mx_20120220.pit", for the 16 GB version. I already looked on about 20 pages worth of forums and still couldn't find a working link.

I tried using the z3x shell to fix the IMEI code and EFS partition but the z3x box my boss owns is old and isn't supported anymore.

Where can I find a working download link?

Hi, have you seen this post: https://xdaforums.com/galaxy-s3/help/solved-pit-bricked-dead-problem-gt-t2535367

The first post has a rar-file attached, which contains "GT-I9300.pit". I don't know, which version it is though (since you specifically asked for "mx_20120220"), or how they would differ, but you might want to give it a shot.

[Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jxzz:
Our of luck for my Nexus 5x. I called today for the bootloop issue and was told that they only offer free repair for this issue for qualified buyer.

Because I purchased my phone from Ebay 2nd hand, my phone repair cost would be about $72 dollar.

Not worth the money to put into LG. I am not willing to put $72 into a phone that caused headache for me.

What is best option to repair the phone myself? fully understand that my phone could be dead permanently by doing self-repair.

I read that there was a method of putting the phone into a freezer overnight and somehow this "freezing method" can be repaired. There is another

software approach published in an article saying with windows and by buying a USB cable, a software update with window PC can fix the issue.

This phone does not have USB cable, and I have to a buy a cable to fix this thing, damn.

Very confusing, what is safest and best route to cheaply repair this bootloop issue?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] se1988:
Just sharing this as I couldn't find any solution anywhere:

I could not get my S8 to sync some of my contacts from my Google account no matter what I tried. I have 500+ contacts, whereas only 460 synced to my device.

To troubleshoot i did the following:

1) I added the contact manually on my phone. I found that this creates a duplicate at contacts.google.com and on other devices.

2) I figured that these contacts should have something in common that makes the phone refuse to receieve them. And i found it:

All contacts that refused to sync with the S8 had a Google+ profile URL attached to them within the contact info.

Deleting the url (http://www.google.com/profiles/12345678901234567890) from the contact info resulted in instant synchronization with the phone!

Went on and did this manually with all my contacts.

This is obviously a bug in the Samsung S8 and S8+ contacts/account sync software. If this helped, or if you have another solution, I'd be happy to hear about it! (Also, thanks button:))
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] jco23:
i noticed that yesterday as well. I'll try and report back later. good sleuthing!
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] se1988:
I've done some more testing, and I just found that adding someone in Google+ adds their profile URL to contact info every time. Removing the URL doesn't remove the contact from Google+.

If a contact gets a URL, they are removed from the phone instantaneous. Removing the URL returns the contact to the phone.

I suspect the Samsung contact software is in dire need of an update supporting Google+ profile URL.

PROTIP: Search for "Profile" in the search bar on contacts.google.com to filter all contacts with G+ URL attached to them.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] lukas77:

"

BL stands for bootloader

AP represents the system partition (possibly stands for Android partition); under previous Odin versions, this was called "PDA"

CP represents your modem

CSC stands for Consumer Software Customization

Then maybe we need only instal CP file...

Really, we need before install the Nougat stock version for get the Modem of new Base! Now it works!
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] Joeyuy511:
Hi, i recently purchased a single sim note 8 with model n950U. I just want to ask why i have 3 software update options?

When i click the first one it would momentarily say registering device then would say processing failed

The second one would just tell me i have the latest updates.

The third one would say we have a problem authenticating your device.

What should i do, since i am not that knowledgeable in rooting or doing some technical stuff.

[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redpoint73:
I figured there would be apps for that, and I just looked in the Play Store, and there are. I can't advocate any particular one. And with the proliferation of malware on the Play Store, use your best judgment.

Funny, my current daily driver (OnePlus 3T) has a charge sound by default, and someone was asking a few week back how to get rid of it! To each his own, I suppose.
[OnePlus 5T  Questions & Answers] RazzBot:
I was thoroughly unimpressed with the auto brightness on my unit so I kept it off. Every time I tried to use it, it would immediately drop to like 10% brightness in all but the brightest conditions. I consider the stock auto brightness unusable.

After getting tired of manually adjusting it all day I installed lux auto brightness on my phone and started fiddling with it.

It's better now but this isn't a permanent solution as the developer abandoned his app over a year ago. It's causing a few issues allready and apparently it's completely incompatible with Oreo.

While playing with the settings, I noticed that the lux readings were much lower than I expected. I was getting 20 lux in a brightly lit room, 50-75 lux facing the window, etc. Occasionally I would see it jump up to 20,000 lux in direct sunlight but then it would just dip back down to sub 200.

I obviously have some issues with my light sensor and am going to contact OnePlus to RMA my unit. I'm just curious how many more people are affected by this or if it's a fluke.
[OnePlus 5T  Questions & Answers] neocryte:
I also keep auto brightness off. Agree it's unusable, makes the screen very dark.
[OnePlus 5T  Questions & Answers] rickysidhu_:
I thought it was just me. Auto brightness seems to favour the more dim side, it can get very annoying.

I hope when LOS/AOSP ROMs start showing up, they'll be able to fix this as it does seem like more of a software thing
[OnePlus 5T  Questions & Answers] crash4fun:
I actually had the opposite issue where it would get way too bright in a dark room randomly. They really do need to tweak the software around this.
[OnePlus 5T  Questions & Answers] RazzBot:
I just wish there was a good alternative to lux. I used to install it on all my phones and all my friends phones.

[Wing, P4350 General] Trump:
I currently have an MDA with the screen cracked.

I was wondering how much better the wing was than the MDA. I could not find any definite advantages and actually some things that seemed to make it not as good.

1. Does the Wing have a competent flash on its camera?

2. Does the camera actually work decently in clubs or dark areas?

3. Does the wing have any known bugs that i need to look out for?

4. Is the audio port really proprietary?

5. How is the battery life versus an MDA? Can you play music via WMP on speaker for 8 hours and battery still be alive?

I would appreciate any and all answers as I will be deciding within 24 hours on replacing my MDA with a wing or not. Thank you in advance
[Wing, P4350 General] gauntman:
1: No, not even a light.

2: I would say no, in my opinion it´s a pretty useless camera (come to think of it I´ve never had any use for it due to the poor picures it produces).

3: I´m using a p4350 unbranded so I can´t say much about the T-Mobile roms but the HTC stock rom I found very stable but using much memory and using up storage, therefore I´m currently using a custom rom (OpenTouch3)

4: Not sure what you mean by this due to the fact that english is not my native language but the audioport and usb connection share the same port. There are adapters that separates it to one usb and one 3,5 headphone plug.

5: I´ve never tried that but I can run TomTom Navigator with bluetooth on and screen at maximum brightness for about 5 hours. Playing mp3 on my headphones with Pocketmusic and screen off about 4 hours of playing drains the battery to 65%.
[Wing, P4350 General] Trump:

I want to know is possible to flash official miui fastboot update after unlocking bootloader on redmi 4 ?? And after flashed fastboot update is bootloader will be locked again ??
[Xiaomi Redmi 4X Questions & Answers] LonerDarke:
Yeah, you can flash official miui with fastboot. MI flash app have an option to re-lock the bootloader or simply flash the rom without touch anything. You can see this option at the bottom right of the program

Also can happen that you flash the rom and accidentally lock the bootloader, because this option is marked by default. In this case you only need to unlock the bootloader again with Xiaomi's program, don't need to wait 72 hours. This already happened to me.

With locked bootloader I prefers xiaomitool for upgrading or downgrading any miui rom.
