Different type of g-sensor

I understand that some newer builds of the HD2 have a different type of g-sensor. I have x4 HD2's. 3 are working perfectly with HyperDroid CM7 cheerful cheetah. The forth is used by my company co-director which I recently tried to move over to the HyperDroid CM7 cheerful cheetah from WM6.5. This is when I came across the problem. Very annoying. The fact is that this device went back to HTC to repair/replace a cracked screen (I dropped the device last June). I suspect they gave me a reconditioned or replacement unit with the "updated" sensor.

Please advise me if there are any new developments. I can confirm that the HD2 (with the working g-sensor) has incredible battery life and is only my no.2 device because of the 8mp camera on the DesireHD.

Regards,

Jay

Hi Jay, I've got a similar problem.

Actually, I've got (or had) an EU model, and my screen cracked, so it has been out for repair. So both descriptions in this post (yours and Auralol's) fit my problem. I have been looking for a fix for a while now, did you find anything?

I would love it to work, it really is the only thing that doesn't. If this is fixed, my HD2 would be perfect and irreplaceable.

If you find anything that helps, keep me posted?

Kind regards,

Bas

Hey Bas,

I contacted vfuk & simply said that there was a problem with the g-sensor on my HD2... The helpful telephone attendant asked me to remove the battery, memory and sim cards and a replacement device would be with me the next day. The following day the courier took the troubled HD2 and handed me a new Desire HD albeit without the antenna and battery covers. I have a spare battery and ordered the covers from expansys.

I did explain to vfuk what happened - they said I wasn't to worry.

At the time of writing I now have x4 dhd's and a working HD2 with HyperDroid which I am going to give to a pal to lure him away from Nokia...

I now have no way of helping you further. Sorry bout that.

Best,

Jay

Heyy Jay,

Thanks for the reply. So, you kind of worked around the issue ;) Sounds like great customer service. Too bad my provider does not work like that.

Just being curious if you had the same problem as I am facing now, did you try to retrieve / read data from the sensor (i.e. with "sensor debug")? I tried yesterday, didn't get any data at all. Probably means Android doesn't see the sensor, or it is indeed a different sensor and therefore needs other drivers.

I just downloaded some e-books about android and java, just to see how it works with hardware. Maybe it is possible to implement my 'own' drivers in a ROM to make sure the sensor can be detected at least. I guess it is going to be my pet project to find a solution, and when I do, I'll probably try to get it posted on xda. But then again, my programming skills are minimal at this point (just some Basic, html and Step 7), so it might take me a while... ;)

Anyway, thanks for the reply. Too bad your solution does not work for me (I would not mind that either).

Kind regards,

Bas

Hi,

I'm having the same issue as you and was wondering if you had made any progress or if there is anything I could help you with although my programming knowledge is probably more limited than yours. Anyway this issue seriously needs to be looked at! :'(

Still no fix?

Hello, I know it is old thread, but I see there are more people than only me having this issue. Same thing happens to me. Accelerometer isnt working on Android, but it works great on WinMo. I tried a lot of ROMs, "fixes", but nothing helped at all. I used apps like Sensor debug, and sensor list, seems that they dont see my g sensor at all, like someone said before. As I know, g sensor is connected with bma150_usr file, but I used my Root Explorer to search for that file and there is no such a file at all. Shouldnt it come to my device with other ROM files? Yes, I tried to put it where it should be, but the same s**t again... Is there anyone who solved this thing? Because I dont see any solutions mentioned in the whole xda forum.

Looking forward for answers which REALLY helps.

Hi,

I have this same problem, My g-sensor didin't work on AMeriCan Android.

I was reading a topic http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=902129, and my question for this: How I can delete files
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] justin0679@gmail.com:
It is a while since I looked at this... I recall trying everything that has been suggested in this forum and had no success... The HD2 does run Android very well as I have had x2 devices doing exactly that - however a third device that had been sent to Vodafone to have a screen repaired, the g-sensor just would not work...

Sorry I can be of further assistance.

whats so special (or unspecial) about having a sprint id? i mean i've read about but will it be mandatory for our phones? also i already have 2.2.1when they first sent it out...well i downloaded it via samsung's website with the sd card/update.zip file and its working great for me-no issues at all. i'm also rooted with the One click root and recovery for the epic 4g V2.55 with clockworkmod redirector that i got from this site. will i get this update pushed to my phone and if i do will i have to update?? i had great luck and success with this version of froyo and well if its not broken dont fix it. i might download and save it to my comp just in case it gets really good reviews then i'll put it on my phone. any thoughts, ideas, and/ or suggestions?
[Epic 4G General] T-980:
If I understand correctly, as long as you have the official rom from Samsung, regardless of rooting, you should still be able to receive official updates, although those are few and far in between, lol. I'm not expert but if I'm wrong, someone please correct me :D

As far as Sprint ID goes and all of that other jazz, I like having all that crap out of my phone. After reading about the Carrier IQ buried within the phone, I don't trust any sort of Sprint stuff in my phone, especially if it's draining my battery just being idle and hidden.

So...as your question goes, I have no idea, I just wanted to give you my 2 cents on stuff :cool:
[Epic 4G General] DiGi760:
Sprint ID is just a way for them to bundle apps together. It seems like an okay idea for new android users, but I pretty much know what apps I will and won't use and don't really want them to add extra junk I don't need.
[Epic 4G General] MBM7881:
will i have to use it? i want to customize my phone my way not sprints ideas of what my phone should look like. if it installs fine but i wont use it
[Epic 4G General] BeerChameleon:
no u dont,

in fact you can delete it the system apk if you are rooted or use a custom rom which im sure the will all have it removed..

will i still be able to use the one click root that i've been using on this new update? sorry for the questions i'm just trying to soak in the info. also will there be an option for a manual update with the sd card or will it be just OTA??
[Epic 4G General] Top Nurse:
Assuming you are rooted, simply open up Root Explorer and navigate to the following folder:

system/app

Locate the file called W_Installer.apk and either delete it or rename it. This puts Sprint ID where it properly beongs, in the **** can. Make sure you do this before you click on the Sprint ID icon or all bets are off.

If you clicked the ID icon then you have an opportunity to get up close with your OS because it will be a royal PITA to ditch ID after the fact. Alternatively you should consider ODIN to stock and start over again (recommended).

Having played around with ID you might like it if your a total noob about android apps. Make sure you really read the licensing agreement! BTW, once you click on the ID icon you are committed to either take a basic ID or one of the other more specialized ID's. There is no other option once you click the installer icon!
[Epic 4G General] piscesjoey:
Should still work, but no guarantee since we don't have it to try yet. Best bet is to wait a short period of time after the release of EC05 for a dev to add root access to the stock ROM, then you can just ODIN without any issues or fear that you will lose root and not gain it back easily =)

[Epic 4G General] MBM7881:
i do have a question about unrooting. i'm rooted with the One click root and recovery for the epic 4g V2.55 with clockworkmod redirector. i was researching/ reading that i can still receive ota updates if i've never installed any roms, kernals, etc and if i never deleted any bloatware. is this true? the only thing i did was root my phone to basically get shootme to work (sad but true...i heart that app). i've left everything else as is. now i am on the once official release of froyo but i got it via samsung's website and used the sd card/ update.zip file method. sprint told me that i could still receive the ota of the new froyo even though i have the "un"official version they released. what i didn't tell them was that i rooted my phone. so that's my question...can i still get the ota if i'm rooted? also if we are able to update to the EC05 froyo can i use the sd card/ update.zip file method again? do i have to delete any file or files from my sd card ie. the EB13 zip file and the clock work mod file that was created on my card when i rooted? thanks for all the help!
[Epic 4G General] buddickman:
sprint id will allow us to be like the borg until google android 3.x for phones arrive. that 3.x version will outlaw all custom interfaces so that their will be a common user interface. a common user interface will be awesome. imagine using any android 3.x phone and the experience is the same. I am suprised that sprint has not done this with htc, but htc has their own interface for windows mobile 6.x and android....

i cant wait for htc to run i-os device. i think that apple should license i-os and mac os to others... more money in it....

I have a little problem. I love the opera mobile browser....but each time when I am browsing and decided to switch to another application on my vibrant, for e.g messages, yahoo messenger e.t.c. when I try returning back to opera mobile to continue from where I stopped using the task manager it just open opera mobile afresh with all the tabs I was reading gone. does any one know the solution to this?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Phrack:
A little more info like which rom you are running would help..

Opera Mobile 10 should let you resume unless you closed it.

On stock elcair.ji6 and stock froyo.ka6 the task manager is not for switching from one running app to another but to killing tasks.

Long press home and select which recent app you want to switch to, I just tried it with Opera Mobile and it works. Don't use Task Manager, it won't switch just closes apps.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cowppl:
I have the same/simmilar problem. If I press home, and return to Opera, my pages are still there, but if I get a call, and return to it after the call, my pages are gone. Even if I minimize it and make an outgoing call, the pages dissapear. Its really irritating.

Try an app called One More Clock. Basically has TONS of clock widgets and the developer opened it up for people to keep adding to it.

I think the free version allows all the clocks and the paid version just gives more customizations.

This was happening to me, too. After installing Windows Phone Developer Tools, the problem went away. The issue was that my PC's registry hadn't been modified. This key has to be in your PC registry:

[Legend General] sal_911:
Alright so, I wanted to use an app called ANIMMOD - ROOT, basically it changes the animations of the slide, however it needs busybox to run, so I went to market and installed "BusyBox" i beleive its an installer...I ran the app and it says make sure i have Nand Unlocked and R/W access, i did a google search to find out if i was unlocked and apparently im not because in hboot it says S-ON...

Now my question is how do i nand unlock? what is it? and whats R/W access??:confused:
[Legend General] segphault:
"NAND" probably refers to S-ON (inside the bootloader), which refers to messing about with the core of the system. The opposite is obviously S-OFF. In order to S-OFF your legend (which will also give you R/W access to /system, which is what the app requires), you need to flash a custom HBOOT from alpharev.nl. However, the img's at alpharev.nl don't support any HBOOTs from 1.00 and below, if I recall correctly.

BE ADVISED; if something goes wrong with flashing the custom HBOOT, you will 100% brick your phone without any chance of recovery unless you've got a JTAG or other similar device.

In my opinion it isn't really worth it, as the potential risks outweigh the gains.
[Legend General] sal_911:
Yeah its not worth it! Thanks for the reply! Much appreciated :)
[Legend General] segphault:
No problem. Hope the forums are treating you well. Stick around and read up on stuff if that kind of thing interests you. :)
[Legend General] segphault:
Oh, I nearly forgot.

Unless I'm grossly misinformed you can kind of write to /system using blay0's /system overlay. Search the forums for it.

I've not used it so I can't make any promises that it will work for you, but blay0 definitely knows what he's doing, so I trust him.
