[HELP] All Sensors NOT Working after Flashing Lollipop ROMs - ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I flashed Euphoria-OS 1.1 (June-29 build, Lollipop v5.1.1), everything was great except non of the sensors work - accelerometer, orientation, proximity etc. I then downloaded a sensor app and it said "sensors are not present on your device".
The Euphoria Lollipop was a clean flash from PA v4.45 (Kitkat 4.4.4), I wiped everything and did factory reset. Flashed cm12 firmware before I flashed ROM and Gapps to avoid problems. Because I only noticed sensor issue after several hours, I thought it might be caused by an app I installed, went back to the drawing board and did a another clean flash, still no dice. Went on and flashed other Lollipop ROMs like CM12 nightly and XenonHD, still the same problem.
I've now done a Nandroid restore and back to PA Kitkat, all the sensors are working fine. So no hardware issue, definitely Lollipop specific.
Any help would be greatly appreciated, desperately wanting to bring my OPO to lollipop. Maybe I should flash a new radio? not sure if that'd do anything to the sensors :crying:

Haven't ran CM12.1 so I'm not sure if they're having any issues with the sensors but have you tried OxygenOS or CM12S?
I know those 2 lollipop builds by far are the most stablest as I use them as a base for my ROM and all works fine. But to reduce the hassle, you can always stay on kitkat
Side note: Do you have a link for AOSPA KK?

Are you sure, you flashed the latest firmware? What is your baseband version in Settings>about phone?

Okay I finally got it resolved after reading through the thread about non-working proximity sensor. What I did was extracting NON-HLOS.BIN file from firmware and flash it with fastboot. Apparently flashing firmware in TWRP did not update at all, wired.

XT925 - Wifi not working after Custom Rom install (but bluetooth works?)

So I'm new to rooting and flashing custom roms on android devices. This also shows that I'm new because I forgot to make a backup of my stock system before moving forward, hence this problem.
So I currently have CM 10.2 flashed on my phone and so far I can't get the wifi to work. My bluetooth works perfectly fine (I've read that if one fails usually the other should too), so I don't know what to do.
At this point I'm sure i'm stuck because I've flashed a few different roms already to see if i can fix it (10.0, 10.1, 10.2, and hacker's aosp 4.4) but the wifi isn't working in either so I stuck to the rom that had the fewest bugs.
What's weird was that it was working when I had 4.4 flashed, but when i found it too buggy and flashed CM 10.2, now it doesn't work.
Anyone else have this problem? I guess I can live with it for a while until maybe I purchase a new phone.
Thanks

Did you flash 10.2 directly over 4.4 without wiping system data and both caches?

The first time, no. I thought I may have installed 4.4 incorrectly so after installing 10.2 i tried flashing 4.4 again, but I did wipe the caches, system, data and dalvik caches the second time going back after reading in this forum how to flash over a custom rom. But then seeing that the bugs were still there, i wiped again and went back to 10.2 and I've been there for a day now.
Missed Wifi
I'm facing the same trouble , same conditions.

[Q] Anyone succeed with GPS with custom rom

Hi all,
Did anyone able to use gps with custom rom ( I would say CM base). I research and try everything that's I could find here but not success.
Every time I do clean wipe everything including a internal storage. So that will nothing left behind.
I know that stock is work fine with gps. some said that install and replace stock but I have no idea that what file will left in our device when we delete all.
Always had the same problem when running Paranoid Android (not tried other ROMs). Had to return to stock, where GPS runs fine. Would also love to kknow how people have got it functioning.
I am trying too. I modified gps.conf files, tried some workarounds mentioned in cm11 thread like restoring GPS Status backup from stock with titanium so far with no success. Some people say that it works but it doesn't on mine whatever I do.
I run on CM and I don't have any problem. Everything works fine with gps and I didn't use any fix or something similar.
I'm on CM 11-20140627 and I have 1032 phone.
Interesting, why does it work on some while it doesn't on others? Maybe some variants are having problems...
I have xt1033 asia version.

Which recovery did you use?
CWM
As I wonder is about library missing or some partition need from stock ?
I've also been using the micro gapps package, would this matter?
I had problems with Paranoid Android and GPS too... If anyone know something about that, please comment!

I am having he same problem on XT1032 running Carbon ROM. GPS worked fine on stock, no signal with Carbon.
I found many answers saying to flash stock and then reflash custom ROM. I will try it, but I wonder, how does this help? Isn't the phone restoring the whole system? Do I have to keep the gps.conf from stock?
I've read in some CM thread on here you need to flash stock ROM then enable GPS and get a lock. Once you've done that then flash your custom rom. Sounds STUPID and dosent make sense I know, but a lot of people say this is how they got it to work.
EDIT: I can confirm. I've just flashed stock 4.4.4 and played around with google maps. Flashed CM11 nightly and my GPS is now working ok

Did you wipe anything, like Dalvik, Cache and Data, or you just flashed it over?

Sorry people, I was so happy to have my phone back working, I forgot to write it back here.
Yes it worked indeed, all I did was flashing back the stock, going outside to have a gps lock with gmaps, then re-flashing back the Carbon. I also kept a copy of the gps.conf, but I never needed it, the GPS got a fix quickly. Working fine so far, it only takes some tens of seconds to fix, from time to time.
I can't remember if I also did all the wiping, I think I didn't, but I made so many trials in a couple days, I am not sure.
Thanks a lot guys!

Yes, this worked for me too on PA.
I couldn't even see a single sat (it wasn't just a lock problem). No matter with gps patch, gpx fix app, or gps.conf I used.
What I did?: Back to stock, lock GPS, flash again the custom ROM (but don't wipe /system!).
Good luck on that guys, it should work for you too.

GPS works fine on this unofficial CM11 rom for me. Stable daily driver rom for me, YMMV.
General advice is to:
- make sure you get a GPS lock on stock rom first
- flash CM11 (or other custom rom)
There may not be a file left on the device. it may just be that stock contains the code to initialize the GPS functionality on the SoC or chipset firmware. Whatever, it works...

G-Sensor not working

I updated to the new firmware (4.4.4) this weekend. Everything is working great, except the g-sensor seems to be a bit wonky... Often, the screen does not auto-rotate. Also, I use Screeble Pro app to keep the screen on when not laying flat and it consistently thinks the phone is laying flat when it is not (did that make sense?). I've tried the basic calibrate function in the settings, but that did not help. Also, flashed the new firmware with both the RUU. and SD card methods... Even went back to 4.4.3 firmware with no change... Anyone else having this issue? Any ideas? Thanks for the help.

OK, update... The sensor info to Screebl seems to be working, but the auto rotate (can't even force it to landscape) stopped working at all.

Did you flash the firmware via ADB? Did you flash it 2x??
I had an issue with my IR blaster after I updated to 4.4.4. Could have been caused by my not flashing the firmware twice, or because of non-matching firmware/rom.

Flashed it twice... via fastboot RUU method (as well as with the SD card method) I am currently running a 4.4.3 based ROM (ViperOne 2.5). Am hoping that when that ROM gets updated to the 4.4.4 version and I do a clean install maybe the problem will go away...

Oneplus One Proximity sensor problem after reverting to CM11 (WITH CORRECT MODEM)

Hello,
I am facing a weird problem regarding the proximity sensor on all CM11 roms.
I was using lollipop roms for a long time now, and have been following latest builds, until I decided that I liked KitKat more. I already had a backup of temasek's last CM11 build, so I reverted to that one, after flasing the cm11 firmware. All was working perfect until I reverted a backup of my 5.1.1 rom, to try xposed. Again, before doing so, I flashed the latest cm12 firmware. After a couple of days experimenting with xposed, I eventually went back to my kitkat rom. After boot, I noticed that the proximity sensor wasn't working. I had already flashed the cm11 firmware before restoring, but I went and flashed it again. Problem was still there. I then tried cm11s 44s firmware, 05Q firmware and 05Q modem only. The proximity sensor problem was there in all cases. (Shows 0.0cm, like I always have my phone in my ear or pocket). I then tried flashing a complete cm11s rom (05Q) with no success.
This is not a hardware problem, as the sensor is working FINE on ALL lollipop roms. I used sensor box in all my tests. I even tried proximity fix from play store, but it did nothing. I also tried to install it as secondary on multirom, then flash the firmware, but again, no success.
I really really need some help on this one, I can't troubleshoot it on my own, I am out of ideas.
Thanks in advance.
(My device is OnePlus one - always using boeffla kernel on both lollipop and kitkat roms.)
EDIT: Solved. Look at my last post.
Flash again only modem but matching http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-one/general/ref-oneplus-one-modem-collection-t2858734 I had the same problem, flashing again modem solved this issue for me.

Hello,
Which modem did you flash from that thread? I have only tried the 44s from there but it was a no go.
Thanks in advance.
XNPH44S for me it worked
Hello,
Finally found a fix for my problem.
It seems that I had to flash from fastboot the CM11 nightly modem from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=57125376&postcount=389
The process doesn't wipe anything in case anyone is wondering, it just flashes the modem ( NON-HLOS.bin)

CM13 no sim

Hey guys, I just flashed the CM13 nightly from stock 5.0 and now I'm showing no sim card. I saw a couple threads saying that newer twrp builds have issues with flashing radios, so I reverted to twrp 2.8.6 and did a clean flash, with no love. Tried flashing the radio zip, no love. Tried flashing the 3 most recent radios through fastboot, no love.
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated
Are you flashing both the bootloader and radio? If this doesn't work, I suggest flashing the latest stock MM to make sure the phone is working, then flash CM13.
Good call, trying it now
okay, flashed to stock 6.0.1, worked like a champ, flashed back to cm, now it connects to the network, but drops to no service after a second or two. Progress! Now that I know that you have to flash bootloader and radio, i'll try some different combos and see if i can get something to work. If nothing else, i can always go back to stock MM
Thanks!
Have you tried CM13 with a custom kernel? This may solve the issue.
You need to do alot of reading, no insult intended. Don't run b4 you can walk. If you didn't know to flash the radio and bootloader you need to learn alot. Luckily it's a bullet proof phone. Nightlies are not stable and not for daily drivers. They are works in progress and buggy as a result. Not for noobies, IMHO
The OP did flash different radios. It is not always necessary to flash a modem and bootloader to have a working phone.
