Hi. I bought a second hand Nexus S on internet but the sensors seem broken.
Gyroscope, accelerometer and magnetic sensor do not report data.
I haven't solved after several wipe and a lot of rom. Is it an hardware problem? rolleyes
The seller says that is a software problem
is there anyway to calibrate the proximity sensor on the sensation, not 100% sure thats my problem but worth a try if poss

Would like to know this as well.Proximity and light sensors not working properly on my Sensation (only occasionally).
I'd like to know how to recalibrate / get it functioning again.
Yes,i like to know that to.
Still having problems with both proximity and light sensors...
The proximity and light sensors cannot be calibrated, as they put off specific amounts of voltages based on results from the input. It is up to the ROM/Kernel to interpret the voltages from the sensors as usable values to produced the desired results. If you wish, you can download a testing program such as AndroSensor to view the interpreted sensor readings.

I have bought a android smartphone a few months ago. Its name is Aqua Wonder and its vendor is Intex. It is made in China and it runs on Android 4.1 Jelly Bean. All the sensors in this phone is working fine except the magnetic or compass sensor. I have tried a app called Android Sensor Box to view the available sensors in my phone and it said that I have Magnetic Sensor but when I opened it, it is stuck at 0 microTesla. I have also tried other apps but still the same problem. I am very sad about it . Please someone help me! It is frozen at 0 microTesla. Please don't suggest me to root my device or to try any risky harmful things.
My phone's magnetic sensor's name is AKM8975 3-axis magnetic field sensor and its vendor is Aichi Steel.
I have seen that many problems are solved in XDA-Developers, that's why I registered here to ask for help. Please don't disappoint me!

I was wounding if someone here could tell why Proximity sensor only works at night?
Thanks in advance

Has no one ever seen this?
Kernel settings probably or sensor problem.
But you better try another compatible with your ROM kernel or search how to edit it's settings.

I used several different roms and this is always the case.
The proximity and light sensor are different. The intensity sensor sure has more sensitivity at night, but the proximity sensor has its own IR. It will work just well in both day and night.
If you have this problem on all ROMs, you might have a hardware issue. Try updating your firmware.
Happy to help.

I'm running 3.33 firmware and this happens on all roms, not sure why but light and proximity stop working at same time and they both start working when room is dark.
Hello everyone,
I bought some days ago a second hand galaxy S6 (G920F), I checked if everything was working and then updated to official Marshmallow, installed TWRP 3.0, and finally moved to a custom ROM (Pure Stock ExtraLite Rom 4.1).
The problem is that I figured out I had a lot of sensors that were not working anymore like light sensor, gyroscope sensor (so also accelerometer etc...), the heart rate sensor seems only partially working, I didn't try the proximity sensor yet. Here is a screen of the sensor page after a *#0*#:
I already tried to clear cache, wipe everything with clean install, flash back official MM rom, tried to make a calibration using GPS status and toolbox (which shows there is a problem with almost every sensor), but absolutely nothing worked.
Right now I am out of clues and I need your help !
Thank you!
So were the sensors working when you got the device?
My S6 Edge had the same issue - all sensors would stop working (and the IR blaster) for a few days/weeks and then eventually they would work for a while again. In the end though, they stopped working completely. I also tried absolutely everything software related first but it turned out to be a fault with the mainboard. I sent it to Samsung who claimed it was caused by liquid damage and refused to repair it (I'm almost certain it wasn't liquid damage because I haven't got it wet) so ended up claiming on my insurance.
Sadly I didn't take the time to check the sensors before upgrading, so I have absolutely no idea about the sensors before I updated the system...
I saw some people talking about this kind of problems being liquid damage related, but I have no idea what happened to the phone before I got it...).
I hope I will be luckier than you were !
my sensors were working fine in 5.0 and then i officially upgrade my s6 to 6.0.1 and eventually all sensors died.
i make a factory reset and everything fine now
