Sensors not working - Hero, G2 Touch General

Hi, i installed the latest villainrom (12) into my hero, after having aHero for a long while.
Now, the telephone is more resposive, etc, but the sensors are not working anymore.
It doesn't rotate, the compass doesn't work.
I've installed a couple of applications to check the sensors, and all of them find the sensors, but stay initializing and get no data at all.
Gps, wifi, bluetooth, etc, everything works, is only the sensors.
I've tried clearing the information into recovery mode, no luck.
I've reflashed it, tried other images, no luck.
I've tried the solutions into the g1 forum (delete the akmd_set, replace the akmd file) but nothing seems to work.
Any ideas, guys??

No ideas guys?
I tried going back to the old ahero, that used to wrk, but is still not working.
When i open any of the sensor applications, the apps are able to detect them, but they don't get any data (They show 0,0,0 as coordinates or INIT as they are waiting for data)
I was reading that it could be maybe fixed with a sd diagnostic card, but hadn't been able to find the one for the hero.
Any ideas guys??
Please!!!!

Help!!! camera flash not working!!

Please help me, my camera flash not working. i tried streak light and other program (camera app) but nothing.
I have a dell streak 5 and firmware 354.....i tried other firmware but nothing.
what is the problem?
Thanks
on 351, and Camera Flash not working
I have 351 on my Streak, and when taking pictures, the flash won't turn on, even though I have it set to be on. I know the flash is working, since I have Flashlight and the lights work when I use it. Anyone has this issue?
UPDATE:
I pulled out the battery and rebooted, and now my flash is working again, even though I had rebooted before. Weird.
I have had this problem for nearly a year now.
I have sent the phone for repair and my camera unit works in another device but a new one will not work in mine.
Weird!
I have also tried every rom out there and still no LED flash.
Not on camera, video, flashlight apps, dell streak light app.
Nothing!
Does anyone out there in the world have a solution???
I changed the group led but still does not work. I do not know what to do
My flash worked fine until I did a recent factory reset to clear another problem. Now the flash only works when shooting a video clip, but cant access the "on" option when in picture mode.
Camera Flash Fix
Had the same problem with not being able to turn the camera flash to "on". Found this to work:
Settings
applications
manage applications
all
Scroll to CameraEM
Clear data
return to prior screen
Scroll to Camera
Clear data
Return to home screen
You should now be able to turn the flash "on". Hope this works for you
well it didnt work either.. need help
Hi there.
My flash LEDs stopped working too. In every application: cameras, torches, barcode scanners etc.
Every time a LED is in use i can see a very faint, almost invisible flash. Doesn't matter if it supposed to be a flash or continuous light there is always that tiny flash only.
It happened back in a days when I was on 403 Olleh Gingerbred 2.3.3. I thought that changing ROM will help but even now on Cyanogen mod Longhorn 2.9.3 Android 2.3.7 my flash still doesn't work.
May that be a hardware issue?

Accelerometer and gyroscope not working all the time. Only after restart.

Hello,
A while back, I have noticed that my pedometer from S Health is not counting steps, so I restarted the app, but it still wasn't working. Then, I noticed that actually the accelerometer was not working. I have tested it by using #0# code and the accelerometer sensors and the gyroscope sensor have the same number value all the time. At first, I thought it is a hardware issue, but I noticed, that after restarting the phone, the accelerometer is working fine, then in a few minutes, sometimes even hours; it stops working, out of the blue. When this started I was on Lollipop, so I thought it is a Lollipop problem, so I came back to KitKat, but the problem still persists. I have tried factory reset, wiping all the data and cache, two different stock ROMs, and even NAND erase in Odin (I don't even know what that means). The problem is still there, the only thing that solves it is just to restart the phone.

Bluetooth Broken

Can anyone upload the Bluetooth Share apk for the stock 6.0.1 image? My Bluetooth was malfunctioning, I tried doing a couple things, freezing and unfreezing in TiBu, etc., and now it's basically become corrupted. Anyone have something they can share or a place they can point me to snag a version? TIA.
EDIT: Should rename this thread to "Bluetooth is broken." At startup I get the error the Bluetooth share has stopped working. Any attempt to toggle on the BT results in the same error. Things I've tried to resolve the issue:
Clearing cache and Dalvik
Uninstalling the BT system app itself and reinstalling
Restoring from TiBU (which probably ****ed it up in the first place)
Various apps from Play Store that purport to fix these issue (none work because they require BT to be on--I can't actually turn BT on)
Booting into safe mode to see if it was a conflict with a 3rd party app
Nothing works. Same issue over and over, Bluetooth share stopped working.
Any suggestions on how to fix this? I don't want to have to re-flash just for BT, but I really rely on it for car audio as well as my watch.
I also tried restoring the system partition from a recent backup in FlashFire. Still same issue.
This ****ing thing. After repeatedly going through all the different steps outlined in the posts above, I one last time went in, force stopped the app, hit the "more" button, then chose to uninstall updates and return to factory version (which, yes, I had done previously). This time Bluetooth randomly turned on and showed my connected devices. Go figure.
I know now this thread seems pointless, but hopefully someone else runs across this and tries some of the steps that randomly ended up working for me. Thanks for reading. LOL.

Trouble with sensors after the recent update

This is a problem I didn't notice right away. I attribute it to the QF2 update because wife also has an S7 and experiences exactly the same issue.
In a matter of hours after reboot the internal sensors stop working or behave erratically. Sometimes the phone would go to the lowest brightness, the screen will not turn off by the proximity sensors during a conversation. Functions relying on shaking the phone stop working. Some (but for some reason not all) apps don't switch to the landscape mode. I downloaded several sensor testing apps and they confirmed my suspicions. After the reboot everything works, but several hours later sensors start showing random values or "no data".
Does anyone else have the same problem? With two affected phones in my possession it can't be a random fluke.
The phones are not rooted.
I had an issue where the phone no longer responded to "OK Google". Turns out I uninstalled all the updates to the "Google" app and reinstalled them from Google Play and that fixed it. I wasn't sure if it was the OTA for the phone or something else, but the OTA might have jacked something up somewhere. Have you cleared cache and such to see if that fixes it? Otherwise, I'm having no issues with the sensors not working.
Thanks for your suggestion. My phones are set for manual updates. I updated everything and rebooted. The sensors worked fo about 12 hours and stopped. Which cache you recommend to purge? Google app?

Several sensors stopped working

Since a few weeks, several sensors on my phone stopped working without a reason (no upgrade, no change, nothing).
Proximity, light and rotation stopped working.
I tried a full factory reset, including wiping cache, data, ... but no change.
There are several other people with this problem:

I had the rotation problem twice, the first time I fixed it by dropping it upside down to the floor about 5cm and it get fixed, and the second time I dropped it again of 5cm but it did not work, so I dropping about 10cm and nothing, 20cm and then it worked, until now.
