Hi! I bought my G1 last month, It was original branded G1. I've rooted it, changed radio, spl, rom to laszlo 5.2. Everything works correctly - without keyboard opening sensor.
I'm not sure if sensor worked before flash.
Of course if sensor doesn't work, screen is rotating by gsensor, and keyboard backlight doesn't turn on, even I press any key. And this is the biggest problem.
I changed Radio, reflashed SPL, reflashed Rom, and changed kernel. It still doesn't work.
Some days ago sensor worked for 3-4 hours, then stop again. it was before i reflashed and changed kernel.
Is there any possibilities to check, if that sensor is working?
I've already wrote some easy script that turning on keyboard backlight all the time, but it blink, when phone is in sleep mode. So it isn't solution of the problem.
If U have any advice, how to check it, it will be great.

Well first of all I love Android, but I have some problems. The first problem I have is the G-Sensor, it used to work, but suddenly it stopped working properly. Now when I want to rotate the screen I have to hold it the way I want it to turn for 20 seconds, is there a solution to this problem?
Now my second and most important problem is calling. I have multiple problems with it. One of them is when I'm being called while the phone is in lockscreen I try answering it but I have to wait ten seconds before it actually answers, mostly the caller is already connected to my voicemail. My second problem is the End Call button when is press it, it says ended but I also have to wait ten seconds before it actually ends the call. Does anyone have the solution to these problems?
For further information, I use Froyostone 3.2. And sorry for my poor English.
Could anyone please help me, sorry for the bump?
Also I notice that my hardware buttons light up randomly.
I also have the same problem. Well at least with the g sensor. Running android 2.2 the problem with my g senor is whenever I flip messages they will not flip back. (along with anything else that does flip) I've done the re-calibration on the phone and this is what happens.. x axis is fine y axis either stays all the way up or goes all the way down. When I start the calibration the y and x axis both go to the middle but after when calibration is done the y axis goes right back up or right back down.
Thanks in advance if any one can help.
The same thing happens to me when I'm trying to calibrate it. Also have you tried holding your device for 10-20 seconds the way you want to turn it? This solves the problem for me, but I would like it to happen a little faster.
I calibrated the G-sensor when I first put on Android, bad mistake, the Bubble just stayed at the top and nothing rotated properly. The Sensor worked fine in WinMo so I guessed I'd screwed it up.
Since read somewhere on here that you shouldn't Calibrate it in Android.
Had to reinstall Android fresh to get it to work again, but its been working fine since.
Was on froyostone 3.1, when I reinstated upgraded to 3.2, all is great

Okay that could be the solution. Do you also know if I need to put a new data image on it. I would like to keep my old one, but I thinks the problem lies there or doesn't it?
You might be able to calibrate your G-sensor in Android. Click the calibrate button and place your phone screen down on a flat surface. For some reason, calibrating only seems to be working when you face your phone screen down. It did the trick for me, fixed the offset and it's working just fine now.

I tried changing the data image from 3.1 to 3.2 but the g-sensor was the same, i just used Titanium Pro to backup the data i wanted to keep and reinstalled.
Try the Phone on its screen re-calibrate as suggested, ive read that may work as Roeltjuh suggested, but that was after i had reinstalled
That seem to do the trick, thank you!
Does anyone have the solution to my other problems? Also I've noticed a new problem, sometimes my WiFi won't turn on till I reboot. In the settings menu it says shutting down WiFi. But its already been shut down, and because of the loading it takes to shut down wifi, I can't turn it back on and my data connection says that it will be turned on when my WiFi is shut down. So I always have to reboot.
Sorry for all the questions, but I believe some of them can be fixed and they're too annoying to ignore. And again sorry for my poor English.
First of all, sorry if this thread is out of place, but I'm not sure where else to turn.
My HD2 worked terrifically with FroyoStone 3.2, Hastarin 7.6 up until last Wednesday (5 days) ago. Then I started to experience, and have not been able to fix, serious TS lag issues.
Symptoms: I hit the unlock button, swipe to unlock, and the touchscreen will be responsive if I KEEP using it...if I pause for up to 3 seconds, the screen is no longer responsive. I have to relock the phone, unlock, and then swipe again to get it to work.
The touchscreen works perfectly fine in Windows Mobile 6.5. (Energy 2361X)
Attempts to fix: I've formatted the SD Card inbetween trying all of the following items-
1) Switch to MDJ ROM with MDJ kernel
2) Switch to Bluetopia ROM (0.5, 0.6 & 0.6.1) with Hastarin 8.0 OR 8.1
3) Switch back to FroyoStone 3.2 with kernel that comes with it
4) Update Radio ROM
5) Update to new Energy WinMo ROM -- after running Task 29 first.
Today, I purchased a new SD Card, loaded it with a clean install of Android, still have issues.
Also tried:
1) Turning off all LED notifications
2) Disabling Auto brightness in WinMo and Android
3) Disabled Screen Auto-Rotate
Honestly, I'm all out of ideas, and I hope someone in the community has a way to help out. I find it so odd that the touchscreen works great right after a "wake-up" as long as I keep it constantly stimulated...then fails to respond if I let it sit for more than three seconds. Is this a polling issue?
All ideas are appreciated. Thank you
UPDATE:
Followed another thread that suggests using the exact same WinMo ROM as the Builder -- matched my ROM with cmylxgo's WinMo ROM (author of Bluetopia) after another Task 29...no fix.
More Information
UPDATE 2:
Also tried 32K clusters and 64K clusters when formatting the card. Problem exists with either size.
There are G-Scripts to disable the G-Sensor and then re-enable it without rebooting.
If you want to jump to the extreme and want to remove all the sensors entirely.
Code:
su
rm -rf /system/lib/hw/*.sensors.so
Terminal
Thanks for your quick reply.
Unfortunately, I'm not the best with working with Linux/Terminal commands -- I tried typing in your code, and it returned that there was no such file/folder as -rf, and then I removed that section, and it said that it could not find the system/...
So obviously, there's something I'm missing, or an error in the syntax, that I cannot debug.
Any help is appreciated.
Are you having any data freezes or are you on an area with poor to no signal? I get really bad system lag when I loose signal while my phone is trying to download. Ppp will freeze and the phone will be unresponsive till reboot. Only way I avoid this is to turn off data if I got into a building I know I will loose connection in.

Updates
Thank you for your reply --
I checked into the disconnects being an issue by enabling Airplane Mode and seeing if I still had the same results, and unfortunately I do. I tried by disabling the Wifi and Mobile network separately, and still same issues.
But, here's an update on the issues:
Installed TYTUNG's NexusHD2-FRG83 V1.6, and this thing is very, very lightweight. Great battery life, great data (went to sleep, woke up, and not only was my phone still on...but I didn't have to reset data to check email...nice). The issues still remain. These are the newest things I've tried:
1) Remove Boxwave screen protector
2) Run from Airplane Mode.
I did however notice something really, really important: when the screen freezes, if I simulate a multi-touch gesture (pinch to zoom, etc), sometimes it wakes up! This is not a guaranteed thing (like 60%), but definitely something to work with.
Also, I noticed that one time that the touchscreen stopped responding, I tried the multitouch, no help...but I stayed on it. Multitouch tapped like crazy for a solid 6 seconds...then tried to shut the screen off -- and that button didn't respond. It was as if I saturated some bus of some sort that it had to clear out before it could finally shut the screen off.
Finally, I've noticed that the screen just needs to shut off for the touchscreen to unfreeze -- not go into a full lock situation. So, if the screen goes black, and I hit the lock key immediately, it'll unfreeze the TS.
Thanks to everyone who is trying to think of an idea!
i seem to be having the same issues as you right after i wake the phone up to unlock it. locking the phone is a habit for me to try and save as much battery as possible and also to not press any buttons while in my pocket.
im running a cyanogen rom and i changed the setting to allow me to unlock the phone by pressing the center windows key. i noticed that when the phone will not allow me to unlock it i can press the menu key and unlock it but i cannot use the touchscreen at all until i relock and unlock.
sometimes i have to do this a few times before the touchscreen comes back. i was thinking it could be my sd card but this started to happen today. i have been using android on my hd2 daily for the past 12 days without any problems. its weird that it started all of a sudden.
so it seems we still dont have a fix for the touchscreen freeze yet, right ?
Same problem here
Hi, I am experiencing the same problem.
Tried few versions of Android, The same problem repeated itself.
So I had to return to WM6.5 - there it works good. Only I have to reset the phone twice a day :-(
Hope someone will find brilliant solution for the sad problem that prevents using Android...
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?
Running android on a few of the HD2s we have at the company, I cant remember which ROM etc i put on it (was a while ago) and i dont have the handset in front of me to check (it's in Singapore)...
We have had a few different problems with them in the past which have usually beenfixed by flashing a fresh ROM (which we like to do every so often just to keep things fresh).
Anyway, the latest problem is this: once a day or a few times a week the screen will go really bright on its own and locks, without the phone being touched or having an app running, the brightness and backlight settings are all normal, the power (lock) button is not touched, and the only way to get the screen back to normal is to remove the battery. None of the buttons work while the screen is like this.
So when its just sitting on a table on its own it will go bright and lock (see photo). Any suggestions? I have not tried flashing it again which will be the next step. I dont think its the ROM as it was working fine for 6 months before this started.
I had a very similar issue a few months ago and for me a clean rom install resolved it, I have no idea what caused it though
Last week, I took my phone off the charger and noticed that the home button was not working. Did multiple reboots, clean wipes and also reinstalled the stock ROM, nothing worked. Did the *#808# fingerprint test and found that the figerprint sensor was not responding which led me to believe this could be a hardware issue. I did not have the time to go to the service center so I turned on the on-screen navigation bar and used it like this for a few days.
Today, I thought I'd try to sort this out one more time before I take it to the service center. The *#808# fingerprint test still showed the sensor not available. Rebooted the phone and turned the on-screen nav bar off. Lo and behold the home key started working. I do not know how this happened, I'm just glad that it did.
Just thought I'll post here so that if anyone has issues they could try this out and it might help someone.
Cheers.:good:
I got the same problem. My OP5 Home button(with fingerprint scanner) stopped working suddenly. It got stock android since purchase. I never tried to root it. It suddenly became unresponsive. Will try to use nav bar for few days. Im getting ghost touches as well. Any Help appreciated.
Hi. I have the same issue on my op3t, looking for idfeas.

Hi. I have the same issue on my op3t, Oxygeos Version 9.05. My home and recents buttons do not work but fingerprint works fine. I turned on the on-screen nav bar and the home and recents buttons don't work there as well. Turning it off didn't solve anything. Any idea? Thanks
Facing exactly the same issue after upgrade to 9.0.5. home and recent buttons are not working, but fingerprint is working fine. Did you resolve this issue by any chance? if yes, please let me know as well how it was resolved. thanks. -ramesh
Try doing a factory reset, but take a backup before doing that.
Sent from my OnePlus 3T using XDA Labs
I am also facing this issue. It started off with a boot loop into the recovery every time i try to start the phone. It stopped after i cleared cache from recovery, but the default launcher doesnt work properly, no notifications in my drawer, and many other issues. the hardware buttons are responding (it lights up when i tap on it) but the OS doesn't do anything with it. I have tried with switching to the soft keys and it behaves the same way as well. the fingerprint scanner and back button works so far.
i'm having this problem too Got a OP3T, i found out a bit of info, it has to do with the screen, i'm still facing this problem so im gonna buy a replacement screen and see how it goes, ive already replaced the earphone jack board that houses most the flex cable connections and i also replaced the speaker, home button, and the usb c flex cable to no avail. what i haven't tried was to replace the battery and the main/sub flex cable inside. i'd really like a fix for this.
go to Settings -> Apps -> All Apps (ie including System apps)
look for com.android.fingerprint... or com.oneplus.fingerprint...
"Force Stop" it. and go to its storage and "Clear Cache" , "Delete Data" .
Now restart the Phone.
Worked for me on OnePlus3T running OxygenOS 9.0.5.
Phone was also on charging through out the procedure .. I doubt if it would have any significance though.
Good Luck.
I could not force stop this app.
MY SOLUTION
this is what it worked for me with OP5
I deactivated fingerprint, reboot to recovery, wipe cache+dalvik, restart (without fingerprint anymore) and it seems to be working just fine again.
I have observed this issue too in my oneplus 3 with oxygen os 9.0.6 and also in previous releases. The only thing that works for me is just to reboot the phone.

Something new? I Have flash Havoc ROM, but problem still exist :/
back button and recent button does not work on mine.
I have to turn on screen navbar..
The home button was not working.. but it started working after i enabled onscreen navbar...
The phone went to frantic vibrate the first time it boot after flashing new rom..
the light can be seen on these 2 non functional h/w key during boot , but then it turn off, then the h/w back and recent key would not function..
I don't even know what happened to this phone...
Guess i'll keep using the onscreen navbar...
