[Q] [i9500] All Sensors stopped working after flashing new ROM

Hi guys,
My Galaxy S4 (i9500) was working properly on Android 4.3 official, then I flash the Indian 4.4.2 (Oficial) and now every sensor and the front facing camera stopped working. All sensors are listes on CPU-Z, but none of them show any activity.. I've flash 2 custom ROMs trying to fix it but no luck after all.
Someone have a clue on what can I do to fix it?

Long story bro, summing it, I just bought this phone used for a real small value, the person who sold me said that this was what happened, he flashed the Indian ROM and things stopped working. When he flashed it there was no oficial Brazilian ROM, thats why he flashed the Indian one. I'm at work and can't flash a original ROM right now since it requires PC connection and I can't connect it at company's PCs. So I wanted to make sure it's really a software problem not hardware, what do you think? All sensors show up at CPU-Z, they're just not working.

1. Only I hope the sensor apps are ticked/actived in settings
2. I think u have to try to flash the brazilian stock rom and we will see. Im thinking this person lied and sold u a faulty S4. But im not there, we will make some tests for verify

Well since I paid a real low price for that, would still worth it even if all these sensors are broken, but since they are reconized by the apps, I think they're working, just need to "configure" them. I'll try flashing this ROM when I get to home, bad thing I still have 12 longs hours before it hehe
But thank you anyways, I'll try that at home and let you know.

[Q] Wifi not turning on, contradicting model number

I recently got a GS4 from China and noticed the WiFi was not turning on... it is going though the notion with "turning on..." displayed on screen and not doing anything else.
After reading around on the internet I saw it maybe a firmware issue. So after doing some research I decide flashing it maybe the best solution to the the problem. After spending like a couple of hours ensuring I got the correct version of the firmware I got everything ready but when I put it in download mode I realized I maybe the wrong one.
(From Phone Info Samsung app)

Sticker under battery says its the I9500...
In download mode I notice that is said that the model of the phone was SGH-I337 the AT&T I9505. Which confused me and made me want to check which firmware to get. The 3rd image doesn't really make sense based on what I have read along with fact that the first image calls the phone the i9500 but the 5th image shows the i9505 qualcomm processor. Also on the 1st image what is "jflteatt" under the device type?
I'm not sure what to do now, any help would be most appreciated.

Sorry to tell you this but you bought an S4 Clone.
From your screenshots its obvious its a clone.
I have an i9500 and the Phone Info screen you uploaded does not exist on my phone.
Sorry again.

Kies recognizes it... I wouldn't have expected it to load up in kies if it was a clone.

That's an app, it's called phone info Samsung, u can find it on google play. Don't rush to conclusions if u are not sure of what u are saying.

How bout you dont jump to conclusions too bud!
I have a mate who bought an "S4" from China, paid $130, and it looked the same but when we compared it against my i9500 it was littered with errors in the device info. The fake also only got EDGE and couldn't pick up 3G or HSPA.
In me saying the OP has probably got a fake I was not trying to belittle him but just make him aware.
Look nicely at the pics, the product is shown as "jflteatt" but its supposed to be a i9500...
jflteatt = the AT&T i9505 not an i9500
"Sticker under the battery says i9500" but device info says jflteatt. I seriously doubt Samsung would have let something like that slip through their Quality Control.
Maybe the OP can post us a pic of his about screen and not some phone info shots from an app available on the Google store.
That would end the debate.
@op sorry for derailing your thread. Have you tried getting into Download mode or Recovery Mode? My mates fake had a chinese recovery.

Which model is this?

Hey guys, need some help... My mother owns an G2, in phone info and on the back it says that it's D802 but when I checked the IMEI number on http://imei.info it says that the phone is D800. How can I know which model is it exactly? Have to know because I'm going to take that phone and use it...
Wouldn't want to brick it since I'm a flashoholic

Tried to look up for the sw update on the LG Firmware site with the IMEI, it sayd "invalid IMEI"...

Nah just check the phone model number in setting -> about. then youre good. I had D802T and i ran imei checked it obviously wrong. It says mine is D800 and is 32Gb version but in fact mine is 16Gb. And yes i take out the cover it says D805. I guess some part could fit on each other.

Just wached some g2 teardown clips on youtube... One of them had all different parts, speaker from d805, motherboard from d800, and the model was d802! The last one I watched was made by a Russian dude, everything was from d802 but when he removed the ribbon, I look at the motherboard, poof! D801! This can be a big problem because if you need to flash your phone with a KDZ, in case you have a different motherboard, you will surely brick your device! This is the moment when I don't know what to do... :-\

Then the answer is obvious. You need to check your motherboard model and that is your reference. If speaker and battery or even backcover from different part i think it no problem though. I just opened again my phone and my phone frame says "D801/803". But until now i just flash rom for D802 variant and everything gone well.

to the experts , is my phone unlocked ?

hii evrybody,
first i can't contact the seller because i buy it from my freind who bought it from another country ... he is a reliable seller and he always buy from him
well the phone was amazing smooth , great camera and all , just like any other galaxy S5
but one time i put my IMEI number into ( imei.info ) and boom the web cite says that this imei is for a Note 4
i cheaked the imei with *#06# and it's the same on the back of the phone
another freind say to me dial *#1234# and if the last 3 numbers from each line are the same that mean that the software isn't edited and it's official
well this is the result ....

If it says G900P in download mode, that's the model you have

well , then why it says that this is g900F on device info
and will i loose sim unlock if i flash it
+
i just notice that i can't find wifi hotspot on settings like any other s5

Have a read through the forums, there are a good few others with the same thing, G900F on device info, the box, the sticker under the battery etc, but in download mode it says a different model, and that is the correct model

Thanks in Advance :good:

From your photo there, it seems to be marked as a D801, which would, of course be the T-Mobile variant of the G2. Going into Settings / General / Hardware shows the model number, but I'm not enough of an expert to know if that is read from the phone's firmware (what you flashed) or the phone's hardware.
There's a Playstore app that says it will give that information:
"My Android app will help you to know the following:
[snipped stuff]
11. Manufacturer and Model number of the device.
So look on the playstore for the app, install & run. Hopefully that reads directly from the hardware.

Thanks for reply but i tried hardware info software like cpu-z and aida64 both saying its D802... because of the firmware which is installed on this hardware via modification or by force.....
The main question is that which twrp run on my G2 and which rom should i install

UPDATE ! I removed to top cover to reveal the board !
I further tear my G2 , removing the top back cover!
There a chip with 801 written on it on the bottom right corner ....
