I need some help, I really don't know what to do anymore..
I've installed the optimized cyanogenmod 13 and now my sensors don't work. It works randomly for about 10-20 minutes then stops. The only sensor that works without any problem is the light one..
I don't know what can I do. Can this be from hardware, even working sometimes?
All the sensors are recognized by phone, they just don't work.
I've already jumped into a lot of ROMs and nothing. I've already done a full wipe (system, data, caches, internal) and installed official stock ROM and nothing.
Now I'm on lollipop 9.0 and I can't get this to work even for 10 minutes, but I know that on other rom it will work for about 10 minutes.
What can I do?
Did you install the latest official stock or just any stock rom with Odin?

I don't know if has anything to do, but if you have a s4 with root, can you please verify if in your folder "persist" have anything? It stays right in the root.
Thanks!
Weird that stock didn't fix the issue. You also performed a factory wipe from stock recovery before booting the newly-flashed ROM for the first time?
Sorry, I don't have an s4 with me at the moment. I can check later today.

Do you mean the recovery that comes with stock rom? I never used him. My wipes I always do from TWRP
I really don't know what else I can do. I don't want to change de motherboard :/.. I still think that is from software
You should try wiping with stock recovery.

Install the stock rom again, then turn off phone, power+volume up+home and do a wipe data/cache factory reset? Is this different from the TWRP wipe?
Maybe I can do this wipe via settings on the system?
On lollirom 9.0 I can't get them working even for 10 minutes
Sometimes, a wipe using stock recovery works better than a wipe using a custom recovery.
Flash with Odin and use stock recovery to wipe before booting the stock ROM for the first time.

Ok.. I'll try to do this and I post the result here. This not working, there's anything else I can do?
Not sure what else to try as flashing stock and wiping with stock recovery usually fixes software glitches.

Again, only light sensor working.. anything else?
The sensorhub test gives me PASS.
Everything was working before flashing cm13?

Yes, perfectly. Never had this issues before optimized cyanogenmod 13 :/. That's why I think its from software, but I have no idea what to do anymore..
I am at a loss too. The phone shows the correct imei, baseband, and bootloader?

Yes. The phone is 100% ok, just the sensors not working.. Now even for 10 minutes is working :/, just the light sensor
Anything else I can do? :/
Dont know if a logcat can help, but..
I just started the phone and searched for "gyro"
As you can see, gyro_sensor was not found.. Maybe we got something here?????
--edit--------
Searching now I found that this is something about .idc files, right in /system/usr/idc. I just don't know what file.. @audit13
How about flashing a custom rom that is based on the original stock rom?

On flashing a Custom Rom, my phone gets stucked with continous FC ("Unfortunately Phone Crashed","Press OK") just after the phone boots.
I had faced the same problem earlier so someone on XDA suggested to use twrp recovery. Then i flashed the purity rom and it worked fine, but then as you may know now, as PA is out, so flashed it and again i'm getting continuous fc error....
currently i'm using purity rom, stock kernel and twrp recovery (2.6.3.3)
I would flash back to a stock 4.2.2 and start over. I find that this is the only way I can install certain roms.

Strange. Are you updating the bootloader and radio before flashing a 4.4 rom?
Are you doing a factory reset???? And flashing a proper gapps after ROM? You should always do this when going from one ROM to another. Sometimes a manual format of /system is necessary also.
no i am not updating my bootloader and radio before flashing (rather didn't know if i had to update them,fyi i bought my nexus 4 this september)....and yes i'm doing a factory reset (using the wipe option in twrp recovery which warns clearing of data, cache and dalvik memory)
Just recently rooted my s4, was working fine or so I thought, went to flash NamelessROM, I don't think the rom is the issue, I had my s2 rooted and flashed on a weekly basis so I know about wiping, data cache, and dalvik, I flashed Rom then Gapps, and it was stuck on boot up, of course I made a nandroid and restored, but now I'm stuck on the yellow sprint screen, did my research and found it it's called a Yellow Brick, or referred to as. Found out a possible fix was downloading the kernel so I've chosen the Rooted NoData kernel to download and flash via odin. Is this what I should do or is there a better fix out there?
Sounds like you wiped everything. Can you boot into recovery?

Yes I can, and I tried to restore back from my nandroid which is how I'm stuck on yellow sprint screen now versus stuck on the boot for NamelessROM.
Do a factory reset in recovery and see if it boots.
That will wipe your accounts and what not but you can't boot anyway.
If it won't boot then you'll need to flash a ROM to get running. Do you still have the ROM you wish to flash on your SD card or internal storage?

Just got me stuck on NamelessROM boot up so I'm restoring off nandroid again. I think that flashing the kernel will fix it.
I'd get the ROM booting then play with the kernel. That's just me though.

I'm trying to push a kernel through odin, I could possible try to find a way to put a kernel on my extsd and try and flash it through twrp? Would I just have to wipe cache and dalvik and flash? because when I try through odin it fails.
EDIT: I found a fix it involves unrooting most likely, but if I do I'll be back at VPUAMDC (Android 4.2.2) so could I still root with SafeRoot? Or what would be the way to root from that version?
Which firmware version did you root from? If it was MJA or MK2 you have to use one of those, you can't downgrade to MDC easily.
My battery life has took a serious turn for the worse every since experimenting with a few different kernels, I'd really like to go back to stock 4.3 n9005 kernel. I did factory reset, but as suspected that didn't return the kernel.
Please help.

Have you tried booting into recovery and clearing data. Do you have a backup? I don't no Twrp verywell as use cwm but I think its under wipe.

If boot loop happen after u flash the kernel than u flashed the wrong 1. Need to match with the firmware u're using. Try other custom kernel for 4.3. If u really planning to flash the whole rom then there is no need for custom kernel
Hi I hope you can help me with this,
I was on a custom 4.3 rom running on old bootloader. I then
updated to 4.4.2 rom but my camera is not working only a black screen and giving
me a warning message " Camera failed" and once that happens
the whole system lags. I've read around that it could be a hardware
problem but when I switched back to the 4.3 rom the camera is working
smoothly again. I have tried 3 different 4.4.2 custom roms but same issue persists.
My question is could this have anything to do with my bootloader? I am planning
on flashing a stock 4.4.2 firmware with the new bootloader to see if that helps but what
worries me is if this doesn't help then I have no way anymore to go back to
a 4.3 firmware where my camera still works. Can you help me point to a solution
to this problem? Or which stock firmware I should flash to test if my camera
will work on that firmware.
Did you fully wipe before flashing?

Yes full wiped in Aroma, Formatted Int/ext card from Philz recovery, restored factory
from rom didn't help either.
What custom rom did you flash? Do you use the correct modem for the old bootloader?

I have tried Phoenix ROM, GoldenEYE , ECHO ROM, I am not sure if
I am using the right modem though I just flashed the file suggested on this page.
I'm on the Phoenix rom and it's running stable for me. I am also running on the old bootloader.
I had troubles at first after upgrading to 4.4.2, but after I wiped /system in recovery, everything worked.
You could try it. Make sure to backup /efs to your external sd or pc. Backup your entire internal sdcard, because it will be wiped. I didn't know that, so I lost everything on my sd
Perform a full wipe. Then wipe /system from the recovery (i used clockwork recovery). After that just flash and don't install any tweaks in aroma.
I got a problem. I am on Omega V25 all is working fine. Tried to flash later Versions. First the Modem NC9 needed more than one flash.
Any later versions of Omega boots.
But the prozess phone stopps every time.
Now i flashed original Firmware and after it V32. Same problem again.
Is there any way to flash without full wipe?
Edit: Tried new modem
tried Philz and twrp recovery
Rule number one:
Always fully wipe if you got problems after flashing updates/new versions.
You know what to do. Wipe!
