Hey guys, I'm fairly new here, but there's something that keeps bothering me.
On the left side of the LG there's this 3(?) LED lights or something..
Does anyone have a clue on how they work, or if they even work?
Well, they are not LEDs, they are sensors. Two of them are obvious, one is proximity sensor and the other one would be light sensor. Don't have a clue about the third though...
I'm secretly hoping the third to be a notification LED of some sort
Thanks though

- Accelerometer sensor
- Proximity sensor
- Gyro sensor
eh, what?

That makes no sense. The gyro and accelerometer have no need for visual input, hence highly(!) unlikely that they are what you say they are.
i suspect the first 2 from the left are both proximity sensors, it could be to increase reliability.
the 3rd is the light sensor.
The proximity sensor is based on an IR diode and an IR receiver, just "film" your O2X with a camera and you should see the IR LED flashing.
Thank you guys
Still think they should've put a LED in it though.
Hi guys,
is there any relation b/w camera/flash and proximity sensor. My problem is, the proximity sensor stopped working and from then on the camera also stopped working.
Thanks

Hi all im having a problem with my gyro sensor does anyone know where abouts on the board it is. I replaced my rear camera today so just wondering how I would of broke it
HI GUYS
I'm really getting mad with my z1. I replaced my broken lcd and the serviceman used a lcd with lower build quality.
the lcd itself doesnt have any problem but the sensors go crazy and stop working after a while.
dont know what happens that they do so but mostly happens when i get a call or its on dock charger
the accelerometer, gyroscope, proximity sensor, ambient light, compass & etc. .they stop working and its very nerving thing
any way to fix this guys?! please help
Recently bought galaxy m31 and found out that i have to press my phone real hard on my ear to screen to go off during call. I never faced such issue with previous devices. So i searched on google and found *#0*# to check sensor working or not. Sensor is working correctly but there is no fixed place of sensor, seems like whole upper part of touch screen is used as sensor and there is no actual optical proximity sensor inside this phone. It's also clearly written Virtual Proximity sensing. Anyone facing same issue on this device or any other phone which uses this technology and any fix for this?
I have also the same problem. Thanks, at least you dig deeper "virtual proximity sensor".

It doesn't have any separate proximity sensor, rathor the front camera works as a proximity sensor. Try covering the front camera properly.
