[HELP] CWM recovery and sensors not working - Galaxy Ace S5830 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So, I accidentally bricked my phone.
Then I flashing stock firmware, after the ODIN says PASS, I reboot my phone and anything is fine.
But, I realized there's something wrong: it won't let me boot into CWM recovery (always stuck in the Ace GT-S5830 logo with a green triangle on it's edge). But, that's not real the problem, the problem is my sensors doesn't working. How I know it's not working?
1. When I make a call, the screen doesn't off automatically (proximity)
2. The 'shake' feature in WeChat doesn't work (accerelometer?)
3. The compass seems to doesn't work too...
Can you please help me fix it?
I consider making a little donation for those who solved my problem.
P.S.: If you need any information, just ask me. Also, there is no service center in my town, so don't ask me to go to service center. Thank in advance

well.. you are sure your sensors doesn't work, if your sensors are broken don't think you can fix them via internet :S you should send you device to the support service, I advised you test whether your sensors worked, because in certain roms that I've tried didn't work, that's all...

Home button not working??

Hey guys! I hope you can help me D:
My Galaxy S:
CM7 latest update #57 or so
Kernel: glitch v11 (also doesnt work with standard kernel)
Since today my homebutton isnt working correctly. It only works for getting into recovery and into download mode.
If i press it in the keytest in cwm recovery it isnt recognized, same when the phone is booted :-S
I reflashed the update with deleting the cache but that doesnt work D-:
Have you guys any idea? :-/
Thanks
Mario (sorry for my bad english *facepalm* ^^)

Does it work when the phone is booted normally?
No it doesnt.....
Should i send it to samsung? :-/
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App
I'm sorry, but I think that's your only choice.. To me, it seems like a hardware-related malfunction..
Hmmm yes i think youre right.
I just tried to get into recovery only with volume up + turn on button... thats working
"
I will flash samsung original firmware, maybe it works ^^
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App
If it does: great!
If it doesn't: RMA must be the way..
you have to send your phone to Samsung services it'll be best solution i think.
Dudeeee, what on earth man? RMA should only be treated as a last resort. Don't give up so easily. He hasn't even tried flashing back to stock roms.
He already said it works for getting into recovery and download mode, which indicates it's working to some degree.
OP, flash that stock firmware and tell us what happens.

If you read my post correctly, you'll notice that I've suggested to flash the stock-firmware _before_ sending it as a RMA to Samsung..

Again, read his post correctly - he was pressing "Volume Up" + "Power On" and did _not_ mention any press on the Home-button..

So how do you think he has access to recovery???.......He mentionned he was able to go into recovery mode,basically,the home button works.
I'm pretty sure it's a software related problem.
Go with the stock rom first and tell us the result.
Nope.
Im on stock rom now..
The home button is not working
I got into Download mode with Volume down and Turn-on-button
I havent touched the home button at all
Dont know why thats working ^^...
Tommorow im bringin it to the Shop for RMA
OR do you have some Ideas
It is as though your home button is stuck to "on".
I fear that the next step is to rma.

Do you find the inconsistency? No?
I'll help you out: at first, you paint me as a fool, because you're too blind to read my post correctly.
Just one post later, you suggest what I was suggesting since my first (or second, can't remember right now) post.
Result: read first, think second, think again, _then_ - and only then - post, but stay polite at _any_ time!
Had the exact same issue with the button working for booting into recovery and download mode.
Sorry to say this is hardware related and I hope your rma is accepted.
I took mine to the repair centre and they told be it is water damaged. I never dropped it in water though.
Also the home button is glued to the whole freaking screen. The samsung part comes as the whole lcd assembly with the buttons with it so I was quoted 245 dollars.
You can buy the button online but I digest you to have a look on YouTube for the dude that disassemble the phone. You will see how hard it is
By the way, my button stopped working for recovery as well although now of o press hard on it it does work (for booting and in the OS).
last but not least, you will learn how to use the phone without the home button
Good luck with the rma

Bricked phone ?!!

Hello everyone ! Two days ago I wanted to flash the stock firmware on my S6500D and the pc restarted when I was flashing the recovery.img I think..and now the phone shows only the Samsung logo ( but very very veeery low-quality resolution ) with some lines in right, how can I repair it..?
ye, it's a brick. I had the same problem when I bricked mine. At first it had corrupted graphics, after some minutes it didn't boot at all.
There's no way to reflash it..? Without replacing the motherboard , I mean..using the software side.
JTAG

man, try do self jtag, watch on youtube videos etc, its simply and not expensive and it can repair your phone. if it cant help, just go to mobile center for new board

i read jtag also working on all galaxy family devices. try it, try.
I could give the device to a repair service ( GSMobile for me ) and they could repair it, but I don't want to give money for this device because the screen is also broken and I think in 2 months I'll buy a S3 Mini ( I love S3, belive me ) and if I find a way with a small amount of money to repair the phone I will do it ! But this jig..I also used some JIG for bricked PS3 but it's not the same way.. and I don't know a lot of things about making one for my phone, if you have a tutorial I will do it, but after I get the S3 Mini I'll surely repair this phone, I want to continue developing and searching and helping the other Mini2 owners, it is my first Android phone and it means very much to me.
JIG is only meant to force the phone into download mode. If the JIG works, your device is not hard bricked... Otherwise, I mean, if it is hard bricked, service center will take care of it. JTAG != JIG
I'll try to JIG tomorow , I'm using this tutorial : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1604707 , TheWhisp, the recovery.img file wasn't flashed totally, I mean it was about 60%..but the boot.img / system.ext4 ( I Think it was like that ) / other files were flashed with succes.. maybe the JIG will do it for me !

I've tried all possible connections and sometimes the phones turns on ( I mean that the Samsung screen appears ) but sometimes nothing happen ( like when connecting PIN 4 to PIN 5 and this is the jig connection )

It wouldn't be bricked if he could flash a stock rom. Read the question. If you don't know don't answer.
To answer if you can't use the touch screen I think you're stuffed. I'm not aware if you can start apk manually ie triangle away via adb. Maybe someone more technical can help you.

well the OP mentioned odin and download mode so thought he can get to there it doesn't need touch just buttons to get to download mode and then flash a stock via PC odin
as for bricking there is something called soft bricking

But he can get into download mode. It doesn't sound like he's bricked to me. Bricked would mean you can't even get to download mode. Soft bricked sounds like where he is at and he can most likely ODIN back to stock.
OP is new here, I think he needs to read the stickies.

if u bricked the touchscreen you can still plug an USB-on-the-go cable to the phone and then plug a mouse into the USB-OTG-cable.
then use the mouse instead of touchscreen inputs. For me it worked perfect
Agreed

Phone freezes after making a call

Hi all, i have a BIG problem. Straight to the point, first of all, this problem exists in 4 ROMS that i had (its impossible but somehow) I had existenZ, existenZ black, Hashuan and Liquid 3.0 (4.4.2). The problem begins, when i try to call somebody, then my screen is turning off and it doesnt recover, i MUST w8 after someone will hung up and then after 3 minutes everythings back to normal. This happens only when i try to call somebody. I flashed nyaka kernel, dooslord kernel and nothing really works...somebody please help.
Whats could be the reason i will try to change something.
Any ideas?
Thanks for helping

Dial *#*#7378423#*#* and go to service test menu.
There u'll find "proximity switch" option... Test it,if it is working.
One more thing u can do is flashing stock firmware...
