Today my phone randomly stopped sending sound through the normal speaker on the front, and the sensors there dont work either anymore. Everything was jolly around 3, when i made a call. Then later at 8 pm i got in the car and turned on pandora plugged into the audio jack.
When i got home, no sound in the earpiece when i made or recieved calls, I also noticed that the screen wasn't turning off when it was up against my ear like it normally did.
I noticed it was being very laggy with response to the sensor last week some time.
I've pulled the battery, did a clean install of my ROM again, (firefly) flicked the back of it, rebooted many times, charge it up, shook it violently, nothing seems to work.
Sound comes out of everywhere else on the phone with no troubles. The sensor no longer works at all, it's set to auto bright and now it will never change.
I've also tried doing a factory data wipe, and a data wipe in CWM recovery.
Craptivate is fail again.
Anyone have any experience with both the speaker AND the sensor being out at the same time
Sounds like faulty hardware...flash to stock. If it's still broke get a replacement...
Man, if motoblur wasn't such garbage i'd get an atrix. Maybe i'll switch to tmobile and get the G2x
What's best way to flash back to stock, odin?
Yup. thor's father.

won't change the terrible way it stores contact information or all the junk in it.
Are there any ROMs for it yet? It's still pretty new but I thought I heard something about one
Had this same problem. I was about to reflash but stumbled on the solution. For some reason the phone got stuck in headphone mode. Anyway, when in call simply mute then un-mute. Hope this works for you.
My phone ever since I got it has not turned off the screen when in call. my cheek keeps pressing against the screen and presses thing while in call.
What allows the screen to know when to turn off? eg.sensing cheek on screen or the light sensor being covered up or the way the phone is held.
Is there a setting I should look into?
I have the phone as: rooted, s-on, faux kernel, ruu rom, twrp recovery.
Thanks
Also when I put the phone face down to activate the speaker, the speaker does not turn on.
I went to this site: htt.....p://androidforums.com/htc-vivid/606680-screen-shuts-off-during-phone-call.ht....ml
and they said that it was some corruption with the phone. I hope that not the case and that there is a fix.
If you can't solve this problem try to go "Phone" app then press "menu" then "settings" then find screen off when phone or type of,and put a check! Or if this can't to help you, take wet wipes and clean the part where the sensor is located! NOTE: If you have screen protector take away your protector and clean there then call and try without screen protector!

I had a screen protector, so ill take it off. Where is the sensor? What does it sense (heat,light)?
Thanks
Remove your screen protector then clean the entire upper part of the phone to the middle. Then try to call and tell me did your screen shut off

It didnt work. actually the feature where i flip the phone upsidedown to activate speaker phone during a call doesnt work either. I think sense is messed up. It used to work though. I am stock with faux's kernel at the moment.
I did check the setting for the phone flipping and its enabled too.

The sensor is located at the upper left side of the screen and detects changes in light, I'd recommend u RUU, try to see if the sensor works and the flip for speaker and then root again cuz it could be an unidentified bug of that kernel with that specific stock rom.

I also tried using the app to recalibrate the snesor but it doesnt work, gives me some polling error. (http://allmobilsoft.com/android/a_system/2177-dhd_proximity_sensor_recalibrator.html). I also got a app from the play store to recognize my sensor, but my sensor is unresponsive at 9cm. im not sure if the app works or not on htc raiders. (https://play.google.com/store/apps/...xLDEsImNvbS50aWdlcm1vbnN0ZXIucHJveGZpbmRlciJd). maybe my sensor is busted. I know if the sensor starts working then the screen will turn off during call and the auto speakers should work. so I managed to nail down the problem maybe.

Ahg my friend then it sounds like your sensor is messed up, since you flashed the ruu maybe, if you have warranty they'll give you another vivid cuz it's a hardware error from what I understand. And yes that app is compatible with the vivid. Also they don't check the bootloader when its a hardware error so if they ask you if you rooted your phone, say no, but make sure you've relocked and flashed the ruu. Normally if it's your firs incident like this, they replace your phone for free. Good luck
sigh

Actually i think htc directly can help you with that, I dont know about rogers, but when I had my evo 3d I had problems with signal and they told me it was hardware malfunction and told me and told me to call htc and they did help me with the issue. it was two years ago though but you should give it a try.
Actually... its a proximity sensor that turns the screen off... it sucks... i don't know how to word it... its boolean... so its either on... or off... no in between... I personally tried all the build.prop tweaks trying to get it working faster... no dice...

Hello, I am sorry to bother you.
I recently bought Galaxy Camera and now my Lens is stuck out and I am keep getting the "Zoom error" :
"There was a problem using zoom function. Insert the battery again, and turn on the camera. If the camera does not work normally, handle it gently and contact customer service center"
This is my last resort of help before service.
What have I tried:
1. Pulled the battery and try again after
2. Put on charger and try camera
3. Factory Reset
4. Smoothly tapping on the sides of the lens
5. Searching for dust particles in between lens bases
Same problem here..
Were you able to fix it without samsung service???
Same problem too, eny solution?

That's slightly worrying. It's a hardware fault for sure, especially if you've tried the reset instructions and they haven't worked.
Looks like you are going to have to get Samsung (or maybe another camera repairer?) to look at it.

this happens if you have damaged your device. only solution is to go to samsung service center. they will replace the camera module. it cost me about $70.
Has anyone had their rear camera fail?
Mine has performed flawlessly, and then all of the sudden tonight, it will not work. It says "Cannot connect to camera".
The phone was not dropped, exposed to water, etc.
I have tried multiple ROMs, including the stock ROM, with no luck.
Seems like I'm going to have to call Verizon in the morning to get a replacement shipped.

Late reply but better late than never I guess lol. Definitely sounds like a hardware issue and needs replaced!
No worries! I called Verizon customer service on Thursday, and they had a new phone delievered on Friday.
i bought a att note 3 couple of months ago box cams are blurry so i noticed some dust inside . i open the phone clear the dust so front cam is works like a charm but back camera isn't working with an error of camera failed . clearing app data isn't help , re-installing new firmwares(OC1,NL2 both) also came with same error, so i visit for some repair shops and try more than a dozen of camera pieces but camera failed isn't gone. so is there anyone who know whats wrong with it and how i get out from this?
thanks in advance for your time and help.
any help?
