Accelerometer/Gyroscope not working ! Help plz...

Hello everyone,
I got my Optimus 4x about 3 months ago brand new. I have always protected it with a case on. So far i love the phone but just last week out of nowhere the Accelerometer/Gyroscope stopped working. As in i cannot tilt the phone during games or watch movies in full screen when i tilt the phone. I checked Auto-rotate in settings...did factory reset ...reboot and all that option...but it hasn't worked yet. What else can i do..help please. Im on wind network in Canada, if that matters . Thanks in advance.

Have you tried calibrated it? I'm not trying to discourage you, but gyro sensor is hardware related and there's a chance that you need to have it fixed.
I've read in HTC One X forum where a guy experienced this and did everything he could and ended up in the service center and got a replacement.

When i try to calibrate it says "calibration failed". I got this phone as a gift actually , so im not sure how to check for warranty.

Sony xperia Z screen broke in my pocket.

Hi I got my xperia z in March and on new years day the phone screen broke in my pocket with a hairline crack and became unusable. I have a very nice phone case to try stop things like that from happening. Anyways I sent my phone in to repair and they told me it would cost R3500 to fix (321.69$). I live in South Africa and when ever I try phone around to get more help they just redirect me to the next person who can not help me. What can I do any help thanks

You can repair it yourself, I think that's the best thing you can do if you don't want to pay that much.
Only downside is that there is a big chance that your phone isn't 'waterproof' anymore after you've fixed it.
Here is a tutorial:

And a place where you can buy parts:

Pretty pricey, but by far not as pricey as getting it repaired.
There are more places you can buy prats like Ebay.

Hello
Hi. I am from Romania and i bought 3 weeks ago a Sony Xperia Z3 from Germany. I have guarantee. Yesterday i saw that all the back glass from my phone is crashed. My phone didn`t fall down on the floor or something like this. I read on network many problems like this and i know that the problem is from my pocket. I don`t know that guarantee will repair this thing. What do you think?

I have seen same issue with T2 ultra in my friend's phone .. The display cracked inside pocket.... I thing that some kind of force applied to it while my frnd handling his bike with the phone inside the pocket....
And here in India it cost around Rs. 10,000 to fix it...

Stops vibrating

Hello everybody,
I have a weird problem with my z1. I bought it a few days ago. Now everytime when I'm typing with feedback, the phone just stops vibrating until I tap de backside of the it. Then it vibrates again for a few words, and it just stops again until I tap it again. Everything stops vibrating, even notifications. It's very weird because I hardly touch the phone when typing, so I can't imagine that the hardware moves. I also don't want to disassamble the phone to check, because I'm afraid it won't be waterproof anymore. When it won't vibrate, I also can't use the hardware camera button. Anyone else with this problem?

Go via Warranty. Get it repaired or replaced.

I would still contact Sony. If Sony replies and said is out of warranty then you don't have to send it in. It doesn't hurt to try and contact them. They might still think the phone is in warranty just choose the words carefully when you talk to them.

I had this on a Z1 compact. Didn't know it could happen on the Z1 too. Was easy to recreate on the Z1C by typing in landscape mode. It never happened in portrait.
Anyway, I swapped it for a Z1 under warranty from the shop (did a warranty return and refund, then got a Z1 instead)

Broken touch?

Hi!
I got an Xperia Z, working perfect until one night when I put it next to a TV on a counter.
Let it stay there for about 1 hour when I tried to sleep, got up again and walked over to get my phone.
Turned on the screen and tried to unlock it, but nothing at all happened. The screen wont recognize any of my touches.
Anyone have any idea at all what could've happened? Seriously, I just let it lay on the counter, no one touched it or even got close to it, but it stille broke.
Restarting the phone wont work, and that's about all I can do. I've tried letting the battery drain out several times since it happened, but no progress what so ever.
This happened about a year ago, and now I've decided to send it to a repair company and see what they can do. But before that, hit me with ideas!
Thanks in advance

It makes sense - if your digitizer is broken then you can't do anything and your screen won't recognize any your touches.
If you can't see any crack then there might be a software problem.
You have to send your phone to repair company if your digitizer/LCD is cracked nevertheless and there's nothing we can do or suggest

No cracks at all, just one small on the glass on the backside, but that's been there for like one year longer then the broken digitizer.
Got any ideas how this could've happened then? Just laying completely still, no special warmth nor coldness, no liquid touching it or anything. It just stopped working.
Might be one of natures greatest mysteriums

Have you tried to reinstall the ROM then?
I don't have any clue about that why this could've happen

No, I have not. This would be the absolutely the last exit, since I have important data on the device.
Anyway, i left it to a guy who'd change the display for me, getting it tomorrow again.
Thanks for the responds tho!

GALAXY Note 4 SM-N910H 5.1.1 Superheating

I have updated to Android 5.1.1 Stock version hours ago and it has two big problems:
1- It has the superheating problem so bad that I could fry eggs on it.
2- It super buggy and slow nad sluggish. It hangs when you want to move between the pages.
Also, I don't know why but I think that everything is super bright and it hurts eyes.

did you do a clen install? or a dirty one?

Factory reset will fix you're issues

Not for me. I did not do hard reset but everything is working fine.

Still downloading here. Will let you know how it works out when I get it installed.

Here clean install on 910f no problems. Works great finally. Everything fixed, just ram agresion stayed

I have the N910C and same thing happened to me.. i did everything i know but my mobile dont cooldown.. everything is hot, the screen, the sides, the back.. i check the temp using cpu-z and says 43-45° only.. i downgraded to 5.0.1 but still the problem is there. Then i decided to show it to a technician.. he also found out that if i take out the battery and turn on again, it wont turn on unless it will be plugged to a charger.. he said that the power IC was damaged and it is a problem of a lot of note 4's. I dont know what to do anymore. I already lost my warranty due to rooting.. please any help?

Ask the technician to remove the broken PMIC (power management Intergrated Circuit) and replace it with a new one, he probably has the skills and tools to do it, i also do it at our shop, it's not that hard. And it would be a pretty cheap repair too since the cost of those chips is usually around $5.
Or you can try brick it so it does nothing at all anymore and send it for warranty. If it's dead they can't check your knox status.
