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

We all know that the nexus one has in the top left hand corner 2 types of sensors:
1. Proximity Sensor
2. Light Sensor
I dont know which one is which but in this demo of the day 2 conference one of them lights up during the demonstration of a call. Can someone explain why that is?
Take a look at timestamp 23:02 in http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IY3U2GXhz44
That could very well be an infrared light flashing and being picked up on the camera.
Is that how the proximity sensor works? Sends out flashes and looks for a reflection?
Could possibly do that when a call initiates and whenever motion is detected to check the proximity.
Try it yourself. Start a call while looking at your phone through a webcam. I just did and can see it flashing while the call is active. It doesn't flash the same way as on the phone in the demo, but more of a steady flashing on mine. Could be that it is more efficient in FroYo or the version they were running.
Nice find, I overlooked it when I watched it earlier.

Not sure which sensor it is but
1) infra red light does show up when you look at it through a lense with filter/coating/film. Try looking at your tv remote with your digital camera.
2) the blinking could be the video framerate
I think it's most likely the proximity sensor. The light sensor should just take in data and never give out any type of signal. Also I did over look the way a proximity sensor works. It does send out some type of signal and it needs to collect information such as reflection index and velocity to get an accurate measurement of distance
Didn't notice it lol.

It looks like infrared sensor. probally the proximity sensor.
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?

@xmoo
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 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
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.
I am facing the issue with a sensor while making call after oneui2.5 update.
Sometimes, the screen remains black after the call disconnected. To wake up the screen I used (double tap or power button)
After a restart, it works good. But after some time it became laggy again.
Does anyone face the same issue?
I have a quite different issue with the sensor. My screen doesn't go dark most of the times even when the phone is close to the ear. I guess there's no sensor in this phone, it also uses front camera to adjust the brightness.
Yes, the same issue when close to the ear. I don't know about the separate sensor or camera sensor.
