Hello,
After replacing the screen of my xperia Z1 in a mobile store,the Z1 doesn’t find the compass hardware and the gyroscope doesn’t work yet. Is their a cable missed or some hardware is breackdown?
Thank you for help
I have also had same problem after my lcd change. I have solved my problem. Can you check and tell all the sensors are not working or only the compass and gyroscope.

After having my lcd replaced I noticed my sensors stopped working. Well actually compass has stopped working completely but gyroscope, accelerometer, proximity, and light sensor sometimes stop working, and after a reboot sometimes they work for some time.
Also I noticed that in antutu benchmark app it says not supported for not working sensors, except for once when it showed me the right model for the magnetometer.
It'd be very helpful if you told us what you did so we can try the same
I also had the same problem which you described. In my case compass was the main problem. In my case Compass won't show any reading and other sensors will also stop working once I checked the compass.
The compass was in the main flux cable. Once I have replaced the cable my compass and others sensors also started fine. I suggest you to replace the main flux cable.

Hello,
Thank you very much for your answers.
The main cable has dimension of the Xperia Z1 ?
The cable picture in ebay store :

Thanx
Yes that was the cable. Compass present on the opposite side of the keys area. You need to change the cable.

What kind of rom are you running?
If you replaced it then its not a hardware issue it software then

well ı've been using pa v2.54 before and flashed lots of roms in this 3 months i even flashed official rom went stock but still no luck :/
Really strange even with a new sensor and stock rom isnt working maybe the socket isnt good maybe a problem with the motherboard i dont know i thought it might have been a rom problem maybe the people here had a similar issue and they might help i wish you luck and i hope you find a fix

thanks if it was due to the socket im guessing that the speaker and the headphone jack would also not respond... but yeah its a minor issue but really annoying
So I realized if I unplug the sensors the reading will still continue bounce between 4500-5000 lux so im guessing its not an issue of the sensor itself there should be something else... Right?.. Please back me up can be it be caused by the drivers of the sensors ?
And i found this (last post) http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1446005&nocache=1
Yes that picture in the last post could be it it could be a motherboard problem like that just be careful if you dont know what your doing

Sony has an app on the play store called Xperia Diagnostics. Download that and try the proximity sensor test. If it doesn't work then it's likely hardware and you should take it to a service center for replacement

I had the same problem with the screen staying active during calls but after a reboot it was fixed. For the proximity sensor, go Service menu by dialing this *#*#7378423#*#* kai calibrate it and check if that fixes it.

Even me I could not find ear proximity sensor apk or sth like this file
I think the best way is flashing your phone
Flash it by Flash Tools, including wipe data, cache, apps log and system
Guys I can also notice that when I lock my phone .. The backlight does not turn off
Can someone send me the link to the ftf that they flashed (rooted/unbranded) .. And I'll try to flash it and report back if it worked

I had the same problem, I replaced the Ribbon with buttons that connects the screen to the motherboard (there are sensors).
Gyroscope and accelerometer now work.

I have replaced that ribbon as I had a problem with the screen. The other ribbon cable (the one which goes to the magnetic charger) what other function does this perform?
I am having Ear proximity problems and gyroscope and compass problems, i have read about the calibrate issue but haven't got the option when i do the *#*# thing. I am o2 firmware in the UK with no case or screen protector. Phone well out of warranty so it will be down to me to fix.
Proximity sensor problem arises when it is too sensitive, and the problem of the gyroscope is located on the belt connecting the motherboard to the screen. The tape of the magnetic charge unless nothing else does not. Sorry for my language but I'm not from England.

Thanks for the prompt reply, i have replaced the motherboard to LCD tape, someone before me broke the screen and someone had a go at 'repair' and damaged the cable. The other cable has been removed, the charging one, not sure what the other bits are on the cable though, i haven't got a magnetic charger so not too worried at the moment but looks like there is more than the charger, see this ebay one http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/New-Charg...950?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_3&hash=item4acce98916
Right flashed a new generic firmware ending .534 which allows the calibrate menu. When calibrating gyroscope or accelerometer i get a -5 error when trying the proximity sensor i get -99 error.
Dont worry about the english i understood you!
Hi
I've just installed cpuz ver 1.11 in my device and to my surprise, the app is showing always changing values at various sensors readings.
Especially, the gyroscope readings are changing randomly EVEN if the device is placed on the table and still.
Could this be a problem with hardware?
I've tested the same app on my friend phone but his phone does not have this problem.
Can someone please confirm whether all Moto G2 devices has this problem?
I've attached a screenshot, in case you don't understand what exactly I'm talking about.

Hello, i am currently using a Z1 and i have just find out that my magnetic sensor is not working. Accelerometer and gyroscope , GPS are working fine. I am on MX Rom 8.5.0. I have flashed stock rom but it still is the same result. I really don't understand how it got damaged. Here is a pic from the test service:

Is it a hardware fault then?
For anyone having this problem, replace the Main FLEX cable of the z1. Your sensor will work fine now.
