Did you upgrade to custom rom??
Then yes the pulse sensor gives an error, after a couple of retries it will work.
But this keeps coming back
If stock rom.
It works for me on adroid wear 1.3, 1.4 and 1.5 without a problem

Yes, before I installed the custom firmware, TicWear and AsteroidOS
At the moment, the sensor only works on firmware 1.3
On the official firmware 1.4, 1.5 pulse sensor does not work (does not light sensor LED backlight).
Same problem here, the sensor stop working after flashing a custom rom and return to stock with fastboot, (led does not turn on).
But on 5.1.1 heart sensor works fine.
HR sensor works, but in strange manner
Hi,
I have just bought Urbane 2 and using endomondo as standalone tracker. I do not recall version that I had in the begining, but it worked fine. Now I'm on Wear 1.5.0 and 6.0.1 and while HR rate sensor works fine in LG app, endomondo works fine just as long as it's as front app. If I only turn display off or go to clock with endomondo tab in the bottom - HR & GPS sensor stop logging. They pick up back as soon as endomondo is recalled to the screen.
So far no solution from neither endomondo nor LG support.
I will be grateful for any hints, seems like something with working in background, but I found no option to change anything here.

After trying all the ICS roms out there, I've come to the conclusion that my auto rotation and proximity sensors simply do not work within the OS itself.
Flashing back to a GB ROM confirmed that the the sensors are definitely working. And they work fine in 3rd party apps running on ICS... But neither auto rotation nor "screen off when in call" work at all.
It seems from a quick search that I'm not the only one with this problem (http://code.google.com/p/ice-cream-sandwich-sgs/issues/detail?id=224).
Anyone know of a fix?
EDIT: Never mind, guess it's a known issue: http://ics.samsung-updates.com/trouble/
Sensors working fine
With TH CM9 ICS running on my device i've no issues with the sensors. All working fine.
Did you try this ROM as well?
Never faced any sensor issue, ROMS tried Slim2.7,2.8,2.9 Team ICSSGS 2.11,3.1,4.2
On my Xperia T running stock, rooted .141 any time I install an app such as Lux or Velis, they detect the light sensor (and CPU-Z does too) but after a very short time neither brightness app nor CPU-Z can detect it, and Sony's 'adapt to brightness conditions doesn't work properly. Uninstalling the app and rebooting makes the light sensor work again.
Can anyone else confirm that this is the case on their device also?

I am facing the same issue with V. Rebooting makes lightsensor work again.
Any solution available?
Very common issue on our devices : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2453223
Mine does not work anymore at all... Perhaps it will wake up one day...
Hi guys,
Just got my new Gwatch R. I cant seem to get a heart rate reading at all. Can anyone else get it to work? I'm trying through "ok google" and "check my heart rate".
Is there a clear cover sticker over the sensor? I can't seem to see one.
I've also noticed that the green light doesnt come on when I try to take a heart rate reading.
I usually say "show me my heart rate"' but just tried check and that worked too.
Do the words you speak appear on the screen?
Try an alternative app for this ... something like: Cardiograph
If it's still not working it probably means you have a defective unit that required replacement. Mine works just fine with both native and 3rd party apps.
are you getting the "tighten band and try again" message? Thats what i'm getting. I got 3 readings then it stopped. Tried power off and reboot.
Thanks for the replies guys, just worked out, I am running a developer version of Lollipop. Confirmed this is the cause, paired with mates N5 and it worked fine. Weird.

It is one of the few things that work when not paired to a phone, so that should make no difference.
Its likely the re pairing that fixed... I noticed issues with mine not working and it was because of an issue talking to the Google Fit app. I re syncronised that watch and boom working again.
I tried repairing, hard resets. None worked. When paired to lollipop it did some kind of firm ware update. I'm pretty sure that's broken it. When hard reset and paired to kk, there was no update applied and it works. I'm now running slimkat and it's working perfectly.
Each time I hard reset and paired with lollipop it applied the system update to the watch.
it happened to my oneplus one android lollipop as well. it just won't work, but i tried with cardiograph and it works.
use with fitness app
i guys,
is it possible to use watch as BT heart rate sensor with any fitness app, such as Wahoo Fitness or Runtastic, as we do with Wahoo/Polar straps, and get continuous HR reading during workout?
My heart rate sensor seems to work just fine and apparently I'm not dead.

Some apps do and others do not. Runtastic does not. I don't know about Wahoo. Endomodo does. Runtastic seems to want to market their own BT heart rate monitors.

I had the same problem a few weeks back .. google fit cannot take my heartbeat but using cardiograph it work ..
turns out the problem is with my phone .. upgrade the Google Play Service and Google Fit works fine ..
so the HW works without having to pair, but the software might need pairing ..
Has anyone had their heartrate sensor stop working after upgrading from 5.x to 6.x. I can install the 5.x firmware and my heart rate sensor works fine. I've also tried it on the LG watch urbane port and it works. I wipe and then flash back to 6.x (MWD48B) and then my heart rate sensor stops working. I've updated through all the 6.x versions and still nothing.
Any thoughts?
I find it works the first time after a reboot, but if it's left a while and you try again the light comes on and it takes the right amount of time but just shows the value of the last heart rate it detected.
I have Note8. It has a very strange sensors error, as below:
- All sensors, from proximity sensor, light sensor, to GPS, iris scanner, and all the other sensors do not work at all.
- In the app like Phone INFO Samsung, CPU-Z or AIDA64, in the Sensors section, all sensors do not work.
- The Auto Brightness function does not work (due to the light sensor), the brightness of the AOD screen is also not adjustable.
- When making a phone call and move the phone close to the ear, the screen does not turn off due to proximity sensor.
- Auto Rotation function is not working (due to rotation sensor).
- Google Maps shows inaccurate location. Other apps that rely on GPS (such as the speedometer app) are completely not working.
- The iris scanner function does not work either.
It was about two weeks ago. I've Wiped the cache, restart the phone but does not make sense.
Yesterday it suddenly returned to normal, I don't know why.
But today - while I'm typing this post - all sensors suddenly do not work again.
Any idea about the error and how to fix it?
Thank you guys
Best advice I can think of is to factory reset and see if that alleviates the problem.
If you did not do anything firmware-related, or you did not drop or submeged your device, the best you can do is to make a warranty claim, pure and simple, if you have no way to make such claim, well, next time you should consider getting a device from an official source
I've read other users have had same problem. Ones I read said it was motherboard issue had to have sammy replace it.
Thank you guys
There is also built-in sensor test. Open dialer and dial *#0*#
I noticed a problem when I was playing Asphalt (racing game on me Note 8). I am unable to use the Tilt controls to move the scar.
Testing out the Sensors using *#0*# at the dialer revealed that all the SENSORS was faulty.
I reset the whole phone just now. The issue is still there with the sensor. As expected Auto rotation doesn't work.
Running the latest version 8.0.
I recently changed my motherboard (under warranty) 3 months back cos something was faulty. Seems it may be another motherboard issue.
Anyone else in this thread solved the issue?
