It doesn't sound that great to me. If a reflash didn't work, why don't you try an different rom. Just to rule out a rom error.

I have the same problem as mlovesu...I have done a complete wipe everytime i flashed a new ROM..also tried different kernels(siyah 3.2.2 tried latest)...
now have gone back to stock firmware XXLPH and rooted again..the dialer works for now but the proximity sensor still doesnt along with the screen brightness sensor..
any help pls guys...have been doin everything possible for a week now...i dont think its a hardware error as the proximity sensor does light up(the infrared light) but not on calls...have tried the samsung tests for sensor..but that seems to not show any change in values if u move ur hand closer..
thanks
freeze omg

Hi all,
This is my first thread... I've looked every forum, every existing thread looking for an explanation / solution, with no luck at all... I hope somebody has experienced this with its prime and found a solution, because I'm thinking in RMA it...
The thing is that my sensors stopped working! No accelerometer, no magnetometer. The screen rotates itself to portrait mode when an app asks for it, but it stays that way when exiting the app. I have to go to Settings -> Display to uncheck and check Autorotation to go back to landscape mode. This is annoying! I installed an app called Elixir 2 and in the sensors page only the microphone is listed as present. Every other sensor is displayed as not present.
I noticed it two weeks ago, but I wanted to look for a solution instead of getting it replaced. I think it came with a .15 and it was updated to .21 in the first connection to Internet. I waited for the .28 to be released just in case it fixed the problem, but it did nothing, still has the problem.
By the way, I tried a cold boot and a factory reset... still nothing.
If I can have any word from anyone I will be pleased!
Thank you!
PS: forgive my english, I'm from Spain
Get the app called elixir2. its free. Kirk show u detailed info on everything, including sensors. itll show real time info on them. allows u to cut them off n on or reset them. it might help.

Well, that's exactly what I did! I said it before It just shows an X beside every sensor and under them it says something like "not present" (I don't have the Prime here right now). In that sensors page the only one that is shown as working is the microphone.
Any idea?
Thank you anyway!

Here's a snapshot of the Elixir2 sensors' page.
Hi, I cannot suggest anything new to try.
Today I noticed some of my sensors were not working, tried playing Riptide and found I could not turn. Also tried a level app and found that the orientation was not being detected. My problem was fixed by powering off then turning on again. I did not try elixir2 before the power off, therefore could not say if my prime was in a similar state.
Good luck in getting your prime going again.
Cheers stv

Well, at least someone experienced the same... even with a reset I can't make it work. Is there any "ultra-reset" I can do?
Before .28 I get the same issue.
Sensor can restart after a reboot or a cold start, but after I plug on the dock or after a deep sleep,the sensor stop.
Sometime, after a restart the sensor was not recognized. I use elixir also to check.
Now with .28, the sensor work well.

Did you update to .28 over wifi or using a microSD?
Thank you!
Update done through Microsd.
I have tweaked buil.prop on .21 and result Fota didn't work.
Think also to make a cold reboot and clear cache of all application (can be done with elixir).

demandrin - off topic, do you know where I may be able to get the circiut board that has the microsd slot and the touch screen sensor connectors. I accidentally damaged the connectors and now I can only use the tablet with the keyboard dock as a mini laptop. I emailed Asus but they would not sell me the part. I wonder if Gary would be nice enough to sell me the part.
Is HP the only company that sells parts to customers (I love HP for that reason LOL!!)

An update with my problem: I finally installed the .28 through SD card, having wiped all the data first, and the result is the same: no sensors are present. No autorotation, no compass, no auto-brightness. Elixir shows only the microphone as one of the sensors, everything else is shown as "not available" (as shown on my previous snapshot).
Any help?
Thank you!

And yesterday, with no reason at all, ALL of my sensors (accels, gyro, magnet field, etc.) started working again. I just powered the tablet on and voilà, everything was perfect! Elixir showed all the sensors up and running!
I think this post can be closed now... I hope it doesn't happen again!

im having the same problem. I have uninstalled all apps, wiped the sd cards, reinstalled the rom, downgraded to the factory original gb rom. nothing is fixing the problem. I dont thank the gyroscope is the problem though. I think it is the accelerometer that is acting up.
Hello
I am having a problem with my screen capture. I've took it to best buy and they tried everything but factory reset. I have a Sprint note 3 and ever since the software update I cannot screen shot for nothing. Can someone please help?

Im having the same problem. I emailed samsung about it and they emailed me back with a bunch of instructions on how to update the security. I followed the instructions then tried to screenshot and the same message popped up. Palm swipe wont even let me activate it. The pin doesnt work. And holding the power button and the home button doesnt work either.
Hello everyone,
So my S6 edge back key started acting up couple of weeks ago. After the phone sleeps (not just screen off, after dozing) the back button stops working. After using for a couple of minutes it starts working again. Right now i am using 'all in gestures' as a back key replacement.
All suggestions for a permanent solution are welcome.
Thank you all.

I have seen in some forums some people doing it and not getting the results. I don't want to do a complete reset unless it will fix the problem for sure. I have tried resetting the settings and wiping the cache partition.
