Ok, Im going to assume you have tried other kernels/roms wipe data/factory reset and have same problem.
In this case there is no magic words to repair hardware. You need to send it away to get fixed/replaced,simple as that.

hello everyone
my proximty sensor always turn on after few minutes of booting (turns red),
i dont know why i'm facing so much sensors problems, first was gyro sensor
and accelerometer in my first phone, now proximty sensor in this phone.
please tell me it is a problem, because when i returned my first device,
they replaced it with gt-i9100G, and i9100 is out of stock, so i may get lucky for
once in my life and get the device i want
thanks in advance.
Same with my i9100g..i dont know what to do with it?
for those who have gt-i9100G, please tell if you have the same problem or not
because all i9100G model may have this problem.
thanks.
Do you have a screen protector covering the sensor?
Yup it is covered with the gard I'll remove n try?
removing the screen gard did not help..,
it has 2.3.4.. will 2.3.5 help?

maybe it will....
i remember that i saw one with 2.3.5 that does not have this problem,
the problem is; the rom with 2.3.5 is for a specific region, so it might not work in your device,
additional informations:
i dont have anything attached to my phone, i did a factory reset to the phone
and there is no apps/games installed.
please confirm that you have this problem or not (please mention your android version)
thanks.

hey santacruzdz
what model of galaxy s ii do you have? i9100 or another one?
i was talking about the i9100G
i always check if my phone has some issues before flashing to unoffical/custom
roms becuase they void your warranty
hope you can solve it

Hi everyone,
i don't know if someone already encountered this but sometimes my GS3 does not respond when i try to wake him up. (it's not turned off just standby). The screen stays black en nothing works. One time the screen did woke up but i couldn't unlock it because the touchscreen didnt work. It could not be turned off and the buttons didn't do anything! The only way for me to get out of this was a battery pull!
I did not root or modify anything on this phone because i like the stock samsung TW for the first time .
Did anyone else have this problem? And how did u solve this? Thank u.
Possibly due to an app you have installed.

Thank u i didn't thought of that. Is their an easy way to find out wich app this could cause? I still find it very weird. If an app is not compatible than it just shouldnt install intead of breakin the phone right? XD
This happened me last night as well. Couldn't do anything other than turn the phone off, and when it came back on it was fine again.
Unrooted as well. Would like to find out how I can prevent this from happening again?
if you are not sure about the root cause of the problem better factory reset your mobile

Yes, if it happens again than i will try that. But i already sent the unit back from were i ordered it. They will send me a new one because its their policy to send a new one if something happens in 2 weeks.
So i will see if it still occurs with the new one otherwise its one of my apps. Than i will install only a few apps and see what causes it. If it doesnt occur one more thime than the unit was faulty. Ill keep u guys updated.

Did it happen once? My phone had it like 3 times so thats why i sent it back. But if it still occurs with my new phone than it must be one of the apps i got Luckily they got DOA policy. I asked if it includes ''the phone does not work as it should" and they said yes send it back u will get a new one yaay but now i have no phone
I had this. After a hard reset, multiple times, and configuring with no accounts (no samsaung account, no google, nothing), it still happened. I ended up returning the phone and I've not had a single problem since.
I think it was either faulty memory or a dodgy firmware flash (more likely). Either way, I didn't care to find out and now it's all good.

Factory reset your phone.

Hi,
I have a really strange problem, that I was unable to find among other people.
So, this is how it started:
I had some old official Froyo firmware with Voodoo lagfix and Voodoo Sound on it. One day I've noticed that it now takes like 5-10 seconds after you press a power button for screen to turn on. It started to annoy me and I decided to update to latest official firmware. After I did, the problem I mentioned disappeared. But somehow now I've got much bigger problem...
Anytime when i'm trying to make or accept a call phone freezes. Black screen and battery icon is all that is visible. However, call itself proceed and you can talk, but the only way to finish it is to remove battery (3G calls still works fine, btw)
I've tried all possible firmwares from oldest ones to ICS... tried all cleanup options from recover menu, stll nothing's changed.
I'll be very grateful if you guys can suggest me anything.
Thanks
Just a thought but make sure bluetooth is off, see if that helps
Read it on XDA a while ago.
Hope this helps

yep, it was water. not that I dropped it in there or something, but guys from service center told me that there was corroded track on circuit board. that's why proximity sensor wasn't working, so phone use to freeze each time OS tried to initialize the sensor
Hi guys!
Something is wrong with my phone lately. My phone is freezing, and hanging up. When I take the battery off, and put it back again. My phone shows the battery icon which is charging, or re looping all the time.
What is going on??
Hope someone could help me!

Seriously?? My warranty is gone now, so it's not possible for me to solve this.
Anyhow, I managed to flash a new rom which is XXLPQ5, and after that I took a hard factory reset on the phone. Now my phone doesn't start up at all!
What the hell is the problem???

No idea what's going on.

the only way u can see that issue is software related is to install a diff kernel, which in turn will void ur warranty.
hence the ideal thing is to visit a nearest Samsung service center, as ur handset is still under warranty
do not mess around with things, so that later ON u repent with

I have this problem before...
I solve this by plugging in my ear phone then unplug it... simple
Maybe you should try this method before wiping your phone :fingers-crossed:

Thats the first thing i did before restart even.
I have done with the factory rest still it does not work so mighth be th hardware problem.
Tomorrow i will b going to SC.
SC replaced the speaker and its working fine...
The reason he said is that the connection points on speaker are damaged it seems. Not much info other than this.
