i'm the third no solution?

And the same problem with my Mega 6.3 after flashing CM11 4.4.2 rom by silesh.nair. Somebody knows what's wrong with our phones???

No one helps I've installed program that shows proximity sensor values and it's look like sensor in my mega doesn't works correctly. It's recognizing "near" all the time and don't response for any actions. Maybe sensor is broken. I've tried to change sensor values, but it doesn't help anyway. I have probably lost warranty after flashing CM11 and really don't know what to do now
Sorry for my poor english...

Flash a custom ROM/Kernel and see if the sensors are fixed. If they aren't then it might be a bug or hardware failure

i9100 proximity sensor doesn't work
Hi to all!
I have the issue with proximity sensor and didn't manage to find a solution in other similar threads!
The matter is that it is always stay as Released.
In the same time in test screen (*#0*#) there are changing reading for PROXIMITY parameter from 2 up to 240 with no ADC parameter at all. Please look for screenshots. PROXIMITY parameter changes its value when I move my finger in front of the sensor, but as I can understand Android doesn't recognize it because of ADC absence.
Moreover I tried to change proximity sensor for working one (from another phone), but it shows the same as mine (with no ADC readings).
After all I think it is software problem, but I don't know how to solve it. I flashed different firmwares (now it is XWMSE NeatROM v.6.4), but nothing helped.
Please assist! Thanks!

STAR G9000 (Kingelon, MTK 6592) screen problem after flashing ROM

Hello,
I own a STAR G9000 phone, which is also known as STAR Kingelon. After playing a bit with it i decided i'll upgrade my 4.2.2 Android to 4.4.2, and decided to do a bit of research which resulted in finding a ROM etc. Once doing so i used the SPFlashTool v.5.1408.00, followed instructions, and everything went well without any problems. I decided to turn on phone and....
Rom worked, i could hear sounds etc. screen reacts to touch, but this is how screen looks (see attachment)
After this i tried a lot of different ROMs, some worked some not, but in the end the problem was the screen, always pixelated like this. Anyone has an idea what might cause this problem? I tried default stock ROM as well, but in the end it looked like that.
I'd appreciate any answer, or tips of what to do or not.
Peace.
someone who solve it please?
I think we're screwed... however if you find anything, let me know!
Michel
i have the same problem
i have the same problem i think is a screen controller, why? because the ROM we install maybe has a different screen controller.
if you could fix this let me know this is my email [email protected]
greetings.

[Q] Xperia Z Ultra GPE - Proximity Sensor Issues

So I'm having some real issues with this phone.
I originally broke the screen and changed the glass myself. It works fine, except when I receive a phone call. I looked around, and it seems that it's an issue with the proximity sensor. I tried to calibrate it following several directions, but I can't because it's upgraded to the latest firmware.
I would downgrade, but I read that:
Warning:
Never flash a Sony FTF file to your GPe, it will hard brick it
So I can't flash a lower Sony FTF to do the Proximity sensor calibration as far as I know.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Sensors only work un LP, HELP!!!

Well guys, my english is really bad so, i pasted the text what i posted in htcmania translated with google translate.
"First of all I must clarify that I am fully co desperate ... mostly because of not knowing what the **** is wrong with this phone.
I'm going to summarize everything.
A few weeks ago my mother told me that your screen is not rotated, then got into the menu of Samsung (* # 0 * #) to check that it was not a failure of the sensors and indeed it was, or seemed to be.
So far, all sensor data threw least the magnetometer and accelerometer. I tried everything, I integrate mobile disarmament, pass a neodymium magnet plate by carefully etc. Everything to do with the unit did. There was no other option for these sensors are damaged and most likely they were to touch plate change. Finally the phone could use so I will pay my S3 (which works perfectly) to my mother I stay with this as he gathered the money to buy a plate and change it.
Days later I started to lose my job ROM and the install CM12.1 got everything perfect and when you start the phone and turn perfectly broken screen, I was shocked, the first thing I thought is that perhaps CM12 using the front camera or other sensor to rotate the device, in order to assure lower the app CPU-Z to check the sensors and I find that the accelerometer data perfectly cast, lower Sensor Kinetics to make it a fabulous test and walked the other hand the magnetometer (compass) He never responded.
I thought, "Well I hit and walked out"
But it was not so fortunate who had since returning to Stock (4.3) I meet who do not respond, but I get confused the next day back to my job and under various Roms to try in my home-based CM10, 10.1 , 10.2, 11, 12.1 and a pair based on stock. Well. The accelerometer only I worked in 3 Roms, the 3 based on CM12.1.
And here most of my questions arises.
You likely they are to be a problem Soft?
If it were, returning to a stock should solve tried 4.1.1, 4.1.2, 4.3 and nothing.
But on the other hand I think if directly Hardware not work at all, that is because Lollipop works and not lower?
I want to clarify that it is no coincidence that works in Cm12.1 since I reinstalled and reinstalled and perfect furula (only the accelerometer)
You think? There is a possibility that there may be some partition where deleted files are communicating sensors? If so, I have possibilities to operate the accelerometer in all Roms and recover the magnetometer restoring those files?
HELP PLEASE NO LONGER DO BOYS."
The sensors only works in Roms based on CM12.1 (5.1.1)
I could run only the accelerometer in that roms, magnetometer never responded
How is posibble what the sensors works in CM Roms and not in Stock roms? Damn guys, I'll set fire to this phone.

Yes I dit the update
Do you have a pair of earphones with a mic? That way you can tell if it's software or hardware at least.
My Thor E hasn't had this problem, I just had a quick look at the settings to see if there is a way to turn up the volume on the mic, but couldn't find one.

Low mic volume during call
I've got the same problem. However the mic works fine when using WhatsApp and other internet voice calls. The problem seems to affect only regular calls. Regular calls over bluetooth handsfree and jack headphones works just fine.
Hard to say if the problem is sw or hw but the mic alone definitely works. I noticed that the volume sounds fine at the start and then gets lower.
There is another forum trying to solve this: attp://bbs.vernee.cc/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=1963&extra=&page=1 (change the a for h at the beginning as I can't post links as a new user ;O] )
Someone recommended to turn off and on the speaker button during a call but it doesn't fully work for me - it gets a bit better but goes high and low and thus is unusable. Tried several times on both ends of the call.
edit: someone on the other forum says the problem is sw and will be solved soon via update... I guess we will see (or not ;O] )
edit2: problem solved with firmware update Thor_E_20170615
Same problem here but the 0615 update did not solved it.... it seems that the mic volume starts fine, gets lower, then fine and again gets lower in waves... it is very annoying... does anybody have a good solution?
I had just received the Thor E and I had the same problem, I temporarily fixed it by disabling "Ok google from any screen".
Other people reported to have solved the issue by altering the volume levels with the app MTK Engineering Mode (I don't know if I'm allowed to post links to other forums, anyway if you search on google you should find something)

I can confirm removing "ok google" on every page facility this solved a number of problems for me too.
Lastest update here, 0615, I've totally disabled Google Now and I still get a very low volume on calls
Thor E multiple issues
Just bough the it last week from a reputable seller I thought. Out of the box issues with first sim slot non functional, only 2nd slot took sim, meaning no extra storage.
Sound / mic issues as listed. Got 2 OTA and updated.. still same issues remained. Seller asked me to do recovery by pressing power and volume and choosing recovery. Failed as I get android with exclamation mark saying "command not found"
Seller refused return postage refund...
Found official rom on vernee site.. updated / downgraded to 20170615.. now camera issues, back camera gone, front camera upside down..
Really unhappy and clueless
I have bought the Phone in the last days, got 2 OTA and updated. I dont know before, but now I have no Sensors ( NO Compass, NO Gravity).
Today I received a new Update (Thor_E_20170704) but the same Problem.
PS: I have tried to downgrade the ROM to Thor_E_20170524, but it´s not working.
If I downgrade with Flashtool there are no Errors and it shows that all okay, but I cant boot the Phone after Flash, the Phone is pernamently off.
So I reflash the ROM Thor_E_20170615 but No Sensors. Any Solutions?
a friend of mine solved the volume problem with a factory reset.

i've got another problem.
i've installed twrp and i forgot.
when i've done the update (june) it loops to twrp and recovery mode is unavaiable...
Vernee thor E
I have the same problem with this phone...
I really don't know what's wrong with that??
It´s a Firmware bug since Thor_E_201706XX
At this moment the Thor_E_20170524 firmware is the best option.
The latest OTA update Thor_E_20170704174452 is a catastrophe.
The twrp does not work anymore with Thor_E_20170704174452.
Someone is trying to fix this issue.
IMEI problem?
How do I get my IMEI back?
Enter this code in the dialer
* # * # 6813 # * # *
Enter your IMEI
Restart
Hi, big issue. Had this new phone in my hand for an hour or so, then I decided to update the firmware ... 5 minutes and then PUF. Cell dead. No way to turn the phone on. no light, no led ... nothing...
I bought Vernee Thor E about 2 months ago. It was working fine until i upgrade it. Now issue is with voice calls. Whenever a call is going on it stops my mic function, i need to switch on and off the speaker button to re-transmit my voice. It just disable my mic when i press any button shown on dialer while on call it make mic available, and it happens after every 2 to 3 minutes of call.

Question Proximity sensor

Hello one big problem I have is while I speak proximity sensor does not work as it has and while i speak maybe notifications open or anything else...
can you please tell me if there is any solution?
thank you
Hi, this is know issue from Xperia 1 II. And sony support know that but there is now fix for this. Sony explained that this fault is because of its shape and size. Correct if i am wrong.
Following, as this is one of the most annoying things on this device.
I think in one of the forums was guy that contacted sony support and they have stated that this is design problem and they cant fix this. You need to get used to it and dont move your phone in the ear when talking.
sensor is on the right side of the speaker, some 5-6mm so try to catch your phone a bit more on the right side and once you get used to that it won't be happening so frequently
