Hi everyone,
I bought LG G5 seceral months ago. Few day ago Knock On suddenly was not working,
please help............
If the proximity sensor detects something nearby, the knock on and always on display wont work. Maybe the proximity sensor has broken.

Hi,
My gx2 was running cm10 and everything was working fine up until recently when my lcd screen broke.
So I ordered a new one and replaced the broken one, the repair has gone well , also the screen was good. Except there was a problem with the proximity sensor, when i tried to make a call the screen would go black and not switch on again, the only thing I could do was to take out the battery.
So I thought maybe I damaged the proximity sensor somehow while replacing the screen, so I bought a new sensor. The same Problem.
So I thought maybe it was firmware related even though I did not change the firmware and before the screen broke everything was working fine.
I flashed a stock rom, again everything went well , phone was working except the same problem with the proximity sensor.
Anyone know what that could be? Could I have damaged the motherboard somehow, even if that is unlikely because I was always extra careful and patient.

1. You should check if the sensor is really damaged. You can use e.g. Android Sensors app from Play store.
2. If it is broken, then try to disable it in ROM settings. I think there is at least an option in phone/dialer settings.
Maybe that can help.
Good luck !

I know how to disable the sensor, when I disable it calling works, but I want the sensor working . The thing is I thought I damaged it while replacing the screen, so I bought a new sensor, but the problem is still there.
android sensor box shows me a value of 0,0
typing in *#0*# and then "sensors" : the screen is always green an the phone is vibrating PROXIMITY: 13
the phonetester app shows Proximity sensor :near
I just figured something out.
The proximity sensor works when I hold the phone against a light source, when i do the *#0*# test and hold it against the light, the screen turns to white and the sensor works as it should( when i hold my hand near it, screen switches green and phone vibrates) , but only as long as it is near the light source.
Could the sensor just not be calibrated correctly? Is there a way to calibrate it?
than you
The lg g2 had screen issues:

Does the lg g2 mini has similar issues?
I haven't seen any of them
Sent from my D620R [Stock 4.4.2]
I confirme the guy on the last video....i have same problem. Sometimes i need to tape twice on the icone or s letter on keyboard to make it work...
i have mini dualsim....d618...
I had D620R where the screen started going nuts at its own will after having it for a week. Quick Memo was fine, but drawing a lock pattern was a pain in the neck, since the screen didn't register the motion as one continous swipe at all. That also caused misclicks while scrolling page in Chrome.
Got a warranty replacement. Worked fine for two weeks or so, but one morning I woke up and tried to unlock. Touch response went bananas again. Either a good coincidence, or I have some unorthodox usage patterns which trigger that bug eventually. The most twisted thing is that I couldn't go and reproduce the bug in any way. It just came after normal usage (and I'm using the most generic apps) and the bug just solved itself in a few hours. That was the case every time it happened. Of course I could've used another way to lock the phone as a workaround, but since the pattern lock is the most basic Android feature it's very odd that they were able to mess it up that way.
Luckily I was able to return that one also and switched to another model.
Yes there are
I got a D625 on December 20... i was sooooo happy , until december 22... :silly: the screen became not so responsive, some taps it did recognoise but some didn't, and was even worse with the swiping... making it hard to even unlock the phone, then, the next day I had no data conection... no LTE, no 3G... so today I took it to service... they will try and fix it or replace in 48hrs... the thing is I found a video on youtube wich shows that this is a common thing, maybe a capacitive issue or something...
Hey Guys!
I have a big problem!
2 Weeks ago, the display of my G3 (not rooted, original LG Android) broke and i sent it to repairmyphone.de (I'm from Germany) for repair. Today my G3 came back and the display was fine. So i think they changed the display and repaired my phone.
Sounds good right? Well not exactly, because now there is a problem:
The touchscreen is working fine, but when i lock my phone (With the DoubleKnock or the Button) and turn the display on again, the touchscreen isn't working and i can't unlock the phone.
Only after i pull the battery out and start the phone again, the touchscreen is working fine. But when i lock the phone the same thing happens again. Even when i turn off the lockscreen and turn the display, the touchscreen is not working.
The strange thing is, the KnockOn is recognized so it turns the display on when i double tap it, but nothing is recognized after that.
I did a factory reset but the same problem happens again.
So i don't really know if it's a hardware or software problem is and if any one of you can help me with my problem.
I wrote the repairservice an e-mail but i think it will be read on monday.
So if nothing works i have to send it back again, but maybe you guys have a solution for me.
Thanks in advance!
Hi Everyone
Clarify me about something that is atrophying my mind. Does the proximity sensor exist on this equipment? What I want to say is this: when I am reading something on my cell phone, and when I'm not having any interaction with my cell phone (because I'm just reading), and how I have configured the settings to turn off the screen in 15 seconds. My question here is ... just because I'm in front of the mobile phone or just waving to the screen does not turn off (something I did in my Moto X 2014) why does it turn off? Should not it stay on because of the proximity sensor? I was using ROM Lineage 15.1 and I thought there was something wrong with this ROM in the proximity sensor, but I went back to the ROM stock and I noticed that I still have this problem. I was thinking that either this phone has no proximity sensor or it is simply broken. I bought this cell phone a week ago. Please help me solve this issue of the sensor.
Thank you
Regards :good:
Hi all,
I bought this smartphone less than an year ago (January 2021) and, few days ago some sensors (barometer, compass, light sensor and proximity sensor) and the IR light suddenly stopped working. I still haven't opened it and got just some water in the bathroom sink... someone else had this kind of issue with this phone?
Thank you
so, i found this replace part: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/100...1e-0&pdp_ext_f={"sku_id":"12000022260273507"}
There's the barometer and the IR light and the flashlight, but it says nothing about the compass and the other sensors... i still haven't found anything about the other sensors, and i have no idea which part they are on.
Any ideas?
Thank you
