Hey guys, I'm fairly new here, but there's something that keeps bothering me.
On the left side of the LG there's this 3(?) LED lights or something..
Does anyone have a clue on how they work, or if they even work?
Well, they are not LEDs, they are sensors. Two of them are obvious, one is proximity sensor and the other one would be light sensor. Don't have a clue about the third though...
I'm secretly hoping the third to be a notification LED of some sort
Thanks though

- Accelerometer sensor
- Proximity sensor
- Gyro sensor
eh, what?

That makes no sense. The gyro and accelerometer have no need for visual input, hence highly(!) unlikely that they are what you say they are.
i suspect the first 2 from the left are both proximity sensors, it could be to increase reliability.
the 3rd is the light sensor.
The proximity sensor is based on an IR diode and an IR receiver, just "film" your O2X with a camera and you should see the IR LED flashing.
Thank you guys
Still think they should've put a LED in it though.
Since I use the Ambient Display ,I've heard that Ambient Display is prone to pocket movements ,is there an app to keep the screen off while proximity sensor is covered ?
Thanks in advance !
Ambient light sensor, proximity sensor, compass, accelerometer stopped working when my phone fell down. Any idea to get it repaired. I don't have warranty.
Is someone (dev?) know if it's possible to use the proximity snensor led visible in the call screen as a notification led??
Thanks.

it already is visible if your eyes can see the spectrum of light that it emits (spoiler alert, you cant)
Maybe because for now you can only see it when the screen is on only... And yes i can see it
You can try with the code *#77692# in the dialer then click on "proximity sensor"
yea, that's definitely not possible, but why don't you try LED Me Know?
Hello.
Im new to tasker, my problem is my proximity sensor is almost useless since the front glass is broken on the top of it.
Is there a way to read the ambient light values and trigger some functionalities. Such as AOD and lift to check. Using pixel 3xl btw.
