Hello,
I know that most of website (except gsmarena) report that the mi11 has a barometer inside ( pressure sensor ), but back in the days, they also did for the pocophone, and when i received mine, there was no barometer for my paragliding app...
So, could some mi11 owner be kind enough to send a screenshot of the sensor tab in the CPU-Z app, so i can be sure, and i will also know what kind of pressure sensor it is ( bosch bmp285 perhaps ).
Thanks,
The barometer is BOSCH BMP285 SENSOR, press about 30 units to fluctuate
So you confirm that mi11 has a barometer, right?
Huh?
No barometer here:
mi-11

Did you check your CIT-Menü in settings, my device, all specs, 3x tap on basebandversion? 22. pressure sensor
You can find pressure - barometer in compass app

I remember (but not for sure) a settings page that gave you the ability to test different sensors and what-not. the reason for my question is because when i make a call the proximity sensor doesnt work, and i wanna know is it because of the rom or anything software related, or is it the sensor itself, since i recently had repair done on the screen.
thanks.
Nobody knows? i got a 30-day warrenty, so if my proximity sensor really isnt working i need to know soon.
I've used an app previously that would display raw readouts from the various sensors in the device, including the proximity and ambient light sensors. Stand by while I try to find what app that was...
In the meantime, you can at least verify that half of the sensor is working by looking at the screen through a digital camera or other phone's camera. The proximity sensors works off of a flashing IR LED that you should be able to see through a digital imaging sensor. The sensor is located to the left and below the speaker.
Also, I believe the application I was using is called "Elixir", and is free on the Market.
Thanks man, great app. everything is working ok now.
Hey guys. I have looked around and can find no info on some of the tabs sensors. From what i understand the chipset is straight out of the galaxy s phones, which is the reason i see the existence of a proximity sensor but dont see any data from it.
Anyone have a clue whether it actually exists?
chipset and sensors are different things....even if the chipset supports a certain type of sensor doesn't mean it should be there if there is no need to be there.
galaxy tab doesn't need a proxy sensor cause you are not going to put it beside your face when calling...

Doesn't need and doesn't have are different things. Point is, if it was stated that the tab has a proximity sensor, where is it?
I'm pretty sure it has one, in the unofficial CM build Technomancer says he fakes i at 10CM
There is no proximity sensor in Galaxy Tab.
My CM7 sensors driver pretends there is one and reports 10CM distance so the Phone app behaves better.
Thanks mate, that's what you said in the last thread back in October, but why do all the sensor pingers see it? Are they checking code rather than hardware?
Also, is there a working, sensitive light meter anywhere for the tabs ambient light sensor? The couple I've tried refuse to work...
There is working light sensor in the Tab. Both my CM7 and Samsung ROMs support it just fine. It has range from 0 to 6000 Lux snapped to one of several levels in the kernel driver. You can actually read it from sys interface.
The proximity sensor in my CM7 sensors driver is just software reporting constant 10cm to the system. The sensors test apps in my CM7 (I uses Sensor Test and Plot http://www.appbrain.com/app/sensor-test-and-plot/com.golborne.android.SensorTest) just reports 10cm from my fake sensor.
I think there is some leftover code in Samsungs sensors driver that may report presence of proximity sensor.
Yep, i use it as well, but my issue is with the three avaliable states the driver seems to report.
I get 5, 22 and 75. Are there only three levels then? And no way to modify them outside the kernel?
I can get up to 6000lux using strong LED flashlight directly on the sensor.
There is another sys device that can read unprocessed data that has values not snapped to 5,22,75 etc... but Samsung's driver uses the snapped device (and so is mine).
This is very annoying... im trying to make an app that needs a proximity sensor to work as intended so the light sensor as well as the sleep mode implementation are really no substitute.
In any case, im sure it will be quite usefull for all tablet owners running 2.2 and up and using a case. I will have a closed beta for xda members by the end of the day, so people can test it over the weekend.
Would you like a shot, mancer?
I don't know what would you do but if I understand why not to use the g-sensor ... just like in samsung omnia...put backwards enable silent courtesy mode.
the proximity sensor will be useful if you use the leather case to close the screen when touches the screen , like ipad 2 and galaxy tab 10.1 V they have proximity sensors , but i noticed that the sensor exists using sensor applications they see it exists but not giving readings
Hi - there is no sensor, the sensor list showing it is just a glitch from the galaxy s motherboards. And the functionality youre describing is already available in my app Killswitch - you can get both the lite and full version from my signature...

Thanks I already bought it from market and it's great
Sent from my GT-P1000 using XDA App
Great! Im working on an update that will help improve the accuracy of the light sensor functions... been getting some flack for not updating it
Watch this space!
Hi all,
i am just about to buy a Moto G 2014.
But i have a question regarding the sensors.
Is there a true magnetic compass or the like?
I mean a sensor that shows up magetic north without using GPS data.
I checked the spec sheet but they tell about a digital compass and/or gps compass. The spec sheets differ...
Which makes me wonder if there is a sensor for orientation.
So i would be very glad if someone who owns the device could do a sensor test.
The app GPS STATUS or SENSOR BOX for Android tells the truth.
Turn GPS to off.
If there is a magnetic sensor GPS STATUS immediately shows the compass rose turning northward and the value of the magnetic field.
If there is no such sensor it tells that this function is disabled.
SENSOR BOX nearly the same ..
Thank you in advance and enjoy your device.
There is compass / magnetic sensor

First sorry for my bad english
I have a Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro, stock rom, I discovered a problem with the sensors, some times in the 2x option a wrong sensor is used, if you keep the sensor covered, the correct one is used, the ultrawide is ok, the main 48 mpx sensor is never used.
I have tried on 3 devices, with the same problem.
The 3 devices are from the same lot, i don't know if is general problem or not
Its not a problem, camera app uses main 48mp lens as 2x when there is not enough light and zooms digitaly, but in daylight there is no problem to capture with 2x optical zoom lens. So when you cover 2x lens, it automatically shifts to 48mp main lens.
Hi there! I recently bought Xiaomi 12 Pro Gloabl MIUI 13 and I faced really annoying problem. The proximity sensor does not work and it did not pass the test. Allays shows 5.0 at the test no mater if the sensor is covered or not. And the real problem, the big one is face ID does not work at dark, like there is no IR at all and that is great issue for me, because this makes phone completely useless for me while traveling at night.
What I red the proximity sensor is virtual instead of hardware and it makes problems and user waiting for software solution for years. OK, but what about IR camera for face ID. Is it integrated in this phone or not. I find no answer.
Planning to switch to xiaomi.eu rom hoping for fix, but...lookin for solutions with golobal rom, because I use a lot of banking apps that I`m not sure if they work wit unlocked bootloader.
There is no IR cam, just the regular one.
That's not a 12 Pro only issue, most phones behave the same in the dark.
You can however use the fingerprint, so where's the point of calling the device useless at night?

The point is, when the phone is in holder I just tap on the screen and it unlocks by face ID immediately. That`s I have used with Mi8 till now. Fingerprint of 12 Pro is very slow compare to Mi8 and mostly unlocks with second try.
Well I have to adjust to new lack of hardware, but quite expensive Xiaomi

Try to register your finger a second time as an additional finger. This could help to speed up the recognition.
I faced proximity sensor problems with my 11T Pro but the 12 Pro is working great. I use the fingerprint which for me is lightening fast. Unfortunately without the front IR sensor, no photos going to work like iPhone when it comes to face I'd.

Hi did you try to move the phone towards your hand during the test? because this movement simulates the gesture of answering a call.
Enable double tap to wake, then unlock with index finger
PS Don't use phone while travelling
