Dual LED - G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi.
I got my phone back from LG service (bootlooped, they replaced motherboard).
But since its back I noticed my led flash isnt working. Only one of them (top) is flashing. Any solutions?
Or should I send them it back again? Idk if its worth wasting time cuz I guess its no rly diference with 1 or 2.

Check by taking photos in white fluro lit room as well as yellow incadescent light. There is a difference between the two LED, you should see the plastic lens one is yellow and one is orange. These two work to balance out the colour of environment so there is a reason to have both working.
Also check by using a torch app.

1. Maybe try warranty repair or get a replacement, that is defect.
2. Red sensor is normal, that is proximity sensor.

[Q] Appearing and disappearing white pixel?

Hey guys, today I noticed something weird on the left-est (if that's even a word) panel of my HOX. When i click on bottom half of the screen, a white pixel appears and stays there until i touch the screen again and sometimes the white pixel just flashes! This only happens on the 1st panel (from the left) and I don't know if it's just a glitch or a hardware problem. The thing is, this is my second HOX (I had another one for 1 week before replacing it (it had a small black circle-y spot) ) and I had it for more than 2 weeks and the returns policy of the store I bought it from says that they can't replace it if it's more than 2 weeks old. Any ideas if it's hardware or software related, or even ways to check so?
UPDATE:
I think you'd want to know that I have an HT23 model
I had a similar problem with a bright red pixel at the left of the center of the screen. It usually appeared when I am not touching the screen and disappears when I do. After the screen got a yellow tint that appeared next to the volume up button which got worse the hotter the phone got, I took it to the shop and they replaced the "touch, battery and speaker". Touch pretty much means screen as well, I have no idea why they changed the other 2.
It's definitely a hardware problem since I had a similar issue with a stock phone. Btw the yellow tint appeared after 5-6 months, the red pixel was there pretty much from the beginning.

So should I go and ask/demand for a replacement? It doesn't bother me, I don't even use that panel at all, what annoys me is the fact that this is the second HOX I've had and it also has a problem!
It's a hardware fault go and demand for a replacing (HT26+/SH26+).And, if someone later on (in this thread or else ware) suggest to use a software to fix it. Don't bother with it.
I have HT25 with yellow tint showing from time to time. It's annoying me, and still I didn't get the chance to give to to HTC care.

Okay, I will, thank you.

Dual Led flash not working

Hi everyone,
A friend bought a g3 today with lollipop version, and we just found out that the flash is not working.
We tried to install a torch application and a diagnostic app. But the dual Led don't turn on.
I don't think that flashing the phone will change anything, I'm afraid that it can be hardware.
Do you think that the dual Led can be replaced?
Thank you for reading , we really need your help...
Try using camera app to invoke the flash indoors under bright white temperture light (fluro light) the orange one should light up when i take photo as it will try and add some skin tone back with more orange toned flash.
Conversely take photo in incandescent lit room and see of the white LED flash when you tale pics. The phone should try to balance out the orange tinted light with white flash.
If not and under warranty u may have a reasom to return it for repair.
thank you for your answer.
I think this is a hardware problem, and coincidentally when I try to call the seller, I fall on the voicemail.
Basically, he scammed us and I have doubts whether it is still under warranty.
You think it's fixable without changing the motherboard?

LED notification not working

Hey Guys,
Just received my P8000 today and its just amazing. The only thing I am having the trouble with is the LED light. Its just not working at all. I have updated the SW, Rebooted it but I cant get it to work, I have tried testing the LED with Lightflow app but it doesnt glow. any solutions?
Let me guess: it's either white or gold.
If so, chances are that your device comes from the very first batch of P8000. And all of the phones from this batch lack that LED. There's nothing you can do, except maybe to ask your vendor for a replacement.
I myself am biting my nails while I'm waiting for my unit to be shipped, although I ordered a grey one (and supposedly not from the first batch of white and gold units only, as the rumor goes).

Its a white one indeed, this is extremely strange that certain colours dont have LED. I mean what kind of manufacturing process is that
I'm also waiting for this LED issue to settle down before ordering. I really like the phone but I definitely want it WITH the LED notification.
I will most probably buy from aliexpress. How can I ensure that the phone I buy is from the new batch and has the LED.?
buy the grey one or wait two to four weeks

you could try asking the seller as most do test the phones before sending out so worth a try..

No notifiction light here neither. Mine is gold....
Got me a white model. No LED indicator. Given the price, shouldn't really matter but maybe there will be after market parts to buy and install the LED indicator(?).
Mine is golden and it's got the led notification, so it's not only black phones that have it

if you're successful then let us know how it's done!
I got my phone today too. A grey model from geekbuying. I don't find the led. I download the led color change app and when i test the middle button flashes that blue color. Should I assume that mine came without led as well?
White model here as well. No LED as well...
@pelloplasma: The center button IS the notification light when it flashes there is a notification.

yeah, lucky you! but you can't change the colour - that would be asking too much!
Yes, for 150 buck I paid it was tough request to have LED in my phone, infact who the hell does want LED notification these days? who would ever want to know when ther's an unread message waiting or a lost call?
p.s. for 3 bucks more I would have loved to have LED in it, ****, with the chinaphone there is ALWAYS something little that you miss so much...
My LED light works but it doesn't flash when receiving a notification, any ideas how to enable it? I've checked settings.
Hi,
Is there any parts avaiable to have LED indicator for P8000, my phone if the first white series to.

What firmware do you use?

What is dying? Display or graphics chip?

Hello guys!
Background
___________________________________
I'm here to report a sad thing that is happening to me. I'll try to keep it short.
I bought my Zenfone 2 64/4 and got it by first days of october. It's one of the best and fastest phones I've ever used. I noticed the display came defective with the lower left corner a little dimmer than the rest of it, but I couldn't care less because increasing brightness would solve my problem. The bad part was on about december or january when I dropped my phone, I did drop it twice: it slipped from my hands the first time but it was a light fall of like 30 cm; and the second was from greater height and so intense it got scratches on the back cover and the frame, (the impact was on the case and it got no scratches, none at all, like ZERO) but the screen remained intact.
After that second fall, maybe a couple of weeks later, I started to notice a weird color "seeping" and some vertical lines. The screen tarted to look like a painting on a canvas which got splashed with water and the colors started to "fall" and merge with the ones below.
I've been living with my screen like that for like 4 months now and no problem at all, I was thinking about buying a new lcd replacement. But wanyway.... now for the important part.
Problem
________________________________________
Now, after I opened my phone and tried to "connect" the loose cables from the screen (after an impact, it's possible the cables to ge loose), noticed that the screen didn't get better and that problem was not going to disappear. After a failed attempt to repair it, I sealed the phone again and some days passed (like less than 4). Suddenly, I notice weird glitches on the screen and uninstalled CyanogenMod 13 and reverted back to ZenUI, since I though CM 13 was causing the graphic glitches. After restoring ZenUI, I notice the glitches are still present and it's driving me crazy. It only happens on a certain portion of the screen, the top of it is working correctly. Aaaaand, to feed my paranoia, I've seen picture on Google of dead graphics cards and those weird glitches are similar to mine
TL;DR
________________________________________
I am scared, I want the problem to be the screen and not the GPU; if it's the GPU (or CPU), I am screwed. This phone was supposed to be my girl's gift after I got an LG G4. Gonna upload a video later, so you can see the problem. :crying: :crying: :crying: :crying: :crying: :crying: :crying:
Why don't you submit you Asus at service center ??
I don't think they will ever help me since I rooted my phone and installed CM. Void warranty.

Flash the black splashscreen zip through whichever recovery you use first in case you still have the white asus splash screen indicating your bootloader is unlocked. Try and flash stock rom on your phone and remove root through Supersu app after this and hope they don't check if your bootloader is unlocked as that's what counts. Take it back to the shop. All the best

Actually, I don't have an USA address. ASUS loves USA but not México nor South America. Bad luck for me.
Proof
Here's a proof that this display is acting B-A-D-L-Y.
