Ambient Light Sensor (ALS) troubleshooting
Context
• If ALS (Poliwag) is broken, replace it.
• After replacing the ALS, ALS re-tuning is required for example if calibration values of the new sensor are
lost (see instructions later in this document).
• When carrying out the ALS calibration procedure, it is required to have a reference phone, which includes
calibrated ALS. ALS re-tuning instructions below explain why the reference phone is needed.
• Make sure that you have completed Display and keypad backlight troubleshooting (page ) first before
starting ALS troubleshooting.
Here are some hints for ALS troubleshooting:
• In
Phoenix
Display Test tool, there is an
Ambient Light Sensor
window, which shows the luminance. The
correct luminance in darkness is <20 lx, and in office environment 100-2000 lx. The luminance value
depends strongly on the light source and the angle of the phone, so these values are only a rough guideline.
• LED drivers’ control voltage measurement points can be found in the SMPS LED drivers troubleshooting
(page 3–46) and Current pump LED driver troubleshooting (page 3–47) sections. When backlight brightness
is set to 100%, the PWM signal is continuously on high state.
