Kind request from users:
Please report any kind of new issues you experience after installing this update only if you've already flashed this ROM with SP Flash Tool in Firmware Upgrade mode. In rare cases a FOTA update can cause more or less serious malfunctions but that means only the update process went wrong, not a badly developed ROM. An updated stock ROM, especially related to the basic functions will not cause any new issues but will solve some of the existing ones.

Unfortunately if you have this issue after the 0702 update, the only solution is to perform a factory data reset in recovery or flash this version with SP Flash Tool in firmware upgrade mode.

Hello,
I have the version EEA_V1.1_20200702 on my A7pro.

When I take a photo in landscape mode, the photo is displayed upside down.
What to do ? Can you help me ? Thank you

Hi, Then your issue is caused by the gravity sensor not the proximity sensor. Test your g-sensor in factory testing mode.
1. Dial *#8111#
2. Select 'Sensor -> gravity sensor test' and test the sensor by turning your phone in every direction.

Hello,
I tested the gravity sensor.
Even when I move the phone, nothing moves.
The displayed values ​​do not change.

I also tested the gyroscope sensor and the values do not change.

Thanks for your help...

Hello,
I updated twice with the latest version (with sp flash tool), but the sensor still doesn't work.
I also tried with the previous versions (V1.0_20200528 and V1.0_20200611) but without more success.
So it must be a hardware problem? What to do ?
