I don't quite know what triggered this, but I recall I was making several (Whatsapp) calls before I noticed the issue. Perhaps the proximity sensor comes into play as well? In any event, I can offer diagnostics as long as my phone is stuck in this state. Please let me know how I can help.

mastervishikhHi! What about you if you update to .191? Are your sensors still not working?Happening with me too since one day. Tried restarting, didn't fix the problem. There is an app on play store called sensor Box for Android. Tested with that and it shows no hardware detected for Orientation, Accelerometer, Gyroscope and Magnetic. My previous phone although cheap shows hardware for all those things.
I think since the gyro sensor is not working, the stock camera app is also malfunctioning in flipping the camera. The camera flips to 180 to front but since gyro is not working it thinks it is in same position as before and gives Camera cannot flip even after it flips.
@madeesh.kannan Can you also check your camera app and tell if you are getting any similar behaviour when flipping to front.

mastervishikhIt is interesting that you got such results in that time, but what I recall sensor detection was okay even on Android 9. Their detection currently in Android 10, see attachments.Happening with me too since one day. Tried restarting, didn't fix the problem. There is an app on play store called sensor Box for Android.

But anyway the Sensor box is strange, still showing that we don't have a temperature sensor, while AIDA64 shows me a total of 68 temperature sensors.
So the only common sensor we really don't have is a barometer - pressure sensor 🙂
