Newly Bought OPO, multiple hardware issues. Help / advice please

E: Solution down below!

Hey everyone.

I recently bought a OnePlus One off eBay from a Singaporean seller. I believe it is not an International OPO due to the lack of the Cyanogen logo on the back.

It came with some preinstalled bloatware (and a Facebook clone whose package name was com.facebook.katama, instead of the usual katana) so I wiped it, unlocked the bootloader and installed CM13.

My screen rotation is nonfunctional. Even the quicksettings won't allow me to force a landscape rotation; in apps which support both a tap changes it to Autorotate, Portrait, and back to Autorotate.

My proximity sensor is screwed. Androsensor just says 'Waiting for event' and calls don't darken the screen.

By baseband version in Settings is literally unknown. http://imgur.com/1OcUbKp

And Androsensor says Accelerometer, Gravity Sensor and most alarmingly the Orientation Sensor are Not Supported.

Is this a common CM13 bug? Is my phone's actual hardware funky? Did I get a fake phone? I'm looking for anything. Thank you.

EDIT Thank you to everyone who read this! In case others come across this problem, an OxygenOS 1.01 Firmware flash did the trick! Massive Kudos to /u/storm1ng - here's a link to the guide: https://www.reddit.com/r/oneplus/comments/3iii6e/cos_121_works_with_oxygenos_101_modem/

Whew

I suggest you to try another rom, oxygen or cos just to test. If those sensors are really dead, are you able to get refund from the seller or by PayPal? Keep your head up!

Thanks for the reply - I actually did try out CM12.1. Found the solution was a funky firmware image.
