My Niki's touch screen won't work when the slider is open but when i close it touch screen is fine...
Anybody else having this problem??
look this thread
many other niki owners are experiencing the same problem.
look in this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=2174328#post2174328
whatever it is it's a bit frustrating. it only happens when the slider is down and it happens intermittently. seems to be a hardware problem although i'm not sure and not yet willing to do a hard reset to find out. =/
Well, i've tried a hard reset. and unfortunately no dice. will eventually bring it to HTC service center to have it looked at, i guess it's a hardware issue. unless anybody else out there has a solution??
Hi,
I have a problem with the front panel buttons on my tytn.
The mail/IE, D-pad etc and call buttons dont work.
Often they don't light up.
When they do, they often don't switch off when turning off the tytn
Occasionally, they do work.
I have tried taking hte machine to bits and looking at the ribbon cable attachments - they seem OK. Sliding the keyboard out doesnt seem to alter anything.
I tried flashing up to WM 6.1 from 6.0 but that didnt help
Any ideas how I can fix this?
Thanks

Hello,
i am facing this problem.
When making or receiving a call screen of the device should go black when near ear and to normal when far from ear.
This is not working for me. I bought the device yesterday installed few software and then placed the sim card and realized that.
One software i suspect that might causing the problem is BsB Tweak 1.6 that i have installed. Maybe any option of this??
Does anyone else having similar problem?? Any suggestions on how resolving that?? Any third party software to manage the sensors or any option or registry tweak??
**Actually when making a call the screen goes blank but without ending the call and when a button pressed only the screen comes on with call options.
On incoming call the screen is always active.
Maybe have made anything wrong.
Pls kindly advice
THX
anyone????? AMybe is the proximity sensor??
Hi Kangoor.
I am running stock 1.66 ROM with BsB tweaks, and do not have this problem.
What ROM are you running, if it is not 1.66, then download the official ROM for your area and upgrade.
Also, if you suspect it is something you may have installed, try to hard reset the phone, this will basically format the device, and return it to the original factory state.
i think my proximity sensor is too sensitive because it ONLY works normal when i am outdoors at direct sunlight, but even when my shadow drops on the sensor it locks the screen, also in shade or in well lit indoors my proximity sensor doesnt work properly either.
i want to know if there is a way to change the SENSITIVITY of PROXIMITY SENSOR at will? i removed the screen protector so there is nothing on the way of the sensor.
also during a call pressing hardware buttons doesn't bring the device back from standby, hardware buttons are lit for a split second and nothing happens. is there any way to use the hardware buttons (except "end call" button of course ) during the call to turn the screen on?
t-mobile us hd2's proximity sensor works fine but mine has a problem, see the video here;
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OKCRqFYtLMs
thnx for your help..
Any idea?
Any idea? Does anyone have the same issue? Plz it's a very irritating problem I couldn't find a solution..
I havent own HD2, but eventually I will get it this year.. So, I wondering why you removed screen protector? because of sense Ui wont work with screen protector?
I removed the screen protector because I thought that it blocks the proximity sensor and cause it to malfunction, I searched the forum and some people had the same problem but solved it by removing the screen protector. But it didn't work in my case so I'm looking for a solution.
As you can see on the video the proximity sensor works normal under direct sunlight when i move it to the window, in the room it somehow doesn't work correctly..
(english is not my native language so pls excuse me)
Thank you
Thank you for your creativity with subtraction
Sorry for disturbing again but my problem is killing me i am desperate to find an answer could you pls at least share some ideas or recommend something to do?
İ emailed HTC for the issue and waiting for an answer, if you have any idea pls feel free to share i'm stuck with this annoying problem, thnx..
HTC's response
I do apologize there is no way to change the sensitivity of the proximity sensor on your device. You can try a soft reset by pressing the reset button on the back of the device. If that does not resolve the issue then you may want to do a hard reset on the device. Hard resetting the device will clear off the device and reset everything back to factory settings. You will want to back up your information from the device before doing the hard reset. If the hard reset does not resolve the issue then I suggest contact our support department..........

I guess I'ıı have to get the proximity sensor changed..
I searched eBay for a replacement but couldn't find it there are proximity sensor replacements for iPhones, I wonder if the iPhone's and HD2's sensors are the same?(probably not but I just want to be sure)
Hi a have the same problem. Did you found the solution?
well the promicity censor has nothin to go with light or shadows..it could be a glitch in the Radio or ROM try using a new radio or ROM
Hi everyone, welcome to the next thread of mine where I would like to share with you an interesting case of a'faulty' proximity sensor. The issue with the sensor started a few weeks ago (I own my defy for a few months) and the problem I had with it was that sometimes during I was making a call the screen was not being turned off, and more whats more annoying - the screen was never turned on again after finishing the call.
I do not have a screen protector and the screen glass is original.
I downloaded an application that showed the state of the sensor and after a many examinations i found out that many times the sensor does not distinguish between the states of being covered and uncovered.
I tried everything - factory reset, clean installations, different ROMs - nothing helped. The only thing that helped a little was a tweak availale in the CM7 ROM by Quarx (not available in the STABLE CM7 though!) in the screen settings menu -which forced the screen to be turned on after finihing a call, and I could also set the power button to end a call in the accessibility options. So this helped but did not solve my problem.
Fortunately, after many questions asked on so many threads, the user monecafe PMed me with a link to a video where its clrealy shown what is the problem and how easy it is to fix it!
without sayng more - here is the solution for anybody experiencing this issue:

I hope this helps !
& a BIG THANK YOU to monecafe who sent me this video
this is great, very simple solution but...
how will that affect the water resistant feature of our defys?
try turning off auto-brightness
posting to say... try turning off auto-brightness (worked for me)
I used to have this problem. Stable CM7.2 solves this issue for me. I used to get the screen to turn on before by just rubbing the area with the proximity sensor with my thumb as if it was dirty.
i still have this problem. , after the Waterproof failed with my phone ( i dont leave it in water, i just wash it !! the proximity sensor failed too when i make a call screen is black cant see anything..so my question is if i change the screen touch proximity sensor work?? or its on the board ? where is the proximity sensor place?..how can i solve this problem by myself.
i saw the video but not solve the problem..
i back to stock ROM _there_ if i press power button the screen back but in coustoms ROMs the screen off not back till remove the battery!! any software make screen on at call and disible the proximity sensor ?
thank you inadvance

CAN I GET THE TECHNICAL GUIDE(MAP) OF BOARD?
I also have problems with proximity sensor. With pressure on the screen where the sensor is located it is working again.
So I can believe that changing the screw pressure might solve the problem. But what is the initial reason for this? It is not a pressure sensor!

Found a possible Solution suggested by a supplier on Amazon;Switch off the phone - Hold power button & volume down button
simultaneously to bootinto factory testmode - use volume swith toscroll thru to 'test report' - select with the home key - scroll down to 'PS calibration' - select it then scroll to 'do calibration' let it do the calibration till it gives OK.Go back to 1st menu & reboot.
Was only partially successful forme, it may work for you.

Is this applicable for Motorola Defy or for the Chinese clone?
I tried this on my Defy running JB 4.1.2. I cannot get into the "factory testmode" even after pressing the VOL down key at boot up.
I just get a screen with an exclamation and the android bot.
Nothing happens after that.
BTW: What size of screw driver should I use to perform the trick in the video posted by the OP.
Not applicable to original defy
