I know that this is completely random, but does anyone else's phone vibrate randomly when you press the buttons on the bottom of the phone quickly?
Sometimes my phone will vibrate when I rub the screen on my pant leg to clean it, or take the phone out of my pocket, and I think that pressing the buttons is what causes it?
Same here
Mine is doing the same. It randomly vibrates in my pockets. Anyone figure out why?

I got a question. When you're talking on the phone, does your screen goes off in 10 seconds, then 2 seconds later, the screen turns back on, then turns off in 10 seconds, and keeps going..
Cuz while I was talking on the phone using bluetooth, I just happen to noticed this and even using my finger to hide the proximity sensor, it does the same thing.
[EDIT] When I'm on a call and then hit the home button to get to the main screen (still on call), then it turns off like normal and it won't turn itself on. But for some reason, in the "Call Window" it just repeatedly goes off and on.. Hmmm
Problem 2: When I'm on a call, and have my phone in my pocket, when someone phones me, my leg would help me 'accept' the call. I did a test. When I'm on a call and block the proximity sensor, the screen locks up (which is fine) but when someone phones in (call waiting), the screen is accessible again even though the proximity server is still covered. This makes it so that it would still accidently accept the call when someone phones in while still in pocket.
Can anyone try it and see if it does it on your phone?
Yes mine does that. It sucks because frequently, I will hit the hang up button with my cheek. Annoying.
I hope they fix this asap...
its very annoying, mine does the same thing
Sometimes I need to get to the keyboard but the screen goes dark during calls sometimes. I dont know why it does that or what i am doing to cause this. It doesnt happen every time. Anyone know or can help?

The proximity sensor is supposed to blank the screen during a call. Try making a call with your phone on the table. Put your finger along the top of the front of the phone (where the speaker grill-area is located). Your screen should blank. When you take your finger away, it should wake up. If it doesn't wake up, try pressing the Talk/Send hardware button to wake up the phone.
This seems to be happening a lot to me. Sometimes when I hold the phone with my shoulder, I'll start face dialing, and when I pull the phone away for a second the screen is off. What's even stranger is that I was in a call just now and did the face dialing, and for whatever reason a "button" was being held (the DTMF tone for a button was going off) while the phone was nowhere near my face, I was looking right at it, and the screen was off!
Anybody else experience anything similar? It's really annoying. I'm not sure if anything is wrong with the prox sensor or what, but I checked it and it is perfectly clean.
same here, happens to me daily.
I have the Verizon G2 and just wondering if anyone else notices the incoming call screen changes. Sometimes I have the screen where the answer/decline buttons are circles and require a slide but other times I have an answer screen with big squares for answer/decline and require a press.
I can not figure out the reasoning why this screen changes formats. I just had 2 calls from the same person and each call was different.
When I'm in a call and get a 2nd call, it normally the big squares. What sucks is that when talking and the phone is on my cheek, the 2nd call comes in, turns on the display and with the huge buttons, I've answered and declined a few calls with my cheek.
I also notice with the latest update that the screen is turning on more often and my face starts hitting buttons. Mostly the clock from the statusbar notification shade, go into time settings and messes up my time. Usually I find my clock in 24hr mode. Today it was 2hours off.
I'm not sure if notifications coming in while on a call is turning the screen on or if the sensor is getting whacky. Its getting to the point where it is becoming annoying so I'm posting about it.
Anyone else notice the dual answer screen formats and having issues with being on calls and the screen turning on? I've been having to hit the power button to force the screen from coming on and launching stuff or toggling my notification stuff.

I have the exact same problem. I actually factory reset the phone to no avail. It's weird absolutely. But I've learned to live with it by not pressing the whole phone on my cheek, instead it's held at a slight angle, just the top speaker on my ear and the rest away from my face. The phone gets less dirty and there's no chance I'll press some things with my face.
I've found that if you manually turn the phone off via power button, it'll stay off. The problem is then ending the call since pulling it away won't turn on the screen.
However I am still curious about the Incoming Call screen theme. Sometimes it uses the small Circles that you click and drag while other calls use the big square button theme. It flip flops randomly.
I can't remember if the Incoming call screen would flip flop before but the screen on/off bug was introduced in 4.4.2
Since getting the lollipop update, I have noticed that the screen turns on when while I am holding it to my face during a call. It seems to be more sensitive, turns on too easily. Also related I think, is that because the display turns on, my fingers seem to hit the 'hang up' button now unintentionally. So I am talking, screen turns on, finger on side of case maybe barely touches screen... call hangs up.
Anyone else seeing this, any way to adjust this so it stays off until I remove it completely away from my face?
