If there's no notification led i bet this phone has a camera next to the proximity sensor.
Will it be enabled in the future with a hack like multitouch on huawei u8510 ideos?
Please use the search, this has been asked many times before.
There is no front facing camera on omnia 7, just proximity and light sensor.

Would it be difficult to use the front camera as a proximity sensor during calls only?
When "phone" is launched, if the front camera is blacked out, the screen will turn off.
Allready done..
Hey There,
Thats allready build in in my HTc touch pro 2.
When you receive a call, and you put it to your ear, the screen fades out.
Very handy.
Just so you know!

Yes, because your TP2 has a proximity sensor.. and the TD2 doesn't have one
Incall Screen Tweak can do that and more!! search the forums for a link
anyone know what these are for?
they are hard to see, use a flashlight on the black part next to the earpiece
Proximity sensor.
There seems to be two of them, are they both proximity sensors?
1 is proximity sensor, the other one is light sensor.
Hello,
So today i noticed on the left side of the speaker, that there are 3 sensors, both of them are together on the same place, which should be Light sensor and proximity sensor... but what about the other one more to the left? Seems pretty much like a Small LED to me.
Check this picture guys and u will see it clear enough!

Update after a test [Post #4]
Center: Proximity
Right: Light
Left: ?
Is one the light sensor for the auto-brightness thing, and the other two possibly a 'sender/reciever' set up for detecting when it's close to your face in order to turn the screen off during a call?

I believe the proximity sensor and light sensor are both together, which leaves the left sensor... i wonder what it is
May be u r right, i am dying to find out!
I will test it with a Q-tip. I pointed a flashlight with high brigthness on the sensors now, the left one doesnt seem like a LED... so that option just kinda died
Ok tested it, qtip during the call shows that the proximity sensor is the one in the CENTER.
Used a black fabric for the light sensor... with my finger over the fabric covered the left and right sensors, result: RIGHT sensor is the light sensor!
Leaves: Left sensor.... what is it?
Center: Proximity
Right: Light
Left: ?
spy cam - big brother is watching you!
beats me i hadnt even noticed it!
I would probably guess that the two closest together are a Transmitter/ Receiver pair.
It could be emitting infra-red and using a receiver to detect how far away an object is based upon the light returned.
One way to sometimes 'see' this is to use a normal camera to look at it, if it shows a white spot, there is a good chance it's emitting IR.

Hi, is there a way (xposed or anything else) to use the front camera as proximity sensor?
Because there's a problem with the sensor, it shows that it's always covered
Your sensor is dirty. It has dust behind the glass that got in through the speaker grill.
It can be easily cleaned though. Takes about 15 minutes.
Check my profile and look for threads started by me. There is a guide on how to clean the sensor on that list.
I was using my Cyclop Cree flashlight while inspecting my device and cleaninv camera lens from dust and smudges, and I was wondering if I have not done ang damage to my camera sensor ? Is it even harmfull if I flash my flashlight straight into the camera ? It is basic Cree flashlight and states that if is 168 Lumens.
Thank everyone for your time!!!
