The screen will turn off because of the proximity sensor checking how close to your face it is, Anything possibly covering the proximity sensor on the top part of the phone? Have you changed anything on your phone recently when this started happening? If you are running a CM rom, i think there is something in cyangen settings that you can tweak.

Running sense now,It hasnt happen yet,maby the sensor is little twisted any way to calibrate it?

I think this may be because the phone is thinking it's connected to a car charger.
Mmm no it doesn't seem to be that. Any more ideas?

Had a phone do this, it was indeed because of a card charger, I never found a way to undo the problem but after a battery pull the problem persisted for a few more calls then went away. Sorry I couldn't be of more help. There is an app in the market where you can toggle between speaker and handset. called settings profile, this may be a workaround for you untill it smooths itself out. Sorry i couldnt be of more help

all backwards button

I was wondering if anyone else has ever experienced this issue. I am currently running the latest cyan 7 nightly but i do recall it happening 2 other times on cyan 7 RC4 and RC1. I am not at all saying it only happens on cyan, i am just showing when and how it happened. All 3 times it happened my battery was below 10% and i restarted my phone to have the issue occur. It seems as if every button on the screen would choose the exact mirrored opposite of itself on the screen. If i would press the phone icon on adw the default on the other side wich happens to be internet browser would launch. If i pulled down on the notification bar the app drawer would open and so on and so on. the only thing that was regular was when i would press an option in the main menu such as wifi or location, basically anything that didnt have an option next to it that it could switch to. after a few minutes i restarted the phone again to have the issue go away as fast as it started. It was not only in adw for those wondering it was anything that had an option next to it, such as pressing favorites in the browser and it would launch whatever is opp of it, settings i think im not positive at the moment. Oh well i just figured i would share some of my story with all of u in case it somehow starts a topic or even some how helps somebody out in any way. thanks, veritas

i know what you mean. I had that happen too. It didn't happen anymore after I flashed to another ROM. I'm on CM7 RC4

I work for a cell phone repair company and we recently had a G2 come in with heavy water damage. after doing the water damage treatment the phone powered on, everything working fine.
I powered it off to put my SIM into it to test the call functionality and when it powered back up the entire touchscreen was backwards, even the softkeys at the bottom.
we replaced the digitizer and that fixed the issue, so maybe T-Mobile or HTC will warranty it if its a bad digi

Turns on but dead screen

I had flashed a rom and then decided to go back to the rooted 2.2.1. After a while I started to have issues where the screen wouldn't come on from wake. After a battery pull and a reboot same thing. Then the screen would not come on at all. The phone boots and the hard buttons light up as well as the led. Anyone else have a similar situation? Is it bricked or is it possible to fix?

I have had the same problem although my screen works again when I pull the battery and restart. I am a little concerned If this has anything to do with the chip failures being discussed in the general forum.

Id get it replaced. Sounds defective.
It's bricked... get an RMA asap.

Led wont turn off

Hey guys obviously I'm having a problem that my green/red led doesn't shut off it just continues to stay on. I was wondering of there is a way I can turn off led notifications or disable the led all together? I'm running cm7.
Thanks in advance

And I don't mean just like turn it off through settings, because that does not work. Is there any way to actually turn it off through terminal or adb?

Dont mean to sound harsh - when did you get it wet?
That would make so much more sense but I haven't put it to test really with water. It just started happening out if nowhere
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA App
lol. Notice how I didn't ask you "IF" you got it wet, but "when"?
I see this all the time. All it takes is a drop of rain or steam from the shower.
You have the same problem with different roms? 99% of the time something like that is water damage or some other hardware issue.
Also, there's no way to do it with ADB.

Screen wake during call

Something weird is happening during a phone call. While I'm talking I'll pull the phone away from my head and the screen won't turn on, ever. Even when I want to end the call I have to press the power button and then end call after the screen turns on. Doesn't matter what ROM I'm on. Also a buddy who isn't even rooted has the same problem. I'm hoping it just a stupid setting.
Any ideas?

Same problem here.. even on a fresh room install.. so I'm afraid it is not a settings issue

Do you guys have a case for it? Maybe the sensor is covered somehow.
Sent from my SM-N900V using Tapatalk
Yes I have a case but I had the case since I got the phone and it only recently started doing this
Sent from my SM-N900V using Tapatalk
Took the case off and tried nothing. Does it go by a light sensor or the gyro?
Sent from my SM-N900V using Tapatalk
No case here either. Very strange

Mine started do this as well. After phone call pull the phone away and have to hit power button to turn screen on.

Happened to me and I found the solution on another thread. Sounds stupid but it worked for me. Blow into the ear piece. I used a compressed air spray can but it may work with just your mouth. Apparently some dust gets in front of the proximity detector inside the phone next to the ear piece. This removed it. Give it a shot.
