Proximity Sensor manager - Galaxy Note II General

Hello everyone.
The proximity sensor just always turned on. I don't know what program using it. I wish there is a application to view exactly what program using a sensor.
Thank you.

Can you explain a bit further?
Thanks.

Probably quick glance, goto s-motion and see if its turns on in the settings menu

I've had similar issue and it drains the battery quickly. There have been other threads about this too with nothing but a reboot as a fix...

I also have a problem with Quick Glance.
Sometimes it works.
Most of the time, it doesn't.
Q: Is this proximity sensor related to 'Smart Rotation' and 'Smart Stay'?

[REQ] Proximity sensor recalibrator

Could someone make recalibrator like http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=951858 for DZ plz?
Wrong section buddy. And is there anything wrong with your proximity sensor? I have never known a DZ/G2 user to complain about the way it works. Which is why this probably does not exist for our phones

It could be a hardware problem. download an app called AndroSensor and test if your proximity sensor is working at all

Turning off screen when you close the cover.

I saw a cover for the nexus 7 that said it turns the screen off and on with the closing and opening of the screen. I assume it's done with the light sensor. Is there any way to dk it with the gt?

those use the proximity sensor, and we don't have one so unfortunately no there is no way to set that up.
Its not the proximity sensor, its some sort of magnetic sensor. It does it if you have a small magnet in the right place on the case. As we do not have such a sensor on the tab, we cannot do the same thing.
In theory, you could write an app that turns off screen depending on what the light sensor senses

maybe on your 3100 but I installed this app https://play.google.com/store/apps/...51bGwsMSwxLDMsImNvbS5vbWQuYXV0b3NjcmVlbm9uIl0. that uses the proximity sensor to wake the screen and it said there wasn't one on my 3113. All I have is the camera and a light sensor.
suggestion

ok, cool, auto screen on was just the first I had found and it worked on the device I tested it on so I never looked for any others. still no use on my 3113, it says no proximity sensor.

This works, however if you are using screen timeout, its not saving you much since it just turns the screen off, it does not put the device to sleep. It does function as an auto on / off for the screen. I found it very quirky , sometimes it works when I close the cover, sometimes it does not. Unfortunately there is no sensor calibration. I want to test it to see if it actually uses extra battery in order to keep the sensor alive. Also, its a bit flaky if you use some of the advanced features like turning on and off airplane mode.
Thanks. I didn't know about the magnet.

No need to write such an app. There are several on the play store that do exactly that.
However I've tried them all and I can' get any to work properly using CM10. Others may have better luck.
Use smartcover from android market. It works very well.

Problem with the proximity sensor

The proximity sensor stopped working. When I'm making a phone call the screen is still blank when removed from the head.
Quick glance only work when I try it in the demo.
Is there any settings I might have missed or is the proximity sensor broken?
I got this problem too

Battery drain from Android System

Do you also have this?
The consuption related to Android System seems to be mainly due to LGE Gravity Sensor.

It's the knock on feature that causes that "drain"

@Carter07
Which app is that you use for monitoring battery usage?
Edit:
Nevermind, already found it.
Thanks

Unfortunately I still see Android System draining battery.
Tested from a full charged battery.
Disable the knock-on feature and try again.

I see I slight difference when I disabled the movement settings. Yes. Knock on keeps the sensors on and uses the juice.
I don't care cuz I love the feature. One if my main reasons buying G2

up to now... I don't think it is visible AFAIK.
And if you try to google out there, there is/are app(s) which manipulate this function, by keep screen on, and make the color of the screen turn black (as if it is off). And it is working only with OLED display.
I never use/try it, because I don't really like the idea with my N3, whereby I have the s-view attached already.
