Does anyone know if there is a way to adjust the proximity sensor.
It's proving a problem for my wife who uses the phone. When she's on a call the phone is intermittently sensing if she's holding it to her ear.
Hence being a capactive screen, when her cheek brushes the screen during a call the other end either hears DTMF or gets cut off by it touching the end call.
I called her yesterday and kept getting random DTMF digits sent to me, then I got sut off.
I was watching her use the phone and the screen was de-activiting (correctly going blank) for part of the call then coming back on, this would happen several times during one call.
Is this a hardware issue or software bug. Has anyone else suffered this problem?
Also happened to me a few times touching end call wih my cheek, really annoying.
Anyone else having the same problem with the proximity sensor intermittently not working during a call?
I had that problem on the old 1.43 ROM but it was fixed when I upgrade to 1.48.
I have this problem and I constantly have to call back and say sorry to my customers and blame it on the phone...
I have reported several errors to HTC and all i get back is "Take it to the retailer and get it changed, it must be a hw error", annoying as hell
1.48 not yet official in sweden.
TouchLockPro
You can try TouchLockPro, it has an InCallTweak, using the GSensor. Searching for accessing programmatically the Proximity Sensor though, for more options (e.g unlock by Proximity Sensor). It works on HTC Leo, people confirmed.
Thanks ZuinigeRijder.
I've tried the software and I think it might work.
I loaded the software and it worked without any further config I presume that is currect.

Indeed, TouchLockPro detects itself the available sensors and uses the available ones. Of course you can configure detailed things (via pressing the BattClock), but the defaults are already the sensible ones
Thanks again ZuinigeRijder.
Just been doing some more testing and occasionally the screen flashes on for a brief moment during a call. Could it be the proximity sensor trying to turn on the screen? Or is it the G sensor not being very accurate?
In the application is there a way for me to adjust the G-Sensor angles that activate the screen off? i.e. 45+ Degrees activate ??
Or are there any other adjustments I could make during testing??
I found one more problem... I checked it several times....
If u make a call using portrait orientation of phone app (Rotated using BSB Tweak). Proximity sensor doesnt work at all.... i made a while lyin on the bed and no matter wat i tried it wasnt turning off the screen....
Then i kept it in portrait position for a few seconds den proximity started working again...
Is there anyone who can confirm me with this problem.... or is this issue only with my HD2
Hi,
How proximity sensor should work in X10?
Apparently mine doesn't work.
While I talk screen is not blank and I wondering how to enable or adjust proximity sensor to disable touch screen during conversation.
Any ideas?
Cheers!
edit: never mind, i found solution forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=736654
So I read in the net about the proximity sensor issue, that the phone is turning on by itself. I did not experience such problem at all, but I do have a problem with the proximity sensor: when I'm on a call, in the most time the screen does not turn off, so I accidentally pres "mute microphone" or turn on "speaker phone", which is very annoying. This is with the 2 OTA updates patched already, was the same before them too.
Do you have such problems, like I do? Anything that we can do to fix this issue?
Sounds like the common proximity sensor problem....
I don't put my phone in my pocket and I hate the feature that the phone turns off when sensor is barely covered. I've done this many times with my hands or fingers and it's very annoying. Turns on, turns off 1 second later..
My phone is rooted and I'll edit anything to fix this problem. Anyone know how?
Many thanks
I am also looking for a solution to disable the proximity sensor.

Hello,
i´m looking for a solution for my proximity sensor problem. After drop down and screen replacement, i recognized that the sensor doesn´t work anyomore like he normally should.
The problem is well known, but i didn´t want to tear my nexus down. With the app Proximity Screen Off Lite it was possible to disable the sensor, but now, after updating to 5.0 it doesn´t work anymore.
I tried lots of other proximity apps, but none of them are working.
So, can anyone help me? (Phone is rooted)
