Hey guys,
The normal case is: you call someone and when you take phone from your ear, it automatically turns on.
My s4 doesnt do so anymore.
Where can I turn thid back on again?
Thanks

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 bought a Nexus4 a couple of weeks ago. I constantly got this issue, it will be stuck and not return to the normal screen even I keep pressing the power button. However, if the other side of the call hangs up quickly, it normally works fine. but if it is directed to a voice mail box, it will be stuck forever until I shutdown the phone.
Just wondering has anyone experienced the same issue ?
Have you put a screen protector on it?

It sounds like the proximity sensor on your phone is being blocked you might want to try not using your case and see if its make any difference

Turns out the screen protector is the evil.
Thanks a lot!
I have my phone for about a week now. Before I'm seeing a sceen that shows up when idle the one with clock which stays for about 4 to 5 secs (attached photo) but now i don't see it anymore. Can anyone tell me please how make it show again. I can't find it anywhere on the settings. Or what is that in the first place...

Try waving your hand over the top of the phone when the scree is off. That's how I get it to display. The blue LED lights up first if you did it right.

It works. Air gesture must be On. Thanks.

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.

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?

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.
so I'm on a Google edition rom and when I'm in a call and try to take the phone off my face and do something on it while in call it keeps turning the screen off.. never had a problem multi tasking a phone call and using the phone on TW rom but am having it now.
anyone know a quick fix to this?

I have exactly this problem on my rogers 1337m running jamal's 4.2.2 rom. I thought it was just a faulty proximity sensor.
Sometimes it happens to me because my hand goes over the sensor lol. Just watch where your hand is at and you'll be fine.
