I there any settings or something to adjust proximity sensor? I was trying to turn off screen covering sensor with thumb, but.. no effect.
Does it need any setting or my phone is faulty?
I noticed the same thing on my phone today.
The proximity sensor doesn't work if you've switched off the Automatically adjust backlight option in Settings>Sound & Display>Backlight. There doesn't seem to be any way around this as the proximity sensor doesn't have its own option.
Are you in a call? You need to be calling/receiving a call for it to work.
I agree, I think you need to be in a call for the proximity sensor to work properly.
For me it works fine. And i don´t hade automatic backlight on.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
That's interesting because I can toggle my proximity sensor (whilst in a call) by toggling the automatic backlight. That option must be linked to something else as well.
Screen goes black
I do have the same behavior, when I make a call the phone's screen goes black automatically so if I need to press any key have to press send to get my screen back, then use the keypad, nonsense, is anyone having the same issue ?
for me, the proximity sensor doesn't work at all. I have the automatic backlight setting and yet it still doesn't work. any idea why?
SP300
I just found the solution, I have got the screen protector on "The Original HTC SP300" and is causing the screen to go blank when you do a phone call, If a remove it a little bit from the top left corner and make a call works as spec.
For people having issues with the proximity sensor (eg. not turning on/off while in a call)
there is a toppic at modaco with a calibration procedure that seemed work nicely to everyone.
http://android.modaco.com/content/z...-sensor-not-working-screen-wont-come-back-on/
basically you should go to the dialer and dial *983*0#
test your light and proximity sensors and then the calibration button
Just like title， Note3 proximity sensor is dead, the screen keep light during calls，I checked as follow：
put *#0*# ,
proximity sensor
proximity:0.0 ADC:0(0.0.0)
TSP color ID:01
Lights Sensor
light sensor:0 lux
light sensor: 0,0,0,0,0,0,(R,G,B,W)
Put *#7353# proximity sensor
proximity sensor was display "release"
light sensor was display "1"
what's wrong with it
And I did try to fix the phone
1) Default setting reset -> nothing
2) Factory reset -> nope
3) Can air -> nope
4) I change the new lights sensor -> nope
Got the digitize r replaced for lg g2 d802
since then, proximity sensor n light sensor are not working properly.. i lost the automatic brightness feature n whenever i make a call the screen turns off n doesnt turn on until the other person ends the call..
found a way to disable proximity sensor but it needs xposed..
m on Dirty unicorns rom n Xposed makes it unstable..
anyone knows any other software way to Disable Proximity sensor ?????
Ansar:
I m using maxpro m2 4gb varient.Recently, my phone has been having a problem with the proximity sensor during calls. When I finish a call, or want to look at my screen, the screen does not turn on by itself so I need to put my finger at proximity sensor then screen to light up or else the screen still goes black. This is very annoying! When i turn off ADAPTIVE BRIGHTNESS feature in Display options my problem resolved.what is this problem?? Am i only facing??
I also tested my sensors it is working and also my display is not covered with tampered glass etc..
