Hello,
I'm writing you this thread to expose my issue with my Samsung I 9505.
I'm using the new CM12 5.0 and my kernel is the Alucard. I changed the kernel 2 weeks ago.
The rom goes perfectly, except that I have 2 issues, 1 new and 1 older that I can't fix.
1: with the new CM12 rom, when the phone is not awake, sometimes the colour of the screen goes green. It only vanishs when I adjust the luminosity of the screen, then it's back to normal.
2: for almost 6 months, I have an issue when someone phones me. At the end when I want to hang out, the screen doesn't wake up, so, I can't hang out by myself. Moreover, after a call, the phone doesn't switch on. I have to push the power button, I hear a little noise of unlocking, and then when I push once again the button, the screen light up.
I hope you'll be able to resolve my issue

Hello good folks,
I would like a bit of help with sorting my phone out. As of Thursday morning (2 AM or so) my phone has a black screen. The phone switches on, the touchscreen works (I can unlock it, put it to silent, hold the power key and tap the places on screen that would normally switch it off to do just that), the volume keys work, I can receive calls, the back light works.
Everything is as it should be, but I cant see a damn thing!
I should note that this happened once before, about a month ago and a few hours later it was back to normal. Also, I have noticed over the past few months a very small black circle at the top edge of the screen, about half a centimetre in diameter.
Please help!
Kindest regards.
It's the first time I read such an issue, your screen's probably defective.
To eliminate a probable OS issue, does the bootloader appear flawlessly ?
No, nothing appears at all. The screen is completely black at all times!
Your screen is malfunctioning, I don't know what's causing it and I don't know if you can fix it yourself either.
I think you are better off sending it back, if still under warranty.
Otherwise, ... ?
This just happened to me NOW....I'm waiting hopefully it will fix itself as i hear the HD2 heals itself LOL
I just noticed the issue today. When I tried making a phone call, the screen went completely black, and when I tap the screen, power button and volume keys it doesnt show any display.
Communication works because I can talk with the person I called. I also tried the other way around by calling my Nexus 4, and after answering it the display also goes out.
It only comes back after the call ends and you have to hit the power button to make it lit up. Did a factory reset and it didn't fix it....
Is this a known bug in 4.2.2?
Did some research online. And I saw this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2001861
Found out that the issue is with screen protectors blocking the proximity sensor.
I recently put one on my Nexus 4. Just the cheap ones from local vendors here. I just had to cut the upper left corner.
SOLVED! :good:
Hello, I have a problem with my LG G2 VS980 by verizon.
There are two problems depending on preloaded rom
1 The display shuts down immediately when call to someone. (after the conversation has will not turn on)
or
2 When someone call to me, after a conversation I can not unlock the screen (either the knock on, or by power button - appears on the screen and immediately turns off).
I've tested all the roms that are available. The one who runs without problem with the display there is a rom by HeatshiverSX - 4.3.1. The problem is that this rom has problem with the rotation of the screen.
Are you able to tell what's going on? Could someone help / advise? Thanks!
Anyone ?
LG G2 proximity sensor causes screen and touch problems during conversations

Did you manage to solve it by now?
If not, it seems that @Bam9 manged to solve it by a firmware update as he reported here.
It seems that there are two similar issues in LG G2 which are both caused by the proximity sensor which causes screen and touch problems during conversations:
The screen stays on and the touch buttons in the dialer (speaker, add call, mute, etc...) aren't responsive.
(This issue was already reported by @athorax here)
The screen turn off and goes blank while in conversation.
(This issue was already reported by @madafis here)
In both of these situations the only quick way to end a call is to pull down the status and notifications bar and hang up from there.
Thanks to @Bam9 and @EtherBoo , who suggested to clear the proximity sensor from the outside and squeeze the top left corner of the phone, I tried to clean it and put some stress on it - and it worked!
I have a glass screen protector (which don't block the proximity sensor), and I am rooted and using CyanogenMod 11 ROM.
I used ioroot to root and AutoRec, which comes with TWRP 2.7.0.0, to install CyanogenMod ROM.
However, going back to stock ROM (in my case, LG G2 D802, it's D80220C) won't help since the issue still exists.
What I'm sure is that it was pretty much okay in the beginning, and the situation became worse and worse - occurring randomly, until it arrived to a situation in which I can't use the phone properly during conversation.
Now that I discovered that I can put some stress on the proximity sensor it seems that I have a hardware rather than a software issue.
Hello XDA,
I have a weird problem going on with my Note 3. I had an issue where my screen would not shut off during calls so I immediately figured I'd test the proximity sensor with some debugging app and also the built-in service menu. I went ahead and did that and noticed it was sort of working but one of the values (the main one that ranges from 0.0 to 8.0) stayed at 0.0 and didn't change. I did some research and used an app that I believe recalibrated it and it began to work perfectly… EXCEPT, when the screen goes off during a call and SHOULD be locked from touch events I can still touch the screen and it is responsive, meaning even thought the screen is black I can end the call, mute it etc granted I touch the right area seeing as I can't see anything. Another thing that's going on that leads me to believe this is some sort of software bug is, when the screen is turned off due to the takeover setting, when I press the home button to turn it back on, it turns back on BUT the front app is lowered and i am brought to the home screen as if the screen was on and I hit it. Weird huh?
Any help would be appreciated…

Hi, anyone have issues with galaxy s8 when making/receiving calls ? My S8 was pre-ordered and on the first day of usage im faced with this issue, when making call or receiving phone randomly lights on display (once) and genlty randomly vibrates (as you press home button or nav button), then im take away phone from ear and put it back to ear display turns off, sometimes it keep turned off as normaly but sometimes it lights on again and vibrates, so i have to do previous steps or if ignore that issue than display turns off after some time and when im take away phone from ear to end call phone is locked and display won't light up until press lock button. Also im noticed that when im lock phone or even take it in hand (fingers touches both curved sides of display) phone also gently vibrates and turns from AOD to lock screen, this issue is also randomly. Some times AOD screen suddenly goes bright and than fades like it should be. After two weeks of chatting with samsung and store support im was send it to "service", they tested phone and after 10 days im received phone with status "no problems detected, software reflashed" but issues still not gone. And im can't replace it with new one because store refuses to replace it and says that they don't replace devices with software issues. Now im stuck and don't know what to do.
P.S. in *#0*# menu proximity sensor ADC values randomly keep changing even if nothing is in front of sensor, values are between 79-125 and when completely put finger on sensor values is 16368
Same issue here. Not sure why.
same for me too, international dual sim version s8
I have little bit different issue related to light sensor. My phone doesn't turn off the screen and locks in a pocket or if I close light screen by hands.

I have the same issue (also the oversensitive home button issue too).
I have a similar issue. But my screen never lights up. Neither during a call or when on the desk, for example. But during calls it sometimes vibrates as if I hard pressed the home button even though the screen is still off and I haven't pressed anything with my face, nor have I received any notifications. It doesn't seem to happen once every minute either (some phones notify you of every passing mine during a call).
It's not a big deal for me, just kind of curiously annoying.

Check in settings on ambient display, pocket mode, etc. Or maybe a cache wipe and reboot will solve.
Like Settings-Display-Screen Mode
-Keep screen turned on/off
Thanks to Samsung and Consumer Rights Protection Centre, together we forced store to replace phone. It was a factory deffect, so anyone who has similar problem im advice to replace phone.
