[Q] Proximity sensor & Camera on Froyo

Hi.
I was using 2.1 (I5801DXJG5 - Ecclair) without any problems.
When i update to 2.2 (I5800XXJPM & I5801ZFJPE, tried both),
Proximity sensor dont work during calling... But under Sensors in *#0*# mode, it works fine... It just doesnt work during calling..
And builtin cam crashes time to time.
Any clues guys?
Thanks in advance.

ok... i dont what i did... but the proximity sensor works after few calls. i was thinking, every time i make a call, i'll press the power button to go screen off mode.. but after few calls, proximity sensor works...
as for camera... i turn off the use sensor aiding under location and security settings.. and cam works fine...

[Q] Proximity Sensor Bug

Hi!
Every time I receive a call, the screen shuts down due to the proximity sensor.
But after I take it away from my ears, the screen doesn't light up.
This is not a sensor bug, I checked.
Can it be due to an outdated modem?
Is anyone else facing the same problem, and has anyone found a fix yet?

Dear id74em8,
TRY THIS..this should hopefully fix your issue with the proximity sensor on the phone
1. Go to Dialpad.
2. Dial *#*#7769#*#*
3. A proximity sensor calibration window will pop up.
4. Press “Start”
5. The sensor will be automatically calibrated, a message will appear “ Calibration Good”
HIT THANKS IF THIS WORKS
Cheers !!!

Proximity sensor not working after update to mm

As in the title proximity sensor stopped working during call, but only when taking from the ear. It don't wake up screen anymore. Anybody facing same problem? Is there a solution?

me too, all other sensor works except proximity that works one tiem then nothing

Waiting for asus fix the proximity sensor can be disabled from dialer settings to avoid the black call screen.

For me too!! It's very annoying . i have used xposed "sensor Disabler" module as a work around to completely disable proximity sensor!

I had the same on Android 5. Double tap the power button wakes it up.

Need Help related to proximity sensor

I am using zenphone 2 laser ZE550KL and yesterday my touch pad got crack... and thats why my proximity sensor not working properly as broken glass is on the sensor... so i wnt to disable is completely... i mean it is like my phone doesn't have proximity sensor... any guys help me out here.... the only solution i have in my mind is to open my phone's motherboard and remove the proximity sensor... But i don't wnt to do that... i wnt to fix it by only software... plz help guys.

You should bring your phone to ASUS for glass fixing
If you using LineageOS, go to Settings => Buttons => Turn on End call by Power Button. This may be helping for a time

Dude i don't have problems with calling... but my double tap to wakup not working also when i am using third party apps like messenger imo etc my screen goes completely black... then i have only one option to restart my device

You can find the proximity sensor file in your root folder, maybe if you delete it or renamed it, it will disable the sensor.

Where..

Disabling the proximity sensor

Got my screen replaced at a local shop after it cracked.
But now the proximity sensor is not working properly as it always detects that it is covered.
Proximity testing apps show that the sensor always shows the value as 0.0 (covered).
can someone help me on how to disable the proximity sensor completely as i face black screen during calls and can't record/hang-up/put on speaker....
I'm rooted and running cosmic os 7.1.1 so xposed is not a solution
Need help disabling it.

:bump:
