Methods that worked for me.
Method 1.
Blow Air it will solve your prob hopefully.
Method 2.
go to samsung code *#0*#. then SENSORS and Read your Proximity sensor values.
<<< DECISION >>>>>
####Calibration isnot needed if ####
.
your phone doesnt vibrate in normal but does so when u physically put your finger on the Sensor.
#### Calibration needed if ####
.
your phone is vibrating in this menu no matter what, you put your finger on the sensor or not
Follow these steps
1. download Android Terminal from store
2. type these commands to calibrate automatically
$ su
# echo 0 > /sys/devices/virtual/sensors/proximity_sensor/prox_cal
# echo 1 > /sys/devices/virtual/sensors/proximity_sensor/prox_cal
Reboot and see if it works.go to *#0*# and check if it continuously vibrating or only does so when you put your finger on the SENSOR.
<<<< IF Continuously Vibrating Follow these steps>>>>
you need to manually put values in ur /efs/prox_cal.it Reads Hexadecimal value. so you have to convert your decimal values into HEX.
##### FIND YOUR Decimal Values and pushing them into /efs/prox_cal ######
Method : finding two values for calibration . offset + normal value.
##.. FINDING OFFSET ######
cat /sys/devices/virtual/sensors/proximity_sensor/prox_cal
note down the values it returns.. mine is 5,64,100.. you only need the 1st value which is 5.
### FINDING NORMAL STATE ######
cat /sys/devices/virtual/sensors/proximity_sensor/state
note down the value if returns. mine is 64
now ADD OFFSET value + Normal Value
5 + 64 = 69
Convert in Hexadecimal which is 45.
<<<<<<<<<<< Pushing the value in /efs/prox_cal >>>>>>>>>>>>>>
# echo -en $ '\x45' > /efs/prox_cal
then
# chown system:system /efs/prox_cal
# chmod 644 /efs/prox_cal
# sync
# Reboot
All done. after that go to *#0*# then SENSORS and move your finger on the sensor, yout phone will Vibrate only when you put your finger on the sensors.
Manual method worked for me.
ENJOY.
NOTE: I am not a developer. i was just stuck with this problem for so long so now i found it from "mcelicalderon". who posted this method some where.
Thank you ! That worked for me too
Pleasure is all mine

thanks
i've had this problem a long time now. it worked fine with stock rom but as soon as i changed it, it went wrong. unrooted it and back to stock and it worked again. Been looking all over for a solution. tried air blowing and other non working solutions. the *#0*# did not run on my phone either. but after follwing this guide it got fixed. but insted of typing the long cat command in terminal i used ES file explorer and navigated to the right files and opened them.
so thank you for this guide to fix this irretating problem
hello everybody, i have an s4 19505 with 4.4.3 rom (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2544474) in the rom´s description, it says that this rom hasn´t got any bugs, but when i call, my screen turns to black and i need lo lock and unlock the phone for hang up the call:crying:, I need help, is the calibration of the sensor? any .zip to fix this?
lot of thanks
Its for the proximity sensor. I dunno if you have this option in AOSP but in STOCK ROMs it's. You only have to check one option of the settings for solve that:
- Go to Settings -> My device -> Call -> Turn off screen during calls.
Look here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2208440&page=2
or
in terminal or adb
$ su
$ echo 0 > /sys/class/sensors/proximity_sensor/prox_cal
reboot
Hello, I have tried this (echo 0 and echo 1).
I'm on CM 11 with a Zerolemon case.
It still doesn't work. When I am on Rom stock 4.2, it works fine.
The screen goes black on call If I push the "Home" buttons, proximity sensor works fine. And when I try to come back on the call window, it turn black (whatever the 4.4.x, I've tried today, this bug exists not only in CM11).
Any idea to help me ?
Thanks for all.
edit :
When I try (the 74 value is just the one working - don't know the right value in my case)
[email protected]:/ $ su
[email protected]:/ # echo -en $ '\x74' > /efs/prox_cal
[email protected]:/ # chown system:system /efs/prox_cal
[email protected]:/ # chmod 644 /efs/prox_cal
[email protected]:/ # sync
[email protected]:/ # reboot

Click to collapse
When I do that, the proximity sensor works well when I push the home button during a call. But the screen is still black on the phone call.
Edit 2nd
I've tried this : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1626611 ... Problem always here !
Hey guys,
Any of you have similar issue? Whenever calling / receiving a call the screen won't recover from blackscreen. Only way is to turn off the Proximity sensor in call settings. Sorry for posting here, couldn't post on dev forum (posts < 10).
Using the following setup:
Twrp (2.8.7.0-ks01lte)
cm-12.1-2015.10.19-UNOFFICIAL-temasek-ks01lte-V18.0.zip
arter97-kernel-i9506-9.0.zip
arter97-ks01ltexx-cm-patch-2.0.zip
pa_gapps-modular-pico-5.1-2015.04.18-signed.zip
flashed in this order.
Thank you for the help
Here r link
http://www.androidlegend.com/how-to-perform-proximity-sensor-calibration-on-any-samsung-phone/
Hello again,
Thank you for the replay The post didn't helped to solve the problem but found this instead:
http://forum.cyanogenmod.org/topic/81988-black-screen-during-call-jfltexx/page__st__20
First step - Doing the manual recalibration:
$ su
$ echo -en $'\x74' > /efs/prox_cal
$ chown system:system /efs/prox_cal
$ chmod 644 /efs/prox_cal
$ sync
Reboot your phone.
After rebooting, please test, this will make the proximity sensor work, however, it will only work in a very near distance.
(I was so happy it worked so stopped at this point)
Now, you should do this, to fix permanently with the default proximity distance:
Second step - Fix the proximity distance:
$ su
$ echo 0 > /sys/class/sensors/proximity_sensor/prox_cal
$ echo 1 > /sys/class/sensors/proximity_sensor/prox_cal
Reboot your phone.
Hope it helped for those who suffered with this problem.
Thank you again!
Ohkay so this gps bug is annoying... It always searching for gps..
I tried sultan rom as well.. But the problem persist there as well..

If gps is still not functioning correctly after a clean flash of sultan's rom, it may be a firmware issue, since sultan's rom does not contain firmware.
You can try flash one of the firmwares from http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-one/general/firmware-modem-oneplus-one-lollipop-t3300907 if the issue is indeed firmware.

download fastergps from playstore - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.fastergps&hl=en
open app and choose your continent and region (must grant su permission)
close out and open GPS Test app, go to settings and clear then update agps
then see if it connects, might take a few minutes

Backup your original GPS file. Copy and paste my file's contents and save it. Then reboot. Hope it works.
If you live in Europe then remove hash from Europe's line.
If all else fails, fastboot flash COS 13.1. I had a GPS issue, along with people not being able to hear me in calls nor me hear them.
Fastboot flash COS 13.1
Fastboot flash twrp 2.8.7.0
Wipes
Flash custom ROM, kernel, mods, etc
Worked like a charm for me!
There's a thread somewhere in the general section that has all the COS 13.1 files with a simple .bat file that'll flash it all automatically.

What version of your firmwire ?
What type of your Gapps ?
I was using sultan last build & mini opengapps 20160718 & mod gps.conf there is no problem.

Try update Google Play Service version 9.4.52 (438-1277739847)
Use App 'Disable Service'
Try to checked
FusedLocationService
GcmService
GeocodeService
GeofenceProviderService
GoogleLocationService
GoogleLocationManagerService
Setting > location , Mode : High Accuracy
Reboot OPO
Use app 'GPS Test'
Clear AGPS
Update AGPS.
Good Luck.

This model is listed in Sugar MTK. Does anyone know the status of the bootloader? What's the status of fastboot functionality? I can port twrp for this phone model. We have access to the recovery, just need to know the status on those 2 things. I don't have the phone so I don't know and can't test. I do have the Idol4 and an Alcatel Tetra I was able to sneak root on. Also, does anyone know the status of updates? As in how many updates have been released, anyone have any of those update files?

Hey Anyone still poking at this bear, the work I did for the 6060C could be easily achieve for this device as well. However, like @PizzaG pointed out, not every developer willing to help will have this device. Long story short, no device + no testers = no development.
Please Kindly STOP deleting my links Mods. It's rude, disrespectful, you give no warning, reason or heads up and if you really want me to take my posts, free software and self to another site, KEEP IT UP!!
