any Dev in xda, help us, please,
Proximity Sensor irritating very much, only black screen during calls.
help me to disable proximity sensor totally(not just for dailer phone calls)
I'm using LineageOS 14.1 by Thargorsson.
googled a lot for that, found many solutions like build.prop, hardware disabler, sensor disabler, moded dailer, etc etc.
moded dailer worked, and all are not worked, and WhatsApp calls also black screen, hence it's better to disable in total device.
please provide any solution.

I have the same problem cause my screen is broken and I want to disable proximity sensor

I am using the T-Mobile US version of the HD2.
Whenever I make a call the dialer screen stops responding to touch, that includes the entire screen, not only the dialer buttons (sometimes if I rub the button it will respond, but most of the times it won't).
If I press the home button during the call the screen starts responding to touch again, but if I go back to the dialing screen its stops working again.
If I end the call using the hard button the dialer screen starts responding to touch again.
I hard reset the phone and the problem disappeared and then after a few days started again.
The proximity sensor works fine during the call and turns off the screen if I place the phone next to my face and turns it on again if I move the phone away from my face.
Anyone has a fix for this problem?
i had the same problem with one of energy's roms, but with all the flashing and different cabs, i never isolated the problem.
flash and rom and install your cabs one by one?
do you have bsb tweaks installed by any chance?
Same problem here, HD2 T-mobile dialer not responding
Same exact problem here.
Using the US stock HD2 T-mobile ROM with HTC sense Today's plugin disable (using spb pocket plus, phone weaver and Pocket Breeze instead).
Once I initiate a call the screen stops responding.
I used Kaiser Tweaks to change the dialer to the "Windows Mobiel Dialer"... now, the screen works fine, but when dialing a number I can't see any of the contact information. Also, with windows mobile dialer the proximity sensor is not working, so my face keeps activating buttons on the phone now.
Need help here!!!
I have BSB installed.
Also have many other cab's installed, so can't tell when or which software caused this.
Also, when tried to enable HTC sense again... the phone crashes... tooke me another 2 hours of reset'ing untill I was able to disable Sense and revert to windows 6.1 today's screen.
Turn off the BsB Tweak "tap time". That causes this problem.

IT WORKED!!!!!!!!!!
The HD2 dialer is working again
Thank you!
Any idea why the WM dialer is not showing the contacts?
The fix worked, but...
That fix worked, the problem is I like the tap delay setting. without it I launch programs by mistake almost all the time while scrolling.
I tried to play with the registry value the fix changes:
HKLM/System/GWE/Touch/Filter/Minimumtaptime
the initial value is 0, the tweak changes it to 30, I tried lowering the value all the way to 10 and still every time the dialer screen stops responding while talking on the phone. It works fine once the value is reset to 0.
Does anyone know how to change the tap delay and stop the problem from happening? The answer might be found if we know why does it only happen in the dialer screen? Maybe there is a registry value for the dialer that is causing a conflict.
Thank you johncmolyneux!!! Enabled this recently to see how it worked and noticed the dialer stop responding, searched the forums and found this. Thanks!
Works like a charm!!
thanks, been looking for that for a long time...
changed BsB tap settings to off, soft reset, and now the HD2 touch screen works again during a call, so I can use the speaker and dialpad
Thanks a lot, Worked like a charm for me! Strange thing to include that tweak in BsB though - maybe works for other models/ROMs..
Heartfelt thanks
I recently updated my stock ROM and encountered this problem. After searching the forums I found this solution. MANY THANKS Mr M!
Hello , I would like to turn off my Mini`s proximity sensor and light sensor , but I couldn`t find out any setting even in the registry editor .
anybody could teach me ?
thank you
I don't know about the Proximity Sensor.. But you can Turn OFF Ambient Light sensor.. In Sence, go to Settings tab->Sound & Display.. Here in Bottom you will get Backlight setting, tap on it.. Then you will see the first Option "Automatically adjust Backlight".. Just uncheck it.. Your Light sensor will be disabled..
I don't know if there any other way..
This didn't work, It merely turns off the backlight adjuster for when you haven;t used your phone in x minutes.
I am currently looking through the registry on the HDMini to try and find the entry...
Has anyone managed to find the registry entry already?
Cheers

So I installed CHT and the CHTeditor (although it is not written for the resolution of my phone), I have managed to look through the settings on the editor but couldn't find the setting. Can you point me in the right direction?

Managed to find the HVGA port for CHT and installed, still can't seem to find the option to turn off the ambient light sensor. I think it's back to searching through the registry.
CHT looks pretty cool though after playing around with it...

sure.long press on screen,add free link,toggle switch.there u will find proximity sensor and proximity relight.
Thanks
I tried both of these, and after adding and turning on the options the phone went crazy and the screen kept activating and de-activating. I managed to turn off the options. But still, during a call the screen de-activates so I can't hang up.
I've gone back to checking the registry and have found a couple of entries which could be useful. I'm testing changing a few now. Will post the results...
You could try to use Lumos, its a nice tool to tune light sensor for oneself.

Hello everyone, I'm going crazy for even I disable this proximity sensor, and someone managed?
Me too... I have a broken proximity sensor... I can't hang up... When I make a call the display goes black and never return to light... Is there a way to kill it forever???
Look at this thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=488991
This is an app, that disables light sensor during calls and also use g-sensor. I have also the problem with proximity sensor (can't hang up after dial), but this app helps me to hang up. After dialing your screen turn off but if you turn your phone to landscape position the screen will turn on again.
It is solution for me.

nice app, thanks! But the feature that the screen turns on in landscape mode does not work on my mini. Do I have to change any setting for that? Also, it says it is possible to have the screen always on. Also that does not work.
similar issue in HTC Aria?
maybe this link for the Aria helps? At least it helped me, I forgot to put back a little rubber cover on the sensor:

Hey guys,
I recently tried the app simply lockscreen, in which there is the "force unlock". Basically, you swipe your hand over the proximity or light sensor (not sure which). Would it be possible to implement this concept into an app to close apps, navigate in the browser, etc? Could be a cool thing to look into!

I tried this. it didn't work I am running cm7 on a mytouch 4g (yes it has a proximity and light sensor)
great! i now want a theremin app using proximity sensors!
Here's a peculiar issue and I'm trying to resolve it.
Whenever a call is made using CM10/CM9 the dialer automatically minimizes in background because Service Provider sends a message saying what discount is available on this call. Probably to show the message, dialer minimizes itself.
I have to go back to the notification drawer, select current call and then go back to the call after hitting okay at the message. This is very annoying, specially when speaker phone is not enabled and I'm unable to drag down the notification drawer because proximity sensor detects my hand too close to the display.
Point is this doesn't happen in stock ROMs, any of them be it ICS/GB. I tried replacing the dialer from stock but its integrated in CM10 framework thus replacing files doesn't help. I tried some dialer apps, they do work by not getting minimized but then I don't really like using them, CM10 dialer or stock dialer looks much better than custom ones.
Probably this issue doesn't happen to much or rather any fellow member here, but would appreciate some input that can help me fix the problem.
I think it's a feature available only on Google pixel phone ... It's possible with some app (without root) improve this skill on LG G6 ... I think it's very comfortable options like scrolling page with finger print sensor !
Thanks In advance for your reply
Did you try this app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ztc1997.fingerprint2sleep ?
Not yet ... I stopped after I read the bad feedback , like it's real slow ecc...
Do you use it ?
Yes, it works but it's kind of annoying that it vibrates every time you touch the sensor, at least to me.
In this app I didn't find the scrolling page function.. and yes the vibrate feedback it's very annoying
