Hi all!
I'm on simply honey. 5 and having a really annoying problem.
When I get a call, the answering bar keeps moving around when I turn the phone around.
Is there a way in disabling that without disabling it in the entire system?

Before 2.2.1, there used to be a setting that would leave your screen always on while charging. Anyone know where that setting has gone, can't seem to find it anymore? I know there is a screen always on app on the market, but I'm hesitant to use it.

Well I've been running gingervolt on my phone and it has been running fine until now. Today my softkeys won't light up anymore unless I go to settings and click on the screen brightness that's when they come on but once it times out and goes black they won't come back on when I unlock it. Also when I received a call and slide the screen up for some reason I can't hear anything and the phone hangs up. Does anyone know what can I do to fix this issue? Thanks. Version 2.3.4 running gingervolt 1.3

This happened to me the first night gv 1.3 was released. It went away the next day though. Re-flash?
Ok. I will reflash and hopefully that would fix it

This happens on my phone once in a while. I just open up adjbrightness and problem solved.

This will sound weird but what I do when this happens (usually a restart of device) is bring the phone's screen to my laptop screen momentarily, or just hit it with a beam of light from my 700 lumen flashlight It's quick and easy

haha, very MacGyver...Going into Settings > Display and toggling auto brightness on/off would probably accomplish the same thing.

Alright guys I reflashed it And it fixed the soft key issues but im still having problems answering the phone. When I slide it up to answer i can't hear anything... Timer keeps going but I have to hang up and call them back... Sometimes it just hangs up when I try answering. Does anyone have any other suggestions? Thanks a lot for reading my post.

With everything that you've tried, it's starting to sound like it might be a hardware issue. If that's the case, you might have to send it in to get it fixed.
So should i restore to stock and see if that fixes the problem? I guess either way I need to restore to stock if I need to send it off to get fixed right?

Hi. Can i ask how can i fix my sensor for calling. Everytime i call i doesnt turn my phone into black screen. Help please.
Im on cm7 rc5.7

What ROM is it? CM7 ROMS sometimes doing this for me. In the call settings there is an option called always use proximity or something similar. Try to check it.
Every time I call somebody my phone would turn off the screen automatically it would still call them so I have to turn it back on by pressing the power button to use the phone again but with my old phone it had this thing called proximity sensor where it would turn off the screen when I put it up to my ear
Is there a setting like that on the note 4? I searched like on my other phone I have to open the phone app and then call settings but on this one it just settings and looked but cant find anything

theres absolutely a proximity sensor, it's only disabled in speakerphone or if you switch away from the phone app

I know you're trying to help but I don't think you understand what I am looking for and trying to do....
I am looking for an option either the exact option name as of my other phone or a similar one
to not automatically turn off the screen right as soon as I press the call button and only turn off the screen when I put it up to my ear
The exact option name on my other phones is “Turn on proximity sensor”
I have looked in the phone settings I found nothing saying that but now you're saying you tried it and works? What did you do? What are you talking about?...
Sent from my SM-T210R using XDA Free mobile app
I cant find the option but mine is doing it by default yes. so i think you have a bad sensor

So you're saying yours stays on when placing a call? But when you put it up to your face it turns off?
Edit: now my screen doesn't even turn off anymore it stays on even tried putting it up to my ear and it still stays on... I have to deal with this tomorrow...

That is how the phone works. You need to go back to stock with Odin. Root then try. Something might of got messed up in your flash. Also make sure no mods are turned on.
NOTE 4

Thanks but figured it out! (I'm a... something haha)
The problem with the phone not turning off at all while making a call anymore was because I had head phones in I took those off and it turned off (why it doesn't turn off when you put it up to your ear when you have headphones beats me...)
Now for my original problem I totally spaced and just figured out a few mins ago but I have like a temp screen protector over the whole device and its covering up all the sensors and front facing camera so I took that off and the proximity sensor feature works now lol so thanks guys for replying haha

Is anybody else having this same issue. I can turn on auto brightness in the notification shade and minute or two later, if that long, it unchecks itself. Any ideas what is causing this?
I was having this issue, no idea what causes it. Factory reset solved it for me.
