Well I got an interesting one...
I was in a phone call and my finger accidentally touch the top right corner of the screen, where the light sensor is. What happens is quite weird. The phone, if on speakerphone, will disconnect from speaker. Second I have had the phone reboot itself also. Very strange.
Anyone seen this?

So both of those things happen if you touch the light sensor? Does it do it if your phone is on your ear?

Often i have to press to or maybe three times on some buttons before the phone recognise it as a press. Especially when i press the end call button.
It seems like the phone has some problems with touch sensitivty.
Anyone else have this problem?
Nope, mine seems good.
I do have the CM induced right edge of the screen issue though.
The problem with end call
Hi Fenrisulven_,
To me, the bug with the end call button is experienced because of the screen off feature on call... When you want to end call, you take it down from your ear, but it takes just a little more time for the touch interface to go on than the screen to switch on.
If anything the touch sensitivity seems maybe a little too high to me
I find the lock screen gets a little 'sticky' though.
Hi,
I've been using the Sony Xperia T now for a while and something bothers me.
When I am in a call, my phone tends to put the caller on hold, switch to speakerphone, or just end the conversation alltogether. My idea is that the touchscreen doesn't lock when I am in a conversation and I press either of these buttons with my ear/head. Is anyone familiar with this issue and is it something I can fix myself? I've looked through the settings on my phone but couldn't find anything to help me here.
This issue doesn't happen every call, but I would estimate it does half the calls. Especially when I'm answering calls.
Thanks.
Never had any problems.

I just checked it. It kicks in at 2/2,5 cm's. So that's good then?

Not sure, mine activates about 70mm away.
Hi all,
I've come across a couple of problems with the phone that I've put down to manufacturing, but I'm not really seeing anyone else complain about them. I'd just like to see if anyone else is experiencing these issues or if I should have my phone replaced under warranty.
Issue 1: Microphone.
During a call, people can hear me clearly, but if I switch to speakerphone (or use an app like Skype or Viber, which usesspeakerphone for video calls), they have trouble hearing me. I know there is an issue where the mic stops working for some people, but mine is still working...only I sound very faint to the other person. If I bring my face right up to the phone and speak, they can hear me somewhat clearly, but it defeats the purpose holding it to my face when I'm in a video call.
Issue 2: Screen touches during a call.
I've noticed that when in a regular call, the screen turns off when I bring the phone to my face, and turns back on as I pull the phone away, which is fine. The problem is though, that while the screen is off and pressed to my ear, shortly after the light of the screen turns back on and it seems I've been pressing things with my ear, e.g. pulled down the notification shade, opened an app on my home screen or opened my app drawer, etc. Is anyone else noticing the screen turning back on mid-call? Or does anyone know if the screen still responds to touches even though the backlighting is off? Or is this an iPhone 4-esque situation where I'm "holding it wrong"?
Thanks guys
I take it the lack of responses means that no one else is experiencing the issue and that I should swap it under Warranty :/

Never faced any of such issues with my nexus. You should go for a replacement
when i answer or send a call and put my stock Gnote3 to my ear, the screen doesn't turn off. then my ear plays with the screen, touching buttons and sometimes hangs up on the caller. anyone know what i can do to fix this?
thanks in advance
Settings > Device > Call then make sure Turn off screen during calls is checked.
thanks for the reply...where's the Thanks button?
it was checked, so i unchecked it and rebooted phone. then went and re-checked it. it still won't always turn off when i put it to my ear
I seen this thread, Proximity sensor issue and solution http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2568003
looks like i need to be rooted for that thread to work for me.?.
Yes
Blow on the speaker above the Samsung logo. The proximity sensor is under the shiny metal part. There might be dust blocking it. Hope that helps

My note is about 16 months old now and this is just the norm now. I have blown through the speaker with canned air, it fixes it for a day or too. Then the proximity sensor gets blocked and does it again. It just gets worse and worse I don't even bother anymore. I just turn it off with the power button when I am talking.
just tried the canned air, hope it helps! thanks fellas
There's a weird crackling/hissing noise that comes through the phone speaker at the bottom when my phone vibrates. It happens more frequently when I'm typing or touching the bottom part of my screen. Anyone else has this problem or am I the only one? Should I return my phone? Thanks!
