Does anyone had this problem?
I think I've noticed this on the pre-mango update on an unlocked HD7 Europe, but with the final build it got resolved.
Now, I have this on my phone from 8107, Tango and so on.
Is there any way to increase the "sensibility" of this proximity sensor through registry-tweaks?

Hi,
Have the same issue, too !
hmm, looks like a android 2.3 issue on that one....
The same here. Is there any way to do a downgrade to 2.2? The phone is unusable, I'll have to go back to my old Nokia!!
Also, at the same time, when I plug the earphones on the Nexus, it doesn't detect them and continues playing through internal speaker!! And I suspect that the light sensor doesn't work.
Hasta luego.

RE: how to disable proximity sensor
hey there, this is my second post, THIS PLACE IS AWESOME!!! I was able to disable my nexus one proximity sensor using the hex edit method (after granting the app root access) and now a brick to be is no more. thank you to the poster who made the original post and the one who mentioned the way to give hexedit root access. my sensor definition was exactly where he said it would be. the name of course was cm3602 (lowercase, looking for uppercase found nothing) I was able to change hex position 0000323d from 32 to 00 , and poof, no more black screen after dialing or when receiving a call. a temporary solution I was using was to use a bluetooth headset.
Thank you all.
Girlfriend's phone is rooted, but ROM is stock gingerbread. Her proximity sensor has been flaky since she first got the phone, often turning off the screen when the phone is away from her ear, but not always. On forums for other phones I have seen that similar proximity sensor issues were cured when the carrier pushed out a ROM update. So I'm wondering have others had proximity sensor issues with the stock ROM or the jocala rooted stock gingerbread ROM, and if so, were proximity sensor issues cured with flashing a new, custom ROM?
I have never had proximity sensor issues with my phone, when bone stock or when using all the various ROMs I have flashed. I sure am happy with AOIP. I will flash that on her phone if people think that might cure her proximity sensor issue. I just don't like to risk messing with somebody else's phone and potentially bricking it if there is not a pretty good chance of curing a problem by flashing a ROM. Please advise. Thanks, everybody.
proximity sensor fixed with ROM update?

WOW. This forum is really slowing down. Everybody must be migrating over to the Nexus 4. Any ideas on the proximity sensor and whether it is buggy because of the gb stock ROM? I guess I'll find out when I flash AOIP.
I have had no problem with the proximity sensor on aoip

I have Note8. It has a very strange sensors error, as below:
- All sensors, from proximity sensor, light sensor, to GPS, iris scanner, and all the other sensors do not work at all.
- In the app like Phone INFO Samsung, CPU-Z or AIDA64, in the Sensors section, all sensors do not work.
- The Auto Brightness function does not work (due to the light sensor), the brightness of the AOD screen is also not adjustable.
- When making a phone call and move the phone close to the ear, the screen does not turn off due to proximity sensor.
- Auto Rotation function is not working (due to rotation sensor).
- Google Maps shows inaccurate location. Other apps that rely on GPS (such as the speedometer app) are completely not working.
- The iris scanner function does not work either.
It was about two weeks ago. I've Wiped the cache, restart the phone but does not make sense.
Yesterday it suddenly returned to normal, I don't know why.
But today - while I'm typing this post - all sensors suddenly do not work again.
Any idea about the error and how to fix it?
Thank you guys
Best advice I can think of is to factory reset and see if that alleviates the problem.
If you did not do anything firmware-related, or you did not drop or submeged your device, the best you can do is to make a warranty claim, pure and simple, if you have no way to make such claim, well, next time you should consider getting a device from an official source
I've read other users have had same problem. Ones I read said it was motherboard issue had to have sammy replace it.
Thank you guys
There is also built-in sensor test. Open dialer and dial *#0*#
I noticed a problem when I was playing Asphalt (racing game on me Note 8). I am unable to use the Tilt controls to move the scar.
Testing out the Sensors using *#0*# at the dialer revealed that all the SENSORS was faulty.
I reset the whole phone just now. The issue is still there with the sensor. As expected Auto rotation doesn't work.
Running the latest version 8.0.
I recently changed my motherboard (under warranty) 3 months back cos something was faulty. Seems it may be another motherboard issue.
Anyone else in this thread solved the issue?
Hey everyone I'm facing the same problem. All sensors stoped working but they were working before on 7.1.1 and i updated my device to oreo and realized all sensors stoped
Then i got another updated for about 900mb i thought maybe this update will fix them and also that update said tha after updating the user cannot downgrade to nougat but after updating the problem still exsist. Please if anyone can help i also try to flash same oreo firmware with odin but doesn't fixed the sensors
so in short this problem has plagued the phone since day one and i suspected a HW issue since nothing fixed it. for those who dont know whats im talking about, you are lucky. the issue is basically that the proximity sensor is missed up so the screen will light up when you are in a call or listening to Whatsapp/Telegram voice messages.
The Solution:
The problem, turned out, was caused by the factory screen protector that came already applied to the phone. i removed it after it was damaged and also removed the case (Spigen Rugged Armor Case), cleaned the phone and VIOLA its working perfectly fine now...
i hope it works for everyone else.
So, what you are saying is:
Since when this phone got launched in May 2019, not a single user facing the proximity sensor issue had the ingenious idea to remove their factory applied screen protector and you are the first one to come up with this "fix"?
I am really sorry to be this discouraging but: This ain't it chief.
Good that it fixed your perception of the issue though
Comrade, the issue is far graver than that. OnePlus 7Pro does not have a proximity sensor per se. It uses software (an ai I think) to "guess" whether to turn on the screen or not which is why listening to voice notes gets crazy...

Even though it does have an infrared sensor under the screen (that has been proven), i agree with you that it seems to be using something like that.. Curiously, the proximity sensor once fired when i flicked off my lights in my room.. This indeed leads me to believe there is more going on than just a simple infrared proximity sensor..
But yeah, i don't think removing the stock screen protector "fixes" the thing.. It may improve things but i doubt it's a fix.. As i said, this phone has been out for a while and people would have noticed if removing the screen protector fixes the proximity sensor for good..So yeah, cheers mate.
I took the screen protector off before I turned the phone on for the first time. I still get the screen lighting up while I'm on a call, often muting it with my cheek.
I must be lucky but at the moment I have no such issue with my new OP7P (MFD: 2019/05). RR Rom. Still have the screen protector on it. What's the MFD of your unit ?
i have problem with my oneplus since i rooted this phone
after root i have installed pixel expereince rom
when i called i found proximity sensor not working
now almost 6 months no fixed i'm stock oos
please help me there is no guard on my phone also no cover
The simplest solution for me has been to use a Bluetooth headset. I rarely use it without it.
are 10 sec. Aod and proximity problems solved after the latest official update 12.0.8.0 ?
It seems they will never fix the proximity sensor issue. I do not think that they are even aware of that. But yoi will get camera shot filters...
AOD is fixed for me with 12.0.12. I can set it to always-on and it will stay on.
The proximity issue while taking a call is still there tho.
Don't get it, what is the problem with proximity? Mine is working fine with .eu and did so in global to.
