Proximity vibrate

Just curious, is there an app that automatically puts the phone on vibrate when it senses the proximity sensor. I want the phone to automatically go into vibrate only mode when its in my pocket and come out of it when I take it out. Thanks.

I think tasker might be able to do this, but i'm not 100% sure.

Any others?

How to calibrate the motion sensor?

Hi guys, I was playing Hungry sharks evolution and ingame I calibrated my motion sensor, but something went wrong and now the screen never rotates, I can't find the option for sensor calibration in the settings + can't fix it even ingame.

Factory reset should fix this

Not sure what helped, but the phone fixed itself! Thanks anyways

It's a bug, Galaxy S3 has it too so we're not the only ones.

Problem with proximity sensor.

My proximity sensor doesn't work properly. When i make a call the screen shut down before I take it to my ear. I try the diagnostics app and the proximity test failed.
My phone is naked, no cases and no screen protectors. Latest firmware.

Well, resolved by myself doing a restore with pc companion.

Deactivate sensors

Hi,
I see that the sensors are draining my battery, is it possible to turn turn them off? Especially the accelerator sensor (i don't use this ) and the proximity sensor, where is this sensor for?
Thank you!

Could you please provide the name of the app so I can download it and test for myself, it doesn't look like those sensors should be using that much power, especially when in idle, do you have shake to wake and auto brightness on? Unless there's another App involved, those are the likely reasons
Edit
NM, android tuner, got it and testing now

Alright, it's definitely an app you've installed or rom/kernel set up that's causing that, try out gsam on the play store, that may come up with a way to find the app/s causing the accelerometer and light sensors to consume that amount of power. It might even show you how to manage it good luck

Thanks for the information! I'm using autobrightness and pocket detection, maybe the problem is with the pocket detection?

I'm using elementalx kernel

Looks like it is the pocket detection, try wiping cache, dalvik cache and reflashing elemental x kernel again. See how that goes, if it still uses the sensors too much, try reinstalling elemental again but decrease the sensitivity of the sensors a little. Play around with it and see what happens, pretty safe hope it works for you

Remote app

Anyone have any universal remote apps that work well with this phone?

I didn't think the phone had an IR sending unit in it. The only IR units it has are the ones at the bottom of the screen to detect a hand to turn the screen on. I could be wrong but I haven't seen it in any of the spec sheets.
