Hi...
Does anyone knows if there is a way to disable the proximity sensor on a Milestone??? or better yet.. recalibrate it..
I have replaced the glass after having smashed the old one.. and now the phone always think the proximity sensor is activated..
my stone,too .
anybody help us? please!!! i lov my stone!
So, ur phone is thinkin' that sensor activated? If that has mean only in dialer, try installing this program: myLock phone tools and set there "Onscreen Accept", "Onscreen Reject" and "Touchscreen lock", that should help u.
I am having same problem, proximity sensor isn't working properly, once screen goes off, can't drop the call. Is there any script or app which can disable prox sensor completely. I am using Android 2.1 rooted phone.
Thank you very much in advance.
same problem
Same problem here my proximity doesn't works, if I call or I attend call screen gets black
None of the keys works at this time. I found an app in market called 'proximity screen off' but as its an app It eats ram & it needs to run anytime in background I need a permanent solution.
Somebody have any idea to disable this sensor using
Any scripts through terminal? Or ...

I have the same issue I already put some spongy tape above the proximity sensor but it's not perfect. I always press the the display with my finger an inch below the left upper corner of the phone after a call and the screen is back.

I used Proximity Sensor Finder app from market to test my sensor.
I have replaced the lcd/digitizer on my htc sensation xl and my proximity sensor has stopped working. Every time i make calls it goes to a black screen and sometimes the battery needs to be removed just to get it to turn back on. i was wondering if there was a way to disable the sensor through the software? or completely replace it?
anyone??

i don't have any idea about the proximity sensor ,but the same thing happened to me ,when i make a call my screen shuttdown and it comes black ,i tried diffrent roms but nothing changed so i decieded to sale the phone .
i posed a post about that and dont receive any proposition or help ,with you ,we are tree presons suffuring from this bug .
i didn't sale the phone yet but before that i will taste one last possibility who is to flash my phone with Ruu ,until that time i wish you a good luck and if i found something which fix it i will post it here .
i once had the issue with screen protector on, but once i took it off, it worked fine.
definitely gotta be the screen's problem, it has nothing to do with softwares.
maybe you can try this app to disable the prox sensor http://www.androidzoom.com/android_applications/tools/proximity-screen-off_pjwz_download.html
if the app works for u, rmb not to touch the screen when u are making a call.

ok ,i will try this app and i will see if the phone respond positively .
I have a HTC Sensation XL and have also found the same issue when replacing the screen, both the speaker and Proximity sensor stopped working. After looking around for a while i found the comments on this site from a guy that obviously has come across the issue often:
psytechrepairs.tumblr.com/page/6
It sounds like a common occurrence that they fail with a screen replacement. I've also found that the light sensor and proximity sensor seem to both be on the same removable replaceable board (some sell it as a light sensor & others sell as a proximity sensor but they are both together):

Hope this helps.
I know this is an old thread however I have found a solution which i would like to share.
When replacing the lcd the way to fix the proximity sensor is to cover BOTH parts of the proximity sensor with Scotch tape and color the Scotch tape with a black Sharpie felt-tip pen.
works 100%
Hi,
sorry for posting here after so much time, but I have a problem. I smashed my display and ordered myselve a new one. Once I have changed it, the phone looked like everything is working just fine. Than I noticed that my Google Play Store is crashing, and a few apps were on my phone that I have deleted months ago.
My phone is ROOTED!!!
I decided to flash it again, the problem with crashing Play Store was solved.
After I realized my phone is acting crazy,first when I call someone the display goes black, and I cannot hang up or something. It looks like the proximity sensor failure. And even worse, sometimes the phone acts just like someone was using it, it writes opens apps, just like when someone is using the phone.
Any ideas???
Hi all. I own a i9000 running aokp milestone 6 but decided to buy a faulty i9000 on ebay just for a bit of fun really.
The problem is when making a call the screen stays black or freezes and won't respond. The call stays connected so no way to hang up.
I installed "Proximity sensor finder" on my own i9000 which worked great. (0cm when sensor is on, 5cm when off). Tried this on the damaged phone and it stays at 5cm but still shows "proximity sensor: available". I have replaced the proximity sensor with a new one but didn't do anything. Also tried it on stock rom and AOKP milestone6.
Any ideas folks? Would really like to get this working.
Hellooo:
First of all sorry for my english.
I have a problem with my new Optimus Black. When I make a call sometimes the screen gets black and sometimes it gets black when I put it in my ear (in this case the functionallity is normal). In the first situation I can't get screen on again. I think that is a proximity sensor problem but maybe a software problem. Maybe it needs a recalibration. I search for calibration tools but not luck. What can I do?
Thanks in advance.
my search does not turn the screen turns off, How do I close a proximity sensor?
I'm also having some troubles with the proximity sensor. It works randomly (specially in the dark) and sometimes after calling or VOIPing I have to flick the phone or turn off/on the screen to be able to hang up.
Is there an option to tweak the sensitivity of the sensor?
