Hello everyone,
Recently, everytime I get a phone call, the screen doesn't go off when the phone is next to my ear. In other words, the sensor does not sense that I picked up the phone.
I have tried many ROMs to get this fixed. I flashed the factory GB and that didn't work either.
I'm not sure if this a driver problem or a hardware problem. Can somebody help me fix this??
Thanks.
Proximity sensor problem anyone??..

Hello,
at first I would try to test the hardware. I did find a small app called 'My Android sensors'. Start that and look for a proximity sensor. If you can't find it then there is a problem.
Bug it should be there even if it isn't working. Then open if and look for the sensor state. On a SGS it can only say 'near' or 'far'. Test the sensor by moving the hand to the left side of the speaker grill. There is the sensor. The state should change. If it doesn't then you have a malfunctioning sensor so changing the Rom is of no use.
If it does change you should contact the Rom developer for a start.
Can try reflashing stock or custom Rom whatever you are on. Mostly it can be a sensor driver issue present in the current Rom.

the value (near far) doesn't change. So it's dead?
AW: [Q] Call sensor
Maybe there is software to disable the sensor. Or your Rom has such an option. But I'm not aware of such things. So it looks like your sensor is dead. Sorry!
when I talk with my XZ1, and I should activate the proximity sensor with my ear, it often fails
often, the display light keeps ON and I activate with my ear all the possible functions (for example I had to turn off my airplane mode shortcut off to avoid to lose calls in progress pressing it with my ear!)
the only way to save all my calls is.... to remember to lock my screen before answering
do you know how can I fix it? :angel:
anybody had the same problem?
I'm having the same issue, really frustrating as I have ended calls several times and also muted, called extra calls etc...
Not happy about this at all
the same for me !
it's really annoying :'(
I just noticed. If I cover the sensor before making the call, the screen turns off when I press call, and comes back when I remove the cover.
I however can not make the screen turn off once I have removed the cover.
I get the same problem, I also had similar experience with my HTC One, I've found out if I lock the screen after dialing number/contact it helps, a bodge job I know but stops me going through the menus with my ear lol!

I've got problem with sensibility of the sensor some times.
I thinks i don't use the good position for the phone.
With xperia T i've used "pimp my rom" to lower the distance for proximity sensor. It was a lot better.
May be it's not the same problem as you cause it was not on every call.
BTW i've an other question about proximity sensor. I need to have it working with other app. i don't have try every option on pimp my rom and now my Z1 is back to root.
where's the "pimp my ROM" function to tweak proximity sensor?

In the app go to :
-> tweaks -> telephony -> proximity sensor delay
Edit :
since .257 proximity sensor don't work...
maybe do you need a rooted device?

Yes, pimp my rom need rooted device but i've read after upgrading.
So i loose root...
I don't have time to test root on .257 now
I've just tested "proximity screen off" (by playstore) on my. rooted. 257. It perfectly works No more problems during the calls

Had this problem. Just hold your phone properly wherein you touch the proximity sensor.

I had a bit different issue. When I dial a call, immediately the screen goes blank (proximity sensor is activated), but the call goes through well.
I powered off the phone and turned ON again, the issue did not occur. I have the latest software update

Xperia Z1 (C6902) India
SW version: C6902 14.1.G.2.257 Generic IN
dial *#*#7378423#*#* there is a calibration of sensor but for me when trying timeout error
you need to factory reset
a good solution without root is... to use the right ear talking on the phone. The problem seems to be sensor's position

Sometimes screen wakes during call for a second and it repeating that, but a have the phone close to my ear. (I'm using stock (root) firmware). What do you think it's a problem? (if i test promiximity sensor in hide menu-"promiximity wakelock" for a longer time all is OK)
Try with another rom.

The stock firmware for our phone has some problems with the proximity sensor. Iodak's kernel and p880-sources built ROMs have a fix for it included. Not sure about CM based ones, but I guess they'll work fine too! So yeah, that about anything but stock you could try
Greetings from my Nexus 7 FHD!
If another rom doesn't help, there could be some dust or something else on the sensors way... I had similar problems with HTC Desire HD, which was resolved with some intense sensor cleaning... The rom change is easier to complete though, as the sensor is not in visible place
Problem with sensor is rare, so i think, The same as mcgangsta is easier to change Rom

proximity is kernel related not rom
I just bought a new m7 yesterday and my experience is horrible. It was all ok but after the lollipop upgrade everything is messed up.
Proximity sensor is totally fine because I have checked it with several apps...
problem one: the screen doesn't turn on after I remove tho phone from my ear while calling, so I can't hang up unless the other person hangs up.
Problem 2: Same thing with Lock Screen. It doesn't turn on..
Problem 3: my phone's touch is not working at a certain horizontal line along the screen, When I touch there, two touches are senses just right and left....
If anyone has encountered these problems, please give me a solution or find me a better solution.

looks like you are having hardware problem with the digitizer and the proximity sensor, you might want to send back this phone a get another one.
same issue 100% positive its a lollipop bug after a reset it gets fixed but if i update my apps through playstore it comes back

If the problem returns after updating your apps through the playstore then it's related to one of your app, not lollipop itself. One of your apps must be interfering with the screen or the proximity sensor.

Hi
( 1 )
I really need a custom ROM which fixed proximity sensor calling Black Screen Of Death , but when I connect a HF speakers the screen shows
I tried different ROMs ( stock, pure_nexus, Cataclysm ) without luck :crying:
( 2)
Also in whatsapp when I play audio messages it goes to black screen with only status bar and navigation showing and the sound volume so low. I have seen this bug only on Nexus 6. I's think it also related to the proximity sensor.
Note: I replaced the full LCD because I bought it with a broken LCD.
Nexus6 64gb
Cataclysm M 6.0.1
Pure Nexus M 6.0.1
Thanks
Still waiting for any tips
Nobody can help?
there's no such ROM, sorry.
Only issue I've ever had like this was with a zagg tgsp. It covered the process sensor... Had a vzw tg and now intelliglass. Both have the sensor cutout and haven't had an issue since.
Reading your post i remember having a similar proximity sensor problem with my Note 2 years ago. This post solved the problem for me.
Old and wit different hardware and software, but maybe just maybe it could be of some help for you:

Thanks man
I will give it a go and see.
Thanks all for replying
The only thing that worked, I installed [ROM] ✵ N6XShamuM ✵ MMB29S ✵ Xposed & GravityBox ✵ v2.1.6
and disabled the proximity sensor within Xposed
horrrrray
