Need help about proximity sensor - One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello.. Im using Miui 4.1.24 on my Htc One. But the problem is every screen off app, which uses proximity sensor, causing unusual restarting the phone in spite of shutting the screen off only. But my proximity sensor is ok. I tested it with testing app as well in sense 4.4 Rom. Plus during calls, it also somehow works ok.
Can anyone gimme a guideline how to solve this?? Rebooting, reinstalling the Rom - these things I already did many times.
Thanks..

blank screen but phone ON!!!!

Has anyone had this issue?
I have tried a few different ROM's and have had this problem on all, the phone will work but sometimes when the phone is locked and asleep you cannot get the screen back.
If you ring the phone it will ring but you can't wake the phone up (the screen is off).
If I then pull the battery and reboot all is well until the next time, which is random.
I will remove all my programs to see if there is one of them causing the issue, I don't believe it is the rom as it has happened on a few of them.
Have you wiped your phone when flashing the different roms? I've had it sometimes, i think it could be a ram management issue...

Yeh, I always do a factory/wipe, dalvik cache wipe.
I think it might have been TW4.5, I did some research and installed TW4 Manager I then updated TW4.5 to the latest Version. So far it hasn't happened yet but i'll give it a couple more days.
Thanks.
Yh ive been reading and TW4 generally accelerates the issue (because its a ram hog? not sure i dont use it) Im currently using Golauncher with system tweaks, but was told that nemus launcher and system tweaks was a better combination... Seems to be working, ive had less force closes or issues of that type
it's the proximity sensor. needs replaced.

I don't think so...
The proximity sensor is only used when your in a call. It should not have any effect when he tries to wake it from his pocket after a while...
Well i am on 2.3.5 and using golauncher and never had any problems. Still my best guess is the damn sensor. On samsung apps there is an app called sensors i think and that app tells u what is working inside the phone.

Sounds like a great app but seeing as the screen doesn't turn on that app might as well be useless in this case
No screen turns on, its just when it turns off it wont come back on...
I have the same issue with my SGS. Running stock version of JVT.
Wake up in the morning to phone alarm but screen is black. Pushing home button or any other button does nothing. Had this happen a few times now and only solution is to pull the battery
In order to help you we need to know what you are running currently and what you have tried to resolve the issue so far, can please make as detailed account as possible
It's seems that everybody have this same issue. I have exactly this same - phone is working - buttons are lit, but the screen is blank. I'm on 2.3.5 stock firmware.
Trying to solve this I already did wipe and even formatted the internal storage.
What's more interesting is that this same happens to my wife's Galaxy Mini (S5570) !!.
I can remember though that when my phone was on v2.2 about a year ago it was working ok.
small tip:
What you can do instead of pulling the battery out is to press the power button for about 10 seconds ( phone will turn off) release and the press it again for few seconds to start again.
You don`t need to press power again, just keep it pressed until you see the samsung bootlogo.
Mine has started to blackout too, maybe it`s related to some installed software. It worked ok still few months ago. My galaxy mini is working ok tho, has only few market apps installed.

The bug is called SOD (Sleep of Death). Apparently a Gingerbread only bug (I think deep sleep was introduced in Gingerbread).
Your phone is going into deep sleep, and can't be woken agian.
I don't know if there is a fix for it, but you could try search for SOD on these forum pages.

i had this issue on cm7 with neo kernel, but sometimes it responded after some time
i think its black magic made by apple and will kill our cats
As Herman76 said, this is the SOD, I used to get them quite frequently. I created a thread with a possible workaround. So far haven't got any new SODs.

Have you tried to flash another ROM to see you still have problem?
ok, will try.
Have you installed any battery saving apps, that might be the problem?
No, but as i guess , the problem connected with apps which want to connect to internet, because I turn off internet connection on my phone..
i have other problem with mic, when someone call me their hear me after 2-3 seconds. As I found out, this problem is very spread, but no solution is suggested.
Haven't u updated to 2.3.6? It may solve your voice issues.
Can you figure out apps running in the background that make screen turn on/off?
I installed 2.3.7, but no change, Yes I found that app- it is compass.
Check the settings of that compass whether screen is on/off? Are you using stock or CM ROM? Check also the display settings.

Try lowering your display brightness...that worked for me.
I use CM 7.2, and uninstall that app and everything with display is ok, but mic problem still there is.

Problems with the Call Sensor

Hey guys,
i have got problems with the Call Sensor lately.
When i try to call someone the display suddenly goes black and i have no option to reenable it.
Is there any solution to this kind of problem?
I have the latest CM10.1 build installed
Thx in advance
Maybe you can found more info in CM Thread.
However, probably, is an issue of your version of CM...

Google Maps Rotation Broken

Hey people of XDA!
I've got a weird problem with my Google Maps app. Every time I rotate the map and touch the compass button to restore it to north pointing up, it doesn't fully rotate, it takes multiple presses, and stops every 0.5s ish. The same thing happens with the My Location button.
Here is a video link:
Does anyone have any ideas? It never happened before I rooted and now it always happens despite what rom I use, I'm using ViperOne 3.5 at the moment. I've tried literally everything! Different firmware, Android 4.2.2/4.3, full wipe and flash of roms.
The actual compass and GPS work perfectly fine too.
Thanks in advance!
Update: I've been testing previous versions of Google maps and it's only been happening from v7 onwards. I've downgraded to v6.14.4 and everything is working perfectly as it should.
Guess I'll stick with this until there's a fix for this rare bug.
Must be someone having the same issue?
My bad I posted in wrong thread

Lol, anyway I found the issue...
I usually use the developer options to set the animations on 2x, I like animations
It turns out it was the animator duration scale. I set it back to 1x and maps is working perfectly just like before, running v7.5.0 right now.
Just thought I'd keep this updated incase anyone else ran into the same problem.

try settings --> sound --> "Mute once" instead of "Mute always"
If set to Mute always, phone will not ring when proximity sensor is covered.
Thanx,it's working now but who knows for how long. I tryed that several times and never worked....working now. I'm using some app as proximity fix and maybe in combination with that app is working now. Anyways thanks for help
