But normally, except during calls, the proximity sensor doesn't do anything if it's activated.
Anyway, I found an app in the Play Store that claims to be able to disable certain hardware functions, but I wouldn't risk it if I were you. Something which might be safe is to re-calibrate your sensor using this app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=cn.zte.ProximeitySensorClib&hl=el
I hope that helps
Repair your mobile using PCC.. flash the latest firmware,if the problem persists then go to nearest sony center and check the sensor with them.
Thanks
Thank you guys a lot, i returned it to SONY service center , the exchanged it for me . Thanks for your help

I just bought a Galaxy S from ebay and am facing this problem. Everything works fine on the phone and it doesnt look like there is any water damage. When I try to make a call the screen goes completely blank. I cannot disconnect the phone or do anything since the screen is blank. The only thing that I can do is remove the battery and install it again. Based on my research it seems like its a proximity sensor. I even went ahead downloaded Z-deviceTest and all hardware seems fine. I also upgraded to the official 2.3.3 from Samsung so I dont have a custom ROM, no root nothing! What can it be? Should I ask the seller for a refund or there are any tweaks for it. Any help is appreciated.

I'm not an expert, but seems related to a faulty proximity sensor indeed...
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App
I am pretty positive that it is the proximity sensor as when I insert the headset calls can be made without the screen going blank. I dont have a screen protector and I tried to put some compressed air to see if that changes anything.
When making a call and the screen goes blank can you cover the proximity sensor for a while and see if its turning on the display? I kinda have the same issue sometimes and covering the sensor would normally do the job.
Sent from my SGS using XDA Premium
Same problem here, seems that plugging headset does the job. It is kind of lose or lose situation, even turning off (any idea how?) proximity sensor would not help as screen would be touched by ear Any other solution anyone? Or some kind of calibration? Check? Most applications from marked I have checked are crashing or showing 5cm from sensor regardless.
Hi Guyz,
My friend dropped his nexus one on the floor and from then on he is facing a weird problem. When he receives a call, when the sensor is turned on, the screen never comes back and it remains black. The only option is to pull out the battery and i suppose the drop has made proximity sensor faulty. He is not a rooted user. Is there any menthod to disable proximity sensor without rooting ? If not how can i fix it after rooting ? Any build.prop changes ?
Thanks,
karthik

hey Karthikus , I know this is not a new post, I would like to know if you solved your friends's problem, I have exactly the same, I used a couple of apps to disable the proximity sensor but still no luck, by the way I have the cyanogen mod 7 in my nexus now. the phone is a beauty, but its kinda annoying to have to remove the battery after a few calls, also I'm using a bluetooth headset, wich kinda minimizes the problem, but still not happy. please let me know , or not, I'm planning to build a disable sensors app myself in case I can't fixit. oh, and I tried all the other solutions I could find in google, like cleaning the sensors, (I dismantled the phone already) and enabling other ways to bring the screen up using other methods like trackball press or menu press. no way, still there. so please let me know. if still relevant.
thank you.

I would send it to SONY. That is the best what you can do if you have warranty.
Try this
Disable the Stamina mode. By now it should work as normal. If it does then try the below to see if you can rectify the problem.
1. Go to phone app and key in *#*#7378423#*#* to get to service menu.
2. You should see a menu called service tests, open that and find proximity test.
3. Open it and if it shows you as ON, then you have a proximity issue.
4. Try to tap on the area where the proximity located gently and see if you can get it back on track. If it doesn't, your only choice is to go back to Sony service centre.
Good luck.
The problem was with custom rom i have installed.I have flashed the stock ftf with flashtool and now it is working .My proximity test was ok but my proximity sensor was causing problem while calling which is fixed by gently tapping the area where the proximity sensor is located.

It is not a hardware problem.
You can try to factory reset.
If it is still not working, then there is a system bug that acknowledged by Sony.
You can try to update your phone. Or wait for next new software to solve this problem.
Hi
I have Xperia z1 which got bricked due to water damage, i got the phine to work again using testpoint method and reflashed with flashtool and pc compagnion with latest stock firmware.

any idea that may help me, only the display is not working the touchscreen is fine.
No one !!!!!
Is it showing any sign of life like turning leds on? Or its off? If its off then you have to send to Sony for repair.

oh I mean the screen leds, backlight...
or its completely black?
check it in dark.if the screen light up in black it means maybe you can save it.if you cant see anything then you need to change it .And that sucks cause you will have to change the working touchscreen too.you cant change just the lcd

Just rotate your finger like drawing cercle , then it will calibrate .
