Hello,
I bought the nexus 6 and after upgrading to official 5.1, when i make/receive a call, my screen turns off, and it doesn't turn on until the other person disconnect the call. I have tried using the power button to wake up the screen but it doesn't work at all.
Please Help, I have searched all over the internet to get a solution for this problem but i could not get a fix for it yet.
Best Regards
Jas

Do you by chance have a tempered glass screen protector?

No, actually it does matter. If it is of lesser quality and it covers the proximity sensor, it will cause problems on 5.1.

It shouldn't matter but it's a well known fact that when people updated to 5.1 stock image it did something to the sensor. The people with tempered glass screen protectors had to remove it to resolve the issue. I don't use one and never had this issue my self, but I seen countless post with the issue.
it does work now
Yeah thanks a lot for helping me out fixing my phone. It work's absolutely fine without the tempered glass screen protector. Now i have ordered a normal screen protector as it is very essential for keeping the phone screen safe. Thanks agai. Thanks a lot

You just need to make sure the screen protector has the proximity sensor cut out. It happens with plastic screen protectors as well if they cover the sensors to the left of the top speaker.
Watch out for the Zagg protectors, it also caused some issues with Mom's N6

Ok been using a screen protector for a week now and the pen has scratched the hell out of it so my question is why lol and is any body else got this problem. IF not what ones did you buy mines where cheap so I'm hoping that's the reason.
I'm using my note without any screen protector. Not a single screach yet.
Search the forum. There is plenty of posts in this topic. Go to accessories section.
As xda always says "search, search, search before posting. "
Cheers

Wow... U must have some really bad screen protector.
I bought a pack of 10 off ebay for about 10 dollars, my intention was to use these to learn how to apply a screen guard properly first and then buy a relatively expensive quality screen guard later but surprisingly I never had to buy again, cuz those dirt cheap screen protectors have lasted till now with no scratches even after using stylus extensively. I have about 6 more left ( first 3 had big ass bubbles/dust in it after application)
Maybe Iam simply lucky to have found a good seller

I'm willing to bet its the default screen protector. It doesn't have a cutout and makes the proximity sensor go crazy. Your phone thinks its in your pocket which is why active notifications aren't coming on. I had a similar issue with my screen staying off during calls, and not being able to turn the screen back on because the phone thought my face was next to it. Take off the screen protector and I bet your issue goes away.

Yea, I'm willing to bet the sensor is freaking out. And two of you in this thread that have the problem also have the original screen protector on that blocks the sensor, so it seems most likely.

Yeah I still used the original screen protector that is coming out from the box so it still look like a brand new phone . well you know the reason I did that because too lazy to get a new screen protector but don't you think default screen protector that came right from the box is too thin that will make the sensor went crazy ? I mean that's only my thought from logical point of view .

The original screen protector was making my phone go nuts. As soon as i took it off, the issue went away. My issue was that when I was on a call, my face being next to the phone would trigger the screen to go black (as it should). But then when taken away, it would stay black, because the screen protector was messing with the sensor.

Well thank's pyro, even I haven't tried out yet but I will do that and thx for the heads up about the screen protector. you know funny thing, even lot's of people loves Nexus 5, Damn I'm more prefer nexus 5 since the battery is like a beast its like Toyota Prius .
I wish for the next gen of phone Motorola will make this feature as their patent and will be the only phone that will have this kind of feature and also for google nexus too.
After all this time of use with the nexus I made a brief video if the nexus 4 survived well or not. I hope you like it guys and if you do like it then subscribe and share this video

Could be from a direct fall in the screen since it's not just the onscreen buttons, its the part of the onscreen buttons like even in Fullscreen games this side won't work .

Same problem my side. I was advised to replace the digitizer, and apparently this can be caused by normal wear and tear; fortunately for me, the problem resolved itself somehow. No idea whether that can happen to others as well, but still...
Maybe it was rom related or screen was dirty or something dirty was on your screenprotector. For everyone who reads this i recommend a screenprotector and a gel case or someother but gel absorbs the shocks good so the glass wont break and screen protectors protects your screen also a bit from humid weatherm

The navigation bar is very likely to be a kernel problem maybe swipe2wake function.
Try to change it.
Flashing to stock 4.4.3 didn't solve the problem instantly. It took about a week before it came back to normal. Screen protector was okay, it's still clean and clear

Replace the digitizer
Sent from my Nexus 4 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
How much does it cost ? And I read reports about people getting their batteries changed and it worked also should I just buy another phone?
nice vid
This is very nice and interesting video.
I really like it.
I should make a video about my Nexus 4.
With 1 year and I bet I could sell it as a new phone.
No scratches anywhere, but I use tempered glass screen protector at the front and a normal screen protector at the back.
So the nav bar on my phone stopped working. I had to get the digitizer replaced with a new (probably used) one. This set me back by INR 5500 (under 100$)
Expensive for my small salary, but I would prefer a working phone any day of the week.
Hi.
I got this phone about 5 months ago, and i was not regularly using it to make phone calls... but unfortunately now i have to, since i smashed my main phone.
Anyway, it worked perfectly until last week.
Now, whenever i get called, or i'm trying to call someone, the display goes black. I cannot see who's calling and cannot answer the call, unless i drag the drop-menu (usually notifications are displayed there) from the top; and if i'm the one trying to call someone, the moment i press call the screen goes black and cannot use the phone until either the person answers and then hangs up, or i have to wait for that robot to finish it's speech ...
Games like CoD mobile and Lineage Revolution work fine, but i need to be able to use the phone now (
This morning i whipped the device clean, but it still does the same.
Please help.
Thank You.
I had the same problem turned out to be the glass screen protector I was using, if your using one take it off and try calling someone.

Do not buy the tempered glass screen protector from Nubia for the 3/3S. Customer service has admitted it interferes with proper operation of the proximity sensor.

Hello, thank you for your contact. After attaching the tempered film, it will have a slight impact on the proximity sensor of the mobile phone. It is recommended not to paste the tempered film.
