Hi! Does anyone know how to solve the proximity sensor problem? When talking, the screen goes off but the cheek sometimes press the speakerphone or mute. Maybe someone crossed with this problem on custom decided whether this problem transition?

On my Nexus I use a bluetooth headset and sometimes when someone text me while I am talking and try to reply, I can't because the screen keeps turning off.
IS there a way to avoid this? I love multitasking LOL!
I guess I am the only one having this issue?
Proximity Sensor?
If you are texting in landscape, you might be covering the proximity sensor. And kudos on your multitasking prowess, i will never have your issue...I'm not that talented
Hi
I upgraded my XZ to 4.2.2 and after this im having a weird problem.
If im outdoors in the sunlight and make a call or take a call and then put the phone to my ear to speak .. after im done with the call .. the screen refuses to come back on until the other party disconnects.. but if i cover the light sensor with my hand . the screen comes on and i can disconnect the call ..
is anyone else facing this issue ?
any resolutions please ?
thanks in advance
As for a temp solution until you solve it, you can tick the "power button ends call" option in accessibility.
Hey guys, so the last couple of times I've made calls I noticed my screen would stay on during the calls. My ear would be pressing buttons during the calls causing havoc.
So I did a little research and found the hidden menu to test the proximity sensor, which is *#0*# on the dial pad. In doing so if your sensor is working correctly, at the sensor menu, the screen well turn green if the proximity sensor is covered. Mine doesn't, do I just assume my sensor went out or is there a procedure I can do to get it working again?
Hey, I'm using Moto X 2013 Xt1052 running Lollipop 5.1, My proximity sensor is not working, I'm sure it's the proximity sensor because I used test apps and I can see it's detecting proximity all the time at a distance of 3cm.
Obviously, my biggest problem with that is that my screen goes dark when I make a call (Because the proximity sensor think the phone is near my ear). Trying to use the power button to turn on the screen didn't work so I set the power button to hangup calls (Otherwise I had to wait for the other side to hang up!).
I think the Proximity sensor has got some Hardware defect, Please help me telling a way how to disable the proximity sensor so that while placing a call the screen won't go off.
I have the same problem on my phone. It happens not always but sometimes during calls. Or when I hear a long vocal on whatsapp putting the phone on the ear.

It's very hard to disable it in software. The best way is to open up the phone and physically remove the sensor from the PCB. It's easy to chop it of with a flat screwdriver.Problem solved.
I am facing the issue with a sensor while making call after oneui2.5 update.
Sometimes, the screen remains black after the call disconnected. To wake up the screen I used (double tap or power button)
After a restart, it works good. But after some time it became laggy again.
Does anyone face the same issue?
I have a quite different issue with the sensor. My screen doesn't go dark most of the times even when the phone is close to the ear. I guess there's no sensor in this phone, it also uses front camera to adjust the brightness.
Yes, the same issue when close to the ear. I don't know about the separate sensor or camera sensor.
