Xiaomi Mi 9 Lite / CC9 with proximity sensor issues - Xiaomi Mi CC9 / Mi 9 Lite Questions & Answers

Does anybody has problems with proximity sensor (Mi 9 Lite/CC9) during a call?
My phone doesn't block the screen when I approach it to my face. I also have a Redmi Note 7 and I don't have this problem with this phone.
I dialed *#*#6484#*#* and did the proximity sensor test and it passed. It's ok. Its shows the number 0 when I get close, and 5 otherwise.
My Note 7 has a dedicated setting for proximity sensor, but not on my Mi 9 Lite.
Is there something i can do to to fix it?

I have this problem as well... Not sure how to fix it though. There's a mod called disable sensors I've been thinking of playing with, for now I can really only talk on speakerphone. Pretty irritating.

to both of you a quick (maybe stupid) question , do you have any tempered glass? If yes, might the problem is there , i had the same with nillkin tempered , i had to reinstall it more then 5 times so it can fit in the correct place.

honestly i bought the phone with the screen protector already on it, so i can't be 100 percent sure, it's hard to tell once it's on, but if i had to guess i'd say it's probably tempered glass....most are these days. it looks like it's in the right spot though, idk...i can't imagine where else i would put it. you say you had to reinstall several times...what specifically ended up being the solution?

To put it in the right place, I did it with the case on (spigen) and put it from the bottom up, we're talking about 1-2 millimeters lower.

So your theory is that the protector has to leave the sensor, or at least part of it, uncovered? Interesting. I suppose it could be. Could you show me a picture of just the verytop of your device? I'd like to see how much space should you leave between the top of the protector in the top of the phone, I don't know where the sensor is exactly.

active display notifications issue w/pic

I've noticed a few different times now when I pick up my Moto X and the screen activates to show the time/notifications that they are cut off, like there's some sort of hard edge cutting off part of the numbers in the time display. Anyone else noticed this? It doesn't do it when I wake the screen with the power button, only with the active display thing like it's not waking all the pixels it's supposed to or something, it's getting really annoying.
Here's a picture:

and another for good measure:
This is my second Moto X, the first had debris inside the camera lens. I've still got a week on Best Buy's 14 day return policy, hopefully 3rd times a charm. Really love the phone.
I am having the same issue with my phone. I searched around and this is the first mention of the problem that I have found.
Are your moto x made in the U.S. ? I've seen people in this forum saying that the ones sold outside US are made in China and have a better build quality.
BTW... I think the tattooist made a small 'typo' on the second Chinese letter on your arm.....
Don't have an answer for your problem but I do have a question. What kind of case kid that and does it have a built in screen protector? How do you like it? Not super bulky.

The case is a Trident Kraken AMS and yes it has a built in screen protector. It definitely adds some bulk to the phone, but I'm a metal fabricator and have to protect it from welding, metal flakes, grease, dust etc. Part of the reason I went with the Moto over the g2 is size because I knew I needed a heavy duty case, can't beat Trident. They have 5 cases for the moto x right now.
Lol about my tattoo, I'm aware of the "typo." First one I got when I was 18, haven't had the heart to fix/cover it. 13 years and that's the first time someone has called me on it.
And mine is a USA moto. Going to exchange it one more time today and see what happens.
I am facing the same problem.. Any luck in solving it?

Wow. Necro-thread. To answer your question, I had my phone replaced. Nothing I tried fixed the issue. Haven't had any problems with this one 18ish months.

Galaxy s7/s7 edge Home button protection

I have spent quite a lengthy amount of time tonight scouring the Internet trying to find something. I had a clear plastic film that I bought off eBay from China for my Note 7 (as well as tempered glass camera/heartbeat sensor protection...) but we all know what happened to that.
The seller is no longer selling them or I would purchase more as I believe the home buttons are the same dimensions between s7/n7.
My s7 is sitting in my n7 symmetry case with the factory screen cover still attached until I pick up a defender. I'm forced to leave the cheap protector on under the defender until I can find something for the home button..
Any ideas? I'm fine with film/vinyl/metal. Just want something to keep it from looking like the God awful photos I see online..
Thanks!
Just curious with clear home button, can u still use the fingerprint scanner
Sent from my SM-G935U using Tapatalk
Would all depend on material used but it worked with the one I had on my Note 7.
I actually found some on ebay from Hong Kong. Not sure why I missed them first time around.
I'll let you know in... 2-3 weeks..
I can't see how the fingerprint sensor would work with a plastic film on top of it...
I got set of stickers few days ago, fingerprint scanner was not working after applying, but I deleted previous fingerprint scans and set up new ones. Now fingerprint scanner works same like before, no issues. As you can see on picture below, sticker is really thin (damaged one on display for comparison) and it's hard noticeable on home button.

What screen protector are you using?
It's curved PET film protector. I bought it on Ebay I guess.

Weird oval going down middle

Hi, I don't suppose anyone could tell me what this is? I see it very clearly on my new note 9 I got 2 days ago. You can see it easily in a blacklight, hard to see in daylight. Any clues?

Have you got a screen protector on?
It's adhesive within the display.
I got the same thing on my screen? wtf is that?
I do not have a screen protector on. I figured it would be the glue underneath any idea if that will go away, or should I send it in for warranty? I like to study in my room with a blacklight on, and in person, this thing sticks out like a sore thumb lol
Why on earth would you send it in for warranty, this is not a fault, this is part of the production process, they all have this.
As two of my friends have note 9s and this doesnt show on their phones that's why.

Are you looking at your phone under a strong UV light?
There's a whole thread with "thousands upon of thousands " of users that have this defect.
Sent from my SM-G975U using Tapatalk
Don't worry, mine has this too (more visible with certain shades of grey though, at 60-65%+ brightness, in a dark room). It looks like some kind of glue or adhesive
Coming from a Pixel 2 XL, it never bothered me too much though. I've seen worse screen defects

same here, never noticed it until I was curing the device under the UV. since the time you are under UV lights should be fairly limited I would guess it's not a problem or an actual defect just that the UV shows up something that likely wouldn't be noticed otherwise.
its like saying the phone smells like a burnt crisp while having it out barbecuing.
but only when having it out barbecuing.
question:
is the phone making the barbecue smell or is the barbecue making the phone smell

hold it closer to the UV light in case it disappears.

The black rubber (adhesive) started coming off at the side of the screen

Hi everyone!
The black rubber (adhesive) started coming off at the side of the screen of my p30 pro through normal use.
Is this just normal? Will this affect the "waterproofness" of my phone? And does anybody here has the same situation I have?

It's not really that big, I'm just a bit worried maybe this could no longer fully protect my phone from dust and water anymore.

I read it doesn't matter, the seal is much bigger on the inside.

Thankss... You lower my anxiety level
I wouldn't be happy with that if it was my device. These are flagship, expensive phones. Warranty job I think.

Yeah, it's quite disappointing. Maybe I'll just send my phone to the service center just to be sure.
Adhesive coming off the bottom of P30pro screen
Hi Tony,
Any update on what the folks at the service had to say on this. Becuase I too have a similar situation with a adhesive like portion coming out from the bottom of the screen.
Thanks
Same problem. Black rubber coming off the edge of Huawei p30
I bought Huawei p30 less than a month ago and the black rubber is coming off the edge.
It's screen cracked badly after it fell of the bed once.
Disappointed with its quality.
Any suggestions about what can be done?

New S20 FE possible faulty

Hi All,
I bought a new S20 FE 5G from Amazon Germany, the phone was a bit dusty directly from the box and it was on ONE UI 3.1 by default, also its screen protector with not the one which I saw in most of the unboxing, it was a screen protector without a circle in the middle for the fingerprint.
What makes me feel more worried that I was able to pass a paper between the phone back cover and the aluminium frame as you could see in the picture, so I got worried that the phone is not water-resistant!
Please, would you advise me if you have faced or you have the same, is what I have is normal or a faulty, I will highly appreciate your advice?
Many thanks,
Cheers.

I just tried with the corner of a post-it-note, I was able to poke the corner in about half way up the side of the phone. my phone was definitely new and direct from Samsung.
did you buy yours as a refurbished device because it should not be on 3.1 unless it's the 4G Snapdragon version ?
if you were expecting a brand new phone you haven't been given one and should complain / return it.
I bought it as new and I have confirmed from Samsung that the phone is new and original, do you think the gap between the back cover and the aluminium frame is a normal thing?

I would've said no before reading this post and getting curious. depends if you can get paper passed where water resistant gasket / adhesive seal should be. if you can push in a lot more than 3 or 4mm I'd be concerned.

The factory screen protector has a cutout for the camera, but it never had a cutout for the optical fingerprint reader Where did you get that idea?

Fact is, in short. A good Screen Protector does not have a "Hole" in it, for the Finger print reader.
Got mine on Amazon, USA. Back in Jan'21
