Ending calls from nexus is difficult as the phone shows me the control menu instead o - Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Ending call a call on my nexus 4 is difficult as the screen shown to me when i pull the phone from my ear is the control menu instead of call the call window. I have clicked the icon in settings to use the power button.... But thus to me doesn't seem the right answer for what's really a problem. Certainly coming from using an iPhone not having the call screen to end calls when you pull the phone from your face does seem silly to me
Any ideas what I should do?

I have no idea what you mean by "control menu."
When I pull the phone away from my ear there is a dialer pad and a big red button to end the call.

The "control menu" isn't the right word for it... I think its called the status menu. Its menu you pull down with one or two fingers.
It does it every time.

i think its just the way you put the phone on your ear

Really? I actually don't know what to say... Maybe I should ask how am I supposed to hold the phone.
I put it up to my ear it goes black whilst I am on the phone and then I pull the phone from my ear it still black then a few seconds later it wakes up and shows me that control/status pull down screen.

That's odd. Never heard of this happening. Maybe try a factory reset?

I also want to add that it works normally if I don't make a connection ie someone doesn't answer the call. Only when the call is answered dies this happen.

same weird problem here, running faux kernel.

Are you sliding the phone around on your face or something? Are there things protruding from your face/head that are hitting home or back? What the heck?

answer is no to all the questions, screen doesn't light up during calls.

I'm an idiot, but help me out. Phone won't go silent, volume won't drop below 1/6.

Hello all,
I've searched and can't seem to find anything on this.
My Nexus 4 seems to have some kind of glitch (or some kind of feature that I'm just not understanding). Normally I hold my volume button down to get to vibrate/silent. Now when I try to do that, it goes down to the first length but won't drop to vibrate. It simply won't let me. In addition, the phone's volume is really low, and google voice command doesn't work.
What am I doing wrong here? Or is there something wrong with my phone? Maybe some app is screwing with my volume?
hold power button to go silent/vibrate
Happened once on my roommate's. You have an app open that is also controlling the volume and won't let you turn it down. Force stop this app or reboot.

Ugh that's it. Problem went away as soon as I force-stopped the Netflix app. It's a wonderful concept but it's kind of a POS app.

Power Button Click Sound

I was wondering if anyone knows if it is possible to add sound to the power button when pressed to turn screen off on my N4 CM10.1 JB 4.2.2.
Like iPhone

In settings/sound, there is Screen lock sound. The sound is delayed just a hair after the power button is pushed and until the screen turns off.
iphone?

You should get a noise. You have an issue.

Just to let you know I created a tasker action to beep and vibrate when screen turns off.

Google now delay

Hi everyone,
I have a little bit of dissatisfaction with google now because of the short delay it causes in following various orders. For example, If I say "call so-and-so", it will show the option "Call" and a short timer will begin. The cal will only be made after about 6-7 seconds when the timer runs out. So the only way to make the call immediately is to press "call". This takes away the "voice-commandness" of it. Is there a way to change it so that it makes the call right away?
no
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda premium
Unfortunately no. I think it's there in case it misheard you. For example if you're trying to call someone but instead it heard the wrong name. Now the phone immediately called someone else and it wasted more of your time.
It should be a toggle though.

Phone won't wake during call

Hello,
Anyone having the same issue I'm having? During a normal call my phone won't wake when I remove it from my ear. Even if I push the home button or power button it won't turn on at all. This is a problem especially when I want to end the call or select different options. It seems like the phone is still up against my ear and the touch screen is not active. I don't know of this is a proximity sensor problem software problem. Any help is much associated. Thank you in advance.

Try to clean the proximity sensor.
And type this on your dialer *#0*# to check if there is an issue.

Thanks a lot for the quick reply. I did the test and seems like it's working. Even during the test Sometimes it still doesn't turn off on its own. Any other suggestions? I doubt it right.

Loud Speaker button in S-View

Hello,
Only had the phone a day and I don't know if it's just me but I've noticed that when I use the S-View case with my Note, if I am on a call the loudspeaker button doesn't actually put it on loudspeaker. It doesn't really matter in one way as i can open the cover and press the button but it's a shame it doesn't seem to work.
Is it just me.... what are other people's experience of it ?
I'm on Kit Kat.

Just press the button for few seconds, it will turn green..
