Need Help related to proximity sensor - Zenfone 2 Laser Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I am using zenphone 2 laser ZE550KL and yesterday my touch pad got crack... and thats why my proximity sensor not working properly as broken glass is on the sensor... so i wnt to disable is completely... i mean it is like my phone doesn't have proximity sensor... any guys help me out here.... the only solution i have in my mind is to open my phone's motherboard and remove the proximity sensor... But i don't wnt to do that... i wnt to fix it by only software... plz help guys.

You should bring your phone to ASUS for glass fixing
If you using LineageOS, go to Settings => Buttons => Turn on End call by Power Button. This may be helping for a time

Dude i don't have problems with calling... but my double tap to wakup not working also when i am using third party apps like messenger imo etc my screen goes completely black... then i have only one option to restart my device

You can find the proximity sensor file in your root folder, maybe if you delete it or renamed it, it will disable the sensor.

Where..

[Q] Disable Proximity in call?

My proximity sensor is dead. Stuck in WinMo 6.5 and Android. Is there a way I can disable it and have the in call settings use the gyro instead? Or maybe not blank the screen at all?
Thanks!

I found a way to wake the screen back up without yanking the battery. I can give it USB power and it will wake. Still sucks but is better than reboot.
Anyone know how to kill prox?
TY
Same here, very anoying.
When headphone is plugged in i dont have any problems.
I had the same problem, so I got libsensors source from HyperDroid, commented out lines that do proximity sensor initialization and got sensors.leo.so that shows to phone that there are no proximity sensor.
There are 3 identical files in the attachment - simply copy them over into /system/lib/hw on the device.
But, actually, repairing sensor would be better solution...

That's what I've been doing. I sent it in to get the prox fixed and they shipped it back still broke.

[Q] Proximity Sensor Bug

Hi!
Every time I receive a call, the screen shuts down due to the proximity sensor.
But after I take it away from my ears, the screen doesn't light up.
This is not a sensor bug, I checked.
Can it be due to an outdated modem?
Is anyone else facing the same problem, and has anyone found a fix yet?
Dear id74em8,
TRY THIS..this should hopefully fix your issue with the proximity sensor on the phone
1. Go to Dialpad.
2. Dial *#*#7769#*#*
3. A proximity sensor calibration window will pop up.
4. Press “Start”
5. The sensor will be automatically calibrated, a message will appear “ Calibration Good”
HIT THANKS IF THIS WORKS
Cheers !!!

screen off, when talk end - proximity sensor

I from Poland and little speak english. But try describe my problem.
When I choose/answer call, screen turn off. Is ok.
But when I end speak, screen no turn on. I must press power.
Then I see screen lock.
I check proximity sensor in androidsensor. Is ok.
I think is problem in software. Turn on needlessly screen lock.
ı had same issue.I solved that with uninstall update of asus dialer ,contacts and calling screen, and now it is working very well.
I use dialer one. Asus dialer I uninstall.
Do you have screen protector on it? Is there any hole at proximity sensor?

This.. I had the same problem, solved it by cutting a piece of my screen protector over proximity sensor
In titanium backup I no see asus dialer.
But shopplay is.
I uninstall update and now ok.
thx ahmt142
I have the same issue, a double tap on unlock button wakes the screen again. Dont make calls that much so no big deal
You can check if prox sensor is bad by opening calculator app and typing ".12345+=" (no quotes) and testing sensor by moving had close and away. Also cheap screen/tempered glass without hole for sensor, causes issues

Poco M3 - Proximity sensor error after lcd change

Hello everyone
I have just changed my Poco M3 's lcd screen (I bought one with the frame already glued to it).
When I turn it back on, There is random messages like "remove your hand from in front of the screen", and when I make a call, the screen remains black, and we can't have access to the screen, in short, the proximity sensor has a problem.
This problem sometimes happened before I changed the screen, but it is constant now.
Does Anyone know if this is a known issue?
Can you help me locate this proximity sensor ?
Is there a plug I did'nt connected correctly, or is it inside the screen?
Can the sensor functions be disabled? In the call settings, I couldn't find how...
If the proximity sensor is really defective, should the sensor allways detec something, or should it detect nothing?
Thank you
i have sam problem ,,,,any solution ?

Yes.
I had the same issue.
In all the tutorials in you tube they noy showing the rubber part that laying between the proximity sensor and the screen.
So when you are replacing the screen and use a screen with a frame, you need to move the bottom and the top boards from the old frame to the new one, and when you are doing thay there is this tinny rubber, that is probably pop's out when you are pulling the top electric board and you not even know it.
I just realized that it missing until I gave up, and start to clean my working area, and suddenly I sat it.
You can sent me email to [email protected],
I can help you
Hi, thanks for the answer, I just figured this out yesterday, and now mine works too!!!
