I there any settings or something to adjust proximity sensor? I was trying to turn off screen covering sensor with thumb, but.. no effect.
Does it need any setting or my phone is faulty?
I noticed the same thing on my phone today.
The proximity sensor doesn't work if you've switched off the Automatically adjust backlight option in Settings>Sound & Display>Backlight. There doesn't seem to be any way around this as the proximity sensor doesn't have its own option.
Are you in a call? You need to be calling/receiving a call for it to work.
I agree, I think you need to be in a call for the proximity sensor to work properly.
For me it works fine. And i don´t hade automatic backlight on.

Click to expand...

That's interesting because I can toggle my proximity sensor (whilst in a call) by toggling the automatic backlight. That option must be linked to something else as well.
Screen goes black
I do have the same behavior, when I make a call the phone's screen goes black automatically so if I need to press any key have to press send to get my screen back, then use the keypad, nonsense, is anyone having the same issue ?
for me, the proximity sensor doesn't work at all. I have the automatic backlight setting and yet it still doesn't work. any idea why?
SP300
I just found the solution, I have got the screen protector on "The Original HTC SP300" and is causing the screen to go blank when you do a phone call, If a remove it a little bit from the top left corner and make a call works as spec.
Whenever I talk to someone on my galaxy s fascinate the screen flashes to a black screen then back to normal, does it like every 5seconds.
only happens when on a call am i doing something wrong? if i turn speaker phone on it doesnt do this.
Are you covering up the proximity sensor? This sensor tried to blank the screen while in a call so you don't press buttons.
Hi everybody.
I have problem with proximity sensor. When I make a call, the screen immediately goes black, and the device no longer responds to any button (not even the power button on top). The any way to get the screen back to life is by removing and reinserting the battery.
Is there any solution to the screen not goes black during call??
I’m using cyanogenmod on HD2.
hold the phone's light sensor under a bright light. It is a pain, but the only thing that works for me.
My screen is staying on when I hold it to my cheek on a call. Is there a setting I'm not seeing to turn on the proximity sensor? Shouldn't the screen go black in that situation?
I would Suggest downloading a proximity screen off app and test if sensor is working fine...

I m using maxpro m2 4gb varient.Recently, my phone has been having a problem with the proximity sensor during calls. When I finish a call, or want to look at my screen, the screen does not turn on by itself so I need to put my finger at proximity sensor then screen to light up or else the screen still goes black. This is very annoying! When i turn off ADAPTIVE BRIGHTNESS feature in Display options my problem resolved.what is this problem?? Am i only facing??
I also tested my sensors it is working and also my display is not covered with tampered glass etc..
