[Problem] Proximity Sensor during call - HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps

I've a problem, during the call the proximity sensor don't work... How to fix it?

i have somthing similar... the sensor works most of the time... but too many times it doesn't work correctly... like in this...
i dial a number and press talk... sensor covered... the screen goes off.... when it actualy starts to ring in the earpiece the screen goes on.... i take it off my ear and put it back and the screen turns off again.... when the call is answered on the other side the screen goes on again...
is there a fix to this?.... it happend on different roms and it doesn't happens all the time... and usually i have at least one number that always has this behaviour and at least one that works correct all the time....

Happens to me too. By far the most important problem of the HD2.

no issue ?

What ROM are u running? It may have something to do with it.

I use Clean EX UDT (2.16 version) i will try to upgrade it after download is finishing!
But this problem comes last month on Official ROM 1.66

i've had it on several roms...

****, i will try to send a message to exidler this night! May be he can help us!

I also have this problem since I've made an update to O2 ROM 1.72.207.0 (o2 Germany branded ROM).
With the previous 1.48 ROM (also o2 branded), I've had no problems with the proximity sensor.
Is there any fix for it, or has HTC built a new bug into the new firmware?

No beacause i actualy use a 1.72 ROM (lastest from HTC .:.) and i've this bug
The ROM work 2 weeks and now this ****ing bug comes back !

is there e rom that dowsn't have this bug...?

I think the answer is : No because it's maybe Phone.exe who have this bug!

Do you have installed the lastest camera app? This is the problem, when I install, the sensor in call don´t work.
Cheers!

No any news instal juste Iris and Shamzam

I haven't install the camera update too and have this problem.
I have installed the same apps than before the update from 1.48 to 1.72, so apps shouldn't be the issue.
I have realized that the call menu goes to landscape mode, when this problem occurs.

i too encounter this problem. im using the stock rom 1.66. hmmmm...

Do any of you lot use BsB tweaks? Im asking because i realised that when i use BsB tweaks, i get the bug and also sometimes advanced config aswell.
Try it without BsB but the only thing is you may need hard reset first to ensure all BsB tweaks are gone.
May not be the solution,just a suggestion.
Also, you should try Dutty's Roms as i have never had any problems with his roms.....but mind u, i havn't installed BsB in his rom yet to see if i get the bug as most of the tweaks can be done individually.

Yes may be but i need BsB to disable lock screen and others things...

no BsB... just cleanEX hyperrom 6.5.x... when i'll flash next i'll try to keep for at least a day only the rom and no program installed... i don't know if i'll can....

Yes, I have also installed BsB Tweaks. Will try to uninstall it and that look if the problem is still there. I don't want to make a hardreset, because my phone is finally configured after 3 days after firmware update.
In ROM 1.48 I also had installed BsB Tweaks, so it's very strange.

g-sensor doesn´t work any more - bricked phone ?

Hallo guys,
After playing around one week without any troubles I realized now that the g-sensor doesn´t work any more. The only thing I did today was to install schap’s advanced config and the remote tracker-software and after some time I recognized that my phone gets little bit warm. I wanted to deny a call by turning the phone around but nothing happens. I tried the g-senor application to calibrate, but also here the bubbles don´t move. Also the hard-reset doesn´t help anything.
Any ideas or suggestions for me, I hope I don´t have to return the phone to repair. And another question: Is the phone after a hard-reset really in the point of origin ??
thanks
juwenio
hi mate,
probably in the schaps advanced config, you have disabled the mute function, try to search through for that function in the schaps advanced config and see what it's on now
Also if advanced config doesnt remedy it do a hard reset, most likely a software thing rather than a broken accelerometer.

thanks guys for your help, but i have already restored all settings from advanced config, removed the program and netcf 3.5. and also did 2 hardresets..the problem is still alive
Thats bad luck man.
I'd put it back to the original settings and get it repaired that should be covered in the warranty...
Im guessing its most definatly a manufacurer defect since its pretty difficult to kill an accelerometer, the device would be dead elsewhere before the G sensor if it is something like a drop or an impact.
hallo friends,
wanted to tell you, that my problem has gone... some hours after my last post i tried the g-sensor once and once more and although i didn´t change anything with the phone suddenly g-sensor reacts again... it´s really curious but in the fact till now it doesn´t came back
so, thanks for your help and have a good day

My Raphael is having the same trouble. I noticed the G-sensor not working when I tried to play Teeter. Calibration doesn't work And also other software using the G-sensor is not functioning. In Teeter the ball gets stuck in one corner and won't move. In calibration (under settings) the green indicators move and the text Calibrating" appears. After calibration the green indicator move to the uppermost and rightmost corner of the vertical resp. horizontal indicator. Running ROMeos 1.22 Dutch version with 1.02.25.19 radio.
Already tried a hard reset. Didn't do the trick. Any ideas?
I have had a similar problem wherein the G-Sensor was not working. I tried restoring the registry back to the state prior to the G-Sensor got busted but nothing seemed to work. I logged the problem with HTC Customer support. In addition to other regular things they asked me the S/N of my device. To check out the S/N of the device I had to remove the battery. It was out for a few minutes and when I put it back I thought of re-running the G-Sensor and surprisingly enough it has been working since then .
I don't know how long it would continue to work but i tried running the G-Sensor for 5-7 times and it worked. I hope it works with you as well.
Just to let you know, I even tried hard-rest twice in the past but it didn't work.
Thanx for the reply.
I'll try this and post the results here.
Not working
Tried everything.
had my hopes set on software. Seems to be a hardware problem
Going to restore ROM to original and hand it in for repair.
G-sensor fixed
Finally I returned the Touch pro with stock ROM for repair (just before warranty expired)
Pick up service at the office, and within one week the phone was send back, repaired.
Kudo's for HTC service.

camera works but viewfinder black

Hi,
I have a very strange problem... I have a german MDA Vario IV (Raphael) and I recently flashed ROMEOS 1.12, then HTC StockROM and after a couple of days it first happened, that my camera viewfinder is completely black. The camera, however, works, i.e. it takes pictures which I can view in the album.
When I tap the screen in camera mode, I see the 3 symbols, but when I tap the preferences-wheel, nothing happens.
When Romeos 1.40 (German) came out, I flashed it - and I still have the problem. I don't quite understand it, as it worked first with the HTC Rom and after about 14days it stopped working.
Do you have any help?
I just had the same problem. Fixed by doing a hard reset...
did you flash a new radio?
I just registered to report this same issue.
I just picked up my fuze today, and was going through the steps in the noob guide before I decided to stop and just let the phone install the regular software so I could at least activate it before a new bill kicked in before the account got cancelled.
Right before I stopped going through the noob guide, I got as far as doing a soft reset right before the installing ATT bloatware and was removing some options in the guide and restarting. Then, since I just wanted to activate the phone (I had no SD card to safely try out all the steps in the noob guide, and wanted to wait for it), I did a hard reset.
After I activated my phone, I've been trying out my camera and it just shows a black screen. If I touch the screen the three buttons show up and clicking on the buttons don't do anything. Though, if I hold the enter key it clicks and takes a picture which shows up in my album.
I'm going to wait till my SD card comes in before I do another hard reset to do the install again. Hopefully the hard reset fixes the issue.
Still no one else with this issue? I have flashed NATF 4.5 as well as energy 2.0 . I have changed to two different radios and this problem has persisted. Everything works fine at first, but then within a couple of days it goes black. Everything is exactly as others have reported. Pictures take, the touch screen menus work ( selecting any setting ).... its just the viewfinder that is acting goofy. Soft resetting it will occasionally make it work again. It makes me feel as though some of us have some software somewhere that isnt acting as it should. I googled the issue to no avail.
Any gurus able to shed some light on this matter?
Currently running:
HardSpl 1.9
EnergyRom 2.0
Radio 1.02.25.32
I am running Shep's 3.0 rom with the new 1.12.25.19 radio and I have just recently had this viewfinder problem arise as well. I am about to flash Shep's new 3F and will check the camera after hard reset.
Is anyone running additional programs when this arises? I had thought there was a conflict with freecaddie as I was on the golf course when I noticed the problem but maybe this is more widespread?

Of the programs you listed, Skyfire is the only one I am also running. I just completed my flash and turned the camera on prior to installing any apps, cabs, etc... and the viewfinder worked fine.
I am in the process of adding my customizations back on, doing a PIM restore, and installing cabs and will edit my post later to report whether it continues to function correctly.
After setting things up the way I like them and a full day of use, the viewfinder still works fine. I am baffled as to the cause but as long as its works I won't complain.
To those still having the problem, I would recommend a hard reset at a minimum or perhaps try a new rom.

This was an issue with RRE's roms a while back. Not sure what he did to fix it but I know he tweaked a flashed new versions about 100 times in one day! I would post the question in your respective rom's threads and see if the cooks have a better idea. I would bet that there is a file or setting common to all of the roms listed here that is causing the problem.
Im running the stock rom in a 1 1/2 month old Fuze
The Black screen happens to me, if too much sunlight gets thru on superfine settings. (i hold it facing directly into the sun) It seems to blow out the picture (goes all white) -then theres no display at all (black) unless i exit camera and restart.
Camera viewfinder is black
Hi,
there is a fix for this on the htc asia site, if you go to the support tab and look at the downloads for touchpro, I am not sure its for all phone as it asked for my serial number and told me it was not for my phone, on this site at least it seemed to be for hong kong, singapore & china, Perhaps check the htc site for your location.
Good Luck

Dutty's Rom (serious bugs)

Okay So I followed a video tutorial that said right now the Ruu_Signed_Duttys_WM6.1_5.2.19700_Hybrid V2_1_65.14.06[CubeV2]
was the best rom out there. So i installed it. I like the rom alot except it has some bugs that I cannot overlook, was wondering if there was a fix or a recommended upgrade from this Rom.
The bug I hate the most is the keyboard. First it was mapped wrong, but I installed the Tilt fix cab, which fixed that. But now the keyboard spacebar lags. So if i type at a decent speed the spacebar doesnt register being pressed at the right time. For example if i typed : "Hello, how are you doing today? " it would come out as " Hello,h owa rey oud oingt oday"
At first i thought it was maybe my error, that I developed some sort of bad habit of pressing the spacebar at the wrong time. But i sat there and was careful and indeed its the phones fault.
The next bug which I just noticed recently since I havnt had a reason to use it since now, is the video on the camera. When I press record it only records for 9 seconds even though I have it set to no limit. If i keep trying some times it goes past 9 seconds but the video freezes at that point, the counter still goes up and I'm forced to soft reset the phone to get out of it. I tried installing the HTC camera cab , with no effect.
Should i change roms or Is there a fix for this?
thanks
I don't believe dutty has touched these ROMs in almost a year now, and he has moved onto the HD, I believe.
Better to look at some of the more recent ROMS, like Garmin, PDA Corner, etc. and forget working with the Dutty ones.

Welcome to 2009 from 2008 , Dutty did so great work in this forum last year, but you need an updated YouTube video. Where did you get a video saying that was the best ?
As stated above, start exploring 2009 , you will love it here
I doubt you will find anyone with new information. Have a search/read through the Threads from dutty or try flashing one of the newer ROMs, a few have been suggested above.
Thanks

Screen turning itself off?

Just wondering if anyone has encoutered a problem with the screen turning itself off. It is not a settings issue but the screen randomly turns itself off in the middle of being used so i am guessing it mght be something to do with the light sensor perhaps?
Well if anyone else has the same problem or can offer some sort of explanation i would be very interested to hear about it.
Thanks in advance
i think this might be related to autolock. if you have that enabled, disable the screen dimming and let it turn off after say 2 minutes. then you should be ok.

I've had a similar issue recently - suddenly the screen started to switch off after 30 seconds without use, no matter what settings I configured in the energy system settings. No explanation, probably a bug in the 6.1 stock ROM. (I'm on another ROM now...)

Ditto.
Own ROM 6.1 (nothing special - really just Google maps and teeter removed)
Apps:
4 Column Start Menu.cab
FdcSoft TaskMgr 3.1.cab
GoogleMaps.CAB
GpsCycleComputer_3.114.CAB
htcAddicts cleanRAM v1.6.cab
MobileTweet.CAB
NETCFv35.cab
NetworkPlugin_1_0_30468_1.CAB
PocketShield.CAB
rar.ppc_arm.cab
SoftReset_Suspend.CAB
same here. tried some reg tweaks but none disabled poweroff after 30 seconds
it happens to me every time after i use igo8,
so my solution is to go to the MANILA power setting (not the default windows setting) and turn DIM off.
cannot find manila power settings. where are they?

i have Tom's 6.5 rom so when i goto regular settings it takes me to manila style setting & not the default one.
I have that problem to ?
I have a 6.1 windows, what can I do to deal with this problem ?
Thankx
in power settings enable & disable dim it will fix this but only till next time... i do it after every time i use igo8.
this is especially annoying when using the topaz as hard disk or navigating via tomtom. hope they will bring out a fix soon.
Think my problem was slightly similar as I was using the original shipped ROM. Well phone is with HTC now in for screen repair so hopefully the problem will be solved.
I'm guessing it was probably down to an install of some 3rd party application. anyway will repost after i get my td2 back tomorrow

[Q] CyanogenMod 10 Beta Builds [4.1.2][ANDROMADUS 3.x][Frontcam]

I'm using the above ROM on my Desire S and am having issues with the proximity sensor. I had the HTC ICS ROM before this and all was OK but since installing CM10 the screen stays active when I am on a call and the phone pressing against my face is activating all sorts of apps and screens whilst I'm talking. It seems as though the screen is not switching off and de-activating.
I have downloaded a proximity testing app and it is showing that the proximity sensor is working OK.
Is anyone else having this problem with this ROM?
I can't post in the Developers forum as I don't have permissions yet.

The ROM worked fine for me as long as I have used it. How you've installed it? Full wiping or dirty flashing? If so I suggest you to make a full wipe and then reflash the ROM.
sent from a long time ago in a galaxy far far away...
This rom is not 100% done/developed, iam having issues too like Force closed apps.
it works for me. don't have this issue. probably try reflash it see what happens
I use this release since October...It's very smooth!
Everythings works fine in 16/11 build except gallery setting that' doesn't load...
Updated to 06/12, i performed a clean install and it's now work perfectly, still remain the gallery settings bug.
i´m using the 1116 build and everthing works for me

Thanks for the replies.
I have found that the screen disable is working fine on normal calls. It is Viber that has the problems, it also has the problem of not ringing when an incoming call is coming in. So I am putting it down to the Viber app and not this ROM. Otherwise the ROM is fine apart from the panorama screen problem in camera.
An update to Viber has come through today so I shall see how that goes.
