Proximity sensor new update - Thunderbolt General

Its even worse now. I cannot get the screen to turn off at all during a call. Anyone else try?

Mine works much better then before!

I have made several test calls and even placing my entire hand over the sensor it won't shut off the screen.

I've had similar issues. It hasn't been so severe that the screen wouldn't turn off at all. My screen turns on and off while on a call. I've been looking for an app to recalibrate the proximity sensor but haven't found one. The DHD has an app but none yet for the TB...

Could be the kernel you are using too.

I'll be watching for a fix also. I'm having the proximity sensor issues of the screen turning off and on constantly during a call. I'm running BAMF 1.4 and kernel 4.4.2 OC'd to 1.2 with smartass gov.

BAMF 1.4 isn't the updated base that was leaked. So you don't have the update.
OP - What rom and kernel are you running?

I too suggest trying a different kernel. I was having issues before with the screen not coming after moving phone away from my face on ziggy's kernel. Switched Kernel and on the new radio and it now works perfect.

I mistyped. I am running BAMF 1.5 (remix) with supplied 4.4.2 kernel OC'd to 1.2 with smartass gov.
If I continue having issues this week at work, maybe I'll try going back to 4.3c which is what I was using on stock ROM before BAMF 1.5 (remix). If issues persist, I'll try 4.3b for first time. If issues persist, I'll cuss and live with it
Appreciate the responses and resources!

Also try changing the governor. I have noticed that smartass still has some quirks.

Go to ROM manager and download OC
It's not there anymore.
Yea I wonder why iit was pulled. Worked great for me...
Thankfully, if it was already downloaded, it's still in your clockworkmod/ folder. Rejoice, those who have already downloaded it.
Direct download link is in that thread.
been running it at 1.4 since last night and loving every minute of it. runs greats, not one problem..

Interesting. I'm not seeing much of a difference. Quadrant scores went from 1611 on adryn's 1.8 kernel to 1789 on the 1.5ghz. Seems very low for both. Wonder what's giving me issues...
Sent from my ADR6400L using XDA App
I get 2200+ on quadrant at 1.5ghz.. and 2700+ at 1.8ghz using Drod's kernels..
Can't wait to try his 1.9+ kernels soon
This is absolute insanity, I can't believe this but I was running this kernel to the max (1.5ghz) and the performance was insane. 2200 - 2500 quadrant scores (even one 2532). Well, drained my battery to 15% after about 3 hrs using "ondemand" scaling. So I flashed adrenelyn's 1.9, phone ran perfectly smoothly but I wasn't happy anymore with kernel scores in the 17's and 18's. So I reflashed drod's kernel and have been running at 1209 mhz (2064, 2216, 2092 quads.), phone is still super responsive and it is now 2 in the morning, I have been running it since roughly2pm and I have 37% battery left 12 hrs. later (ondemand). I have been using the crap out of this phone: 2.5 hrs. phone calls, 1.5 web time, texts all day, followed twitter, did some theme changes. I found my go to kernel for now.
Tried the 1.8 but SetCpu widget kept reporting 1.8 even after I slowed it down. Going into the app I could tell it was follow my settings. Went back to 1.5. Temp to high for me even though stable. I might try conservative setting if widget reports right.

You have to disable the Perflock disabler in SetCPU options and you can downclock it
where is this 1.8ghz kernel?

If the 1.8 is the same as the 1.5 you don't need to disable Perflock. It has already been been disabled.
Edit: I just read in drod2169 Twitter that in order to lower the clock speed on the 1.8 you do need to disable the Perflock...sorry.

The G2x has no use for these quirks. Nvidia has some special battery saving things in the phone. That's why our phone does not use CPU governors. Just use the phone as is. You can over clock but don't set CPU profiles. The nvidia chip does everything itself.

Thanks for the info, I never knew that, coming from other Android phones. I was wondering why no kernel had CPU governor options enabled.

sorry man but the apk was takin down for a bit.. somthing about the PID making the app shutdown after being off for so long. script still works, and is recommended for now. ill post when apk is back up
thx also what are the permissions for the script cause im using root explorer
which kernels do this already?
I am pretty sure that I was running on only one core when on Trinity ELP when setting it at 750 MHz and lower. Also, the newer Faux 050b6 through 050b9 go to a single core limited to no more than 503 MHz whenever the screen is off.
Is anyone aware if the Trinity T15 shuts down the second core ever?
How about the stock LG or standard CM kernel?
How about Faux's kernels for stock based ROM's? I have recently been on Kwes and Buru stock 2.3.4 ROM's using Faux 014b2 at stock voltage. If I keep the MHz low, I swear my battery performance is better than it ever was using undervolted ELP on CM7 based ROM's.
I just did 35 hours :victory: of moderate usage (about 2 hours talk, 3 hours wifi web, 1 hour text) and still had 45% left in the tank! - With the stock battery that's nearly a year old now...:good:

Just checked this out! Fastest way to drain battery ever. My screen didn't go dark completely, it just dimmed down and stayed like that. Luckily this is a script run by Script Manager, and it's activated when you turn off the screen.
Seriously not recommended

Funny, it has been working fine for me. For anyone who doesn't use an app like setCPU and is on the OLD baseband this would be great. This on the NEW bb WITH a screen off profile is even better. It's still not pre-new base band like drain, but I don't wake up with a mostly drained battery. I just looked at faux's release notes and it sounds pretty tailored to the new bb, so I think I will see how his does alone.

Excuse me folks but alot of people can't use the new faux kernel and Jarvis kernel isn't exactly stable on all phones niether, the guy is simply sharing something he found, what about Harsh, Morfic, etc??? This works wonderfully with morfics kernel on Cm7.2 stable even with undervolting, I get huge battery saving now, so be easy gentlemen

Unofficial CM9 ROM questions

According to the OP, the torch is supposed to be a working feature. However, I have not been able to get mine to work at all. Was just curious if this was an oversight or something I should correct on my device?
Additionally, I would like to know what a safe and stable OC speed would be for my Inspire 4G.... I'm a bit of a speed-freak but do not want to jeopardise anything.

Are you sure your camera LED's are in good working condition? Speed wise, you can overclock it to almost anything you want. If it is overclocked too much, your phone will just freeze and you might have to format everything to ROM default to get out of it. I think you can go up to 1.2 if I remember correct. I always underclock my ROM so that it saves on battery.
EDIT: I found out that it is an issue with the ROM, follow this thread in DHD, you might need a different kernel.

As for the torch, I'm too up to my neck with commissioned artwork to reflash so I'll use the lazy fix and use my video flash/LED if I just must have one.

To go back to the thing about Torch, it its working in the 2.0 release and the test 2.4 release as well. I recommend the 2.4, it has better battery life.

[Q] What is your favorite flavor combination for your G2x?

Let me try this simpler as no one replied.
What ROM and Kernel is your favorite combination for Gingerbread and/or ICS?
Any major bugs with a workaround?
And at one point I had an ICS ROM that let MX Player play with no choppiness but absolutely cannot remember which ROM I had flashed! Is anyone running ICS and able to playback videos? I keep reading and reading and not finding an answer on that one. I understand that it won't capture video, but that is ok. Anyone?
I'm currently using MIUI 204130 with the stock kernel underclocked to 816 to save battery but this ROM worked well with Faux's 052 also. So far this has been the best set up I've tried as far as stability, performance, and battery life.
I was also using TonyP's Paranoid Android (versions 6-10, haven't tried 11 yet) and was able to play video just fine using MX player without issues.
My favorite setup is what's in my Sig. Can't tell you about mx player, though, haven't tried it

Thank you guys! I'll give those flavors a shot!

I tried your setup, and it ran smooth. But I am dependant on Wifi Calling APP and it seems when I activate it I get "process com.android.phone has stopped, every 20-30 secs. I tried setting up with stock CM9 kernel, as well as older Harsh kernerls. Still same issue so swapped back to Hellfire Phenoix 2.3 w/ Fauxs 052.
Any suggestions on the com.android.phone crash? I can't find a definite fix on the Development forums. I had this issue with Hellfire Sandwhich as well.
Think there is an issue with Tmo Wifi calling app and ICS.

You really don't need super charger with that combination. I have the same and I find no lag when multi tasking.
At OP, if interested in ics. Try paranoid Android. It's a hybrid phone/tablet ROM.it's default kernel is good enough but you can try harsh kernel with it as well.
