Hi every rom I try when I make a call my screen turns off and its hard to get it back on is there an app to stop screen going off it was easy in miui as you had the option to turn it off but ICS or sence you cant .and if I get to someones voicemail I can't hang up so I get the screen back on and half the time I have to pull battery out which is anoying
Bit of a noob question but if I upgrade my hboot will this fix the problem I have as noone has mentioned my problem

Add that to your build.prop file.
Hi mate where about to i put this line in the build prop do i just add it or replace it with its old one

Hi, i had also the issue with proximity sensor, tested by i.e. sensordump app shown no activity at all so I thoght it is broken. I sent it to HTC service centre for repair. They did just recalibration of the sensor and all is working fine now.
Seems there is no any tool nor any hidden service menu on HTC Desire like i.e on ZTE devs that enables you to recalibrate it by yourself :-(

Tried googling it but didn't find anything exactly like this.
Basically when I have auto brightness there are times when i won't move my phone whatsoever or any lighting around it and the brightness go from dim to bright couple secs back to dim and so on for no reason.
Could it be a faulty sensor or firmware related?
I had stock and few custom roms and its happening on all of them.
Idk if I should send to htc for repkacemt or are any you experiencing same thing and expect this to be fixed with update?
It's so annoying and although I could put a constant screen brightness I don't want to.
Thanks in advanced !!

I find that a lot of times when I'm holding my phone in landscape that my left hand covers the sensor. As I'm typing it will move enough to generate a change, and then move back to undo it. Just my .02.

Yes I don't hold in landscape and I will literally just put phone on table and the brightness goes back and forth without stopping.
And I'm positive no light is changing or ne movements ...

I think you have what I have and maybe its just a faulty sensor?
Then again if it gets brigght it dies adjust accordingly and otherway around its just it never stops and imagine reading even this forum at night on phone and every eight seconds gets brighter and eight seconds later gets dim and so on.
It's so annoying I think I'm gonna send my phone in
I'm just scared to because i had no other issues at all that others had and don't wanna risk a different problem ....

Can't figure out how to even find out how to figure out why my screen doesn't rotate seams a lot of sensors aren't working after it downloaded one of the test apps from the market. PS I pre thank any who help seems very hard to thank people for me for some reason. That also first work LOL..

Try this. Menu, settings, display. Is there a check-box for auto-rotation?

I haven't had Sense in a while, but look for G-Sensor calibration in settings and do it. Reboot afterward.

Sometimes it just may need a restart to fix the auto-rotation. Reboot should fix it.
Sounds like you have a broken accelometer or its on its way going out. I had same problem g sensor won't calibrated at all now says abort everytime restarts do nothing.
I can't do anything that requires accelometer/g sensor and sounds like you have same problem.
Sorry man .
Reset your phone to default settings there's a great download in inspire development that will revert everything for you the call HTC and they will fix it for free as long as you restore everything to stock froyo or gb ruu. And you havnt tampered with anything etc etc .
HTC said 6-9 days for my phone to get fixed and back to me

Hey Guys, I finally got my Sensation back from repair, of course its completely stock now. I sent it to repair because Vibration didn't worked anymore. I thought it could be possibly got cracked by myself applying s-off with junoptobear (i don't have any idea if its correctly written). Do you have any experience with that?

Edit: My Sensation is a Vodafone Germany branded Device with ICS (4.0.3)
different roms have different settings for the vibration feedback, but if your on stock then maybe your phone is still broken? or it works fine now? also make sure haptic / vibrate feedback in settings is checked.
I think you got me wrong, it got repaired and its working now but I don't know how it broke. There are 2 reasons I could think of why vibration broke, the first one is that datrepair (german HTC repair partner) ****ed up the vibration while repairing the cracked screen on my device before it was rooted or myself applying s-off. I don't know if it worked before because I didn't really used the phone before.

I suspect it was the screen repair that caused the issue. I recently went through juopunutbear to S-OFF my replacement/replacement phone. I can't see how that process would have screwed it up.
No. S-off did not break your vibration.

Vibration and haptic feedback is coded in kernel afaik.. And soff process don't touch that.. In fact soff only modifies bootloader and some flags to get permanent soff

I thought it could've broken the hardware (the wire-trick). I did it like described on one of the pins and the sd casing (I'd say I did nothing wrong because it was s-off after that). So my exact question should be: Could the wire trick possibly damage the vibration motor? I'm sorry that I was not that precise.

the wire trick technically does grounding on that pin ..which takes the phone to download mode for some time after first tap and then back to normal with the next tap..thats all ..i dont see any way that can dmage the vibration motor ...and afaik i havent seen any facing this issue after SOFF
Thats what I wanted to know, thank you, I'll s-off my device again with no fear.

I can confirm 100% that after screen change motor stop work in HTC Sensation. Maybe different part revision, wich i doubt is the case cuz replacement part is working fine and picture is perfect.
What is funny, i try fix this vibration problem after screen change for a few days now, replaced with new on PCB at the end just to see that it isnt workin again
By accident, when i got call i drop phone on table, maby 5cm height drop, and vibration start working for few sec then stop again, and it always go on if i hit phone at time when it should be working.
Still havent found solution to this.
OK so I've been using bruce2728s CM X for some time now. I love how smooth it runs, however the proximity sensor is glitchy in the current ( 10/15) build. I know its not hardware related because I restored to an ARHD back up I had and the sensor works like a champ.
Now when I say its glitchy if I make a call and don't get someone to answer I lose any screen functionality. Just black and unresponsive. If they do pick up I only get my screen back once they disconnect from the call.
I have done multiple downloads, multiple installs, and full wipe installs. Nothing I can think of has fixed it. I got no help in the ROM thread so thought I'd try the Q&A section. Just looking to get the sensor working. Please help.

The proximity sensor is not done yet its very buggy. Try ViperS rom, it works fine
