Hi,
My canvas 2 screen was broken so i got it replaced but after that it seems there is a problem with proximity sensor. While making or recieving the calls my screen turns off and it doesnt turn on. I have tried some apps but no help.
Please let me know how can I fix it. Is it possible or disable proximity sensor completely in A110. Else, an alternative solution would also help.
Is it possible to use power button, Menu button durijg call to turn screen on/Off.
Please help. I am struggling since many days but couldnt find a solution this proble.
Thanks
Nilesh

Hi all!
I'm new to the wonderful world of Android (former WebOS-User), so please bare with me.
My brand-new Sensation seems to have a problem with the proximity sensor/light sensor: During a call, the screen will go off when I put the phone nexto to my ear, so far so good, but when I finish the call, the screen will go on for a second, then turn off and stay off. Pressing the power button won't do anything. The only thing that seems to work is to put the phone next to a strong light source and the lockscreen will come back on.
Is there anything I can do about this?
Thanks for your input!
No one else having this issue ?
Hi, I've been having some problems with my proximity sensor lately.. I have only noticed it during my first call last January in which my girlfriend called me and upon finish I checked my screen to see that it's still black, tried to power on/ power off, but only the capacitive buttons would light not the screen.
I have used Phone tester to check my proximity sensor and tried it.. It says Waiting... then I put my finger on top of it, it says Near.. After I remove my finger, it's still stuck on Near.. So clearly , my proximity sensor is operational but is at fault or bugged.
Bottom line is, does anyone know how to calibrate or fix my issue? I have a Konka V981 phone, rebranded here in my country to what's now called Cosmos X2.. With an MTK 6589 chipset.
Thank you in advance to whoever could help me solve my problem. Hoping to find the solution from the professionals in this forum and/ or site.

try flashing a custom rom
Oh I forgot to mention that I've flashed multiple ROMs onto my unit but the problem still persists... I've tried about 6 roms and all of them have the same output, my proximity sensor is still at fault.. From Waiting... to Near... and never going back to Far.. It should be, or the normal should be near upon putting my finger or something in front of it, to far, removing the object, or my finger from it..
I tried a Note 3 rom, whereas I noticed that the proximity sensor wasnt needed for call sessions, whereas I could just power off power on when Im on call so my face wont randomly tap the screen and make a mess.. But I don't want to keep the Note 3 rom, so I flashed back to our modified Stockrom Android 4.2.2.. And then the problem came back..
If only someone could help me calibrate or at most turn it off.. Id be grateful.. But Id be more grateful if we could just calibrate it rather than turning it off
The problem is like this:
SOMETIMES when I call someone, the screen turns off without approaching the phone to my ear. The screen is not turning off by pressing the power button or the volume buttons (I enabled using GravityBox to turn on the screen using the volume keys).
After I end up the call, after a couple of seconds, the phone comes back to normal.
Once again, this behavior appears just SOMETIMES! Usually I don't have this problem!
Any ideas to how so solve this problem?

I wouldn't worry too much about it, its just a glitch, it happens to me sometimes too , when i put it on speaker and i get close to the phone , the screen turns off and it comes back after a while. it doesn't bother me too much. It might be that the sensor is too sensitive. Have you tried a custom rom ?
This issue happens to my son's phone too.
Anyway, it shouldn't be random, please double check if it happens ALWAYS after a phone reboot, this is the behaviour of mine
I want the moderator to ban me.
display issue
Hello,
I have started to face the same issue mentioned above.
On googling I came across the motorola forum (google search: Moto G Proximity Sensor Software Issue)
It seems the issue is being discussed there and apparently they need more moto g users with this issue to help them out solve this.
On using z device i noticed the proximity sensor value stuck at 3 with no change covered/not covered (sensor) [Phone running without restart for 6+ hours]
After restarting the phone the sensor value in z device changes. 100 (uncovered) to 3 when covered.
I will keep checking this every few hours to see when does the proximity sensor stop working without restarting the phone. (uptime)
Can the DEV's here help us out? looks like Motorola may take some time in finding a solution to this issue.
This seems to have went away with 4.4.3 and the new Dialer app.

how can I disable the proximity sensor ?
Comment:
Hey guys I broke my phone's touchscreen glass (and the proximity sensor stopped working after that)
now when someone calls me the screen become's UnTochAble , so I can not for example dial a number or Hang Up when I am in a call .
I undrestsand it is because the phone's proximity sensor that thinks the phone is close to my ear and it shouldn't allow any button to be pressed. I cannot use my phone even after the call is disconnected...screen dosent turn on and the proximity sensor dosent stop
how can I disable this feature so I can still use my phone ?
Suggestion..
Since I am on a different ROM I cannot tell you exactly the steps necessary.. But go to settings>accessibility.. There you should be able to find the solution.. Also there is an option power button ends call..
If your phone is rooted you may use GravityBox to change the way the proximity sensor works..:good:
Yes my phone is rooted..im using stock mmx os ..ive tried the power button method .but it dosent work.. Pls give me a way to disable the sensor... Please

if u use gravitybox, go to power tweaks, enable proximity wakeup
When I make a call and hold the device to my ear, the screen goes off. And that's fine. But when I remove the device from my ear, the screen is still black. I say goodbye to the caller, and to interrupt the conversation I have to press the power button or double tapp screen to wake the screen. Is there any option to wake the screen more actively?
The same problem here....
I hope they will fix this in future updates. My friend dont have this problem. On other forum some guy told me that i need move phone and i will get phone wake up. On my other phone (s9+) i dont have this problem. This problem have many s10 series phone. I read that the problem is because proximity sensor position. And AOD dont turn off when is phone in a pocket or screen down wich use more battery.
I tried old good wipe cache in recovery and...it's good, problem is gone.
Try it too!
I try. It didn't help
Same problem as well, it doesn't happen always but often enough to annoy me...
yeah, same problem here man
same problem.. if you turn your phone upside down it will get the movement and show the screen but don't think this is actually a good workaround! does anyone know if there is something to do for it?
