My proximity sensor is not working and i can not disconnect the call as screen do not wake up when i remove phone from my ear. I m using android 4.2.1 modified ROM and always wake option is not there in call setting or display setting. I think my ROM is xperia based. I m planning to change my phone after 2 or 3 months so i do not want to spend money on this. Is there any module in Xposed installer or any app with the help of which i can keep my screen always ON while on call.

Try this app from Play Store: Proximity Screen Off Lite
If it is useful and you want Full Version, either google "Proximity Screen Off Pro" or buy it

I have tried searching for some time and have encountered several different opinions on how to resolve the issue however, none so far work.
When taking a call or when placing a call after connecting to the call the screen goes blank in what seems to be 2 seconds even though I still have the unit in my hand and not up to my face and I am not touching/blocking the proximity sensors.
What is the definitive answer on what I can do to make a change to the settings to prevent the keypad/screen from blanking out while in a call?
I have the display settings set to keep the screen on when not in a call to 10 minutes and always on when connected to a power source. For the life of me I cannot find a resolution to this problem.

have you got a proximiti sensor? Meaby you screen film blocked it
I think your proximity sensor is broken.. try to search in play store for "proximity sensor" i've heard of an app that can turn off your proximity sensor when calling but i don't know for rooted devices or non rooted

Nope, I do have a screen film installed however, it clears and does not block the 2 proximity sensors on the top front of the phone.
I installed a Proximity Sensor APP from the market and it registers the device as working and activates the sensor at about 2 inches away.
I did notice today that when using the phone to call T-Mobile voice mail the dial pad does NOT blank during the call.
Does Android have a config file anywhere for this or is the screen blank setting built in to the system or perhaps the dialing app itself?
Before I updated to the minor 4.2.2 update (something like 12.15.15), I could launch the camera app without waking my phone by just twisting (like what we see on the moto x commercial) the phone. After the update, I had to wake my phone up to use the twist gesture. Anyone having this issue?
A side note, my active display sometimes failed me in the middle of the night.

I have not had any issues with the twist to launch camera from sleep, I use it a lot.
When active display failed, did it cause a Force Close? it may have been a one time issue, if it reoccurs you could try clearing the cache for the active display app in Settings -> Manage Applications, or even your device cache (there is a guide on how to do this floating around here somewhere).

Are you using an app like lock screen policy to disable lock screen widgets?

Yup that was the issue, thanks. Disabled the camera also disabled that feature.

Ok so the camera issue is solved. But I found out I have some minor issues with the proximity sensor. Sometimes the active notification will not work when I moved the phone and it automatically sleeps (locks) when I use the phone. Lastly after making a call, the screen will not wake up and waking it via power button is ok. So my guess is that the proximity sensor issue, however rebooting the phone seems to solve the issue for a day or two.

Have u recently installed any application which uses proximity sensor?
It may happen because of it.

Raviji,

My canvas magnus proximity sensor is not working properly. During calls screen gets blank correctly but the screen not get on automatically after removing phone from rear. It turns on only when either call gets disconnected or i have to press power button to on it.. When i check sensor via proximity sensor app it shows that it is working right.
Strangely of i use custom rom then it's working correctly. But not in stock ROM.
PLS provide some fix.
Thanks in advance

Can any developer provide the same fix for our canvas magnus also??
Their is a BUILDPROP tweak for it if u want i can make a flash-able zip to solve it !
I have a common problem in all ROMs I'm installing . whenever I answer a call or dial a call my screen goes off as if proximity sensor is activated and doesn't turn on even when I take it away from my ear or press my power button. Screen doesn't turn on at all during call.
Phone remains fine for a day or two after I wipe cache etc from recovery but again the problem starts. This happens in all custom roms and also in rooted stock ROM. My device is XT 1055.
Kindly suggest any solution as it causes lot of inconvenience.

Your device is a Moto X (1st generation/2013 )? A quick Google search would tell you this is a Proximity Sensor issue, it is device specific whether anything can be done or not, so you might want to check your device's group.

No bro. Mine is a moto g3 xt1550. Searched the forum later yday and found that it is calibrating proximity sensor issue. Will try doing that and check. Thank you for the response

Sorry, you must have typo'd earlier, you clearly said XT1055 which is a valid Moto device. Anyway, sounds like you're on the right track.

I too did proximity sensor calibration but it worked only for few times. But the only solution that's working is whenever screen goes blank I rub with my finger on proximity sensor area for 3-4 times as if like cleaning it. Immediately the screen lights up. This is the solution am doing since past few times and its working consistently.

Yes u can disable the proximity sensor.....
Procedure:
1. The device need to be rooted
2. Install the xposed module
3. After installing search for sensor Disabler apk in xposed module
4. Install sensor Disabler and open the app and select the proximity sensor.
5. Select the value of proximity sensor to Maximum level and save it
6. Do the reboot
This whole procedure will disable ur proximity sensor ie ur screen will no go blank on any call.
Note : Xposed installer for nougat ROM is in development phase ...
Do it ur own risk I'm not responsible for any harm.
All the best :good::laugh:

To my knowledge it is not there... U can Google it bro
As I'm also facing this problem...
Some info about xposed....
Xposed is not compatible with Nougat, the truth is it may never be a viable option again due to security changes in Android. The developers have said that Xposed is on it's last legs, the changes in Android and the security are becoming impossible to work around. Remember last year at this time, the developers of Xposed had mostly given up and thrown in the towel and said Xposed was dead with Marshmallow, but they got lucky and found a work around just before completely giving up. They have not as yet found such a exploit to make it work, and if they do it will only be temporary as the next version of Android will probably close it again. They may get it to work with Nougat, or maybe not, either way best bet is to learn to live without it, because it will be gone before too long.
