Dear all,
I am suffering from the following bug.

Have tried both CM 11 and CM 11S. I think if I can change the sensor settings, may be situation would improve. Any ideas how to do the same ?

I have face the same scenario almost every time. I have tried different things but no luck. Although, I have noticed that after finishing a call, if I pull the phone away from my ear vertically then the notification shade won't come down (success rate is about 60-70%). I added my vote for the bug resolution on jira.
Its kind of irritating and I guess playing with proximity sensor will help things. Have been searching on how to do the same without luck.

Hello,
First of all I have no idea if this is on the right section, so please move it if it isn't
I usually watch a lot of videos on YouTube in bed, leading me to desire a very low brightness. On my SGS4 running CM11 I simply used lux lite and twilight and disabled the capacitive button backlight. I since got an LG G3 and I'm facing issues. I would like to dim the nav bar to a brightness to that proportionate or less than the actual screen, as the nav bar is burning my retinas out!
I've tried nearly every app possible and still nothing works. This is quite a key thing for me and is making me seriously consider the much more expensive note 4.
I'm quite desperate now, and will try root or non-root solutions. My G3 isn't rooted but I will try root solutions on my S4.
Thanks in advance,
Chris
Hi there,
I'd suggest asking here for advice and help: G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting
Hi Team
I have several issues that can all be solved with one solution(i think)
I have an overly sensitive touchscreen my phone is an InnJoo Fire Pro(MTK)
So on lollipop with access to the toggles it keeps switching stuff off, and on Hi Locker it keeps entering wrong patterns and codes I have had my phone locked for 30 mins its mostly 15.
I have installed gravity screen to shut screen but it seems I have to caliburate the Proximity Sensor since it dosent work like 60% of the time.
Please help prefarably on the access to toggles on lollipop(default lockscreen does not lock me out). But also if there is another app that works better to lock screen when in pocket or caliburate my Proxi Sensor
My Phone is rooted
Forgot to add the proxy sensor and touch screen is an issue when on a call my face changes all the toggles
Regards
Locked out Peter

Hello,
It means I couldn't find a similar device thread here on XDA which could address the same issue as yours.
You may try posting your query in the link I posted above.

Guys!
Do you experience proximity sensor issues while answering calls on OP7P?
For me while I'm on calls. The display comes on and gets disturbed and get pressed by my ears all the time.
Also any idea of where the proximity sensor is located on OP7P?
Thanks ?
Yes, I'm having the same issues. While I'm on calls I often activate the notifications pulldown. It would be nice to know how to fix this.
If you pull down the notification shade, the sensor is located just above the fifth icon on the first row. IE behind the screen.
If you pull the shade all the way down it is above and between the third and fourth icons. Easiest way to describe it. Put your thumb over that area with auto brightness on to watch the slider move.
Annoying while on a call that the screen comes on.
I'm experiencing the exact same issue with the caller app.
I also tried to make a flip cover to turn screen on or off with a proximity sensor detection app and it didn't work either.
I search a little in engineer mode (*#808#) and found that there is multiple proximity sensor, the IR sensor work quite well but it doesn't seem to be the default one.
The default one seems to be the ultrasonic sensor which works really bad.
There is also a "TP" proximity sensor which seems to be a near field detection which seems to work if I move my hand near the screen.
The sad thing is that in dedicated app to use or test proximity sensor (and in antutu or else) only one proximity sensor is listed (The ultrasonic one I guess) so you cannot switch to use the one which is working well.
Isn't this in the wrong place? Shouldn't it be in the Questions and Answers section?
Mods?
Probably just here looking for a mod to improve the situation
Actually I was going to open a new thread in Q&A when I found this one with the same subject and problem.
Do you think I need to open a new thread?
Is any of you experiencing the same issue as I described in my answer?
did anyone calibrate the proximity sensor using *#808# first? That seems to fix double tap to wake for some people
I tried to with no luck but as I explain in my first message the IR sensor is only used when screen is off (that's why it could help with double tap to wake)
But when screen is on another or couple another sensors are used and you can't calibrate them.
I think ultrasonic sensor is used when screen is on.
Do someone tested proximity sensor with any app on the play store? (Like proximity sensor test)
Put it on a table and check if it's working, mine is absolutely not. If I hold it like I was about to phone it works a little but it's not impressive.
Since I got 9.5.7 (EU version) earlier this evening screen turn off when I make a call.
I'm having this issue since 9.5.8... It's very annoying and I'm really disappointed, I often turn on airplane mode during a call... I tried to calibrate but it doesn't work.
I'm very very frustrated

When I click on proximity test it says it needs calibration how do I do that cause otherwise I can not test my proximity sensor cause when I click on it nothing happens
I am on 9.5.8

I've been having issues with phone calls but more so with pocket issues.. When I had the 6t pocket mode kept the phone neutral but this phone doesn't seem to have an accurate prox sensor.. Is there a way to activate a pocket mode?

Happening to me too, approached oneplus via live chat about this issue and at one point they said to wipe and reset my phone even if I told them the sensor is working but seems badly calibrated. Will try the wipe & reset and if it's not working I am returning my phone.
Proximity sensor is working fine - there is a bug elsewhere on the firmware that does not lock the screen when it is blacked out

But I have had this issue since release.. Do you a link to this information? If that's the case maybe someone can look into the firmware and see if it's minor tweak that can fix it?

This has been an issue since the release. Do you have a link to where you read this information? If it is the firmware maybe someone can look into the settings and see if needs a tweak..

I have reported this to Funk wizard on the OOS support thread and he said he cannot reproduce it anymore on the latest test build, so... We have to wait for next firmware release and see if that is indeed the case
Hi there,
My device is actually a plain Redmi Note 11 and I have this very annoying issue:
My proximity sensor does not work, so when I cover the top it dim a little but that's all.
I must add that I installed Magisk to root my device so it might be related
The system Proximity Sensor test pass nevertheless
I saw in quite a few posts on Internet that there are issues with this part as Xiaomi actually implement digital mock-up from Elliptic Labs.
Is there a thread / walkthrough to help solve that issue? The threat is that it might shorten my phone life quickly
Thx for reading and any help greatly appreciated
Kindest regards
