My note 5 even before nougat the screen when on a call inside the call app won't stay off,even when I hit the power button it goes off and turns back on 2 seconds later,but if I hit home button and get out of phone app while on call screen will shut off and go to sleep,and yes the screen will go off if I put something over sensor,the issue for me is because I use Bluetooth almost all the time,so when answering all the phone stays on the whole time unless I hit home button and get out of call app,anyone know why?Very annoying..

I am facing same issue after installing nougat.
From the home screen, tap Phone icon.
Tap Menu. (3 dots in corner)
Tap Call settings.
Tap Turn off screen during calls to enable or disable.
Enabled when a check mark is present.
My galaxy s7 doesn't have that option under call settings.

When i make a call, the screen truns black. I can't hang up etc.
Also when someone's calling me i can't press any button for like 30 a 40 sec, then sometimes i can hang up.
Tried everything, Flashed 6 different firmware versions using ODIN, Even brought back to the store, They flashed it to, no effect.
BUT!! When i plug in my headphones the screen does not go black and don't freeze, It functions normally then. THAT is Strange!!??
Any body an idea??
Also another problem:
When the screen is locked, and i press the home button, it takes about 10-15 seconds to show the unlock screen. When i press the home button the screen just stays black for 10 seconds until i can unlock it with a swipe.
BUMP. Edited post included Video
Solved it using app proximitySensorOff.
Its in the market.
Drains the battery, but no more freezes while calling.
So when my phone is locked, the home button turns the screen on. This is fine, I often use it to check the time and such. However, to turn the screen back off I have to hit the power button.
Wondering if there's a way to set the phone so that the home button turns OFF the screen too (when phone is locked)? Possible?
Now, I'm no developer, but I'd have to say not possible. Unless someone can script an app to only work when the phone is in lock mode, but that just seems doubtful.

Same situation as you, found the answer in another forum.
Ive been using this app to turn off the screen by the proximity sensor, so far working great.

you can try a custom rom to get it

It is possible when you giving up actual home button function.
Then you have to enable on-screen navigation bar, instead of hardware physical button.
This thread is over 2 years old guys. Also, if you run AOSP, double tap the status bar to turn the display off. Works on SlimKat, should be like that on CM too.

Hi, my S3 has a problem in that if the screen turns off and I immediately (well, fairly soon) press the home button or side power button to wake it up again.. there is a very long delay... so much that I only use the home button now, because I keep clicking the side button and often by the time the screen wakes up, it will have gone back to sleep because I had pressed the power button again.
So now I use home because home will not turn the screen off, only on.
Anyhow I'm sure it must be due to some app doing some processing when the screen goes off...
my question is, how do I track down the app? I have no idea which one it is
I have no problem to get the screen to turn on immediately, if some time has passed... let's say 30 seconds.. but often you need to turn the screen back on after it has timed out, so it's annoying to have to wait 10 seconds after immediately pressing the button.
btw. I use Cyanogenmod (android 4.3) but I don't think it's the cause because I don't remember this behaviour when I first installed it.
any ideas? thanks

I'm interested as well, I really wish samsung would improve the wake time on their phones. My HTC turned on without delay
My phone's screen will not shut off after I set a reminder in Google Assistant. Is this a bug?
For instance, I tap and hold the home button from my homescreen to call up Assistant and say "set a reminder at 2 pm to drink water," then say "yes" to confirm. If I don't go back to the home page via the home button or the back button, the screen won't shut off. It will time out after one minute, go black for a half second, but then come right back on. If I hit the power button to shut the screen off, then one second later the screen turns back on.
Is anyone else having this issue?

Same here, anytime I use OK Google to check the weather or something like that, after 30 seconds it will go black for a 1/2 second and then come right back on, just as you described and every 30 seconds thereafter It continues to do the same thing; I have to hit the home key for it to timeout/sleep.
Every notification I get wakes up screen and causes accidental touches in pocket. How to disable? I just want sound vibrate alert not awake phone

Try this, go to Settings - Accessibility - Advanced settings - Flash notification and disable SCREEN FLASH.
Has anyone figured out a solution to this? I'd really wish the screen would only turn on with the power button... Even when phone calls come in, I always have to CAREFULLY drag it out of my pocket so I don't accidentally hang up or answer.... This and a thousand other scenarios
