Hey guys,
I installed Pocketshield, then unistalled it a while later.
Now when I am on a call, I don't get that half screen slide that comes up to protect the buttons. The proximity sensor works, and the screen turns off/black.
I am missing the half screen slider that covers speaker, note etc etc
Can anyone help?
There is a ...lock... under the start menu that I had to delete for Pocketshield to work, maybe that was it.
Thanks for any help.

Hi,
I installed the Miri & DINIK rom which comes pre-installed with BSB Tweaks. I have a feeling that is related to my problem which is that my screen goes into landscape mode when rotating the phone slightly when I am in the dialer and when making or receiving a call. This also disables the backlight sensor meaning as soon as the screen rotates on a call the backlight comes back on making it easy to accidentally tap on-screen buttons.
I have tried un-installing BSB Tweaks with no luck fixing the problem. I have also tried using RegEdit and going to GSensor/Whitelist to see what's there but I can't see anything that could cause this.
I just want to stop the screen from rotating during calls and on the phone dialer. Anyone know the solution?
Thanks in advance for any help offered!
Seems like this is not an easy one to answer..
How about does anyone know a regedit I can do to prevent rotation in the dialer or phone canvas?
Hello every1.
So I got myself a galaxy s3 second hand, and I managed to drop it today from the first floor.
It's screen didn't got damaged, but my proximity sensor isn't working anymore.
When I am in call, my screen does not go off when the phone is at my ear because the sensor isn't working.
Is there any app, that will turn off my screen when certain events happen?(like getting a phone call)
I am too lazy to reach out to the upper sides to turn the screen off.
Is there any way I can do this?
tasker
EDIT:
Thank you very much.
I had problems but I figured it out. Too bad I cannot set the display minimum timeout less than 7 seconds, but it's okay.
So I set my screen timeout to 7 seconds when the call is answered and when the phone is idle, set it back to default.
Genius app!
Thank you so much!
hi all
i have spent almost 2 days for an answer , no luck
my problem is
my phone s3 lte . screen turns of as soon as i obstruct the front camera and the 2 sensors area . it was ok before , since few days it started doing this . now i cant take screen shot pictures by moving my palm across the screen for example , not sure what this is due to
any help please .?
You've posted in the wrong section, questions go in q&a section -those for the i9305 stand more chance of a reply that won't brick your phone in the special q&a for LTE phones.
Report your own post and ask for it to be moved.
Having said all that, you've probably got a corrupt framework or a hardware fault. Flash a fresh official stock rom after a factory reset to test. If it's still the same then send for repair.
Is this when in a call sorry to ask noob question just curious if your covering the proximity sensor

Screen Blanks out on Galaxy tab
I ran this test and your screen is only supposed to change color from white to green during the test. My screen blanks out completely during the test.
Not sure if the sensor is bad or if it is a software or and OS issue yet.

Need advice.
I just received a SM-T705Y, KitKat. When I am in only some applications not all, the screen shuts completely off when my finger passes over the two sensors/camera near the word "SAMSUNG" at the top of the device. I have tested the cause and done it repeatedly by putting a small piece of black electrical tape on the sensor.
With the tape on the sensor, the screen never shuts off. The screen then will come back on several seconds after I remove my finger/tape from the sensor. Also, I do not have to actually touch the sensor to get the screen to turn off. But it activates the lock screen when it does turn off. ANNOYING !!!
My SM-T705Y is not rooted. It is in developer mode.
I think its the sensor that turns the screen off when you take a phone call is still stuck on ???
I have the phone proximity sensor turned off in: Settings> When I'm the phone screen The screen stays on.
Auto adjust screen tone : ON
Auto brightness is off
I have the "Smart Stay" turned off in: Settings>Device>Display.
Screen timeout set to 10 minutes. Screen mode set to "AMOLED Cinema"
I have restarted, not rebooted the SM-T705Y

The proximity sensor is located there. That's why you have that issue. It's normal behaviour.
If you are trying to turn the screen off during calls there is an option to do so in either calls settings or display settings.
If you move the phone away from your head it will turn the screen on. It's a proximity sensor, thats its job!.

Fix
I have same problem with my samsung and I fix it!
Just close all recently used app (press button next to menu button and close all) and you will have normal screen..... Looks like some app, especially call app make problem and activating proximity sensor. So one more time close all recently used app, press button next to menu button and close all app....
Good Luck!

Hi,
I've just had my screen replaced on the LG G5. However, post screen replacement I am facing the following problems:
- As soon as I dial a number the screen goes black and locks itself. I need to press the button at the back to unlock the screen.
- If i make a call using whatsapp, as soon as I hit dial the screen locks itself
I checked and it looks like my proximity sensor is not working. In the apps that I use to test it, it either just reads '0" for the proximity sensor or "NEAR".
Anyone else faced similar issues or have a solution?
I just had my screen/frame replaced and am having the same problem. Tap to wake rarely works and while making a call the display stays on while phone is to my ear. Did you find a fix?
I fixed my problem doing some Googling. I can't post the link to the thread but Google "LG G5 Proximity Sensor Reddit mobile repair".
"I had a similar problem. I replaced my display/frame myself and the tap to wake function rarely worked and the phone display would stay lit when held to my ear. Following the advice here, I found that there was a rubber grommet around the prox sensor window on the old screen that I hadn't transferred over. It's very hard to see and almost looks like it is molded into the frame. I dug it out with some tweezers and transferred it over and it is back to normal."
