Hello there,
Recently I had my digitizer replaced and since then, I am having very weird thing with the screen turning off as soon as I am making a phone call. I thought it was a light sensor but in winmo it seems to be working fine, makes the screen brighter or darker depending on light. I hope I was able to explain what the problem is.
What could it be?

Doesn't that basically mean your proximity sensor is working correctly?
The proximity sensor turns off the screen during a call when it senses something close to the sensor.

Have you checked your battery contacts (pins) when the battery is removed? If they are bent, they could lead to weird screen/phone shut-downs.
Did you replace the digitizer by yourself? Or did you have someone else (like a professional) replace it for you? Something might have happened to the electrical wiring, or there might be some small piece of dirt/object that got stuck in front of the proximity sensor.
Best wishes -- I hope you get this resolved.
Hi,
Digitizer had been fitted by technician, I said the same to him that its some sort of physical issue causing the screen to go off whilst making a call. Bathe suggested its a software problem. However, if somebody came across with this sort of issue please let me know how to fix it.

I've been having this issue myself for a while now, after first installing the latest norwegian rom straight from htc, and now using the energy rom. I haven't had any hardware in the phone replaced tho.
Sorry if I'm creating a new thread for this topic but i have searched and i still cannot find an answer to my problem. When I'm in a dark room, sometimes even not too dark, if a place a call my phone screen will go off, like to sleep mode, and will never wake up again until either i go to a brighter place or I hook it up to the power (usb cable), has anyone experienced this? and please if someone knows what's going and how to solve this issue, thanks so much for your help!!
I have the same problem too ... but sometime it just light up again directly after I finish the call. I think it has something to do with the ROM itself coz a friend of mine has installed the Incredible S ROM and it works perfectly.
I'll try on my HD2 and let u know .....
oh.. by the way Im using Nuxes One ROM

It is also possible to be a faulty light sensor or even some dirt in front of it, right underneath touchscreen glass!
First of all, you should flash a stock ROM and see what happen: if it's not OK. then you have a hardware problem!
dirt between screen and sensor caused the same to me, I've cleaned it and now is ok
I have SE LWW i love this phone but what i have notice that it has some problem with the sensor that change the brightness according to the light conditions.
What happens is that sometimes the screen start to flicker that is continuous jump
between low and high brightness which is very irritating.
So please share if any one of u face the same problem or know anything about it.
I m using LwW from yesterday but havnt seen this kind of issue may be needing more time to cross check, will update definitely.

yeah mine too.
i think it's coming from the device light sensor, n we can't fix it until sony put an update.

Weird had the lww too and never had that problem. Do the ones that have it updated your phones?? I am currently on lasan's rom but never encounter it.
thanks for replying guys but i think it is the ambient light sensor problem that means it is a hardware problem so it might not get solved by update.
Be positive most of the times it is a kernel related problem or take to a service center and see if they give you a new one
Live With Walkman
Live with walkman has a ambient sensor in it which changes light accordingly
but i never noticed any flicker in my phone my suggestions would be take the
phone SE service center
the flicker shows when u look at screen from side. but from infront of the screen, it's hard to see.

I confirm this.
When brightness is not full(I used on half on Stock and Hybrom ROMs), then in some conditions the screen indeed does flicker a bit.
That is caused by ambient light sensor, which detects many different light levels at some point, that is the reason for changing screen brightness so much at that time.
Currently, I am not aware of solutions for this, as I do use custom ROM, where I haven't noticed it yet.

Is not a bug, most other phones have it also, that means light sensor works.
It shouldn't damage your phone.

Return it if you can.
There seems to be a lot of issues with the screen. Color variance, brightness variance, dead spots, etc... I would jsut return it if i can.
might be a long shot but does disabling hardware overlays in settings/dev options do anything?
Oh, i forgot to mention too... i had this issue before. do you have power saving settings enabled? one of the settings is use low power for screen/change bg color in internet.
take it off and see if that helps.
Another thought, do you have Auto brightness on? If so the changes in brightness on this phone are not very smooth, it's kind of stuttery and looks like flickering a little bit.

Dude make only 1 thread for your problems. No need for 2.
It's image retention. I have it too but it's not a big deal. It's not permanent.
As for GPS, try rebooting your phone, or if you use a case, try without it, maybe the case is blocking the compass.

You can fix it unless you go get this fixed. if you're still in warranty, try to get it replaced.
Does backlight bleed really annoy you??? it's only visible in the dark at high brightness...

:laugh::laugh::laugh: you can try it. image retention can be solved with a blue light filter, light bleeding can only be fixed by replacing the screen. Both are common issues though with IPS LCD screens. (Notebook has it, tablet has it and phone as well)
The only thing I would really be bothered with is GPS. This made me send my G5 to LG and hopefully getting it fixed now.

Yes , BLF does solve omage retention. With that in mind, if you are rooted, use CF.Lumen, it works much better.

I had it pretty bad especially with Google maps. The only thing I can really recommend is using cf lumen and there use a color temperature of 6200k in root mode.
Edit: seen galr's post too late

You can even make the temperature back to 6600k and just change the shade to 0.102, this would solve the image retention permanently, i never had any image retention ever since.
I don't have image retention neither using blue light filter.

I've noticed that since the update to Nougat, sometimes CF.Lumen doesn't work and I need to run the app manually. Have you experienced it?
With blue screen filter from sisco mobile I still get image retention at software buttons.
I have it at 15% black color.
At the top image retention disappeared but a matter bottom no..

Yes i know, it wasnt meant as a permanent solution, which is why i mentioned i have to keep doing it every so often. but it does get rid of it for a few days for me.
