Hi,
I have seen a few threads on this problem. Proximity sensor showing 0,0 when tested. I am running CM10.1 was wondering if there is a way to disable the sensor, through coding or other means, any help and step by step would be apreciated.
Would a ghost sheild over the sensor cause issues with depth on the sensor?
Thanks for any help!

Thanks for the help!! Hardware disabler is exactly what I was looking for.
I assume it's from the screen protector over the sensor

I need a proximity sensor calibration application or something of the like of the sensor not locking up when it shouldn't. Thank you if you can help.

Sure there is such an app. Just enter "proximity screen off" in play store.
PS. Proximity sensor might be not detected on CM based ROM's

guys please help me, i have a serious problem.
i had a LIB(criskelo14) based rom with domination v1.3.4 and everything was super smooth. yesterday installed a LJ4 based rom(criskelo 18) and then domination v1.4 . after installing this amazing theme my proximity sensor is always on and i have too much battery drain.
i wiped my device and with a fresh install every thing returned to normal.but after restoring my apps problem is back. i have deleted many apps that may caused this prob but nothing is fixed.
i attached a list of my apps.about 340 apps.
please guide me what should i do?i don't want to loose my apps.
please take a look at list of my installed apps
I think its viber.
Uninstall it and look at your sensor.
If so the last update for viber fix the problem with the proximity sensor.
You need v2.2.3.109 instead v2.2.3.108.

If you have Device Info Live Wallpaper installed you will know that S3 has 15 sensors.

You've been answered. You can count "sound sensor" (mic), "touch sensor", "GPS sensor", wifi sensor and whatever else, because it senses these in some way
Hi y'all, I just noticed my accelerometer stopped working. And my auto rotate does not really work it rotates only to the right side of the screen 180º
and I can't play accelerometer games like temple run and ae 3d motor because it constantly moves to the right side of the screen by itself
I have tried flashing various roms still no positivity! !
Helps and suggestions will be highly appreciated.. Thanks

Sorry brother but I dont have any idea then. Since you have flashed other roms and still having the problem, so maybe its related to a hardware issue?
Why dont you make a visit to samsung customet care?

I am guessing you are using the stock CM kernel? Just flash a custom kernel like Siyah, Dorimanx, PhilZ(If you are on stock) and it will be gone.
