Install Chad's proximity sensor fix from the market... bump the high threshold up til it says Far, bump it up about two more numbers, check of Set on Boot.
That app doesn't appear to be in the Google play store anymore

No problem.
I've found some roms have the settings baked in or set high to begin with, others don't. It's a handy app to keep around.
Old post, but what the hell. Had to get a referb as my old Rez wouldn't charge anymore. Had this issue and the app worked like a charm.

If you are on stock and not using screen off underclock profiles in setcpu, time for an exchange.
If you want to underclock with setcpu, you need a custom kernel with a fix.
If you are undervolting, you need to learn to read the documentation for the kernel you are using.

Weird. I've been using Widgetlocker for months with no issues .
Ditto. Been using WidgetLocker on UnNamed 2.2.1 for at least 2 months with no issues.
This just happened to me last night, twice. Woke up around 3am, phone was off. Thought nothing of it as my battery was at 20% around 8pm. Plugged it in, turned it on and went back to sleep. Wake up at 8:10 (supposed to be at work at 8!) and phone was off. Hit the power and it showed the phone off battery full screen. I don't have any other lock besides the stock. Been running ICS'd Out since 12/20 with no issues like this. Haven't modified the phone at all for the past 2 weeks (last was update to 1/2 DD) exept for installing current widget. Has anyone had any issues with current widget causing this? Or is there possibly a way to tell why(how) the phone was shut off?
When I got a message or notification while my screen was off it would light up the screen automatically to show you the notification on the lock screen. Is there an android alternative?

go sms works perfectly as you described, and its my choice, but see what works best for you.

Honestly I looked into a few of those recommendations but I chose Tasker with the plug in Secure Settings.
Now I can choose to wake up my screen on any notification for a defined amount of time before it turns off automatically.
Tasker is a very powerful system app. So if you haven't tried it, I highly recommend it. It's a paid app ($6.95) but very worth it. If your skeptical go to the developer's website for a trial.

Hey all. I just tried Skype on my phone for the 2nd time today and was told that my image was green. The first time it was on the vzw network so i assumed there was a bandwidth issue however today I was on wifi.
Looking it up on Google it seems to be an issue with HTC phones on ICS and the Skype app. Has anyone found a fix for this or must we wait until JB?

That's odd. My skype is working 100% fine... I am on ViperLTE 1.0.0. Try deleting the data for the app. May be it is something with the latest OTA if you are on that.
Its supposedly an issue with HTC phones which would explain why yours works fine.

Is it possible the camera settings would affect color? Try setting your White Balance to compensate for the color temp of the lighting where you're located during the call. I suspect this might be the source of the problem.

I flashed it, didn't like it so I tried to restore. Got an MD5 error so I had to flash the base again to get rid of the nocturnal mod.

I had the exact same happen to me, tried everything I could think of to fix it. Finally had to use lgnpst to restore, then reroot unlock and flash base.
I think I'll just wait to see if the next rom fixes it if that's the case. Does anyone know if there is an option to calibrate the sensors? I've looked but haven't found it

Under display in system settings, the last option but it will not help. You can be up and running in no time, lgnpst doesn't wipe data and there is an automated install script. Once you have everything downloaded it runs in few minutes.
I'll try that then, thanks

Uninstall kernel tuner and reinstall the kernel. Kernel tuner is known to mess stuff up.

Remove any cpu tuner because this kernel does not need it. Other ones do but not this one. Then reflash the kernel.

He's saying to uninstall it completely. Don't put it back on at all.
FWIW, I'm on Venom 1.2 and after trying a bunch of different set ups, what seems to work best for me is to simply uninstall all kernel managers and then install the kernel and run it "stock".
This has given me awesome battery life, no lag, and no boot issues.
