My proximity sensor is busted. I've tried all the different things like odining and getting compressed air and blowing it in the ear piece (which actually worked for like a day). So when I place a call the screen goes black and it won't let me turn the phone on at all. I know if the proximity sensor driver is just disabled I'd be able to turn the screen on and off by the power button while in a call. at any rate I was wondering if anyone knows what the driver is called for this phone. I would like to just disable the driver so I can get my phone functionality back. If anyone has any other ideas too that'd be more than welcomed. Thanks!

Go into Phone > call settings, then UNcheck "turn off screen during calls." That should allow you to use your power button while on a call.

Hey thanks so much for the response!! I should have specified i'm not a huge fan of touchwiz roms and that setting isn't in aosp for some reason :/ right now i'm on a touchwiz rom just because it's given me that option but i would love to be on the 4.4 aosp roms which i've tried and loved.
I haven't ran AOSP for awhile so I'm not familiar with the call settings, but there has to be a similar setting to disable it in there somewhere. This actually just started happening to me, I think my proximity sensor crapped out as well Look around, or ask in the ROM thread that you're using.

Fix!!! well sort of
ok so i found a workaround not really a fix but i guess it's gonna have to be good enough for me. I found an app called intelliscreen which gives you the option to set screen on/off rules for different apps. I set screen always on for the dialer and phone apps in 4.4 kk rom and now basically the screen still turns off during a phone call but i am able to turn it back on during the phone call with the power button or home button. pretty awesome because i really didn't feel like being on a tw rom forever lol.
Glad to here it

Doesn't that break auto rotation?
Sent from my SCH-I545 using Tapatalk
The method of disabling the sensor in the .so folder seem to break auto rotate. For me however its kinda worth it. Anything I usually want rotated is always rotated on its own anyhow and not being able to use my phone as a phone is kinda the worst lol.
Some users in the CM 11 thread have had success using a Q-Tip with a little alcohol on it to clean a black haze on the sensor. This, however, requires you to take the phone apart, which is actually a lot easier than it would seem.

Just tries the alcohol method. For all wondering fory phone it definitely did work and it definitely was super easy.

Go to your message app then settings. You'll find it in emergency alerts I believe. Turn them on or off there.

Everyone is right, this is a new type of alert that the FCC is starting to use across the nation. It is supposed to alert you of anything that may harm a population.
To turn it off, go to your stock messaging app. Go into settings, and scroll all the way to the bottom. Click "Emergency Alerts" and uncheck any that you don't want. The only alert you cannot opt of is the Presidential Alert. Also, you do NOT get charged for anything.
Also, does anyone know if you will still get this alert if you do not use the stock messaging app? I'm using goSMS.
I have gotten the alert twice in the last week, once while driving in a severe thunderstorm in Connecticut and the second time today during a severe thunderstorm in New Jersey.
Both times the alert was for a Flash Flood Warning. Are these the only ones currently going out? I actually wouldn't mind alerts for Severe Thunderstorms, but I have not seen any.
Also, you will still get the messages in GoSMS. They show up as coming from "#CMAS#Severe".
Thank you!
The FCC has said about the alerts is that you will get an alert for:
1. Alerts issued by the President
2. Alerts involving imminent threats to safety or life
3. Amber Alerts
I think severe thunderstorm warnings would at least be covered - I'm not sure about watches though. From what the FCC said, it makes it seem that they warnings would at least be covered, since severe thunderstorms can definitely pose "imminent threats to safety or life."
Just got my tags. Pretty said, I set one up to turn wifi on and launch xda. Only if I can have it download and flash roms.

You could probably take apart your key fob and put one in there.

Love NFC. Using it with NFC Task Laucher app. Have one tag in my car to turn on GPS and increase volume via Tasker app. Another on my Stand next to my bed to put my phone into "sleep mode"...turns down the volume and disables data/syncing to save battery while I'm sleeping. I bought my tags from tagstand.com. They cost me about $1 a tag.
Just got some of the round disk kind. I thought the sticky ones were pretty flimsy. These are like cardboard disks. Figured they would stand up to time and reuse. Don't know what much to do with them yet. I did one to toggle wifi, bluetooth, and gps in the car.
I really like the key chain type in your picture.

So apparently we got screwed out of the Screen Recording feature ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0j-oTLGPUEY ), there's an app on the market called "ScreenRecorder", I keep getting "Fatal Error!" has anyone been able to get it to work?
What is up with Verizon taking so many useful applications that came with the phone off it? Bet there was a problem with their bloatware and the apps. Even then keep the apps and fictions and lose the bloat!

What ROM is this? Mine doesn't have screenrecorder.apk
Pretty sure i heard this feature was not released because of legal problems being that you could record netflix movies and stuff like that
If you read the youtube comments, NOBODY has it working on any stock rom. Not even international versions.
Stupid Verizon!!!

Has nothing to do with the fact its 4.2.2. Nor does it have anything to do with the picture being taken with our device. Its instagram internal bug in the software that's messing with our camera.

I took a picture with the s4 tried it on instagram. It's green.
Beamed the exact image to my girlfriends galaxy note 2. Had her do the same process. Its not green.
Its not the image. Its not the ROM. Its instagram hating on the s4 at the moment and they probably dont know what's causing it. But its been a known issue. On all carriers and versions. Not just Verizon's.

Yes the lock screen pattern lag. It lags after doing your pattern. It gets worse as the rom is up and running for a few hours. I have to reboot to fix it.

Does it still fc when you tap themes on the home screen settings and of course the fingerprint scanner options (if it's there)
