I have Xperia J . After I dropped my phone my proximity sensor doesn't work. When I call someone screen doesn't off. So I touch the screen with my ear . It causes some problem. I made some research on the forums but I didn't find any solution. I need a app when I call someone turn off the screen automatically. And after I close the call turn on the screen. Could anyone help me? Thank you for your attentions. I'm sorry for my English If I made a mistake.

Hi.
Bought a S2 a few days ago and flashed 3 roms. (ressurection remix - pacman - jellybam)
In everyone something happens quite annoying.
When I press DIAL to make a call, the screen goes immediatlly off.
Then I'm forced to press the home button or power button to get the screen on again...but as soon as I try to get into the call screen (to use the dial for example), the screen goes off again! The call is still active and I can speak in normal conditions, but I'm unable to get into the call screen!
What may be causing this problem? Is it possible to be a proximity sensor problem?
It's starting to p*ss me off a lot!!!!
Some of those symptoms are the result of the proximity sensor in the device. Read about it in the manual that came with your phone.

I think you missunderstood me... This is not my first S2...or first Android device.
I've had S2, Arc S, S3, etc...
I know how the proximity sensor works...
What is happening is that the sensor turns off the screen regardless of having something near by or not...
Therefore I'm never able to use the dialpad during a call or even see the hang up button...or the duration of each call.

Strange. Maybe the sensor is faulty or it's a software glitch. Did you try to reinstall kernel/ROM?

I would suggest typing *#0*# in the dialer, clicking "sensor" in the menu that comes up and test the proximity sensor. If thats fine, I'd suggest a softeare fault.

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!

Well obviously the third party call screen is the problem
How did you calibrate your proximity sensor ? I have some trouble with it
Go into setting by using the Mi code number. There you will see options to test your phone one of it is the proximity sensor wave you're hand at the screen and you will see the word calibration and press it .
Hey guys i bought this phone few days ago i am facing proximity sensor issues right now
when i try to call someone it will randomly go to dark screen
proximity sensor in testing apps does not work correctly
i tried removing the screen protecting glass and case it still persist
i thought this issues might have been fixed with the new update it doesn't guys should i return this device and get new one
Mi 11x pro uses a ultrasound chip for the proximity sensor and this works combined with other sensors like the gyro. So when you put the earpiece to your ear it detects an orientation change and switches the display off. I'm currently on indian miui v12.5.2 and don't face the issue you mention. Slow movements are known to confuse the phone. Other than that the screen shouldn't switch off after initiating the call unless you change its orientation. Testing apps work with orientation change.

Almost all of the sensor apps fail this, but in call I have no problem whatsoever.
Are you having trouble during calls?

Wow, new info, didn't know that, thanks
I have the same problem on my Mi11i... well... my problem is that the screen wont turn on when I move my phone away from my ear... the screen stays off, i cant get it to turn on even if i press the power button. Annoying as hell... You call someone, he doesent answer, and you cannot cancel the call because the screen is black and no way to turn it on! Or to check a phone number or email.... I will send it back as a warranty isue....
The problem is with MIUI 12.5.4.0, we need to wait for the fix with newer version of MIUI or try to install xiaomi.eu ROM
Hi Guys, i'm using Xiaomi 11x pro version 12.5.2. I'm facing proximity sensor issue also proximity sensor option not available in my phone in incoming call setting. please help on this.
