Hi!
My poco M3 proximity sensor is broken, I allways have a black screen during a call, like if it was near my ear. And I can't Access touchpad. I tried to recalibrate it, it didn't worked.
So, I'm looking for an Phone App , like truecaller, or Google phone, but with the option to bypass proximity sensor, forcing screen to be allways on, and touchpad Can be used during a call.
Is it possible?
Thanks

I´ve bought the runtastic pro app for my device, and I make sure to turn on the gps when I start the program, but as soon as the screen dims and shuts off, the gps wont be running either.
Is there any fix to this, other than forcing screen always on ?
If I use trackerbooster which somehow keeps gps going even on screen of, then runtastic works fine.
Any idea what line it is they need ti code into runtastic for it to do that on its own ?
Hello,
My wife keeps cutting off the phone when she is talking on the phone, I believe it must be her ear touching the touchscreen which is not ideal but is there any way of adjusting the sensor or anything?
dig into settings, theres an option somewhere to turn of screen when making calls
I'm looking for an app that will lock the screen when the phone is upside down. Here's my problem. I keep my phone in my pocket, generally top shirt pocket. I'll be on a call using a headset (BT or wired) and another call comes in. The screen wakes up (in pocket detection doesn't make a difference) and because it is a press to answer button on the screen for call waiting, the phone connects to the waiting call 99% of the time.
So, I'm looking for a way to keep the screen from activating. In pocket detection would be good if it worked. Maybe just have the phone upside down in my pocket (not good for wired headset through). If there isn't an app, something like Tasker (looked but it doesn't seem like a solution) or anything else that might help is appreciated. I can't believe I'm the only one with this problem but it I don't see any complaints. TIA.
i too need a similar app
i use a bluetooth headset to receive call on my maxx. i have tried almost every app that detects in pocket using proximity sensor. they all work well. but the moment a call arrives or made the screen lights up causing all sorts of button press and the phone hangs. please suggest a app with which the screen should not come on whatever may be the event (call, message etc) when it is inside the pocket.
Try using:
Cheeky Hangup Guard
myLock Utilities
Angle offHookGuard
On Phone Touch Protection
I've not personally used them but their description sounds like it might be what you're looking for.
i use automagic automation to create a rule to lock or silence the phone when it's turned face down.
and yeah, i know it's a 10 months later reply
Hi,
I just bought the Xiaomi A2 phone and I have a problem with it- during phone calls the proximity sensor doesn't work very well and the screen doesn't turn off when I press it to my ear. This causes me to randomly press things on my phone during the call. Apparently a lot of other people are experiencing the same issue:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-a1/help/unintended-taps-call-how-to-prevent-t3725551
In order to solve this I want to use the app Proximity Service:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=ss.proximityservice
This app seems to do the trick and does turn the screen off pretty well when the proximity sensor is covered. The problem is that I don't want it to happen all the time I'm using my phone, I want it to happen only during calls.
So I was wondering, is there an app that allows me to turn on an app every time I start a call and turn it off every time the call ends?
Thanks.
Hey. PLEASE, does anyone know of any way at all, to disable okay Google detection, only for when the screen is off?
I am using wear OS, have the Fossil Gen 5, the assistant access is brilliant, but Jebus Cripes, it is useless when literally every time I try to use it on my watch, both it and my phone respond. I still want it to work on my phone, but when it is in my hand, there is no detection on my watch while it is showing the AOD so it works fine that way round. But I can't believe there is no way to disable it on a phone while it's screen is off. I believe there used to be, but they got rid of it fairly recently.
Edit:
Also another viable option would be an app or something that simply mutes the mic when the screen is off. I see hundreds of mute mic apps in the play store. but, they're all apps you need to open and toggle the mic system wide until you turn it back on. I don't want to have to do that every single time I put my phone down and pick it up.
