i have the same issues,I think this has to do with the proximity sensor, you end up tapping the top of your phone with your ear before it realizes to shut the sceen off, and im not sure if this is due to the bt/proximity issue or just going in and setting the proximity to be more sensitive, will do some playing around and post back

the odd thing is sometimes i'm on speaker phone and after my friend hangs up, that screen shows up..so not sure..
Hey i don't know if this deserves its own thread or not, but i think it'd be pretty cool if the proximity sensor on the Touch Pro 2 could be used like those on blackberries, that when you put the phone in your pocket or a case with the screen on the screen would automatically turn off then turn back on when you took it out. Don't know if this would be possible but it is a really cool concept. Thanks
blackberries turn on cause theres a little magnet in the cases that turn on and off the screen. i dont think any blackberries have a proximity sensor. the storm is the only one with a touch screen to accidentally hit but you have to click it to do anything, and if your pushing a bb hard enough into your face to make the screen click, you deserve the have it push random buttons.
oh ok, that kinda sucks, still be kinda cool if it could be done though
i was wondering if theres some way to change the sensitivity or distance of the proximity sensor, i notice when my wife was using the phone the screen would turn on and off randomly i guess because of the way she was holding it to her ear, then i started noticing through the corner of my eye that my phone was doing this as well, it must think i've pulled it away from my ear when it senses different cavities in my ear, i'd like to turn it up to an extra 1/2" or so when i do hold the phone to my ear i know for certain it stays off, and when i really do pull it away from my head the screen wakes up. has anyone found the settings for this yet? i'm running juicy rom and my wife has mightyrom

you could have it that way but you would need to disable the power off after x minutes. then all you would need to do is keep the proximity sensor enabled
Changescreen has an option under the advanced settings to suspend the phone when it's placed face down or in your pocket (as long as its put in your pocket upside down). It doesn't turn back on when you pick it up or take it out of your pocket though, you have to hit the suspend button for that. I'd reccomend checking it out.
Oh ya it also does screen rotation via the G-sensor.

I'm not sure if Changescreen actually uses the proximity sensor. It will shut off the screen even if you turn it upside down in the air. And I have found on numerous occasions that it still leaves the screen on in your pocket, which is too bad because it's handy to have.
Try PocketShield. It will automatically shut the screen off when put in your pocket or case. There is a free and paid version.

I'm with t0mmyr on this issue.
I too find that when having been on a call, my screen can end up with started apps, on the programs page, etc.
I too think that a 'tweak' on the proximity sensor will go a long way to fixing this issue. The trick is to find exactly what to tweak and this is where we need a little guru-like guidence.......!!!

theres a few interesting keys in hklm\software\htc\proximity. i wont mess with them. i wouldnt like the screen to turn on every time i pick my phone off a table or something.

Thx for the heads-up
I looked into them but with no result.
There must surely be a way to 'fiddle' with the range..?
Cheers

i dont think there is a boost on range. i think the emitter intensity is fixed and would require hardware tinkering to make reflections on object brighter for the receiving sensor.

Actually I played with it a little and realized that it does in fact use the proximty sensor and g sensor. It just seems to bug up some times (or it just might be my device)
Not just yours mine does this as well. I make sure I don't move the phone away from my ear at all but if it is a long call it always seems that either the notification bar or the start button got pressed during the call. It is driving me nuts. I had a program written by someone on XDA for my Fuze that worked awesome called touch in-call screen tweak I want that functionality with the tilt 2

TouchLockPro has InCallTweak built in. See youtube video in the link. And recently also has added ZoomBar unlock. And it is *FREE*
Does anyone know how to disable the sensor that turns off/on the lcd when you put the phone to your face?
This is a HUGE problem when I AM ON A CALL using bluetooth headset and the phone is in my pocket or belt case and the stupid sensor would randomly turn the screen on and then random keys would be pressed during call or apps launched.
I have s2u2 slide lock but it doesnt lock phone while in call, please help. THank s.
Not a fix, but, TouchLock Pro locks it when that sensor blanks the screen.

Hi,
I don't know what's going on with the screen of my one-v...
well I press lock button, so screen goes dark, but after a while it lights up for few seconds showing me lock screen... then it goes dark, and after few second it does it again.
after 2 times it stops, but it is annoying when you put phone on the desk, that it glows so you start to think about coming call or text.
what's going on?
lolsss..
haunted maybe
Sent from my HTC One V
haha well hopefully not
I thought at beginning that it could be caused because of apz running in background but I have double checked - there are not any

have you tried factory resetting?
Are you using an app like Keep Screen?
My friend had a similar problem when she used the Keep Screen app.
Have you received an update?
Try using another locker like GO Locker or Magic Locker. Inform if it happens again.
strange thing, but it magically stopped happening
That may due to your brightness settings which is set to "Automatic" by default.
well it was too early for me to say that problem is gone... it happens again today ;/
I have fixed level of brightness, no apps except battery life working in background... all newest updates installed.
any ideas?
Hi there, I love the LG G3, but its also annoying that the phone just lock itself right after the screen is off, unlike other device which often first lower the light, then dim the light and sleep/lock the device, allowing you to have some time touching the screen to keep it on. With G3, no matter which app you are in, or you are in the middle of the call, when it's darken the screen means the phone is lock and you have to turn on screen, enter lock code again...
Does anyone find it annoying too and know how to fix it? Thank you!

Go to settings-lock screen-lock timer and set for 2 minutes or more. The default time is too short imo. I have mine set for 2 minutes.
Thanks but its not exactly what im looking for. I set for 30s time out and I think its enough for most of the time. On other phone, it allow you some dim time so that you can keep the screen on without having to unlock the device again but G3 just lock it, even in the middle of the call when the screen is off. Thats quite annoying.

Ok you want face detection. Go to settings-display-smart screen and check the box to enable. Screen will stay on when it detects your face.
face detection doesnt seem to work on LG phone as it does on Samsung. I find it useless feature. @@
