Proximity sensor on Desire HD - Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Dear all,
My Desire HD may have an error about proximity sensor: after installing Light Lock, right now my proximity sensor doesn't work, when I'm making a call, the screen still turn on (it must turn off if proximity sensor running, and the fone will have a vibration when I make call)
I try to up new ROM (ship ROM and CM7) but it doesn't work like the first. I don't know why, anyone please help me to fix it because it's make me more difficult when putting phone in my jeans.
Somebody please help,
Many thanks for any suggestion. Thank you.

Please somebody help me!??

Have some patience, no-one is here 24/7. No need to panic just because you don't get an answer in a couple of hours.
Did you try to search? (just click "Search Now")

Try searching "Desire HD General" section

I've searched everywhere and I think don't have any people like me!? Maybe it occurred error when I install light lock?

Like i said, look in the General section.

Yeah, but it can not run on 2.3.3 OTA, 2.2 of 1.32.405.6 it can run but it's not stable, sometime you have to turn it on.

Until now, we just don't have any solution?

Proximity sensor issue...please help

the phone screen should turn off when in a phone and close to my ear due to the proximity sensor
but the screen doesnt turn off....i dont know why
its a stock desire hd with the recent gingerbread update so its not rooted.
any ideas for troubleshooting?
its really annoying
i have an app that tested the sensor and found no issues (ie, it measured me moving my finger on and off the sensor without issue)
no root, cant help much, no custom kernels
iv always had the same issue, even with Lee's rom installed, the proximity sensor never seems to pick up at the right time.. is there any way of calibrating it?
There was an app on xda somewhere for calibrating the dhd sensor. Try a search on here and try Google. Think it might be a known bug with some dhd.
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA Premium App
thanks, yeah i read that thread, but i'm using GB stock, and unfortunately its not yet supported by that app.

Desire Proximity Sensor Problem

Hello. My Desire have problem.
Proximity sensor don't work correctly.
When I call somebody, my screen off (black) at once.
I download program "Proximity Sensor Finder" and I found out that phone always think that distance between "sensor - anything" always 0.0 cm
What to do?
Maybe dust on sensor...but i don't understand how it could get there
hm maybe a software bug?
what radio an rom do you have? did you try another rom and radio?
radio last 5.17
i tried a lot of roms but problem still exist
Go back to stock. If problem still persits, call HTC.
i had same problem like you before
and it solved right now just by clean the dust around the ear peace with rocket air for camera lens
try it adn i hope working with u too

[Q] Proximity Sensor and compass, both not working any more

As title says: since i rooted my desire hd and flashed a custom rom, the proximity sensor ( G-sensor) and compass aren't working anymore. Tried to calibrate, reset, hard reset, flashed other roms, nothing helped. While calibrating, nothing moved, not the levelers and not the needle of the compass.
What relation do they have together? Is it one part? Could it be a hardware problem or just software?
I noticed some threads about a locked G-sensor. Tried to "shake" them loose. No result. Who can and is willing to help me? thnx.
Mine proximity s. isn't working either. I guess I will take it apart and have a look at it, could be dust or smth.

I replaced my Earspeaker yesterday since the sound had been really bad for som time.. while doing this I removed loads of dust located behind the Grid at the top the phone.. doing this ofc fixed the sound, but i also made my Proximity sensor work again.. and made the GPS get a better signal.. so really try cleaning it.. does wonders...

Try a fresh install of an RUU (going back to stock).
If it doesn't work then it shouldn't be a software issue.
Normally rooting does not affect those things.
When I flashed cm7 to my DHD the proximity sensor stopped working. It was an issue with the sensitivity settings of the sensor not being correct for AOSP roms. I fixed it using the app in this thread.

It's strange but try, in first time, to clean the sensor with a cotton-bud. If it still deosn't work, try to recalibrate your proximity sensor with the following apk : DHD Proximity Sensor Recalibrator
Good luck !
I had the same problem.
But today I was replacing the back cover with the black one and in the process I saw A LOT of dust around the phone's earspeaker. The proximity sensor was hardly visible at all. I cleaned it up, put everything back together and it's working like a charm. Even power led is now 2 times brighter lol

I get a huge error when I use DHD proximity recalibrator.. and I also tried cleaning with a cotton bud.. the problem still persists..

[Q] Auto-Rotating and Proximity sensor are not working

my device is LG-G3-D855.
after upgrading the software to android 5.0 from LG PC Suit, and after a day passed, I noticed that my auto-rotation is not working, and the proximity sensor is not responding during a call and the screen remains active.
I tested the sensors through hidden menu and saw that they are actually working and they are not stocked.
what is the solution? is it a software problem?
I also did downgrade the OS to the stock one and the problem still remains.
I'm sorry I am not able to help, but I am able to tell you I came to the forums today to post the exact same issue.
I had been using Liquid and CM12 for a while and my proximity sensors and brightness sensors (as well as screen turning off when I bring phone to my ear) were not working. I simply assumed it was an AOSP problem.
I just recently flashed the new stock lollipop rom that's on the development forum and I am having the same problem still. I do not know how to fix it and I'm hoping someone out there can help us!
edit: everytime I try to recalibrate the proximity sensor in settings, settings 'unexpectantly closes'

Dang, same thing on my end. I've tried several different Roms/Kernels and still nothing. If I find a solution, I'll be sure to let you know!
Bump
Im having this issue as well. Anyone?
I've just resolved the same issue. No matter ROM I flashed to my LG G3 all the sensors were gone. The only thing it fixed that was flashing TOT using lg flash. More details on : htt ps: //forum.xda-developers. com/showthread .php?t= 2785089
ADD: The updated method worked for me NOT the original one.
Fingers crossed.
