Hi all,
Is there anyway to disable the proximity sensor while on the phone?
When my 4 year old daughter uses the phone, she doesn't always hold it on her ear and the screen will go on and off and her face ends up pressing buttons and hangs up on whomever she's talking to.
I tried pressing the power button to turn the screen off, but once you touch the proximity sensor the screeen comes back on.
I'm using the stock Sprint ROM. Please help this is the most annoying feature of this phone.
Thanks i advance

i saw that option in advanced config tools, if im not wrong
Nope, i just installed it and checked. It's not in there. Thanks for the suggestion though.
any other ideas?
S2U2 can turn off the screen on a call, haven't tried it on the TP2/Tilt 2 yet though as I personally like the proximity sensor, although sometimes I find it doesn't work.
FYI, when I let my 4yo use my Tilt 2 it's in speakerphone..
TouchLockPro
You can try TouchLockPro, it has a built in InCallTweak, using the GSensor.
It seems that my phone dosen`t have this function:When I put my phone near my face,the screen turns off and when take it away, the screen turns on.
ps:I really like the rom which I`m using,I do not want to change it.
So could somebody just tell me how to activate this function without changing rom.
THANKS IN ADVANCE
Okay。done。used this ：http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=4945129&postcount=17
As you guys might have read my display got broken and i replaced it myself. However in the process I damaged a few thing. The home button does not work and the proximity sensor is broken. The problem with the proximity sensor would just be fixed by disabling the blank screen when calling. Can anyone make a odin package (cannot do update.zip due to broken home button). Or tell me how to disable this function?
Many thanks in advance!
Mine is broken too and now everytime i'm calling the screen turns black. Which is no problem except when you are calling a computer a needs to "2" to proceed.....
Does someone have a sollution?
See this post. it may help, but you need root.

SOLVED.
Used the free app ProximityScreenOff. Its in the market.
Make sure you select the Proximity sensor instead of the Light sensor in settings.

Not solved.
proximity screen off app.
Dosen't solve my problem with screen turn off, during call.
I have a default proximity sensor, which I need to disable.
I can do it, very easy with miui rom.
But I have tried and tried with Cyanogenmod without any luck.

Not really the place for a request, but hey, since it did not seem to bother anyone, go ahead!
Since earlier today I started experiencing problems on my HTC Desire with the proximity sensor. For those that does not know, the proximity sensor switches the screen off when you receive or make a call and places the phone against your ear. When the call is completed and you remove the phone from your ear, the screen become active again.
In my case the moment I make or receive a call, the screen gets disabled. I do not even have to put the phone against my ear. It also means that the touchscreen is disabled and all buttons are disabled which means I cannot end the call, switch on the speaker or enable the keypad. None of the buttons, even the power one works. When the call gets ended by the other party the the screen will be enabled again. The only way to get a working phone again when there is nobody on the other side to end the call is to remove the battery.
What I also find weird is where the sensor should be, top left next to the HTC logo, is nothing. Does not matter how I look at it, there is just the black strip.
I have searched to see if there is some app that can disable the proximity sensor since I do not really need it but have found nothing. So if anybody knows of an app that can disable the proximity sensor then I would appreciate the link. If you have any other suggestions, please comment below.
Can't you enable your screen by the power button?
No i can`t

I just installed CM7on my phone and the power button works.
My first suggestion would have been to test if and how the proximity sensor works, for example with this app:
play. google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.tigermonster.proxfinder
Otherwise, for just disabling the sensor there should be another app (which however requires root):
play. google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.hatcyl.android.Hardware_Disabler
(you have to remove the space in the link because as a new user I'm not allowed to post links... they don't like new users here, right?)
A bad kernel flash can cause it... flash another kernel according to the android version and rom you are using.. If cm7 and android 2.3.7 then snq- 's kernel would be nice .. if on ICS then I recommend tiamat's kernel..

My screen is cracked over the proximity sensor so when i make calls the screen goes black until the call ends or i reset the phone.
In touchwiz there is an option to turn off proximity during calls but I would like to use PA, so does anyone know of an app, hack, mod, or setting that will disable the proximity sensor on aosp roms?
TIA,
dL
