Hello,
I have my desire with a faulty proximity sensor, witch means that sometimes I cant hang up my phone calls
Is there any application that can assign any hardware button for my screen to wake up during a phone call?
I tried programs that claim to do that, but the information and action performed by the proximity sensor seems to override all programs.
can someone help me?
best regards
Does the power button not do this?
hi,
nope
with an active call and proximity sensor on, I cant get any hardware button to work.

Then no .
Just go to your retailer with it. If it's under warranty, they're obligated to replace it for you.
it's not under warranty...
isnt there a way to disable the proximity sensor? I wouldn't mind if the screen stays on all the time when in call..
can someone help?
regards
Turn your screen timeout to 30 mins? If your proximity sensor isn't working then it won't turn the screen dark when you put the phone to your ear.

My problem might be with the two sensors (proximity and light). As soon as I make a call the proximity sensor orders the screen to shut down and to wake up the screen I have to point a bright light...
I think the solution... if there is... is to disable the proximity and light sensor forcing values.
any help besides get the phone to repair and pay $$$$
If you plugin the headset you get the screen back.
I've just noticed that whilst in a call if I move the phone away from my face turning the screen back on then cover the proximity sensor to turn the screen off again the notification light flicks on full brightness as the screen goes off. Anyone else have this?
Take it to be just mine then?

I have a slight issue with my GSM GN.
The problem happens only when I am on a call ( sending or receiving).
When I am on a call if I am requested to , let's say, "press 1"
I bring up the pad to press 1 and before I can press 1 the screen becomes black, comes back to normal and goes back to black before I had a chance to press 1 again.
And it becomes a missed call.
I also noticed, again when I am on the dialer, during the call if I put the phone to my ear the screen again turns black until I get it away from my ear.
If during this call I put the phone on my desk the screen turns dark.
Back to normal screen when I lift it from the desk.
I would appreciate any input to help me understand this weird behavior.
I believe it is the proximity sensor that determines when to turn the screen on/off during calls.

What would be the course of action in this case?
Does somebody has a solution in mind?:fingers-crossed:
Usually proximity sensors help save battery life when making a call turning the screen of assuming that you have your phone close to your ear. But if you want to disable the sensor figure out a way to block the receptor of the sensor, as it is confirmed of two parts. The emitter and the receiver. If the receiver doesn't get a reflection of the emitter then
The screen won't go off. Hope I explained myself

Hello!
After I got my phone back from repair with new screen and motherboard i have got this annoying problem when taking calls, screen goes on and off, sometimes stays off when I try rotate it during a call.
Any ideas?
The phone using proximity sensor to detect your face, for the case if anything get cover/near the sensor (under 9cm; located left to the htc logo) during call the screen will turn off and disable touch screen too. This meant to avoid user accidentaly ends the call. Please note that there is also a 0.5-1.0 second delayed for the screen to turn on/off based on the sensor.
If you phone's problem is on the case, then it is nothing to wrong.. else please elaborate briefly on the issue..
Anyone else have the issue when accepting or placing a call the screen goes completely bat **** crazy? Screen turns off with a stutter and then never turns back on unless you wait for 10 secs and then gotta try to unlock it 4 times before it'll finally come up? And I'm talking about my phone went 98% full retard during every episode it has. Didn't occur until I flaahed my first kitkat ROM.
Maybe you're talking about the phone screen turning off during call because proximity sensor? Happens to me often. Even when I'm Skyping from my phone, if I put anything near the proximity sensor, turns the screen off and takes forever to turn back on. Same with phone calls. Not sure how to turn off the proximity sensor.. Does more harm than good.. Got me at least.

Under call settings there is an option to turn off the proximity sensor but it does not work with Skype though.
