[Q] CM Proximity Sensor issue - Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II

Hey guys just downloaded the, "stable" 10.1.3-l900 from CM website and for some reason during calls my phone freezes up after the proximity sensor activates. However, there's no option to disable the proximity sensor in the stock dialer so now I can't hang up or use the dialer during a call as the screen is simply stuck on black. Anybody have a fix for this?

[CM7.1] Proximity sensor stuck at 0.0000 cm

Hi,
as measured by Z-DeviceTest, the proximity sensor on my Desire is stuck at 0.000 cm in all lighting conditions (including a very bright torch right on top of it).
At first I suspected this was the known problem with dust settling on the sensor, but I've blown and sucked (teh-eh) with everything I have, from every angle, and the sensor is still stuck at that value.
The problem shows up both in CM7 and with the stock firmware.
I have to assume the sensor is broken.
I'm looking for ways to disable the proximity sensor, and in particular to stop it from locking the screen during calls. Naturally, since the sensor is stuck at 0.0000 cm, any time a call is initiated the screen locks up, preventing me from ending the call, dialing tones and so on.
Alternatively, I'd be happy with a way to override the screen lock via hardware buttons. The power\unlock button doesn't work
Inserting a headset during a call does unlock the screen, but naturally this is not a satisfying solution (for example, I can't use this method to make calls while driving, using the speaker).
Solutions tried with no positive effect:
- editing build.prop with "ro.proximity.delay=0"
- using trackball\volume button wake
- using screebl, screen off to control automatic screen locks
Thank you for your time.
Anyone have any pointers?
Is it really hopeless?
Are you root? If so have you considered flashing a rom with the option to disable the proximity sensor? (for example miui-au has that option)
Yes, I have a rooted device. I didn't know miui had that options, I'll check it out; thank you!

Proximity Sensor

Hello. I've been noticing some extrange behavior on my proximity sensor. When i open my sms app or whatsapp the proximity sensor turns on. And when i exit some of the conversations it turn off. But sometimes the sensor wont turn off until i reboot my phone. Im using android revolution 4.2 version with unlimited multiwindow app mod. Could this mod be the reason? Or is this the normal behavior of the sensor?
Thanks I appreciate any help!
Found it. The reason was for the movement action of calling to the person I have on the screen. Stupid me!

Proximity Sensor Broken - Nokia XL

Hello!
I've started to have a problem with proximity sensor. While calling, the screen get black and there is no way to turn it on (it turn if the other persone close the call only).
I tried to install a proximity sensor controller utility and it says it's always 0cm distance. By touching it I found it unlocks sometimes under pression or temporarily if I blow in it (but after a little it locks again).
I searched in settings an options to deactivate it but I really can't find it..
Can you tell me where I can find the option to turn off the proximity sensor, please?
And is there any way to fix this problem eventually? However I'd be happy if I can just deactivate the sensor..
Thanks

Stock 7.1.1 & Google Dialer 8.0.148481159 proximity sensor not working

Running 7.1.1 on my nexus 5x with google dialer 8.0.148481159.
When in call proximity sensor is not disabling or enabling the screen.
Very annoying to have to hit the power button to activate/deactivate screen so that my face doesn't hit all sorts of buttons while in call!
Downloaded AIDA64 to test if proximity sensor working properly, values change normally when putting hand in front of sensor.
Anyone else have this problem? Is it an issue that google is aware of and is working on?
