As far as I know, it's not a bug, its' a feature to prevent the phone unlocking in your pocket. Is the little sensor beaming a red light when unlocking the phone on the right of the front camera? I dunno if it can be turned off in CM11, but in MIUI it can be.

No, there is no light beaming when unlocking my phone.

The red light wasn't beaming already, that means that the accidental wake up setting was already turned off.

Ambient-light sensor problem

Hi!
I have a problem with ambient light sensor in my SE xperia arc. Users manual says it has this sensor, but there is no option in menu where I can activate it. Also programs like z-device test or androsensor says there is no such sensor is it broken or sth?
My Arc is from Polish Orange, unlocked by code, latest software.
Thx for help
If you hold your finger over the sensor (cover the part on the left side of the speaker) you will see that the phone changes the backlight.
Mine shure does.

I don't have this problem, maybe because accidental touch protection in settings>display is on.

actually you can use whatever screenlock wallpaper and turn on brighten screen in face recognition settings. This feature brightens the screen illuminatemore light so it can recognize your face and then return the brightness to normal.

Yes.. it shows you if you're on 2.4 or 5 ghz

It means that you are connected to a 2.4GHz WiFi network.
When you connect to a 5GHz Wifi, the "4" changes to "5".
ok so what about hotspot's "5" ?

As it was in Pie, fingerprint is back to normal.
1. Fingerprint appears even when screen is off.
2. No difference in speed.

what do you mean at point 1? Has option to dont show when you move phone, that means only when you put your finger to unlock it shows.
you are so confusing.
Settings > display > advanced > lock screen display > new notifications (turn this on) by turning this on fingerprint scanner in screen off is working for me... try it

Sorry if I sounded confusing.
What I meant by Point 1 was that despite the update and fingerprint working.
Many of my peers said the option to show fingerprint location on lockscreen wasn't working.
In my case fingerprint appeared both when my screen was on and off.

Bugs
I'm still bothered by the fact that I can't change media volume when the screen is locked.
Is the proximity sensor fixed yet? I keep accidentally triggerrimg flashlight and DND mode.
Also I don't think I'll ever get the A10 update. They're so slow. This might be the last xiaomi A1 phone I buy. Or any xiaomi phone. Where to report bugs?
This is an joke

To change the media volume with locked screen, it must be turned off - disable showing fingerprint icon and it'll work just fine. I'm using it since I bought the phone.
Proximity sensor works fine, you just need to "learn" how to use the phone - when calling, put it against your ear at angle with the top edge first, this will trigger the proximity sensor. Then push it against your ear.
To report bugs, use Feedback app from system settings.
Other phones do not need any special usage procedures, proximity sensor just works, but in A3 it is screwed.
Got this today

Proximity Sensor Question

Does the proximity sensor on this phone turn off the always on display when the phone is placed face down on a surface or put in a pocket?
It doesn't on my S20 Ultra.

Have you tried turning on accidental touch protection if that is happening to you?

Not sure, sometimes I feel random vibrations in my pocket although there aren't any notifications received. I also find accidental touch protection annoying because it doesn't let me unlock the phone in darker rooms or outside, right after sunset time :-/
I've never had an issue unlocking my device outside , at night, or any dark place w/ accidental touch protection on . Fingerprint unlock works flawlessly in anycase

Question Proximity sensor failure

Currently running Pixel Experience Plus android 11. Others dont report the same problem.
Would this be ROM based, firmware based, vendor based, or what else ??
Its a major annoyance as the tap to wake, face unlock, and position of the fingerprint reader all mean this wakes in pocket constantly.
Tried hard resets etc but stumped.

The reality is there is no proximity sensor present in mi 11x
and in miui the call screen becomes black as miui using accelerometer and some kind of hack to do that.

So this constant pocket activation is a feature ??
I cant believe everyone is just living with this ??
Unfortunately it is so and this explains why even if the phone is away from the ear but placed vertically the screen turns black.

Is that only with MIUI ??
So what combination of settings are people using to minimize this ??
I haven't had a phone without a proximity sensor in years, I didnt even think one would be sold that way.. Its unusable like this, constantly waking in pockets, error input and attempted unocks etc
Testing it (pixel experience plus) my phone never senses, in any orientation.. Others report some form of sensing.
Upright.. hand to phone.. hand over phone.. I am not getting anything.
It wakes on movement.. It wakes to attempt face unlock (I guess).. It wakes on screen touch,, it never overrides that despite there being an option to prevent accidental wake up (which has no noticeable effect). I dont see what combo of settings may be correct here.
Its currently flat out unusable.. Its a mobile phone which you cannot put in your pocket and which wakes as you carry it. People cant be just accepting this...
The Truth is truth that this phone doesn't have proximity sensor

thats now shockingly understood..
But other people report some kind of gyro / light sensor / accelerometer / etc combination thats providing some useability. Useability I dont have (Pixel experience plus 11).
The config I have so far.. Is not doing anything.. and is basically non viable..
You cant put it in your pocket !!! What kind of mobile phone cant be put in a pocket or carried..

I don't get what your problem is, plz describe it better. You say that you have problem with proximity sensor, but then you go on to say that your phone unlocks in your pocket for no reason and I see no connection between these two statements. Proximity sensor works only during calls, it has nothing to do with preventing unlocking tge smartphone in your pocket. Are you sure that you're not accidentally putting your finger on the fingerprint reader when you put it in the pocket? If you want, you can make the fingerprint reader read your fingerprint only after you press the power button, mere touching will not unlock it. But you have to change it in settings in MIUI, I am not sure how it works on your Custom ROM.
I have no problems you describe on my Poco F3 unit. If reverting to stock MIUI doesn't work, consider sending it for a warranty repair.

Yep, sounds like a hardware problem.
