hi - is there a way to make Desire screen be locked while making a phone call od lock the phone by power button to do so?

Um.. mine does that automatically? I.e., when I raise the phone to my ear, the screen goes black...

Yes, i believe it should. Unless you have very ample pockets i don't see why or how the device would tell the diference between your face and the inside of your pocket!

Yer it built it with the movement sensor and the light sensor.
I.e when the movement sensor determins it been moved ( out of your pocket whatever) and the light is dim ( next to your ear) your phone locks

When I connect my Desire to my BT Headset, my Desire stays unlocked during and after the call in my pocket, which causes odd things: Sometimes, I touch - by accident - the hang up button or I start some random applications and this is all because the phone remains unlocked in your pocket.
It would be good to have a lock app, that recognizes a connected (wired or wireless) headset and then changes the locking behaviour.
Thanks

This is my problem too. could someone suggest an app????

i also have exactly this problem. i used lockbot - but this app was buggy and sometimes sense and the IME crashed. im searching for a sense-lock-solution.

[Q] Black screen after Call-end.

Hi,
i got my Desire rootet ( S-OFF, Clockworkmod 3.0.5, PirateRum ( based on Cyanogenmod 7 nightly )
my hboot is: 0.93.001
PVT1.
SLCD
Now.
If anyone call me, the screen goes black, normally.
If my partner ends the call, the screen wont wake up from this "sleep" mode.
If i type the power button the buttons for search and home become bright...
I think its a bug with the SLCD Screen... anyone got this problems to?

Dude,
The desire has a proximity sensor, so when you answer a call and put it by your ear, it switches off the screen.
Perhaps there is a bit of a bug in that rom, so it forgets to switch the screen back on when the call ends.
I highly doubt its a hardware issue.
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App

Sometimes it works, sometime it dont works.
This Desire is 2 Weeks old... Very sick. but thanks

Hi,
I have exactly the same problem with my Desire SLCD, i tried to go back to stock RUU but nothing changed
If someone got a solution.

Hey Hey i have the solution!
I fixed the problem of blank screen by cleaning dust between screen and earpiece (especially at left, where is the proximity sensor).
You can clean it like me with an air duster spay or/and with a vacuum cleaner
It works well now!!!
Enjoy!!!

how to?
i am interested

guys, check pls in what type of network screen stays black 3g or gsm,
this issue is after call only or in regular use from time to time?
this is know problem on desire, there can be falutly mobo, if your screen dont react and stays black - only battery unplug helps and this happends when your phone trying to switch between network GSM to 3G/HSDPA or from 3g to gsm
was having this issue long time + self rebooting and sent by desire to repair, they replacing mobo and know everything work fine for me,
proximity senzor works good in many cases, you can download apps to test you sensors if the proximity sensor react correctly and changing values then is not broken and pro problem is elsewhere,

face this problem on my SLi9003 and no one answer my question

This worked for me…. Finally

I'm having the same problem on my Atrix HD. This fixed it. There's an Xposed module called App Settings. If you don't know what it is Google it. I looked up my phone app, dialer app and com.android.incallui in the App Setings module and selected the setting 'Show when locked'. ( you must click the little floppy disk icon to save the setting) this shows the phone and dialer ui's o er the lock screen, but still allows the proximity sensor to turn the screen off when it's to my head

[Q] Phone call disconnects when open screen ??

Hi;
While on a call, the screen will close. While still talking I press the side button to open the screen and the call will disconnect.
How do I correct this?
Thank you.

Same question. Its just stupid, how on earth I`m supposed to wake up screen without disconnecting a call ?!

Go to: settings>Accessibility>un-check-power button ends call

what's funny is i'm pretty sure that this setting is not selected out of the box, so you guys must have went and enabled it yourselves!

I don't know about yours but my SGN seems to have proximity sensor near the speaker and it seems to turn screen on as soon as I take it away from my ear auto-magically It may "lag", but it's fair enough for me...

Mine did the same thing today. I confirmed the accessibility link cited above was not checked. Proximity sensor is irrelevant, I was on a two hour conference call and speaker using speaker phone mode. Screen times out and shuts down on its own, which also shuts off the prox sensor.

Call tilt problem

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..

Question Phone calls suddenly shut off / false screen touches / bad proximity sensor

Just wanted to know if other users have this issue.
I do a lot of phone calls for my work and since I switched to this phone I can not make a decent phone call at all... lol
Every couple of minutes or less the call breaks off. That is either because the other side can't hear me anymore, either the connection breaks off.
Also noticed that when receiving notifications during calls, the screen lightens up so I do get false touches which results in a total chaos on my screen...
I already placed sim to other slot, tried all different preferred network type, rebooted...nothing helps.
This is really annoying as on my other phones like F2 Pro and MI9 all ok.
Anyone having the same issue?
EDIT : 16.04.2021 I noticed now that due to the bad ultrasone proximity sensor the screen lightens up and makes a lot of false touches resulting sometimes in a mute of the mic on dialer or even shutting down the phonecall itself

Yes, it has also happened to me that the screen does not go out when I am on the phone. If you take the phone away from your ear for a moment and then go back to it, the display goes off.

Yea already am doing that often because of the screen lightens up.
But did you also encounter a lot of false touches and even the call shutting off?

Check you up * # * # 6484 # * # * Light Sensor or calibrate.

This is related to proximity sensor
Value is 5.0 when no covered and 0 when covered.
Test is ok but in call screen didn't turn off.....so should be a softaware bug I think.

Yea I already tested that before this post. It's working fine. No problem with that.
Problem is that when receiving a notification the screen lights up and it shouldnt. I cannot find the issue for now.
Also and this is more important : when making a call, the line gets cutoff (people cant hear me but I can).
This happens so often and never had this with my other phones running.
Already unchecked 5G, even 4G and now on 3G. Same issue.
Will look further into it...

Do you use always on display ? Maybe that's the cause? Maybe Miui optimization?
I didn't put sim card from my f1 to f3 yet, but you are making me check this out. Ill put the sim card as soon as I get case and glass. On telegram I have not seen anyone to mention this issue.

Nope not using AOD. Things are set to basic as to rule out issues.
Saturday I'll be unlocked though and going to check the fastboot xiaomi.eu rom
If you can make a test later on, do make a longer phone call. Also send a message to your phone when you're making a call and see what happens.

Had the same issue with my poco x3 nfc - same issue with the f3. I think either I got used to it with the X3 or it got fixed....

Yea I read.
Anyway, the phonecall shutting off (other cant hear me) was all due to the fact that I accidentally muted the mic (or even false touched the red button or whatever) on the screen because of the false touches when screen suddenly lightened up.
The ultrasone proximity sensor is not the best solution to dim the screen when calling.
You can even test that in kernel settings. The value 5 goes to 0 even from behind or from the top. So in some cases the screen will light up suddenly.
On tweakers forum there are a lot of people who have the same issue with the proximity sensor too.
An infrared sensor would have been much better....

I have a similar issue. I use a pretty thick case and it breaks the proximity sensor such that during a call the screen turns off but after the call when i move the phone away from my head, it remains permanently off, like it still thinks the phone is near my head.
Which tweakers forum are you referring to?

That's indeed true. It happens that the screen remains black after moving the head from the screen during call. You can even trigger that when opening the sensor part in the kernel (tap on it for a few times and test the proximity sensor - you'll notice that you even can let it stay on 0 by slowly removing your hand...)
But for me these false touches due to the screen lights up during a call makes it even worse.
tweakers translate if needed - starts from end of page 6.
Btw, I'm just using the case that came with the package.
Anyway, since they fixed the haptic crackling sound issue on v1204 eu and having already no issues on battery drain (9%/h SOT and 0.4%/h idle) , the only issue for me remains the proximity sensor.

If you pick up the call and wait 1sg or so to raise it to the ear, the screen turns off well, but if you pick up the call quickly it does not turn off, it may be a google dialer failure

Perhaps you can bring this issue to Poco's attention directly via: https://c.po.co/global/
I would also like to know if it's a hardware or software related issue.

I already did as for the haptic motor sound issue (which is fixed now).
So lets wait for a response...

For me if I use the case that came with the package, proximity sensor works fine , it also works fine if the phone is naked. but with a thick case, then it becomes a bit crazy such that i have to map the power button to end the call, else I wont be able to access the phone after or during a call unless i shake it hard

Reboot and shutdown issues have been acknowledge by Poco, will addresses in the upcoming updates:
Poco F3 battery drain & random reboot issues to be fixed with next update
A community mod has informed that the battery drain and random reboot issues on the Poco F3 are to be fixed with the next update.

I really hope it's a software issue because I plan on placing my order for phone this weekend.

I wonder where's the proximity and ultrasonic sensor. *#*#miui#*#* can't test it. Using nillkin's case, one works perfectly, while the one with the thicker camera protector blocks the sensor and calling won't dim the screen.....

experienced this with the global rom but now flashed EU rom so far everything is ok.
