Love this awesome phone but as of late the proximity sensor on this note has either broke or is buggy. First started to notice that the red light of the proximity sensor would not turn off. After a while as I make phone calls my screen will turn off but as I put my phone away from my face it doesn't turn back on.
Have the Rogers HTC One X....its rooted and bootloader unlocked using the HTCDev method. The only problem i have is with the Proximity Sensor!!
During calls, unless i COMPLETELY cover the sensor, as in the phone is pressed against my face/ear...the phone will stay on!!
So now its seems like it only has two settings: Screen ON when nothing is there.
I have a P925. Unlocked it though IMEI, my proximity sensor was acting up, since the screen went off during calls and no button would bring it back. I checked the rest of the components on the same flex cable (camera, earspeaker, noise mic) and all work fine except for the proximity sensor, so i thought it might be a software problem.
I rooted the phone and installed the clockworkMOD thing...
I hope this is okay to post here...
I was considering trying to put my HTC Sensation 4G up FS/FT in the Market but its got a busted proximity sensor and light sensor. Not sure when/how it happened. Other than that the phone is in excellent condition with an Anker battery and TPU case.

How a proximity sensor works:
Basically there is a modulated infrared emitter and a correspondent IR receiver. When the modulated light is reaching the receiver, the sensor will become active.
In the mobile phones, the structure is built like in the below drawing.
Hi everyone, has this happened to anyone else ?
Since a few days now i see that my proximity sensor is glowing red al the time, it is very very low when the phone is unlocked and a little bit stronger when it is locked ...
I've found a video on youtube where a guy has almost the same problem, but at his phone it is glowing in another color and mine is glowing red, he says that viber makes a
Hi guys, my mom owns a Huawei Ideos X5 U8800 which is maintained by me and currently running on MIUI Project-X dated back to June 1. Been running fine for the past couple of months with superb battery life, until recently. After updating some applications in the Google Play Store, the battery life dropped tremendously.
I've been looking around for the last days and none of the answers to the questions made have helped me and I'm bumping my head with something that perhaps is simple to solve .... I want to work with the proximity sensor and what I'm doing is that if I put the finger on the sensor it turns off the screen and if I remove the finger away it turns back on the screen!
Can someone help me turn off the proximity sensor?? I've tried build prop editing and multiple apps but its never listed. I really need some help because every call i make i have to end up doing a battery pull to see the screen again. I'm running paranoid android 2.99
