Help with my proximity sensor
Hi,
I was wondering if someone can offer some advice. The proximity sensor will not engage, however when i cover it i can see the screen darkening, and when removing the cover it goes back to normal brightness. anyone know what i can do in this situation? thanks in advance |
Re: Help with my proximity sensor
Is this the issue.
http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=71442 I was looking into a problem with my proximity sensor recently. I found since replacing the main ribbon my proximity sensor seems to close with strong white light. |
Re: Help with my proximity sensor
not the same issue, my display does not shut down when the sensor is covered, it only dims the screen a little bit

Re: Help with my proximity sensor
The screen should dim if this area is covered.
There's a light sensor to make the screen brighter in sunlight. |
