Guys, do you know a way to disable the proximity sensor via software on harmattan? I remember that this was possible on N900 by editing a system file.
I've already searched on the forum but I haven't found anything useful.
I've been having problems with the proximity sensor of my N9 since I replaced its lcd. Unfortunately the frame of the lcd I've installed is not as tight as the original one so the screen seems to come out of some millimeters from the phone itself causing the proximity sensor misbehavior.
After I've applied some glue to the plastic frame of the lcd the situation has improved but the problem still comes out from time to time and I'm sure it will arise again if the phone will fall down to the ground.
I believe that by disabling the proximity sensor I will still be able to make calls without problems by locking the phone with the power button in the same way I use to do on my N900.
I'm kindly looking forward to your suggestions. Thank you in advance!
