Turn off proximity sensor

[Ingrid_Abildgaard]

My proximity sensor is very slow, and it annoys me a lot. I would like to turn it completely off, but I can’t find out how to do so. Does anyone have a suggestion?

It can’t be turned off but you can disable it by placing ALU foil between the sensor and the screen:

FP2 Screen can't be reactivated during/after calls - See first post for Workarounds

Hi, I have the same issue with the proximity sensor. I’ve found a workaround on the net (FP2 does not seem to be the only one with proximity sensor trouble). I pushed a small piece of aluminium foil on the sensor (see picture below). It makes the sensor feel that there is always light and the screen never turns off. I will see with time if the workaround is not worst than the problem: the screen is on during calls so the cheek can interact with the screen. [image]
