[Q] How to change Proximity Sensor setting? - Samsung Epic 4G Touch

Upon enabling the 'The power key ends calls' setting under Accessibility, it mentioned that the 'Promixity Sensor' setting was going to be enabled as well.
I have not seen such a setting anywhere.

[Q] CM7 - Display stays off during call

hello,
i have a problem with the sensor during call... when i move the phone away from my head, the display stays off, so that i can't stop the call (have to take out battery to stop call).
is there a workaround for that bug? i tried switching off "proximity sensor", but doesn't help... but also i want that feature
this is the only failure of cm7 that should be solved (in my opinion) to make it the best rom for defy
thanks in advance
SensorTest and plot app will see if the sensor is working
i've testet proximity sensor with an app called "phone tester"... this app shows, that proximitysensor recognizes, that i move near to the phone, but doesn't recognize if i move away from phone... i think this is an cm7-bug, because it works with original rom...
is there a workaround? is it possible to try another proximity-sensor-driver?
which is your cm7 version?
atm: nightly-build from 5.8.11, but it was also on rc1v2...
after a deep search in xda-forum i found a solution: i touched over the sensor with little pressure and now it works
but on stock i never had to touch it... it works always on stock and sometimes not on cm7 without touching the sensor... i am confused
You could try goto settings - Acessibility - "Power Button Ends Call".
Use power button to ends call which you don't need the display to turn on for ending a call.
thats a good idea! thank you!! ... btw: that option should be in "call settings" instead of accessibility... i think no one would expect it there
There's an option in Call Settings called "Always use proximity" which may be useful, and "also Keep screen awake".... both seem relevant to your problem. In Display settings there is also "In-accurate proximity" which I would suggest is enabled....
Sensor during call works on my CM7. For information, I've manual brightness, not auto... perhaps...

Flight mode notification popup

Hello all,
i've a little (not important) problem with a quick profiles app:
i've a "night profile" that is not able to enable flight mode and i read that the issue is probably caused by the notification pop.
When i select this profile i see the airplane toggle not "totally" green for a while and then return black.
There's a workaround, a setting, a mod to fix this problem?
Thank you all for this great job.

If someone would be interested to solve the same problem (?) my answer was Tasker + Secure Settings (plugin).

[Q] Tasker & screen off

I use a Tasker profile that in case of missed call or missed SMS every "X" time, remind the missed event with a vibration in case the volume is <=0 or with a sound in case the volume of the phone is > 0.
The problem: this profile works only when the screen is ON but neither in the profile, nor in the task there is a condition about the status of the screen!
Tasker's accessibility service is already enabled.
Why other profiles that switch on or off WiFi or bluetooth work while the screen is OFF?
There is something special about Z1C, Tasker to know?
Any smart Tasker user can help me, please?

Are you using Stamina mode? That may be preventing Tasker from running when you turn the screen off.

I'm using Stamina mode but I have found a solution right now!
In task properties flag keep device awake... et voilà!
Thank you!

Disabling Display Timeout not working.

I have apps like Smart Protector and Tasker that disable screen timeout for certain apps. But it doesn't seem to work display still timeouts. I'm not sure if there is some other settings that overrides it.

I'm having this issue too. I have to go to phone setting to manually set "Keep screen turned on", tasker will not do this for me.
However, on my exit task, I have tasker adjust the setting to 30s, which works.

Phone automatically going into "do not disturb" mode.

I'm missing calls and texts because my phone is going into do not disturb, seemingly randomly. All 3 default automatic rules (weekend, weeknight, and event) are set to off. Anyone got some advice?

My first guess would be that you are pressing the volume down button when you are in vibration mode.

Negative. It happens whilst just sitting on my desk (as well as other times...in my pocket, sitting in the cup-holder in my car, etc.).

I don't see a "moto actions" in the menu, but settings > sound and options > do not disturb access > there's a moto actions in there which was turned on. Turned it off. Hope that was it. Thank you.
