Proximity sensor is not working at all in my Redmi Note 8 Pro. Screen remains always on during calls. I have tried to calibrate it through CIT menu but the value remains to 5.0 even hovering over it. Please, help !
Unfortunately I have the same problem, rotating the phone horizontally and back vertically sometimes helps to automatically turn off screen during calls... or... pressing power button :/
For me sensor problem "only" occurs in 50% of connections

hi every one,
My phone proximity sensor are not working i checked in the settings it's Turn On But Still The Are Not workings,... And Even i Install os Many Times Through Odin Because Of This Problem But No use ..
Please Help me Is This A Hardware issue
There's a way to check if it's malfunctioning. Start your phone, and head to the dialer, and type *#0*#, and a screen should come up with all sorts of buttons on it. Tap "Sensor" in the middle, and you should have a screen with a spinny thing. If you hold your hand near the proximity sensor, the white background should turn green and your phone should vibrate. If it doesn't do that, your sensor may be malfunctioning. To exit it, double-tap the back button until it exits.

Sent from my iPhone (sometimes my codina)
thak u for your help , i had done the thing which you had tell bought it is on white screen it doesnot turn green ... so this is a hardware issue ...
Even though my screen timeout is 5 mimnutes, during a phone call the screen dims at 10 seconds and switches off at 30 seconds. There are no settings I can see to stop it from doing that.
One setting which works indirectly is "screen stays on while you are looking at it" - it sort of works but is a global setting that also affects other things.
The tablet does not have a proximity sensor. Maybe Android is reading 0 for the proximity sensor and thinks that the phone is in your ear?
Any ideas hwo to fix this?

10.5". It does not appear to have a proximity sensor, only a light sensor.
Then again the fact that the phone app puts the screen to sleep after 30 seconds is probably not related at all to the proximity sensor.
Hi everyone, I have issue with proximity sensor, when the autobrightbess is off during incoming or outgoing call, the display turns off with delay (after 3 seconds i put the phone on ear), if i turn on autobrightness proximity sensor works properly and display turns off immediately, tried to calibrate in hw test and in other programms from play market, no result. Does anyone face such issue. Can i fix it or thi is hardware problem.
No such issue here, try factory reset or update if you are not in latest firmware
Hello,
I have a issue on the lockscreen, when receive new notifications the lockscreen don't wake up to show the new notifications. I have ambiant display enabled with the correct settings. Running latest oxygen oos.
Any help appreciated to fix this issues.

Here is what helps for most users:
HERE'S THE FIX:
CULPRIT: Proximity Sensor.
LOCATION: Just below the Front Camera. If you Flash a bright LED light you would see 2 small sensors on the screen itself.
HOW TO: Whenever your Ambient Display stops working-
1. Just turn off the display by pressing the power button once.
2. Now take a bright LED light, preferably use another smartphone's LED Flashlight.
3. Just bring the light close to the proximity sensor (1-2mm away) and hold it for 4-5 seconds, then turn on the display by pressing the power button then turn it off. Repeat this 2-3 times.
You will notice that the double tap to wake and raise to wake feature starts working again.
Well mine did 3 out of 3 times.
It's basically the issue of the proximity sensor that need recalibration.
I hope someone from the OnePlus team is reading this and does the needful to fix this issue once and for all.
Till then keep trying my LED flashlight method to reactivate the Ambient Display.

Hello mate,
Thx for the reply but as mentioned I have a 7t that doesn't have the proximity sensor anymore?
AOD works but the notifications are not light up the lockscreen when receive them on the lockscreen. With or without AOD enabled.

Hi,
my Redmi Note 8 Pro shows problems when starting a phone call.
The display gets dark and cannot be reactivated without restarting the device.
I suppose the proximity sensor is not working properly, so I would like to disable it to confirm my idea.
But if I try to find settings for incoming or outgoing calls in the phone app there is nothing similar.
Does anyone have a hint for me ?
Thanks and best regards,
Erwin
Hi,
same problem here with Redmi Note 8.
I also tried PixelExperience ROM but same behaviour.
Sensor calibration in CIT can't be done because "Calibration" and "Test" buttons are greyed out.
"Proximity sensor test" app says that the sensor is always sensing something even if not covered by anything.
Are there any other possible fixes or is this a hardware defect?
