disable the switch's sensor from the menu "Call settings" by unchecking the "Always use sensor" and instead of adding the checkmark in the "Keep alwaus the screen on" the same menu. then, usually, fully functional :D

Thank LsTeam, and ThePasto :D

could you tell me wether you could see the checkcall running?

i can't see it except APP management .thx.

EDIT: THIS METHOD DOESN'T FIX 100% THE PROXIMITY SENSOR, WE ARE WORKING TO SOLVE THIS PROBLEM COMPLETELY

OK IT'S TIME TO RELEASE MY WORKAROUND :D READY?

0) INSTALL OLDSENSORS PATCH

1) REMOVE all apps like sanity or mine

2) adb pull /system/build.prop

3) open build.prop in your adb folder

4) add this line at the end of the file:

hw.acer.psensor_calib_max_base=32717

hw.acer.psensor_calib_min_base=32716

hw.acer.psensor_thres=500

hw.acer.psensor_mode=1

5) CHECK if there are other strings like hw.acer.psensor_X in your build.prop file and REMOVE them

6) save and close build.prop

7) adb remount

8) adb push build.prop /system/build.prop

9) REBOOT your phone

10) enjoy :D

11) and PLEASE, tell me if it works for you :9

bye!

edit: oh...and thanks to thepasto for his precious help!

start to working on LED issue :o

Using it with latest 1.5.27 miui by sundawg (compass working... so oldsensors??? ) and works really good... thank you so much for your work...

Doesn't work on CM7 oldsensors.

Screen just doesn't turn off...

Guest LSteam

impossible... this patch change ONLY the uncovered value, not the covered...

check covered/ucovered values with a sensor test please :D

Guest bais
Posted (edited)

Sensor test always shows 1 as the value.

But I don't use thepasto's ROM, since I get broken baseband after several reboots.

I use f1rSt's ROM, but I changed the boot.img and lib folder with thepastos one, maybe that's what makes the ROM bug.

(And yes, I applied the Oldsensors boot)

i encourred the same problem, solved with flash thepasto rom

Guest bais

I won't be able to use it if it requires thepasto's ROM.

Dunno why I have the baseband problem, but well having fixed sensors when you can't call is pretty pointless.

Wonder what is in thepasto's ROM which makes the Sensor work...

i think my p-sensor is broken... :D

I will anticipate very much .

thx for your hard work!

ok now i'm back from school...

essentially...after 5/10 seconds from the screenoff the phone go in a kind of sleep mode and don't care about sensors or others...

you can check thi in this way: make a call and after 1 second from the screenoff press VOL - ...the call volume will decrease... IF you make a call, put the screen off (with your face near the phone or with power button), wait about 15 seconds and press VOL - (or VOL + :o) the volume of the call WILL NOT decrease... because the phone is sleeping...

so...with my patch sensor work very fine, but the phone sleeps and don't care about it :D

with the ORIGINAL acer kernel this problem doesn't appear and the sonsor during a call works fine... so i think that it is another bad commit of chocolate-kernel...

me and thepasto will investigate very soon :D

as always, sorry for my bad english :(

tnx for ur work we're waiting for news

ok the story is really hard... i think that a good workaround it to apply my patch and use sanity that force the phone to stay awake...

please do some test with my patch and sanity and tell me if you encour problems...thanks :D

Guest LSteam

and i noticed that we don't have to enable proximity feature of sanity app, just bring it install to run during a call and bring the phone awake :o

so it will be simple (really?) to find what code bring the phone awake ant implement it in liquidsettings :D a step closer to a final solution... :D
