  • If you are having issues with long calls on your android phone aka Proximity sensor issue while taking calls in this video I will try to solve that issue by changing the default google dialer to fix the proximity sensor issue that is found on many android phones now.

    Main issue is actually the newer proximity sensors/AI accelerometer based implementation used for all the v shape/u-shaped notch/punch hole are poorly designed/calibrated in budget devices. They used to work reliably when we used to have thick Bezels in budget devices.

    Mom was facing this issue to an extreme on her Realme device and it was really bugging her, so much so that she wished she had her Redmi Note 5 from years ago although this phone is way better in literally everything else. You can count on GeekyRanjit to address the actual things we need in our phones like cellular call quality and stuff. Thanks and Happy New year!
    P.S. I've been seeing some issues with screen going black during WhatsApp voice messages and not properly switching to the speakers instead of earpiece on some Android devices too.

    I'm genuinely speaking about my story 29th Dec 2022. My POCO F1 2019 model connected with tws earbuds, lying flat on table, while i was having a conversation over the google meet audio call. As voice call was hung up, My screen turned up and as i was picking up my phone above from the table, Proximity sensor closed the screen because of my hand reflection, To this day my phone never woke up. Went to XIAOMI service centre (got response of motherboard replacement), Went to local hand repair hub in the city (got response of I.C. change, ultimately 6 hrs later final reply of motherboard replacement). Eventually let go of my 4 yr old master tech of 2019. Purchased Galaxy Z Fold 4. I'm so happy to see this issue being raised by the prominent tech reviewer of all time. Thanks Ranjeet sir for speaking about the issue.

    I'm using Realme 7 Pro
    During a call, the screen goes full black and I'm not able to interact with the phone until the call is disconnected.
    Because of this proximity sensor issue, the always on display keeps turning off automatically after a couple of seconds.

    I have had such a problem with the proximity sensor since the early spring of this year, although it had never happened before, and the phone is almost 5 years old. The point is as follows. While listening to voice messages (for example, in Whatsapp), the screen goes off, and the sound is automatically turned down to a minimum. And there is also no way to unlock the screen until you finish listening to the voice message. There is a similar problem with classic calls: the screen is blocked, which makes it impossible to reset the call after a conversation. And I also can't hear the interlocutor, because due to blocking, I don't have time to turn on the loud speaker, only with the input of the pin code of the screen it can be done. But with voice messages (in Whatsapp for example) this kind of stuff doesn't work - even after entering the pin code, the screen immediately goes out again and is blocked.
    And the strangest thing is that the screen locks itself when accepting a call, although I do not bring the phone itself to my ear. The same picture is seen when trying to listen to a voice message in the messenger by clicking on the play button. All this did not happen, I repeat, until the spring of this year. And it is unclear what could be causing this. I don't have the option to turn off the Proximity Sensor in the settings. I used the Android Proximity Sensor Reset/Override app, but it didn't help either. During the test, the display is green all the time, although it should switch to red when the sensor is working properly. And now, probably the best solution for me is to turn off this sensor altogether. Only I do not know how to do it, as I have already written above.
