Samsung galaxy S8 proximity sensor bug constantly active

proximity sensor should act for calls, in order to lock the touchscreen from being accidentally pressed by ur head / body, but indeed the Samsung S8 and the S7, seems to have a bug!

you can simply test it by pointing any camera towards the proximity sensor of the Samsung S8 or S7 and just wait,. (our eyes unable to see infrared /IR but cameras does)
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] iixxii:
proximity sensor keeps flashing

I've tested more Samsung galaxy S8 they're all got proximity sensor errors (soon as sim is inserted),.

when

*unlocking the screen

*phone screen off

*browsing

there is currently no way to disable it in the setting,. so you'll must root you device & install XPOSED to disable sensors

*rooting can brik & damage your devices, doing so is your own responsibility

Isn't it the smart alert in advance features? That thing constantly see the sensors if the phone is moving or not. Then it will alert the user on notification if the phone starts to move.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] maximus007:
Did anyone ever find a solution to this?

The issue remains on the latest Nougat update - when wifi is not connected, TMD4906 sensor time is on roughly 30%-50% seeming to cause fairly large battery drain.

Attempted a factory reset but this did not improve the situation.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] tiny_everest:
Having the same issue with sensor malfunction when on mobile data. Galaxy S7

Cannot post links yet. Here is testing I performed and posted in one of the S7 reddit threads:

When I turn the wifi off and have mobile data on I can see the same strange activity of proximity sensor (looking on the sensor through other camera). When I receive and send mobile traffic proximity sensor keeps working. Also, when I launch Spotify and turn the display off/lock the device proximity sensor keeps working CONSTANTLY (b/c Spotify is still using mobile traffic).

When I turn wifi on and try to reproduce by going through the same steps I see no sensor activity.

I would assume though that some process identifies mobile data as a phone call.

So, the better your mobile phone signal 3G/LTE coverage is the less time proximity sensor will be used as request/response cycle goes faster meaning better battery life =)

Hello!

I'm suffering the same problem in a S7 Edge, anyone found a solution?
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] amon87:
Unfortunatelly, unless you are rooted, there's nothing you can do.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] compoundz:
My phone is rooted. Few days ago tryed with xposed + disable sensors module, but I have the feeling that what you gain by not using the sensor is the same that you lost by blocking them, in terms of battery drain.

May be it's time to say "Good bye" to Samsung.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] amon87:
Mine for sure. My old xperia Z2 was a better performer on a battery than this crap. To make matters worse, Samsung did nothing to solve the problem and its persistent since s7 for many updates. This is absolutely very unprofessional of them.

[LineageOS Questions & Answers] CostasGr:

[LineageOS Questions & Answers] PRIYAJ:
Its very easy to get google assistant on your phone by following steps:-

1)download velvet zip file from google

2)use buildprop application and add 2 commands at the end ro.product.model=pixel XL and ro.opa.eligible_device=true

3)boot into any custom recovery and install the velvet.zip file

Now you are all good to go!!!!!!!!
[LineageOS Questions & Answers] copota:
Here's how I got it working on a JDCteam Lineage OS Nougat 14.1 ROM. I can't guarantee it will work, but give it a try, since you don't have to use any mods to get it working.

Note: You might not need to install the Google Now Launcher, so if you want, you can skip that. If The Assistant doesn't work, then try installing the Google Now launcher.

If you have Google Assistant and Google Now Launcher installed. Uninstall them, and reinstall both of them. If you want, clear their cache for good measure.

Now, set the Google Now Launcher as your default launcher, and launch a couple of apps. Then switch back to your preferred launcher. You can set the Google Now Launcher as your default launcher by going into System Settings > Apps > Tap the Gear Icon > under Home App (tap that to change the launcher). If the Google Now Launcher does not appear as a choice, then make sure you have it installed.

Next, open the Google Assistant by clicking its icon in the app drawer. Click the microphone icon in Google Assistants search box. This should prompt you to grant permissions for the microphone.

Next, in the Google Assistant app, tap the hamburger button (top left corner) and make sure your Google account appears. Now, tap Settings and tap the other settings that appears. This should open Google Assistants settings menu.

Exit the setting menu, and test Google Assistant with a voice command to see if it responds. Hopefully it works.

This is what got me working, but it's sometimes a bit buggy. For instance, sometimes after I say OK Google, the Google Assistant screen does not pop up, but it still accepts a voice command. If that happens, try these steps over again. Also, the Say "OK Google" any time setting is greyed out, and I can't get that setting to activate, though Google Assistant works when the screen is active.

Wasted an entire day flashing multiple gapps and Resurrection remix and AOSP official rom based on N.

Hi, spent an hour searching forums but no-one seems to have the same problem.

I installed schaps 4.30 with radio 1.48.00.10 which is fantastic in the uk, works with orange UK no problem.

Trouble is, I go to france a lot and for some reason the phone can't find Orange Fr, It's searches then 'No Service'

Should the phone automatically find and connect to european providers or do i need to add them with a file of some sort? and is this perculiar to Schaps rom or am I missing something?

Thanks in advance.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] jakubd:
I think that you just need to be sure you have roaming activated. And if you are sure roaming works check if you selected correct band (UMTS is not availbale away from big cities).
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] db77:
You can install Setup_Operators from Schap's :)

Setup_Operators won't fix lack of signal :)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] jonnobright:
I had a look earlier at setup_operators, seems like that's just the MMS/GPRS settings etc.

I thought about the roaming setting but couldn't find it. I'll have a search for it though.

My first assuption (being the mother of all f*** ups) was that I was missing some sort of carrier setting file ie: I could get a signal as field test showed one, but the OS didn't know what to do with it or who it belonged to.

Saying that though, I see a lot of french users of schaps rom and the have no problems so it must be something else *shug*
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] BBowermaster:
This would probably be a problem with the radio version, not the ROM.

Anyone reccomend a good radio for france?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Bergerac56:
When i go to france (what i do a lot too) i do not have any problem (roaming) on orange or other french networks. I use 1.47.00.10
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] mrvanx:
The 'roaming' setting is not related to the device dude, you need Orange to enable your SIM for roaming, hence agreeing with them that you can use it in a foreign network and that you will pay the charges related to that. SIM cards as a rule are NOT automatically enabled for roaming as far as i know.

You need to call Orange UK (to whome you pay the bill) and ask for roaming to be enabled on your device, the radio version or ROM has nothing to do with this. If roaming is enabled the device will find the first available network which will allow your SIM to register, you will also notice the roaming icon on the top bar (i THINK its a triangle???).
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] jakubd:
mrvanx: thank you for explaining him what is roaming. I don't have enough patience to explain GSM basics.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] jonnobright:
thanks.

My sim is already roaming enabled as i used it in my old phone without any problem abroad. Just not used xda's much so didn't know whether roaming could be locked out as maybe a security measure to prevent roaming charges in this rom version.

Sorry if you thought I was an idiot, But hey, I've got enough patience for the both of us (just not got hours to spare for seaching) :)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] jakubd:
There is one quick method to test your problem: Take your SIM out, and borrow a GSM phone (but without simlock) from anybody for 20 seconds and make a quick test.

I'm nearly sure that it's operator/roaming issue. Never heard of anti-roaming blocks on the phone level that refuse to show other networks.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] mrvanx:
hmm,

Perhaps its an imei issue, always worth checking with orange to see if they also check the imei of the device you use??
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] jonnobright:
thanks mrvanx, i'll give orange another call, it's gotta be something simple then.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] kevntrace:
Me too

I have suffered the exact same problem with 2 different ROMs. I use the Cingular 8525 version of TYTN in the US and I have been abroad twice over the last year to India and UK, with different ROMS loaded on each trip. On both occasions my phone could not find a signal.

I have a PAYG SIM from Orange for the UK which I previously used successfully with an Audiovox SMT5600 - but I have had no joy whatsoever with the 8525 with the Orange SIM or the Cingular SIM when outside the US. Would love to know if you ever figure this one out.

My only thought is that my phone is not unlocked? I did run an unlock app on it shortly after I first got the phone, but was not really able to test it - until I tried my Orange PAYG SIM in the UK.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] walshieau:
jonnobright,

check with the operator which your supposed to be roaming with about what bands they are using.

I've had the same problem with my Moto X Play since November 2016 and today the same problem continues ... I've changed the ROM many times since 2016, but the problem continues and turns into 15% and 30%.

I have Android N and TWRP 3 on my Moto X Play and I realized that the battery had power, because in TWRP it is possible to see it. I think this problem is not necessarily in battery, but "in something else" ... it's very strange ...

I have a question: how does Android know my battery? A file? Is a software inside it responsible for seeing my battery charge?

I think that is our problem.
