Resolves my HTC One Max's proximity sensor issue I love my phone, but it has one flaw: the screen comes on during calls while the phone is next to my face. When my cheek touches the screen, it can send me several layers deep into an app's settings, or better yet, mute the call. There's nothing quite like telling a colleague that my phone muted itself and that's why they can't hear me. My cell phone is my work phone, so this is really a problem. In any case, this app lets me control this misbehavior. So far I have left it set for the proximity sensor and it's working. If it misbehaves, I will try the light sensor. If you are having issues with your HTC One variant, try this! I upgraded to the pro because it's worth every penny.

Prefect Does every proximity sensor activity you could ever need. Does flip - cover style actions plus so much more. Much better than the free version.

it works on Sony T3 mobile It works fine on my new sony T3 mobile. sony mobile power button is small. you find it hard to push on off when you put case on it. This app helps me use sensor as alternative way to wake screen on.

I've bought pro version, but whenever my Samsung smartphone receives a normal call or Skype call, the skype/call screen pop up to show. I bought pro version to make the screen off all the time l, even when it receive a phone call or skype call. Not to mention the app is very unstable. Very Disapointed !
