Proximity Sensor issue worse after the update

I have the iphone 4 exchanged once and after seting the new one ( not from old back up) everithing seemed to be fine not perfect but fine ( 1 out of 10 calls would be an issue) but now after the update every call is an issue again ( pressing buttons with my face).
The exchange unit sensor was turning the screen off at about 1 3/4 to 2 inches, now after update is at about 1 inch again.
Anybody else has this issue?

Restoring it again to see if it helps.

  • Continued Proximity Sensor Issue After 4.1 Upgrade

    I was told by Apple Care and the Genius Bar that the proximity sensor issue was going to be resolved with the new 4.1 update. "This was after I exchanged the new IPhone 4 two times prior to the update. When the update arrived, it stated the items that would be resolved with the update which included the proximity sensor software fix. This update did not fix the issue and I exchanged my IPhone 4 for the third time with the same issue but slightly worse. Same issue exists with my cheek placing calls on hold, pressing numbers or even worst, placing them on speaker while having a private conversation. I have restored this phone and re-did everything from scratch and yet have the same issue. Is any one else having the same problems that I am facing, or have I just got four bad phones in a row? HELP.

    Since I know for fact, it's possible to have a phone without PS issues, I would go to the Apple store, and get a replacement, but I wouldn't leave the store until you're sure the new phone doesn't have the same PS problems. Maybe the Apple Gods were smiling on me, but both my phones were bought on launch day and neither have suffered. 4.1 didn't have a negative effect. And I know people who did have the problem, which 4.1 resolved. You should have a phone that works too.......

  • Those Who Got 'Reset All Settings' to Fix the Proximity Sensor Issue...

    I thought I would start a thread dedicated only to the steps that people took to get their proximity sensor issues resolved. So far, there are only scant posts lost deep in huge threads.
    For example, did you do a hard or soft reboot after you reset all of the settings? Did you make calls right away? Did you change all of your settings back first before making a call? Did you only change some settings before a call and then others after? Did you set up your visual voicemail right away? The reason why I am asking is perhaps there is a problem with a particular setting that we can narrow it down to...or maybe a certain combo of settings since resetting just the network settings seemed to work for some and not for others.
    Also, if it worked, was it only a temporary fix?
    Please post constructively. I have been following the threads for days, and I am well aware that this may be a hardware issue.

    On my fifth phone and am currently working with an apple engineer to help investigate the issue. The best thing I've done to help temporarily is to reset all settings. That seems to hold for 24 hours or so but the issue always returns.
    Hope you get something to work, but I'm fairly certain apple won't be able to do a firmware update to fix this or they would of already done so or at least mentioned it.
    Thanks! That's what I was beginning to think as well...and it's also what I was most afraid of...

  • Has 4.1 fixed the Proximity Sensor issue for you?

    At work, can't download 4.1 yet, but I'm eager to see if the Proximity Sensor issue will be fixed. This is my last straw, if 4.1 doesn't do it, I'm afraid I can't wait any longer. I need a phone..

    For those who are slow on the uptake what is the issue with the proximity sensor? I have noticed no issues with mine.
    We have three iP4s in our family and none are experiencing the Prox issue, but for those that do it is extremely frustrating. Proximity sensor system seems to fail and activate the keyboard at odd times allowing your face/ear to randomly press 'buttons' resulting in all sorts of weird behavior.
    Got it. Mine is fine so I guess I should be grateful. Apart from the signal issues my phone works perfectly. I hope this update doesn't screw my phone up.

  • Issues after the update from 2.5.7 to 2.5.16

    A number of issues have cropped up due to / during / after the update of the forums from 2.5.7 to 2.5.16 at the beginning of this week. This is a list of those issues as I have compiled them. It is a work in progress and I will update it when more information becomes available.
    1 Username and email problems for some users. (fixed 2009-12-03)
    Some users have a suffix appended to their username and their email address replaced with a random string (as a consequence email notifications don't work anymore). This problem is being worked on. Time to fix is unknown. Users experiencing this problem are requested to report so in this thread: My user handle and e-mail have been changed without my knowledge Please include your old username, which Adobe ID's you have and whether you used the same email address for those Adobe IDs.
    2 Some user preferences are lost when logging in. (fixed 2009-12-03)
    When you log in to the forums (either manually or automatially based on a "Remember me" cookie), some of your preferences are overwritten by their default values. The most noiceable prference is the settng to display your screen name (real name) that will get reset to displaying a username. This problem is being worked on. Time to fix is unknown.
    3 The Rich Text Editor (RTE) is inserting linebreaks.
    When typing a post the RTE will randomly insert linebreaks.
    Workaround: remove the linebreaks manually.
    4 Raw (FreeMarker?) code is inserted in some posts (through the RTE?).
    In some posts code appears that was not entered by the user. The code looks something like below (but there may be much more then just this one line):
    function(){return A.apply(null,[this].concat($A(arguments)))}
    Workaround: edit the post and remove the code.
    5 The logout button disappeared.
    The logout button is no longer visible.
    Workaround: How can I log out from the forums?
    6 Search is down on one node. (fixed 2009-12-03)
    Search is down on the SGAURWA41P cluster node. This does not show itself as an error, but instead as 0 search results.
    Workaround: restart all browser windows and you may end up on another cluster node or use Google with a "site:forums.adobe.com" search modifier.
    7 Users have 404 problems on first request.
    This is not really a new problem, but it is something that was supposed to be fixed with the update. The problem is caused by the forums inserting a jsessionid parameter in the wrong place in the URL.
    Workaround: reload the page where the incorrect link is located.
    8 Image upload through camera button doesn't always work. (fixed 2009-11-30)
    Some people have reported problems with uploading JPG and PNG images using the camera icon.
    Workaround: attach the images instead.
    Update 2009-11-28:
    A probable cause for the error [The content type of this image is not allowed.] when uploading images through the camera button has been identified. Internet Explorer uploads images using a Content-Type header that differs from the IANA registered type for jpg and png images. As such, the recommended workaround for people wanting to upload images using the camera icon is to use a browser that is not Internet Explorer.

    Re issue 4, "Raw (FreeMarker?) code is inserted in some posts (through the RTE?)", the suggested workaround is:
    Workaround: edit the post and remove the code.
    With my IE 8, the workaround never works.  See this test post for an example:

  • Proximity Sensor Issue, But It's Not The Proximity Sensor...

    So, has anyone had issues with apps that use the proximity sensor (like this one, for example: http://appshopper.com/utilities/touch-lcd-designer-speaking-clock)?
    I noticed, the bright light of the sun seems to be messing it up, and was wondering if anyone else was having proximity sensor issues, without it actually being the proximity sensor (where it seems to think something is in front of it, when it is not).
    When you watch the videos, please put your volume on mute, as there are outside, natural sounds and white noise, that will make you go deaf, if you have the volume on loud. The first video needs the sound on, but low.

    after the update, my time, name, etc - all disappeared from the right upper finder bar.  Anyone else have this issue?

    First, make sure they are all still enabled in the respective System Preferences.
    If the are, then do you have any third-party menu extras? They will often interfere with the others if they are not compatible.

  • Terrible iOS 8! It is even worse after the 8.0.2 update.

    iOS 8 runs terribly on iPhone 4S.
    And it is even worse after I updated it to 8.0.2.
    The icon of Calendar App is fail to display.
    Calculator App is completely crashed.
    UI of phone is totally gone. Once I make a call, the screen shows black, and it makes me cannot hang up the phone!
    Apps keep crashing randomly.
    Disappointing! iPhone 4 created the world of iPhone. Now iOS 8 and iPhone 6 are destroying everything!

    My 1Password program no longer is syncing after the update and I cannot read rft files in DropBox created with Text Edit.

    I agree with @darp   I haven't been able to recreate your issue, it could be that an app it's creating this issue, @SomeQuickAdvice boot on safe mode and run diagnostics again or repair your phone with PCC

  • Why can I not disable the guest user in the 10.8.2 update? I have never enabled the guest user, but after the update, it was automatically enabled with a "managed" tag. It is not selectable even after entering my admin password to unlock the options.

    Why can I not disable the guest user in the 10.8.2 update? I have never enabled the guest user, but after the update, it was automatically enabled with a "managed" tag. It is not selectable even after entering my admin password to unlock the options. I was able to select the account under "parental controls", but again, could not delete it. Why Apple? Why?!!????

    SOLVED Ok. I actually was able to disable it. I had to actually log in as the guest user to make it accessible in the preference window. Then I disabled it and logged out. Apologies if this was obvious for some people, but I have had some sort of issue with something every update since Snow Leopard.

    Dear Apple friends,
    I have the exact same problem with some apps.
    Even when I try some websites in Safari and Chrome that require loading big chunks of data they crash.
    Today it crashed in two new places. In the notification center and when I opened newstand app I no longer was able to return to the main window and the dock disappeared.
    I have my ipad retina for about three months now but latelly this issue has became more frequent. What should I do?
    Should I update to the latest firmware and do what raymond73 said?
    Is there a fix for this issue?
    Has Apple said anything about this? Because I see that this issue is happening to a lot of people.
    Is it possible to downgrade to iOS 6?
    Is it a firmware problem? That can be fixed in future releases? Or an hardware issue?
    Should I wait or go to the place I bought it and try to get the money back?
