Screen turns on during calls - OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers

So I just got my midnight black oneplus 3T. Love the phone, battery life everything. However, during calls, mainly on 7.1.1 my screen turns on and I press buttons with my face by accident, it's seriously annoying and because of it I've had the phone in a box for the past 5 days. I currently have an iPhone 7 plus and I reeeallly want to give the phone a chance but this is seriously annoying!
Does anyone have any tips for me at all?
Cheers

Are you keeping the top part of phone a bit away? Maybe that could be the reason or simply the proximity sensor is faulty. You could try a reset and if the problem is still there get it checked form OnePlus.

I have this bug too on 7.1.1/4.1.3. Proximity sensor is tested to be working.
I read somewhere that it's a bug in the oneplus dialer, and sideloading the goggle pixel dialer fixes the issue, but I could not test it with the Magisk module, because I ran into a different bug, and lost networking until I reinstalled Magisk from scratch...
Try it at your own risk.

Definitely not keeping the phone away from my face at all. Another user said its a software bug. I might just have to try lineage OS for a bit.
Thanks for the tip! ^_^

It happens to me, too.

[APP] S2W Phone Call Disabler

S2W Phone Call Disabler
If you have sweep2wake enabled, you may notice the touchscreen is active while the screen is blanked during phone calls. This app will disable sweep2wake and doubletap2wake during phone calls and re-enable them with your previous settings after the call is finished. I couldn't find a way to do it reliably in the kernel, so I made this companion app. It will work with any Nexus 6 kernel that has sweep2wake.
It requires no configuration, just install it, and run it once. After that, it will automatically work, even after rebooting.
There is one option in the app. Since this app only needs to be opened once, you can click a check box that will remove this app from your app drawer. If you change your mind and want it back in the app drawer, you will have to uninstall and reinstall the app.
This app shouldn't use many resources. It runs an intent service when the phone state changes. That means the app wakes up, does its thing, and then stops itself. In other words, it is not always running in the background.
This app requires root!
Download:
S2WPhoneCallDisabler.apk

Many thanks to those who have donated!
Thanks wanted to run your kernel but kept having issues in call.
My so glad to be able to run your kernel been with Vzw m8 for last year... an this app has worked great for me all day. An also I just wanted to throw out I'm on .24 an having zero call issues
3rd!
Works great thanks man
This issue bugs the crap out of me. I'm testing now. Thanks flar.
Nexus 6
I assume it's working good for everyone?
Working good for me I think I've had maybe 1 or 2 instances where the wake gestures didn't turn back on after a phone call, but it was probably just a fluke.

Keep an eye on that and try to remember the exact sequence of events where it's not coming back. I don't talk on the phone much so it doesn't get much real world testing.

You have no idea. This app is pure genius.
Nexus 6
Not sure why but my copy doesn't have the option yo hide from the app drawer.
Great idea for this app, I'm surprised that there isn't greater call for it, or maybe I'm alone in having major screen issues when in a call with 2t2w enabled.
My issue is that it never turns double tap back on after a call. I'm using LK with it set up through lkconfig. Anyone know a solution to this? Thanks

In fact I've experienced the same once or twice with ElementalX Kernel. I'm going to observe if it is happening again on my next call.
Edit: Tried it twice, no problems, so false Alarm. Everything working as it should be!
Thanks for the app, Flar2! I wrote a guide for this on my website (here), and also made a video tutorial:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bHjN6jUdgzs
Feel free to use either, and thanks again for the great work!

Great!
Works perfectly, and removed from the app drawer. Screen is completely unresponsive (as it should be) when on a call with the prox sensor covered.
Thanks for this!
Hey @flar2 ... I think I may have found a sequence that keeps disabling dt2w and s2w. It seems if I get a call and swipe to ignore the call within a second or two that it's disabling those two features, they only come back on after I re-enable them in your ElementalX app.

ZTE Axon Proximity Sensor bug

Hi guys
Just bought Axon and first thing I found is that proximity sensor doesn't do its work well at least on my phone. When I am on call holding my phone by ear the screen is till on unless I turned it on pushing power button. Does anybody has the same issue, is this a software bug which can be fixed with future updated?
My device was working great but recently developed this bug. I noticed it after my last playstore update to 6.0.0. Device also doesn't seem to sleep anymore so my battery life fell off a cliff. Going to try a factory reset.

My bug has gone but light sensor is not working well in most cases I have to adjust it manually. I got the same version of Google play as you do. To maintain proper battery life try to install cm cleaner or something similar.
Thanks for the battery saving tip will check it out. Unfortunately for me factory reset changed nothing annoying as hell having to manually turn off the screen for all calls.

I have the mini and I too have the proximity issue. Really annoying.

LG better fixes these issues in the Marshmallow build, or I am saying godbye to LG...

Touchscreen Issue: This thing has been persistent from the very beginning. After struggling for months, it has been mostly fixed with the last update. But double tap to wake is still a 50/50 chance, most of the time it's 4 taps to wake.
WiFi Issue: I have come across may complaint across internet about wifi issue for LG G4, ppl suggested several solutions but none really worked. Wifi connection suddenly drops, and also takes a considerable amount of time when waking up from sleep. It gets very annoying when I am on a voip or hangout call.
No it's not my router or my phone. Because it's the same on my home and work network, where other devices just work fine. Also I don't have any of those issues on CM12.1 rom. CM is quite nice on LG G4 but having to be using it on CM is not an option, as I lose the camera.
Besides I didn't pay the money to purchase a flagship device to use it on a different rom.
So, that's it. LG better fixes it on the Marshmallow, otherwise Good Bye LG.
Update: The WiFi is much better since I uninstalled Xposed. I am guessing that some xposed module had something to do with it. Can anybody confirm?
No change in the double tap to unlock though. Funny thing is that it works perfectly with CM.
Sorry to hear you are still having issues with your device. My only issue is the double tap to wake/sleep, but its something that I can live with. I never had an issue with wifi on any network, work/home/neighbors, ever.
Have you tried any of the roms supplied by our great devs or are you on stock?

I tried stock rooted debloated, also stock-based xtreme rom. Always having these issues.
Hmm..... Thats weird, My G4 has been runing good since I first purchased it in september..... Guess I got lucky.
I feel the ops pain, because I've had the WiFi issues a few times, and the tap to wake is 50/50 at best. I'm also growing tired of waiting for updates from LG or Tmo.
The poor 5GHz wifi support kills me. Only device in the household that has that issue. Other than that, though, I've been pretty happy with the G4.
I purchased my G4 a month ago and don't have those issues. Double tap works fine and my phone uses 5g WiFi at home. I wish you luck op.
As far as the WiFi is concerned, I have the same problem. Using WiFI Analyzer, I can see that all available wireless networks near me drop to 0 every minute or so, and then start back up. My wife also has a G4, and her device does not do that. I'm wondering if there was either a bad batch of WiFi radio chips, or poor connections to the mainboard for a group of these.
I think the tap to wake issue is because of that other stupid "feature" that I'm sure not a single person uses.
You know the one where when the screen is off, you swipe down from the top of the screen and it shows the clock? My phone often mistakes my taps to wake as swipes and tries to activate that instead (I can tell because the notification led comes on when that is activated).
Is there any way to turn that thing off? It is completely useless. It would be one thing if it showed the notifications but no it just shows the clock

I agree with you on... that is probably the case. A completely useless feature, which also doesn't work half the time.

Not sure if you seen in the g4 dev section there is a flashable zip for a camera now. I'll never go back stock.

Did you just root, or are you using other apps that uses root access? Did you uninstall or delete any system app?
It's very unlikely that rooting would break the camera. Try unrooting.. Super Su has the option to unroot in its settings. If doesn't work you may have to do a factory reset.

I rooted and installed wtrp, the first app I opened was snapchat and I was not able to open video snaps or make my own. I thought it was the app being supervised and I didn't check the camera app recording. I later installed apps for root like xposed installer to obtain snapprefs, but the problem continued to appear. After the download of a few apps and mods for root. I downloaded instagram and I was still not able to record videos. Finally I opened the camera and it was the same problem. I unrooted my phone and the video recording is working. I will root again and only test the camera app after root and after each app and mod I added before. I did try the factory reset and no luck.

Since you already got twrp up and running, I can try MicroMod777's stock rooted debloated rom.
Never had problems with my H811 even installed different ROMs from LP to MM and back. Never had hardware issues.
My only problem with the h811 is the stupid gps not shutting off and killing the battery, fixed by app ops
I'm stock everything and my notifications have basically just stopped working out of no where. I've tried every solution there is on the web to fix it except a factory reset - is this what it comes down to? Do I have to factory reset every few months just to keep the phone running normally? That's not really ideal.

Lag When I Unlock The Phone

Hello after i updated my phone to oreo it lags sometimes. I assume that it is kind of a Glance problem cause when i turn off glance there is no lag at all(pretty strange i know). I contacted support about this 2 times and they said restart the phone and clear the chace of the app that causes the issue. Neither of them work. Does anyone else facing this issue?

The only lag I have is with the fingerprint senzor. If I doubletap the screen and then I press the fingerprint, it unlocks instantly. If I press the fingerprint with the screen off, it takes a while before the screens turns on (~1.5sec). Maybe this is how it is on the Nokia 8, but on the HTC 10 was lightning fast.
I will reset the phone if the problem presist s i will send the phone to service

Had a 10 as well as don't really notice that much difference. What I will say is that battery performance trounces the 10 so I'd imagine it's pulling the Nokia from deep sleep that causes the minor lag.
always restart wherever it lags. it lags with the amount of oreo update.
Did you tryed a factory reset? I did it and it is more responsive then before. But safe needed data first. Backup before factory reset!

I think it is so the phone isnt getting false attempts to unlock it, only my opinion though, i am not saying that is deffo the reason.
I just have the same problems with my Nokia 8 since 2 days.
Fingerprint or power-button unlock is sometimes painfully slow. Maybe up to 5 seconds.
I have the Android 8.1 Oreo update installed since some months already and also the newest security patch.
I have read, it's a general problem of the 8.1 version, that unlocking gets slowed down.
Anyone has a solution so far? Factory reset doesn't seem to help always (I didnt try), but maybe downgrading to Android 8?

No, this didn't work for me at all.
I think it's related to deep sleep / doze feature. Try to restore factory settings and wipe clean data + cache of the phone and see if it will help. There's so many things that can cause this that we're not able to help any of you.

Thanks, I know, but that also didn't help me. Currently I am following this bug report at Google:
https://issuetracker.google.com/issues/109710373
It seems to be an issue witht he June Android Security Patch... a lot of Pixels are having the same problem.
I don't thinks it's the June 2018 update problem. If u look at the dates on this thread, the problem started after the oreo 8.0 update back in November 2017. Hopefully it'll be fixed in the android 9 update coming soon. I updated straight to 8.1 after unboxing so I don't know if this problem was around during nougat
Same here
I have the same error.

Official Oreo - Haptic feedback bug

I installed Oreo update and noticed that sometimes I get double vibrate feedback when pressing the capacitive buttons, home button or keyboard.
I also noticed that the vibration intensity is not kept and it becomes increasingly stronger.
I tried resetting (delete everything including storage) and sideloading oreo without recovering from cloud to exclude any apps interfering. Still as soon as I finish the welcome configuration steps I encounter this problem.
Because on the official Oreo topic everyone is keen on discussing installation problems (even though everyone is just repeating the same things) I thought to open a separate topic.
I'm having the same issue as well
Me too.
Issue exists since leaked beta 2, was never fixed. This release is basically a reskinned beta...
That's kind of disappointing
Same for me!
please raport to oneplus that we get it fixed!!
I also have it but it doesn't bother me. :/

I also tried that and can not determine the error.
