Proximity sensor is oversensitive (was "Screen blanks when making call")
#7
Disabling the proximity sensor by adding "blacklist stk3310" (without quotes) to a file like /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf fixed the issue. I will also have a look to change the sensitivity of the proximity sensor but I am not sure I need it since I always use the loudspeaker for phone calls and without loudspeaker the sound is very low (https://www.reddit.com/r/pinephone/comme...l_quality/). If we don't use the proximity sensor, we can lock the screen manually during a call to save battery.
My previous smartphone (Jolla) had a screen protector with a hole for the proximity sensor, it would have been a good idea to have a screen protector like that for the PinePhone also.
I also had many other issues with voice calls: https://forum.pine64.org/showthread.php?...#pid122436
