Trigger happy proximity sensor, broken volume control & other newbie questions

First you should give a desription of the OS  "you are talking about", there are quite a few different Distro's                                  And a choice of desktops  as well
Some of which are at very different stages of development. 
> What Operating System <>What desktop  I think KDE has a dark theme available., maybe some others do also.
>Mobian does dim the screen when you hold it to your head.
Also on Mobian the volume rockers do function, each push sends it about 5 notches in the desired direction.
Someday they may use a bar sliding across the top of the screen, for now you can see that movement if you open the sound page...
and watch the sliding bar..  Once you are familiar with the handset, you will know that you want to push the button 2 times or 4 times for the desired volume.             
  You will develop a feel for the phone, and the software is a work of art as it progresses..  For now the developers  are bringing it together,   "some polite input"   can help to put the pieces  where they  do To please the most people
A few months back those rocker switches actually did nothing.

If you walk into the kitchen and scream at the chief, then you will not be happy with what he made,

Firefox  and Epiphany  (Gnome web) and others are in Development NOW to fit the Pine phone screen, "Nicely"
