It seems that most of our proximity drivers have only close/far and not the full ir reflectance value that would be needed for obtaining a better distance indication. That said, the driver could possibly be changed to toggle at a closer or greater distance.
But to me, this seems like it is some undefined behavior related to #1543948 Sadly, I do not have an arale to test. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to unity-system-compositor in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1560398 Title: Proximity sensor during call doesn't allow dialing options Status in Canonical System Image: Incomplete Status in unity-system-compositor package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: I'm not sure if this is a duplicate of any of the proximity bugs already reported (https://bugs.launchpad.net/canonical-devices-system- image/+bug/1512100, https://bugs.launchpad.net/canonical-devices- system-image/+bug/1493574, https://bugs.launchpad.net/canonical- devices-system-image/+bug/1524648, https://bugs.launchpad.net /canonical-devices-system-image/+bug/1523308 to name a few). On arale, rc-proposed I made a call, but at a certain point I needed to choose an option on an IVR. When I took the phone off my ear, the screen would indeed wake up, but when I wanted to press a key number (after some trouble to bring up the keyboard altogether) I wouldn't be able because the screen would turn off. Eventually I managed to "trick" the phone being quick, but it took me some time. Hanging up was somehow less painful. Maybe a matter of adjusting the distance from which the screen turns off during calls?
