I know that if I don't use the Verizon dialer skin, it doesn't work.

I used Advanced Config, but it still didnt work, does not automatically shut off when phone is placed close to face while on a call.

Re: Use light sensor to turn screen off while on call

it is supposed to turn off while against your face, then turn back on when you take it away from your face.

Seems like one of those options that sprint may have messed up. Does anyone know a fix for this?

Re: Use light sensor to turn screen off while on call

yeah, I'm in the same boat here. Never have seen this happen for my phone, either. Would love it to, though!

The checkbox for "Auto adjust backlight" must be enabled in your Power settings.
