Sure did. Many times. Even tried a few registry tweaks to tweak it - nothing helped.

You must live / work in a fairly bright place. My TP2 senses '0' lumens in my living room unless I point it directly toward a lamp (or something bright), so PocketShield is no good for me (and many others, as I found through my forum searching).

Glad it works for you, but it doesn't work reliably for everyone depending on lighting conditions. Regardless; the proximity sensor idea would be even more reliable. After all, PocketShield doesn't help when you're trying to turn on your phone outside/in a car after dark.
