Did you know? Lock screen on Phone Call...

I am not sure if this has been touched on or not but did you know there was a proximity sensor in the android market, that will lock your screen during a phone call when held to your ear? I just recently learned this and figured I'd pass it along to those who were like me...very unaware.

It's call "Proximity Sensor" in the Android market...chk it out!!

Trying it now. I never trust the market reviews so many great apps get bad reviews, I almost wish they include the age of the of the people that are submitting them...

Do I have to have the "light sensitive brightness sensor" turned on? This app seems to automatically lock the screen no matter what.

WOrks great for me I am using the Sprint Hero...no I don't think you have to turn the light sensitive brightness off, but i did find that if you hit test first it will lock the screen automatically, so i just uninstalled and reinstalled clicked "Enable" NOT TEST and now it works great! got 3 phone calls today screened locked for all of them.

Oh also hide/ignore it from your taskmanagers...
