Huh...

What could possibily do that? Where is the sensor located? Is there a way to tweak the sensitivity?

Again, thanks.

i have a verizon tp2 and mine behaves exactly like the video. all tp2's have the proximity sensor. I have read a few times that thick or mirrored screen protectors interfere with the sensor. if you do an advanced search in thread titles, you will find 14 threads on this subject.

Well... duh!

After extensive research I've discovered that my aluminum case is covering the sensor.

Time to get out the Dremel.

mine reacts just like the video, but sometimes when the phone app is glitchy i can open the notification window. but will still react like the video.

so ive searched everywhere i can think of on here and xda and have seen a couple people with the same question as me with no solution so i thought id give it a try in this thread.

i have a sprint tp2 device but i unlocked it and am using it on ATT. installed nrgs leo rom and everything works great except receiving mms. the furthest i got to an answer is that i need to put att settings in the server settings. well i was just about done when i get to the "connect via" box. i need MEDIA NET but its not listed in the drop down list. im assuming this is because i have a cdma device. is there a way to add this in the registry to give me the option so i can hopefully get the mms working?

or if anyone knows of the solution for this problem please post it. i can send/recieve text, phone and get on the net and even send mms. just cant get them. not understanding why its only a one way thing. thanks!!

thanks for the link but its still not working..... i think your cab made the "media net" option available and everything works just the same as before. just still cant recieve mms. i dont understand this. someone PM'd me a couple nights ago noticing i was using an unlocked sprint tp2 on on att asked me how i got the mms working (assuming i did) unfortunately i had to tell him ive been searching for weeks with no luck. so if anybody has the answer to this or the know how to find a fix, that would be awesome because there are several of us out there that i know of that have this issue. thanks!
