Use light sensor to turn screen off while on call

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

wouldnt that just make it duller, but not turn it off... its just so that when its dark it uses less battery life since it doesnt have to be as bright as it is during the day cause of the contrast

Mine works....well it dims the back light when I'm on a call during the daytime, turns it off when on a call at night. I'm using the stock sprint rom with the windows dialer skin(I know ugly, but faster). No hacks just works....didn't notice it when I had the HTC skin on there, but I wasn't paying attention until I read this thread.

As others have pointed out, I think that's the power settings of your phone.

If your lightsensor is turning off the call, the screen will go black after the phone has been up to your face for a couple of seconds.

My VZW TP does do that.

Yeah, that's just the issue, my light sensor doesn't work, but I want it to...

I was under the impression that the light sensor is susposed to turn off the screen when you're on a call so your cheeks don't end the call accidentally. This would happen to me with my mogul, and with the larger end call button on the TP I would imagine it would be much worse. This would be a real handy cool feature if I could get it to work...

lol wow

Well i have a Sprint Touch Pro and my screen turns off when i'm in a call. It has worked with the last couple of custom roms i've used, i even think it worked with the stock rom but it's been so long i can't remember lol. First i had Juggalo's but now i'm with Dreams rom and it works no problem.
