Since iv got this phone i noticed when my ringer goes off for a call the screen stays black sometimes for a sec or 2 and other times alot longer before it displays my caller. This was out of box and since then i have changed the kernal and it still does this anyone else have this issue or could it just be my phone?

cool so it's not the rooted kernel I put on the phone! HA HA
i notice this happens when the screen has timed out... the phone will ring, flash the picture for a nanosecond and then black...

it always does that when i pick up my phone. it turns off the screen and i cant answer. if u slide open the keyboard it should turn the screen back on though

What it seems like to me is the proximity sensor. I have noticed if it is ringing and I cover the sensor with my hand trying to hit the answer button it will turn the screen off.
