Proximity Sensor Problems

**androboi2010** · 03-03-2013, 06:51 PM

I have an ATT Pantech Flex. Naturally, I wanted a screen protector, so I bought a mirror one. The first phone call I got after applying the screen protector, my screen wouldn't come back on until the other person hung up the phone. This continued to happen every phone call I got. I figured out the mirror screen protector was blocking my proximity sensors. However on my phone, I don't know where the sensors are so I couldn't cut the screen protector to uncover them. Does anyone know where I can get a mirror screen protector with a hole for the proximity sensor or does anyone know the location of the proximity sensors?

The proximity sensors are located near the top of the device where the earpiece is. For your particular phone it would be best to pay the extra money to get the screen protector made FOR that phone.
