LG3 screen will not turn on when i am ending a call

Hi
When i make a phonecall and takes the phone to the ear the screen turns off, like any other phone. But when i am finishing the call and removes the phone from my ear the screen wont turn on. It is really anoying and i often leave 2 min. blank voicemails because i cant end the call.

Do i have a faulty foto sensor or is it just the front camera?? Maybe it is a software problem??

This sounds like a proximity sensor issue in the top left corner of the phone.

Another issue might be the touch sensor gets screwed up and you have to swipe with three fingers across the screen to get it to clear.

I would recommend cleaning the top left corner of the phone as well as you can and/or doing a factory reset to freshen up the system.

There is a workaround for that, although it doesn't solve the problem itself.
Go into "settings" - "call" and check the box for "power key ends call". Then, obviously, pressing the power button will hang up the call.
