If the phone has a protective case, film, glass, remove it, and clean the proximity sensor.

Hi @Micky87,

Welcome to the community.

Does this only happen when you are on calls, or does it happen from anywhere?

Could you please test the phone in safe mode too?

Did you expose your phone to water recently? I think it can be a physical problem or shortage below the power button.

I think it's a problem of the proximity sensor
