Sony XZ1 proximity sensor way too reactive. Loudspeaker could be louder :)

Hi,

When I try to swipe screen from top for settings while on a call that is on loudspeaker, the proximity sensor kicks off turning screen off when my finger is about 1 inch above.

That is way to reactive, please sort this out as it is completely annoying, almost has a will of its own!

It should not even be active when my call is on loudspeaker. 

Also calls on loudspeaker - volume is rather low. Any chance this can be resolved on a software level?

Thank you

Correction - when loudspeaker is selected, the proximity does stop as it should.

But in order to get the call on loudspeaker, it will be very odd and buggy to pulldown the menu with the call and select loudspeaker. The proximity gets activated screen turns off then on again, needs a few attempts.

As I said, way way too reactive from a distance of 1 inch which is too much! Simply placing finger at a distance above top area, without touching phone makes it blackout then come back again - seems like software bug to me
