Proximity sensor issue resolved :)

Big daddy resolved it

You have to sacrifice resetting the phone using the Sony PC software 1st. Avoid data backup from old accounts.

Then, after the reboot is done and Android is reinstalled with update x.x.x.534 goto the dialer & type *#*#7378423#*#* then press dial

In the menu that will come go to calibration and then choose proximity sensor. (If you run the test it might give error = -1) Then, set settings to default and it may ask to reboot the device.

After reboot type *#*#7378423#*#* then press dial. In the menu that will come go to calibration and then choose proximity sensor do the test and it will show success. VIOLAAAaaaa!!!!

Check the phone...it works

Have tested this and the issue is resolved on my phone finally ....yippieeeeeee!!!

Clever!! Although I don't have this problem, but thanks for sharing!!

just for those who are too scared to try typing *#*#7378423#*#* on their dialer it actually takes you to the service menu meant for developers/service center agents. It's safe to use for this option and can be searched upon on net before use to be satisfied completely
