[Q] Over sensitive proximity sensor

[webdiddy]

So the proximity sensor on my Z3 is screwed up. I only need to put my hand about 5cm (2") over the sensor and the screen shuts off when unlocket.
Any help would be appreciated!

Proximity works only during the call.
Anyother behavior is not normal, and also 5cm is maybe little much, but also mine register 3-4cm.

So for some strange reason my proximity sensor is active all the time, any fix for this?

Connect it to pcc and use repair solution. That is simplest thing to try.

Okay, I solved it, it was actually an app that had gotten permission to access the senor, after removing permission from the app everything is back to normal, phew!

Which app was it? How did you find it? I also have this problem.
