Depends on what you're planning to do during recovery mode. But if its accessed, there's an option for a factory reset and wipe cache partition.

did factory reset and still having the problem.
once i make a call, the screen automatically turns black and i need to press the home button in order to turn the screen on.
tried to put the device near my face but it won't make a call too.

Try do *#0*# from your dialer and check your sensor (proximity sensor). See whether it features functioning.
(Hover your hand over the sensor and the screen will change colour)

If not functioning... Send the phone to service centre.
*
the screen remains green color. no changes.

Have you navigated to the Settings > Calls and unchecked on the Turn off Screen during calls option?
*
normally if you didn't put the device near your face, the screen will still on eh

Only if you uncheck that option. Mine's checked and the screen will turn off during calls. hmm.gif
*
erm, in my case is like you can't click on the end call button unless you press the home button first.
it is so annoying when you trying to end the call asap but you still need to press the home button.
sorry for the bad explanation.

Meaning your proximity sensor is working.
Try disable and enable  your auto screen off during calls as UserU said.
*
but it won't direct call when i put my device near my face.

Of coz it won't make direct call. You still need to send the calling.
Unless you enable your Direct call motion sensor.
Setting > motion >enable Direct call
*
yeah i did enabled the direct call motion sensor but it doesn't work.

* when I pressed in the direct call, there is a tutorial to teach us how to use it one right? even there also not working

There's a setting for direct call tutorial. Look at the advanced setting and tutorial. (At the bottom part of the motion section). Then use learn about motions.

yeah thats what i meant just now. i tried the tutorial, it asked me to move the device nearer to my face but it doesn't work man.

the direct call only works if you are displaying the contact from your logs, favourites or contacts tab. it wont work if you try from keypad tab.
