firstly, congrats on V6!! it's the fastest moving thread evah

now, just to share with ya all..my friend's 5800 keep having problem with the screen shutting off right at the instant a call is made or received.

the weird thing is, we both bought it on same day, same screen protector (doesn't precut the sensor) and he sent to NCC few times to check on it but still happens. Today, we both tested on a theory that this happens on very bright environment, (etc warm Sunlight) .

We both whipped out our phone and started dialing the same number, right at that instant, his screen shut off. Why not mine?

All these all..we thought screen protectors were the cause but based on this theory...i'm suspecting there is a batch of nokia 5800 with proximity sensor defect!

Maybe all these while we don't even need an SP that pre cuts the sensor. It's caused by an oversensitive hardware that might not have been tweaked properly before going into assembly.
just my thoughts

yes it is normal...maybe your SP is not thick enough cause a lot of other ppls 5800 turns off if there is a "good" quality SP on the screen

yup...total 50...i asked that clareen and she said there is no SP for 5800

or a smudgy screen protector...it happened on my 5800...i had to cut it...i don't think its the sensor's fault as it is doing its job perfectly fine...its just us users which decided that the screen needed an SP

This is based on the theory that the sensor detects light, and if too bright, it might get reflected by the SP and confuses the phone thinking something is infront of it.

now only left is rm4 SP from kit kit.. hope he got ready stock,will consider martin SP also.

Just checked muh sensor... It's fine...

Will add the issue to frontpage if someone else can confirm that SOME more 5800s has got the over-sensitive Prox Sensor...
