screen blinking during and after call

[gandalf]

Hi all

When making (or receiving) a phone call there's a high chance that the screen starts flashing on and off. This won't stop even after the call ends and I either have to restart unity or the phone to get the screen back to normal. pressing the power button for wake-up / send to sleep doesn't works only to get me to the pin screen if at all.

Is that a known issues and is there as solution?

thanks

@gandalf I don't have a Fairphone, but this has never happened on any of my devices. It will most likely be down to the proximity sensor.

I experience the same with my fp3+. And also I had this with my bq e5. It can be related to the proximity sensor being troubled by automatic brightness. But I am not sure and need to check that.

@redxxiii and @gandalf

If you turn off automatic brightness, this issue gets solved.
There is currently no effort put into resolving this issue.

@luksus Thanks for the info, that's good to know.

@luksus I do like auto brightness the bug is not always present. When its the case I fight with the device to switch off the screen
