HTC Desire Proximity Sensor Update
March 6th, 2011After writing about this problem and seeing that the fix I thought worked didn’t really, I decided to return my Desire to 3 Denmark to be fixed.
It could well be that I could have fixed it myself but since the phone was under warranty I didn’t see the point.
It could take up to three weeks to fix but at least they lent me a phone to use in the meantime. It’s a Sony Xperia X8 mini and takes a bit of getting used to after using my Desire. Typing on a 2.6″ screen was very difficult but installing the Swype beta made life much better. I also did them a favour by upgrading the phone to Android 2.1 since it came with Android 1.6 installed.
At least I got to test my own App on the phone running 1.6 and it worked perfectly.
