Many repair technicians focus only on fitting the new screen when doing replacements.

A tiny, easy-overlooked part — the proximity sensor bracket — is often rushed or fitted out of position.


This small misalignment creates a chain of frustrating faults.The sensor cannot read distance normally.

Common symptoms you will meet:

  • Screen stays lit during calls and does not turn off against your face

  • Random pocket dials when the phone is in trousers or bags

  • Auto-brightness acts erratically, flickering or failing to adjust

These complaints usually come back days after repair.That means extra rework, bad customer reviews and wasted labour time.


The fix is simple: always check and correctly seat the sensor bracket before locking down the screen.Do not skip this alignment step to save a few

seconds.
