Can you disable the proximity sensor, Moto X?

Is there a way do do this? I know there are factory codes you can type in on other Motorola phones that will allow you to do this.

"Look for Version 2.0 or higher of Proximity Sensor and Screen by Steven Stanley Bayes.

Does not require neither root access nor any third party frames nor products. Tested with MotoE XT1023. Should work with all or most Android devices.

Go to Google Play Store with your device. Click "" APPS "". Click the magnifying glass of

PLEASE, NOTE : MUST BE TYPED EXACTLY AS SHOWN, EXACTLY AT THE "" APPS "" TAB OF GOOGLE

PLAY STORE, BECAUSE THE SEARCH ENGINE OF GOOGLE PLAY STORE IS VERY SENSITIVE.

Click on the displayed app with the same name and author to download and install. The

application is also available in many other app stores and online which may or may not

show after a general purpose search with google.com and a web browser but some forums

where the links are posted may show.

READ THE INFORMATION INSIDE THE APPLICATION FIRST."

"What if I told you all you need is some duct tape and tape the sensor then he in your call wait awhile your screen will turn off at first then hit the power button once then there you go! You're free. And all you need is duct tape or some other sticky non-see through material.

If you don't know where the sensors are they should be that 2 unoticable dots on your phone to the left. (First Gen Moto X)"

Is the piece of rubber that has around the proximity sensor, try it may work for you

I had the same problem. My screen broke so i have been trying to replace. The glass on the proximity sensor fell off and then the it stopped working. So i thought that the proximity sensor was dirty or broken and it wouldnt work. So i found out that the problem was because of the rubber plastic that surrounded the proximity sensor. So i cut a rubber piece of a ear plugs and cut a tiny little hole around it to place it right around the sensor. And immediately it startes to work. It was a very thin slice of rubber. I use the ear pieces of rubber of one that i wasnt using it and it worked.
