Dial Pad Issues

I'm having issues with my dial pad when I use it to enter a code (like bank number codes or code to listen to voice mails). When I go to enter the code, the screen goes black and it won't allow me to enter the code unless I open the keypad.

No issues with dialing, just using it on an open line.

Thoughts?

usually when you're on a call, if you hold the phone as flat as you can, like parallel to the ground I found that will usually make the screen come back on, and then just press the button to open up the dial pad...

Just tried it. Helped a little but still having issues. May have to run it by the store tomorrow. Thank you!

Do you have a case on your phone? I remember a little while back that people with certain cases were having problems with their screen going black/waking up at times it shouldn't be during a call because the case they had on the phone was obstructing the sensor in the upper left corner.

no trip to the store required.. download and run an app called Screebl... it fixes this issue. (I know, I made a thread exactly like this one a few weeks back).

Yes! Screebl is pretty darn handy if you ask me!
