EDIT: note that i still recommend replacing your screen, and making it so that replacing your screen AGAIN is easy
Hello All

I broke my N9 screen and I had to replace the LCD recently from a local market. After this, my proximity sensor is not working. On accepting incoming call requests, the display goes off and am unable to perform any operation. Infact I cannot end my call too and I am forced to wait until the the person at the other end ends the call to get my display back

I tried using the command shared by wolke but it doesnt help too
On entering as root user, I did the following
#pwd
/root
#echo 0 > /sys/devices/platform/i2c_omap.2/i2c-2/2-0039/prox_enable
#

Hope this is fine. Wondering why no changes are noticed after this.
Somebody please help me with this.
Many thanks in advance.
