I was just on a call that the proximity sensor did not prevent me from muting the phone, then sending tones via the keypad, and all while holding it close to my ear. I can tell no particularly usable difference following the 4.1 update.

Does anyone have any experience with it improving with the update?.....or not?

Thanks,
john

Mine has been fixed as well.

Update to 4.1 did nothing to help my phone or my wife's phone. Gonna make a trip to the apple store and see what they say.....

I haven't updated the gf's phone yet and we both had the issue. I have been on 4.1GM for a while and it hasn't helped. Going to restore one more time this weekend and see if that fixes it. And update the gf's and see if it helps hers. Then if both of them are acting funky still, I can swap both. If hers is fine, we can leave hers be. Just won't have to make 2 trips.

@iMuggle,
What steps did you take to restore? My proximity sensor is better but still not fixed. I went through the phone settings = general = reset then restored from iTunes last night but haven't been on it that much today to test it out to see if the problem still exists.

Mine is working fine as of now. Only had the issue once prior to 4.1 though.

It didn't stop the proximity issue. Maybe a small band-aid
for a gigantic cut.

Mine is working fine both before and after the update. Hope it works out for you all!
