how to disable Proximity in voice call

[jason-shen]

Hi All

i wonder if Proximity can be disable for voice calls, as when the screen goes off, the socket get disconnected by ios, as ios kill background activity

any help would be great

thanks advance

Did you find any solution ?

I did by changing the native code, but hoping to have a better solution though, the thing is the screen goes off then my socket connection gets cut off, so that's the reason I need it to be disable, not sure if anyone else experience that, if so what's the solution to go around that

android u will have to do the same thing in the android native code, I haven't done android yet

you can use InCallManager.stopProximitySensor()

InCallManager.stopProximitySensor() seems not to stop the proximity sensor. Any suggestions?

I am using with expo in the managed flow, so not able to reach to the native code.

Edit: Tried this workaround:

setTimeout(() => {
	InCallManager.stopProximitySensor();
}, 10000);

Edit 2: Unfortunately the workaround is not working. Any comments?
