Help. My Nokia 808 PureView Proximity sensor problem.

[ Edited ]

Hello. I just wanted to ask if my problem with the proximity sensor on my brand new Nokia 808 PureView not locking my phone when in a call even if my ear or my finger blocks the sensor is a Firmware/Software-related or a Hardware-related problem? It's not a big issue but i just wanted to know.

PS: It has no screen protector covering the sensor.

 

Please I need your expert advice. So that if it's really a hardware-related I can send it to the Nokia Care Center. And if its a software/firmware-related then I'll just wait for the update.
And thank you for having the time reading my post/query and answering.

 

OS: Nokia Belle FP2
Software version: 113.010.1507

You are not alone reporting this issue although mine running 113.010.1508 is not so affected:http://discussions.nokia.com/t5/Nseries-and-Symbian-Smartphones/Proximity-sensor-function-removed-fr...

If I've helped in any way, a click upon the white kudos star would always be appreciated.
