Anyone experience this same problem. Since taking the latest iOS update, when I am in an iMessage or Text message, with the whole convo showing on the screen. If my finger covers or blocks the camera on the screen (not the back camera with flash), my screen goes black. As soon as I remove my finger it stays black. If I keep it there for 10 seconds it stays black. I cannot seem to find this problem anywhere else.
iPhone 5s, iOS 7.1
My 6 is doing this too. Just started today. It's a new phone, just got it as a replacement this week. It's running the latest OS. Screen goes black anytime my hand is near the sensor that must be near the front camera and speaker at the top of the phone. There's no option to turn off "raise to wake" that was recommended above.
Any solutions?
My iPhone 6 Plus just started doing the same thing. Any suggestions?
My iPhone 6 plus started doing this as well.
I have no access to raise to wake option anymore.
This really is stupid behavior
Thank you this really helped solve my issue ( reset all settings)
I just had the same problem. All I did was restart my phone and now my lock page works and when I cover the camera it does not become black.
Screen goes black when in iMessage/Text when covering camera
