Apple Spokeswoman: No Fix for Proximity Sensor Issues Patched to iOS 4.1

When the iPhone 4 was launched, there were a series of issues. First, and the most important is antenna issues when you hold the iPhone, but also iPhone 4 owners complained of a proximity sensor issues that results hanging up of calls or mysterious button presses that would mute or invite another person into the call. There were some reports that proximity sensor issues will be fixed in the final iOS 4.1 release which expected next week.

Steve Jobs last month said the sensor problem would be fixed in a future software update, but this hasn’t yet appeared. Apple Australia spokeswoman Fiona Martin has acknowledged that the company has yet fix the proximity sensor issue, but iPhone 4 users will be surprised when they download the update, only to find the issues are still there.
