Bug Description

During a call, position the phone such that the proximity sensor is not enabled, i.e. put phone on table
The screen shuts off
In order to wake the phone up user needs to push power button
* Screen should turn on when the phone is moved
The greeter is also shown
* Greeter should never be shown during an active call

-------------------------------------------------------

Nor the any other lock screens

See description below:
Steps to reproduce:

1. set up a passcode/passphrase on device
2. lock device or wait until it locks automatically
3. call device
4. accept call
5. wait until device locks screen (timeout) or lock manually via hard key button
6. unlock device

Actual result:
The Greeter is shown and has to be moved out of the way and then user has to unlock device via the passcode/passphrase screen.

Expected result:
The device should not time out/lock on an active call. Even if the device locked manually (via hard key button) and unlocked again, user should be presented with the active call screen.
If user tries to access contacts, add someone to the call or start a 2nd call or access settings, the passcode/passphrase screen should be presented to unlock device & user will be redirected to the correct action/function.

So I'm working on the 'greeter showing during call' aspect. As for the 'screen should turn on when phone is moved' bit, is that (A) what other phone OSes do or (B) what design wants or (C) both? I haven't seen a spec that would cover situations like this. Do we have one?

This is based on others (Android, iOS) which turn the screen on when there is motion or the screen is touched

OK. Well, I'd like to track those two requests separately. I'll open a new bug for the "wake on move" request.
