White Iphone 4 Delayed Due To Proximity Sensor

There are many rumors for the delay for White iPhone 4 to be available. Now, the information is coming that the cause behind White iPhone 4 is due to malfunctioning of its proximity sensor. The proximity sensor of White iPhone 4 was able to transmit signal but was not able to receive them properly. It is being fixed now and White iPhone 4 is anticipated to be available by year end before Christmas. The story goes like this. Initially, the White iPhone 4 didn’t allow infrared sensor to transmit and receive signal properly. So, designers decided to apply small holes on top of iPhone 4, just above the speaker. Soon it was realized that the holes can be seen clearly from the sensor and they decided to apply a metallic film which reproduced the same color of the edges of the iPhone. In initial testing it was discovered that this film which is opaque from front and metallic from back can transmit signal properly. But it was bit late when they discovered that there was problem in receiving signals which led to proximity sensor malfunctioning and the production has to be postponed to a later date. It is also being informed that the engineers have found the solution and tested successfully by keeping the back of the film opaque and front is formed by many small metal dots which allow sending and receiving signals correctly. Here is a video showing the first cover mounted on an original white iPhone 4, to make you understand where this film is positioned and how to possibly remove in case of problems. Earlier there have been many causes behind White iPhone 4 including, the antennagate issue, and screen color issue. However, still there is confirmation of reason behind the delay until Apple itself announces the causes by themselves. But we are relying that Apple will stay on his words this time and we will receive White iPhone 4 by year end.
