Dialer Shield is a new tweak released in Cydia that helps users avoid pressing buttons on the screen during phone calls. Before the release of iOS 4.1, many iPhone 4 terminals had problems with the proximity sensor and many users complained that they pressed the buttons on the screen with their face during phone calls. Then various tweaks appeared that blocked the screen during phone calls, but in the meantime the problems were solved by calibrations made in iOS. Now it seems that some developers still think that such tweaks are needed, so Dialer Shield was released today.
Dialer Shield blocks the screen during a phone call and displays 2 sliders at the bottom that provide access to the buttons on the screen or close the call. Such a tweak would have been useful to me a few days ago when I had problems with calls on iOS 5, but in the meantime the problem was solved by itself. Dialer Shield is available in Cydia for $1.49 in the BigBoss repo.
Dialer Shield protects you from inadvertently triggering buttons during a phone call.
Access to your buttons and ending a call is accessible via an intuitive two-way slider. Simply slide one direction for access button, slide the other to end the call.
