When screen is off the proximity sensor to activate Glance doesn't work. Anyone experiencing similar issue? If so any solutions until the 10586.71 releases to possibly fix it.

Every once in a while the glance screen won't activate but simply turning the phone off and back on fixes it. It happens maybe once or twice a month with both 8.1 and 10. (Lumia 928)

Sounds like mine problem is different. On my 1520, after about build 10586.29, Glance never worked at all. I rolled back to 8.1. And yes, I hope 10586.71 fixes it.

The Glance screen on my Lumia 950 XL has suddenly become too dim to be useful. I have not been able to find any setting to restore it. If I can't see it, it's useless. Anyone else? Running Technical Preview 10586.63.

Sometimes my glance screen doesn't activate when I pick up and move the phone around. It usually will work if I cover and uncover the front camera though. Slowly passing my hand over it is enough to activate the glance screen.

The Glance screen works with the proximity sensor, which in most lumias is near the front camera. So basically it is not programmed to activate it by picking up the phone from a table. The original thought was, that the glance screen turns on if you put your device out of your pocket (or bag).

You are not alone. L920, proximity sensor has problems -> glance screen has problems and of course, calling someone automatically turns off the screen.

Glance screen is currently not working on my 640 running 10586.36 on the insiders slow ring. Whenever I go Settings> Extras> Glance screen, the menu disappears after a few seconds or simply doesn't appear at all.
