Proximity sensor not working, But other sensor works fine.

I bought an iPhone 5 CDMA off of eBay a while back, and My proximity sensor will just not work on calls or anything else. But the light sensor and front camera work just fine. I have also confirmed the proximity sensor itself works by using the screen in another iPhone 5 and placing a call. For some reason though, it won't work it mine. Idk What to do, I have iTunes restored the firmware and all that stuff, but nothing. Any ideas?

Answer this question I have this problem too

Is this a good question?

Assuming an iTunes restore didn't work, what if you put your phone into DFU mode and do a hard restore. Otherwise, you could check the phone settings... This does sound kind of weird.

I tried a DFU restore like you said, but no luck.. Idk what the heck is up, but it just irritates me when I talk on the phone..
