The white phone seems to have this issue. No solution except to cut an opening for it.

PhantomSkinz iPhone 4 Screen Skin Re-design
MacRuler,
Great Post. In fact, just last week we re-designed all our iPhone 4 screen protectors to have a cutout where the Proximity Sensor is. This was not necessary for the Black model but we did this as a rolling change for both models. If you have our Screen Protection film and just recently purchased the White iPhone 4, please contact our Customer Service Department to initiate an exchange. If there is a pre-cut hole where the Proximity Sensor is on your Screen Protector, you have the most up-to-date design.

This issue has been discussed at length in other threads, some screen protectors work other's don't, I have the Bodyguardz, I had to cut a slot out.
The main issue is the proximity sensors and how it works on the white iPhone 4, this differs on the black as you know
