I am having some problems here. I am trying to get the Accelerometer to read car motion acceleration only and cannot get it to work. I only need the Accelerometer to notice a sustained acceleration for say 5-8 seconds. I would be interested in paying the right individual to finish this for me. If interested please PM.
Thanks,
JW
So what code do you have so far?

Hey Everybody I have experienced and corrected the compass / magnetometer issue in the epic by calibrating the unit upside down.
I am curious of a few things.
Does your Magnetometer work correctly without calibration in EB13?
If you calibrate with your screen facing up does it cause the Magnetometer to display erratic results EB13?
If you calibrate the unit while the screen is facing down does it solve the issues?
What Hardware revision are you on?

::My Results::
Used exe from Samsung to update
Compass didn't work right after the flash.
Calibrated display upside down.
Used compass calibration tool.
Now it works great.
GPS is great.
EB13 is better than DK28 but still has issues....
Hardware Revision
D700.0.5
My old man updated OTA. his compass was fine. Never rooted or flashed.
Mine was messed up by flashing dk28. horribly.
Rooting and running "/system/bin/sensorcalibutil_yamaha" face-up fixed the erratic behavior.
"Settings>display>calibrate" face-down fixed the backwards reading.
Works great now.
EB13 has a calibrate option where I don't recall seeing it in 18?
Hey all,
I am just curious if there is a corrilation between hardware revision and sensor issues. What hardware version are you guys?
Thank you!!!
I noticed issues with the accelerometer mainly when playing Words With Friends. It was damn near impossible for me to not have the words constantly shuffling. This was after having calibrated with the phone face up. I just recalibrated with the phone held upside-down on a door frame and now have no letter shuffling issues in Words With Friends...

Did it how you did it and.now I have no more rotation lag. Thanks

Thank you so much! I was on the verge of returning my handset due to the compass not working, I figured the unit was broken. I could not find any info anywhere, and this fixed everything. Now CDompass works, as does Google Sky Chart. Yeah! Thank you!
using bonsai 3.0.0 rom and kernel
both sensors working great no need to calibrate.
i could be wrong but i think everyone has the same hardware version unless somehow you were part of a beta test and have the beta hardware.
i have the same hardware as you.
Unfortunately for me, none of the tips provided here or elsewhere worked. My hardware revision is same as the others here: D700.0.5
I have calibrated the phone facing up, facing down, facing sideways. Ran the sensorcalibutil_yamaha util. Nothing. On a flat surface, the phone points North where West should be. If I rotate the phone a little, it changes its mind completely and thinks East is where West should be.
It has done this with all the various official and unofficial ROMS I have installed on this thing. Is there anybody else in the same boat as I? Is my phone broken and would Samsung fix this under warranty?
Thanks.
I've had my 1st gen Nexus 7 for almost a year, got it in December as a Christmas present to myself and I've had a few problems ranging from the screen not rotating, to aiming issues in fps games and some random reboots, all of these problems usually fixed themselves or I fixed them through tips and guides online.
However this time I'm a little confused; My Nexus 7 last week had a minor issue regarding screen rotation for a day or two in which it seemed to have stuck either in portrait or landscape and it fixed it's self, although since then I still check by rotating my screen on it's 4 ends to check if it does this correctly because I'm paranoid like that.
Now my current issue is with the gyroscope I believe, in games that have the option to use it, I do like in Modern Combat 4, it makes it easier to aim than using the touch screen to manually aim and fire, before I was able to move the camera in every possible direction to aim my weapon and had no issue, although this time my problem is just that.
I try to aim and it lets me for a moment and then it wants to center it's self and then it's really difficult to move my tablet around to aim at all, although moving it really quickly in another direction fixes it, then I try to aim again and it gives me trouble moving the camera.
Not really sure what to do now as I've tried to do my usual things to fix it, and there are two ways I check to see if it's a major problem, I check Modern Combat 4 and see how the aiming is with the gyroscope enabled, and The Sims Freeplay, the reason I mention the Sims is because earlier this year when I was having gyroscope issues my sims would react as if I was flipping the screen from one landscape to the other and would constantly do this.
Also during this time my screen wouldn't rotate but after a week or two the issue somehow fixed it's self and it was fine until now, although the issue is just aiming in FPS games and my sims react just fine now as I can freely rotate my screen without a problem.
Nobody?

I direct you to the Google forum on the Nexus 7 Sensor (aka Gyroscope) problem.
Since I am brandy new on this forum, I can't actually post the URL here:
productforums.google.com/forum/#!topic/nexus/GgnRFsw3o-Q%5B176-200-false%5D
There look to be about four or five different problems with sensors including the orientation/gyroscope sensor.

I've checked it out and it doesn't seem like many solutions helped, I'm under warranty so I may just send it in for repairs.
Dear Team,
If you can please guide me through to resolve my error with regards to Gyroscope sensors while playing games.
I play "asphalt 8 airborne" extensively on my phone henceforth my sensor initially works okay but after a use of 30 min the sensor does not respond to my action on contrary over responsive behavior is observed.
To resolve this i have been using variety of custom rom on wide range and lastly settled with Stock Rom factory version. but unfortunately this wasn't the solution as-well. i have used different rooted and non rooted app to calibrate the sensors but this was temporary solution.
Kindly help me with your feedback as what would be my next step to resolve this?
Regards
HI,
Seriously need some suggestions on this.
Regards
Hi guys, i hope everyone is doing great....this is my first post so if i post this in the wrong section or forum please do advise me or feel free to move it.
Alright i have a Samsung S5 SMG900i Australian one; unfortunately somehow the sensor stopped working what i mean is that gyro fails on screen test , auto rotation not working , neither when i play games that uses tilting , so yeah....phone seems broken, curious thing though is that if i reboot in safe mode and quicmyl get out of it and restar in normal mode, gyro will give readings and start working until it breaks down again within a few minutes; ive reinstalled using lates, old, experimental, nighlys. any room either official or stock still gyro and tilt sensor not working can anyone help me with this? Another thing is i love playing Airplane games now that gyro or tilt sensor is not working i want to see if i can either fox this issue , or i could get an app that draws a stick over the games and simulates the gyro with my movements? What i mean is; if i want to play a airplane simulator but the plane wont move because my phone is broken, anyone knows of an app that can simulate gyroscope or tilt movements with a simple joystick so i could move the planes as if i was moving the phone?.
I count with
S5
Cm13 latest nightly
Xposed
Root apps and adb
Please so helo me either find an app that can simulate gyro with a joystick or any way i could use root or xposed to force the gyroscopic sensor reset?.
Very very thanks in advance and i apologize for my bad english i tried my best to make myself as clear as possible.
Cheers.
Has anyone had problems with the gyroscope in vr applications?
The compass works very slow. And vr applications are not able to move the screen with the movement of the phone.
Any way to calibrate the compass or gyroscope?. Anyone else has happened?

i dont use vr, but a lot gps navigacion,i install gps esencial from play store and its giving me under 20 ft precision mostli al the time, but google maps its get lost a lot, somtimes an error of 1000 to 3000 ft. im thinking is software problem not hardware. other navigators go beter but still get lost somtime. my motorola G first generacion is a crack, never lost.
There is a known issue with the gyroscope being non functional . There is a fix in the latest OTA formware update which came out last night. I've just updated and thingsseem ok.
