Hello.
*update*
after install jm6 on my tab there was a "Horizontal calibration"
install jm6 go setting -> display settings -> horizontal calibration.
Works perfect for me. Now i can play alot of doodle jump
-------------------
My G Sensor on my Tab is really bad..
and i can't play games like Doodle jump..
How can i fix this?
- Maybe with Terninal Emulator?
I talk with Samsung, and they just say that i shall send it to service..
Sorry for poor english.
Hi
I have exaclty same problem, sensor are badly calibrated.
Can t play doodle jump... (I know, life is difficult)
Any idea to calibrate it?
Thank and regards
Matt
Hi,
Try Google Sky in landscape position ;-)
Poor or bad calibration !
Have the same issue. 2 Degrees x, 6 in y direction.
No feedback from Samsung service up to now.

There is a sensor self test - dialpad *#0*#
Thx, but a selfetest does not solve the problem
Calibration would help....
Anyone any idea, someone knows how Samsung would repair this, via Software or do they have to change ´some hardware?!

My tab also has the g-sensor problem. I tried two tab and both of them has different degree of G-sensor problem, I think the G-sensor problem caused by samsung's inaccurated calibration. I would also want to know the way to calibrate the sensor by myself, anyone can help?
This is the first thing I noticed when I buyed the tab. The gsensor is off, it often changes to landscape or portrait when only a little inclination is given.

Yeah I just download that free 'level bubble' app.
Pitch off by 2 degrees
Tilt off by 4 degrees
Noticed the same on mine. Not a big issue for me. Hopefully it will be addressed

Dicussion today with Samsung Service Hotline,
try full hardware reset, if that does not help send it to repair it.
Tomorrow ill have the chance to talk to a technical guy.
Keep u update.
Peter
Today discussion result.
1.) Wait for software upgrade, known issue, no info for release of new
Software
2.) Exchange Hardware. If lucky new ist ok, if unlucky change again.

Anyhow good info, means no hardware defect.

You can calibrate it with 3d compass apply in the market. It has a calibration option that should work fine.
P.d Samsung service has to be amongst the worst in the world. Will they ever solve anything?

Hey which developer is 3d compass by?
Sent from my SGH-T849
Its probably to calibrate the compass (magnetic North)
I use spirit level plus (by Androidika) which has calibration but only within the app itself which means you place the tab on a level surface and hit the calibration button and it 'zeros' everything out. I doubt it calibrates the internal sensors.
Tried both, but calibration only works inside the app.
Try to get any statement from t-mobile our Samsung on monday
If someone has a solution....

Peter
Ok,
finaly T Mobile sent me mail.
Software Update to come, no but no idea when...
In the meantime use "official" Firmware from Samsung and flash it (even if not offered via Kies).
Anyone can tell me what is the latest "official" firmware for European device?
Got already feedback from other user, that with a flashed ??6? version there is a botton to calibrate..
thx

Is there any chance to calibrate the touchscreen in 2.3?
Program is needed. What? I do not know
in 1.6 and 2.1 there was a screen calibration tool, in 2.2 and 2.3 there was none. You could add a apk in 2.2 to calibrate it, but this program doesn't work in 2.3.
How come some people need to calibrate and some don't?
I did not need to calibrate when i had 2.3.2
Sent from my GT540 using XDA App
i need to, i mistype annoyingly often since 2.3.2
I need one too
Here, you can find the HTC tool to calibrate the touchscreen in Android 2.3.
It's possible, that this tool works like "placebo".
P.S. Sorry, but my English isn't perfect.

thanks it runs on the optimus but is there any apps that can test the calibration before and after using touchscreen calibration apps?
Unfortunately no. Maybe this app works like placebo. After calibration you can feel an improvement, but really this app doesn't work.
Have you tried Touch Calibration. You can get it in the app store.
Sorry forgot to mention that it checks the calibration before saving.
I think the stock LG one work from 2.1
I'm not a developer, but i guess the original LG touch input driver isn't the same one used as that in CM. I too have been looking for answers but not able to find any.
I did post a youtube video on this called CM6.1.2 on GT540 Screen Calibration Problems (can't post links as i'm a new member). That used the LG screen calibration APK that fishears posted and although not on the video, the data\nv directory created with permissions set to full write (chmod 777)
Can people still on LG Rom post their /data/nv/ts_cal contents to see how different other peoples touch screen offsets are.

As I said earlier Touch Calibration allows you to calibrate your screen and it also checks the calibration afterwards for you. It's one that I use and it works for me.

I tried and it works well on joes AOSP 2.3.2
So people, has anyone here been using is TF as a drawing tablet? I basically got mine thinking it would do a decent job replacing my graphic tablet when I'mnot at home, and I must say that with Photoshop Touch and the adonit Jot, it's been really great.
So if there's anybody here who uses it this way, I would very much like to see what they managed to obtain, so show off !
For people interested, here is what I got to do with a little work (and I have a last one, with a topless girl, which his my last and favorite creation... but I'm not sure I can show it here).
What do you use? Also, must show or we won't believe you can draw naked girls.
I made my signature with the jot and PS touch, I've done other things as well..like a SPARK signature logo in paul burton's dev thread..very handy..
That's some nice stuffs

How did you manage to get a different brush in PS Touch ? I can't find for the life of me a way to change it...

Okay, so here we go :
Yeah, from what I've gathered you can't change brush shape, only size, opacity, flow and hardness, but you can enable pressure sensitivity, yet it just random jitters with the jot, sure the jot 2 will enable this option fully, ICS already has pressure sensitivity via Bluetooth function built in IIRC.
But you get warp and filter masks etc so i use these functions to address the missing brush options.
Speaking of pen pressure... Did anyone try the stylus from the HTC Flyer or the Samsung Galaxy note with our TF ? PS Touch and SBPro claim they use the pressure ; can we get it with these ?

Unfortunately, I don't think so. With those pens, AFAIK, they require special hardware in the screen similar to a Wacom screen.

Well, given that theses styli are battery powered, I figured they would analyse the pressure themselves and send the,information to the device... after all that's the way my lowgrade Aiptek tablet works.
Thank you to the others for your nice comments.
Up !
Just to let you know I purchased Sketchbook Pro : wanted to see if it could be easier than Photoshop Touch to use. Well, I find the UI really intuitive, and it has freaking brushes ! Yay.
The con is that the number of layers is limited - 7 or 8, not sure. I only know I've found myself merging layers 'cause I needed a new one and had reached the app's limit.
Anyway, here's what I did this evening : took me about one hour, and I'm quite pleased with the way it turned out.

Nice man, I wish I had this kind of talent.
Just got sketchbook pro. Takes alot of getting used to but I like it so far! I am using a regular pen for tablets. This sketch took a while because I had to figure what everything does lol. Anyone got tips on using sketchbook pro?
Yay, like it - a lot! As you might already have guessed, you'll find the Transformer works best with sketching: getting a clean line can be a pain the ass, but eventually, everything seems to be possible.
As for tips, I'm afraid I don't have any. I know I have spent a fair amount of time learning to edit my brushes (you can change opacity, smoothness, spacing, hardness/smoothness... almost everything, for both the extremities and the middle of a line) only to find my settings didn't stick when I would close the app... but hey, with a bit of practice, it's pretty fast to set up again. If you ever used Photoshop or the Gimp, you'll find a lot of similarities.

yes, calibration has done several times, there is no signal from mems g-sensor....
I have a strong feeling it's soldered onto the mainboard by machine with very precise and small leads, I doubt it is doable for humans to be able to do it.
progress?
Anyone found the position of the G-sensor?
Mine isn't working, also the compass is not working. I tried all possible callibration options i found searching with google.
Does anyone else get the following:
1. GMaps not recognising the compass and not turning its compass as you turn round;
2. Compass app goes mental when you test by spinning round (mine spins the wrong way then back randomly)
?
Looks like my Note3 is proper fkd. At the moment it's just peeing me off.

Sounds like the Note 3 is suffering from the same compass issue as the S4. The compass just needs to be calibrated. Download GPS Status & Toolbox (excellent app!) from Google Play Store and go to Tools/Compass calibration. That should fix it. Calibrate the compass outdoors away from metal structures for best accuracy. Factory reset resets also the compass calibration data, but luckily the calibration takes only about 10 seconds or so. Hope this helps!

Cheers Pete.
I did try that but it's still flying all over the place.
Sending it back as faulty. There's too much I dislike about this phone to make it worth £620.
I tried with mine and a few demo units from the stores.
After a thorough test, they all essentially have this problem. My one, when you go to *#0*# it would just either not spin or spin sporadically, same with the demo units.
I guess it's a software problem, 4.3 problem essentially, my AOSP'd Note 2 also has this problem

I have a feeling that when I leave my house, there is a lot of magnetic interference because my compass always works in my house :/

My new device still has this bug, but calibrates faster than my first one. It's a widely known bug, maybe Samsung needs to fix it.
FWIW mine has the same problem. I did manage to get it work work correctly for a little while by using a "metal detector" app which vibrated when it detected something. It suddenly started behaving correctly for a short while.
Calibrating it with the GPS Tools app also fixes it for a little while.
Having the same issue with my Note 3 as well.The GPS Status app using the compass calibration fixes the problem but once you restart the phone the compass no longer works again and you need to calibrate once more.
It seems like a software bug issue rather than a faulty compass.It's annoying but at least there is a solution.
