Hello all
I recently bought a SG4 and the compass I am guessing that is malfunction.
In navigation it fails frequently the orientation for example I am facing north and it says that I am facing south or other.
Is there anybody with similar issues?
Thanks.

Hi
I found that my defy plus is having a sensor defect.
I don't know what sensor causing this. The problem is that the guy in temple run is always running on the left side instead of staying at center.
Please help me .....tell me what sensor is causing this issues. Software or hardware?

Had the same problem, was an app that trigged proximity sensor, even if I had disabled the use of proximity sensor in the app. Uninstalled the app and noise was gone..

Hi all,
Yesterday i bought my new i9505 Vodafone XXUAMDC. Today i found out that during vibrations there are some strange sound at the top of the phone, like electrostatic discharge. What can it be? It has ever happened to anyone?
Also this only happens with high levels of vibration intensity.
Help me.
Thanks
Iv noticed this too. Has anybody else had this problem ?
Yeah like an ufo in your pants

I do a lot of bike and walking navigation with Google maps and was wondering if it is normal for the Map to be rotated slightly diagonal even though I'm walking or biking facing the direction of the street. Seems like the compass is not working. These are some examples where I was facing the direction of the street:

No, that just puts the Map in a fixed position

Any suggestions? I don't want to rma this phone because it's perfect otherwise.

anything with a magnetic field or an electrical field can throw off the compass from slightly to a lot.
It may be that that is the way the map is supposed to be, but Back in the earlier days of the mobile compass, they has to be calibrated, I had to do it all the time with my HTC wildfire, and once or twice with the N4 The easiest method for this is to hold the phone in your hand screen up with the application that you want to use the compass on screen, and turn your hand in a figure of 8 motion, moving only your wrist. There should be a video on youtube if you need. Hope this helps

Maybe that's the way the Map is supposed to be. It's always slightly slanted. Can anyone confirm? Thanks

Try drawing "∞ shapes" in the air with your phone to calibrate it.
Enviado do meu Galaxy S5
Or maybe stop living in Australia.

I've had this problem with all androids I've owned, all round the world. Figure 8 movements will prompt the arrow to point in another - seemingly random - direction. Do it 20 or do times and eventually it will point roughly the right way. Very evident when navigating around on foot.
