Gyro - G 2014 General

Hey guys, i'm sure you've noticed that the gyro on the moto g 2014 is very shaky !
Well, great news, it is not shaky anymore in Marshmallow, all the cardboard users will be happy !

[BUG] Multitouch lost after 12 seconds

A guy from another forum pointed me to this bug.
It starts when you hold two fingers in the screen for more than 12 seconds. Then the multitouch is lost. After a few seconds it fixes itself.
Has anyone noticed this?. Is there any fix or workaround?.
This is terrible for gaming.

Right, there are a lot of stand alone cameras that don't have that feature
Yes i noticed this when playing the n64 emulator, i just commented in one of the threads about it lol.
Apparently we have the same digitizer as the Nexus S. Mayb we can get the driver from it?

I think the point was, most cameras on phones do not have this feature and the Atrix did not have the feature out of the box.
IPhone does as well.
Anyway just tested this the bug is indeed real. This phone just has way too many issues.

...really? Galaxy S has, iphone has, n8 has...anyway there is no manual focus either on atrix. for a highend phone like this you have to be silly not to expect it.
anyways without being able to flash a kernel we wouldnt be able to do anything about multitouch far as i'm aware
A bit off topic but I don't see how the nokia N8 has autofocus considering it has a "full focus" camera, aka fixed focus.

Off topic... but full focus isnt the same as fixed focus. N8 has auto focus and C7, E7 has fixed focus

Is this bug fixable by software?.
Or is hardware related and will never be fixed?.

OMG I was wondering this while playing MARIO CART 64! You press B to go but you have to use the trackpad and 12 after the race starts, I always come to a stop and everyone passes me
LOL I sound like a dumbass kid now...but seriously, this is very very annoying...
The only work around I saw for Mario Cart was to use the Accelerometer sensor for the trackpad. Which is under Settings>Input Settings then Use sensor as-trackpad.
But this is defiantly an annoyance to other applications too...it really needs to be fixed.

any apps/widget using baro/temp/moisture sensor?

Hello,
I'm looking for a nice apk/widget that could shows what these sensors has to say. It's quite new as smartphone feature, but i would be really interested, and there are so much noise on the market that we can't really get something.
yes I tried the *#0*# on the phone to have access to sensor data, but it's not really user-friendly...

There is an app called S baro on the samsung app store, not sure of any widgets though.
22MB to have a barometer results... that's pretty confortable :/
galaxy s4 sensor from play store works on note3 also shows temp humidity baro n light intensity
Teleported from my SM-N9005 from The Enterprise

The easiest solution is calles AMBIENT. Its free.
WeatherPro shows your local measurements, but costs money.

Can we expect marshmallow soon?

Was reading this and given the note 5 ports thought it might not be long until we get a Samsung marshmallow n5 port for our n3?

I know there are 6.0.1 cm13 builds but I like using the stylus or at least having the option to, I might use it some day, you never know

Oh, with pressure sensitivity? does the camera still work well? 60fps and so on?
Last time I checked there were just too many features from the Samsung roms missing.

The captured images won't be of same quality on CM like it is on TW ROMs. Forget about 60 fps, LOL. It's just the something is better than nothing approach, nothing else.

Yeah, I am talking about quality on a phone cam sensor. The quality difference is so much that even with naked eye, and even a dull headed person will notice the difference! And I am a DSLR guy by the way!
My biggest issue with CM is that there isn't a good multiwindow implementation yet. I know they're working on it (I think Google, could be CM, not entirely sure who exactly it is that's working on it), but the feature is still in early alpha. I can't use my phone without it. It's like not having a browser or a SIM card.

No Compass on G4 (Plus)???

Is that true?? Why??
optionalmgrr.la said:

Click to expand...

Yes true that there is no compass but really you can't expect all the sensors and high end configs for a mid-ranger. It is a mid-ranger and it will have some cons. As far as I see it, maybe the NFC would be a drawback. I wouldn't really worry about the compass sensor. I don't think it would be useful very much. But its just my opinion, you may need it.
But compass is a fairly basic sensor......
Does it mean there will be no navigation support on G4 (Plus)?
Will the gyroscope help?
Yes, I am also just worried about navigation. Is it possible for Maps to direction based on Mobile Data/Wifi in the absence of magnetometer?

I do believe the Gyro would be suffice. Even the G3 didn't have one and I think not many people complained of it. They were able to navigate without a Gyro too. I am not sure how the compass sensors work or how useful they would be but I don't care anyway lol

The gyro won't help. However, the compass isn't necessary for navigation. The GPS is what you need, which can locate you wherever you are, so it can tell what way you're going. If you really need to know what way is north, South... and it's nighttime do you can't figure out from the sun, you'll need to open up maps, and start walking, and you'll see in what direction you're moving.

I wasn't aware G3 had a compass. I know its a basic sensor but maybe Motorola thought it wasn't useful so ditched it.

According to gsmarena, yes. The g2 also had, but it was a horrible gyro that was clearly not tested. I couldn't find any info on the play and regular edition
I asked the compass question in motorola's Forum and this was Matt's answer:
No, it does not have a compass/magnetometer. It does have GPS but won't support a compass app.
That make's it a NONO for hiking because a low speed or standing stil at crossroads you definitely need this to show "the way" aka rotate the map or the guiding arrow (like in Locus Pro). GPS does this at speeds above maybe 6 km/h.
as far as i know G3 does not have compass. i owned it ,
it also doesnt have NFC

There you go. Confirmed that it doesn't have the magnetic compass. Strange.. Why would Motorola do such a thing. Someone also replied on the other thread this could be the reason the phone doesn't support driving mode which was supported on g3!!!

Why would they do such a thing? Because most people won't realise and won't care. That's why. I personally do care, but I'm the minority.
Yeah pretty sucks. Hope they release G4 Turbo like G3 and include a proper compass. but don't hold your heads up the chance is slim.

Of course. The only issue would be with the cardboard v1, where the button, which was two magnets that didn't even touch the screen, wouldn't work as the phone doesn't contain a magnetometer (aka digital compass). Though even many phones which do don't work because of the placement.

Its have gyroscope or no?

Can anyone who already has the phone inform us?
No hardware gyroscope
But it has virtual gyroscope
That's amazing ?

My God, I needed a new and cheap phone, I'm leaving a Note 6 Pro that is already tired. But I think I regret buying this "Poco M3"
The gyroscope I saw in POCO M3's test mode is "Voltafield gyro Gyroscope Non-wakeup", it is a soft gyroscope.
Sorry guys, have u ever experienced some issues or bugs with the accelerometer/gyroscope sensor on the device? I've read many threads about some issue in the sensor and I hope not to be the only one and find some fix

No, but the GPS signal is not so accurate under heavy rain.
