Galaxy tab pro 10.1 gyro problem - Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2, 10.1, 8.4 Q&A, Help & Trouble

hello,
I have a problem with gyroscope poorly calibrated on my tablet SM-T525
I've realized it with the launch of the game Real Racing 3, control by tilting the tablet, I have to keep it to the right to go straight .....
And the option to calibrate inside the game does not change anything.
Obviously, same problem with application bubble level, the bubble is not in the center when I put the tablet on a flat surface.
And no calibration option in the settings of the tablet.
Rather common problem? A future update of the firmware can solve it?

Huge problem with gyroscope, please help.

As title.
Since many days my gyroscope is going mad.
If I leave the phone motionless, on a table for example, the gyroscope does not remain stationary, it moves.
I tryed the free app from the market GyroRotate, I leave the phone on the table, and the cube moves by itself. This make games like battlefield unplayable.
I'm experiencing this problem since some days, why?
I have the stock rom. Are you experiencing the same problem?
Can you try the GyroRotate app please and tell me if your cube moves if you leave the phone on the table?
Thanks.
Tested with that App and mine is fine. Have you tried the figure 8 movement to reset the gyro?

Mine also works as expected.
Thanks to all. Now is fine here also.
A battery pull solved the problem.
Neither a reboot solved before the battery pull.
My phone takes 4-5 seconds to switch from landscape and portrait and I am having the same issue with games from time to time. I am still incredibly surprised and annoyed that they did not include a "calibration" option in settings.
Mine still has roughly a 2 second lag when rotating. Today when playing a game that you can rotate to landscape on either side it keeps flipping itself as though I'm holding the phone upside down...argh...so frustrating.
I tried the figure 8 now and if that doesn't help then I did a battery pull
I tried to find the GyroRotate app but it doesn't exist on the android market.
Still having issues.
I have the same problem I wonder if the games are messed up, because the app "gyroscope rotate" works fine.
But Brothers in arms 2 (free app) it's moving to the right by itself.
Can someone else try this game?
Also Asphalt 6 is messed up too.

pull out the battery and start the game when the phone is on the table.

pull battery didn't help..
same problem here, tried battery pull with phone turned off and then turned on, but still neither worked. Don't understand what "8 movement" people are talking about. Is any way I can solve this problem ??? I want to use google cardboard on my galaxy s4 but it goes to one side alone slowly -.-
Goggle Cardboard problem
Hi, I have the same problem with realy slowly movement of sreen in Google Cardboard app. I have tested my gyroscope with other app and it is very accurate. Any suggestions how to fix it
Same problem with Samsung Galaxy S3, after shaking the phone the movement changes direction for a while. This problem is really visible in virtual reality apps. What can be done to fix this? Any help is really appreciated!
Same problem here with the galaxy note 3. The cardboard app is impossible to enjoy and also photospheres are moving left by their own. Could it be an hardware problem? Has anyone found a fix?
Here is the solution that worked for my Samsung Galaxy S4:
1. Open Phone app
2. Tap on Kepad tab
3. Type *#0*#
4. Tap on Sensor
5. Put your phone on a flat surface
6. Tap on Gyro selftest button
7. After the PASS message, tap the back button until you exit on the homescreen.
That's it! Hope this helps you guys.

[Q] pedal/button issue in games? (touchscreen?)

Hi Everyone,
I recently purchased a 2014 Note 10.1, primarily for gaming. It's still bone stock, updated to the latest US firmware (MK1). I am experiencing an issue with the touchscreen. In games such as Asphalt 7, Riptide & Mini Motor, if I set them for manual acceleration with an on-screen pedal, the pedal works intermittently. For instance, if I start a new game in any of the above titles, the pedal works for maybe the first 10 seconds and even with finger still on it, the on-screen pedal just deactivates at some random point. If you go to press the on-screen pedal again, it may or may not engage immediately - and if it does, it will disengage again at some point. It will do this throughout the game making them impossible to play well. At first I thought it was a problem with Asphalt 7, but the same exact thing happens in Riptide and Mini Motor. So now I'm wondering if my brand new Note has a touchscreen issue or if this is problem that other people can reproduce.
Could anyone please let me know if this exact same behavior happens to you? I really don't want to have to return this tablet if its just a driver issue.
Please let me know, thanks.

[Q] how to calibrate accelerometer

Just got the 16GB 8.4 tablet and I really like it... BUT...
The accelerometer is off about 7degrees (checked bubble level app) on the horizontal.
Sure, it's a minor problem. It only shows up when using google sky or playing a game. But, it should be easy to fix and the fact that I cannot find a way to fix it is damned annoying!
So, does anybody know of a way to calibrate the accelerometer and KEEP the claibration accross all apps?
The bubble level app does have a calibration mode but it only works within the app.

Problem with G sensor when gaming

I have the Tab Pro 8.4 and have been playing GT Racing 2. The problem is the game has an option to steer the cars by tilting the Tab from left to right and when I try to do this the car spins in a circle. I've figured out that while the game is played in landscape the gyro is still registering as it was in portrait. I have tried turning the auto rotate off and forcing the Tab into landscape but it didn't help. There are no options within the game that would allow me to calibrate. I installed the game on my HTC One (M7) and it works properly. I have to believe this is a problem with the Tab and not the game itself.
Anyone else experience anything like this and or does anyone have any ideas on how to fix this?
Edit.
My Tab is completely stock and not rooted at this time.

Redmi Note 8 Pro Gyroscope Problem

As some of you guys might already know Redmi devices have Gyroscope issue but it get fixed with Calibration (in my case temporarily)
previously in Android pie, while playing pubg Gyroscope was working fine with no issue, but i had the issue with my gyroscope while charging where my aim was moving on its own even on a flat surface. but it used to happen while charging only (& my Gyroscope setting is always on with 190 sensitivity just for the info)
And now in Android 10 it happens after every 10, 15 minutes doesn't matter how many times i 've calibrated my device but it never get fixed permenantly.
But I know the temporarily solution:
About > All Specs >Tap 3 times on kernal version > Press on the top right corner & go to additional tools
Acc Calibration Tool:
Accelerometer ( not all values are zero) just calibrate your accelerometer, & your device should be on a flat surface
Gyroscope Calibration Tool:
Gyroscope (all values are zero but some are in (-ve) zero don't know why ?)
Calibrate Gyroscope - also device should be on a flat surface
check your Gyroscope issue with 'Compass app' and values should be constant on a flat surface
You can also use 'Gyroscope Test App'
in my case:
mine only gets fixed after calibrating and waiting for 20 seconds at least. i use Gyroscope test app to know whether my Gyroscope issue is fixed or not
and mine never get fixed after device reboot.
seems like this is the Hardware issue. i tried to hard reset changed rom to miui 12 came back to miui 11 but the issue is still there.
and calibration is the temporarily solution for me until i don't reboot my device.
didn't tried custom rom yet.
Did any of you guys have the similar issue, or any of you know how to fix it? Please Help!
Strange seems like no one is facing this issue
I am facing the same problem from past two days on my redmi note 8 pro . It can be fixed temporarily by rebooting the device . But after opening CIT by tapping kernel version my accelerometer is not showing anything it's blank

Sorry to say that i cannot help ??
Facing the same issue. Screen doesn't rotate, accelerometer and gyroscope values are blank in CIT
On a steady table using the built in level function in the compass app was showing 1 degree (table not perfectly flat) for a couple of minutes and now it`s changed to 2 degrees and has been showing that for over five minutes, The only problem i have had is if i am on the home-screen in portrait mode with the phone on the table and click on my browser (opera) the screen will change to landscape mode, Then if i lift up the front of the phone the display will change to portrait mode, It does this with a few apps and it can be a pain, I could download a screen rotation all to fix the problem if i needed, So no major problems and i am not phone gamer, I prefer my 360 or PC
i hope this work for you
If your gyroscope is temporary work after restart you can fix it with my guide:
1.restart your device
2.open the cit test (multiple tap on kernel number)
3.calibrate your gyroscope in flat surface and make sure your gyroscope is still active
4.follow the other sensor calibration until you complete the compass calibration .
4.you can exit cit and check all your sensors
note:do this as fast as you can

:::my note8 pro also has same issue
i also tried all the tricks, calibration and all stuff but it only worked temporarily. if i place my phone on flat surface, it stops moving for some minutes but starts moving again.
i even tried changing my miui version from global to indian varient but the problem is still on. these days when i press the phone on top left corner, the gyroscope moves even more faster and when i press it around middle, it starts moving in opposite direction but never stops. somewhere i have hheard that this may be due to hardware issue, because of heating.
