Anyone experienced this? (Im Not on Froyo!)
- Desire refuses to switch to landscape mode in gallery. It does it once in a while but its getting pretty stubborn.
- Google Sky (might be compass related prob) always shows the same part of sky wherever you direct the phone to
I quess my phone accelometer needs calibration or something. Anyone with ideas?
Thanks
never experienced this problem in skymaps. use it a lot.
defo try and see can you reset the magnetic compass. Does it work in a compass app for example? get a simple compass app and try it. If it doesn't work in either app maybe its a hardware fault?
Hello everyone
My Dz( not rooted , working on stock rom 2.2.1) frezzing frequently.
Try with all solutions including hard reset.
But I noticed that when i touch nearby 5,8,7,9 its not releasing from touch effect; i activate touch tone. So i get noticed this because tone continuously going on.
So what will be solution for this? any body?

Any software to realign or check screen calibration.
I already tried with keybord calibration and g sensor calibration. But no use.
Can rooting device solve this issue?
Hope somebody help me on this/
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.

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.
Hello everyone,
I have a pretty big problem with the accelerometer on my S3. I'm running stock jelly bean, not-rooted.
The problem is that the sensor data is always way wrong. Using bubble level apps the phone always has to be tilted to an extreme angle to get the correct reading (holding the phone in portrait it has to be 45 degrees to the right for the bubble to be centered). This makes playing accelerometer based games impossible.
Calibrating from the motion menu does not work.
Factory reset did not work.\
Can anyone please help me with this?

My problem is pretty much the same as this person's, except they have a different device/ the problem wasn't resolved

Any ideas? Does anyone else have this problem?

Given what you've said it sounds more like its your hardware, as much as it sucks you might need a replacement.
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?
