VR- problem with gyroscope - Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So i bought a cheap vr headset. I couldnt look around in any app or video. After long investingation, one thread suggested yo see use app, called "wireless IMU". And it shows 0 0 0 next to gyroscope. But in spesifications it shows that this phone has a gyroscope. So after even more surfing through internet, i gave up and came to the most inteligent people on the web. Can anyone help me?

I've only tried with Google Cardboard and it worked just fine. You tried with that?

No, i havent, but it shouldn't mean it wouldn't work. It doesn't have the magnetic button, but head tracking should work. And no app show, that gyroscope is working, even thought i can tilt the device and it shows side ways ;_; im out of ideas at this point

Not really sure how this app works but gyroscope is getting numbers for me.
Last resort is always a factory reset or reflash the factory image.

Even after a factory reset and factory image reflashed, it still doesnt show anything... And the thing is, all forums (usually 6p) say the devices doesnt tilt, but mine does...

Error - Cannot connect to camera

I get "Cannot Connect To Camera" When I use the camera app. I only get it when I use the front facing camera and reboots don't work. Im currently locked out of the camera app because I can't switch to the back camera. I don't have any other camera apps and I wasn't messing with the phone before this showed up. It worked perfectly before
This is what it shows

Are you running stock rom or are you on some custom?
The only time I've ever seen that error was when I still had my LG Ally, and when it gave me that error, it ended up being a hardware issue. It was still under warranty, so I sent it in and got a new one. With that kind of error, I'm guessing it's the same trouble, so you may look into whether or not you're still under warranty.
I.m had your problem you must reset factory your phone.
My front facing camera is green and dark, I attached a picture taken with it (it's the xda website). I guess it's a hardware issue, and I'm still under warranty but will they fix it or give me a new phone? I have unlocked my bootloader via the sony website (R800i)

Are you running a custom kernel?

The amazing moving app drawer!

Over the past couple of days, the app drawer on my unrooted stock Note 2 had taken to moving about randomly.
I'm not overly concerned about it, but I'm wondering if anyone else had experienced this.
Thus far, I've seen it move to the centre and the second rightmost position.
This morning, I actually watched it swap position when I unlocked my phone.
Regards,
Dave

It would be awesome if we can move it on command though, I want it in the middle.
Is everything still working correctly when it's moved?

Yes, everything still works fine. I wouldn't mind it in the centre all the time either.
Thus far, moving the other shortcuts around tends to snap the app drawer back, but it was weird this morning to see it move because I could swear it was animated (as opposed to simply just flipping position).

BTW turn your friggin wifi off if you're not using it, same goes for BT. Why would you waste your battery?

On this phone, doesnt matter. I no longer worry about cutting any service off and cant kill my battery! This is the way all phones should work! :good:

Thanks for the advice, but no thanks!
Battery life on the Note 2 is frankly epic, even if I leave WiFi and BT on.
I don't go chasing battery life on a device that can easily get me through the day.

[Q] Question on LG Health

I set this up yesterday before I left for work and had maybe 10-20 steps from just wondering around getting ready for work. When I got to work I noticed that 10-20 jumped up to around 1,300 steps. Thinking it was from driving to work I reset it and walked from building to building and around the office. For what walking I did I had maybe 500 before it was time to leave work. I got home and I had about 1,800 steps. I reset it and let the phone sit till I left last night. When I got home I noticed it had a lot more steps than it should. Seems like its just tracking movement and counting x number of feet and y number of steps. I went in today to clear everything from the app so it's like I have never used it, I'd like a fresh start for when I do use it again.
Now to the question, is their a way to stop it from tracking me? Unless I have overlooked it I'm not seeing anything. I tried to shutoff location based services however it still keeps track of the number of steps. I just want to shut it off for when I'm in a car with out having to shut my phone off or put it in airplane mode.
It uses the accelerometer to know how many steps you are doing, its not using your location.
Actually, it appears there are several sensors working together to capture this data, though I'm sure the accelerometer plays it's part.
I've experienced the same thing though, so I'm guessing the sensors could use a firmware tweak - perhaps in a future update they will refine them more?

Thanks, I did mean accelerometer very loosely just to distinguish it from location based services, but its always nice to see the full list of sensors.
Thank, but how do I stop it when I don't want it running? When I'm driving its registering as steps.

Google Maps Zooming Out Problem!

This is the first phone I've had problems with Google Maps. For some reason it's zoomed out following my route there is no say to get it closer. Ive cleared cache and data of the app. No joy. Can't think what else. Making navigation hard as can't seem to follow the route properly. Thanks

Hey, not an HTC 10 owner (galaxy s7 edge) but my google maps navigation just started doing the same thing today, it's a complete pain in the ass. Guess it's an app problem rather than your phone!
Maybe google play services has updated something and broken it!
Likewise on my LG Ultimate II, since yesterday.
I've found that the zoom-out issue only occurs when the phone is tilted (wide rather than tall), and only when "Tilt Map" is checked in the Navigation Settings. Unfortunately, that's precisely how I prefer to use it.
Hmm glad I'm not the only 1 then. Thought it was my new HTC10 being the problem.

I'm guessing it was some update which has screwed with it. Which is REALLY annoying!

I've already tried turning tilt off and on messing around with options doesn't make any difference. I always have my phone in landscape while driving. Haven't had chance to try in portrait.
I have noticed though if I'm on a long stretch of road it zooms right out then when I'm approaching hing a turning it does zoom in Abit more. But it's a stupid function.

Same here Sony Z3c, Send feedback to Google via the app, they obviously farked it up on the last update. I thought it was stuck in 2D mode, but its just zoomed out very far.
I note that as you get to junctions etc it does zoom in briefly, but then zooms out again afterwards.

Did you get it wet? Go for a run with it in your pocket and get it sweaty? My friend had a similar problem with his Nexus 4 after getting it water damaged.

Hmmm yeah, I have done that a few times but I stopped because I was a bit shocked at how much moisture got on the screen. Is it a ROM problem?

Yeah mate, you could always try and reset it to stock with a new KDZ flash. It may get a bit technical but over on the G3 General page there is a good guide for it. Just make sure you back up everything, contacts, messages, apps, data, photos, music, downloads.. ect to your computer or copy all that stuff to your external SD card, or you will loose it. Also make sure you are flashing the KDZ for your model, never flash one that is for a different model or you will have serious problems.
Chuck a search in google for your model number and something like " Stock factory flash " or something along those lines, then find the corresponding XDA thread for it. Hopefully that might fix your problem. If it doesn't your options are to order a new camera part from a supplier and replace it yourself, or send it in to LG and have them fix it.
Just curious, have you tried another camera app from PlayStore, just to see what it does?
