Seems the accelerometer works in some apps but not in others.
Examples:
aTilt 3D - Yes
TurboFly 3D - No
(some free 'bubble level' app I tried) - No
Anyone know why that would be?
Anyone care to list the apps they have tried and what the outcome was?
I've had a similar experience, the tricorder app recognized the accelerometer but a plumb bob/ protractor app did not. My rookie guess would be a driver problem.
Don't have an answer, but I noticed this as well: Screebl doesn't recognize the accelerometer either...
Don't some of those apps need a g-sensor (which as I understand it is different than an accelerometer...)

For kicks I installed Torque (OBDII reader; fairly useless for me on the nook without Bluetooth, although it does support WiFi OBD dongles), which also measures acceleration/G-force, and at first glance, that measurement appears to be working well.
I expect many things will probably start working properly once we are able to rid ourselves of this castrated 2.1; looking forward to CM7 very very much.
Hi, anyone figured this out? I am desperate to get Screebl working. all Screebl needs is the X and Y axis, which works in some other apps/games.
Reviving an old topic as I'm having the same issue: accelerometer works for Labyrinth Lite and Grow, but not Furdiburb.
Anyone with the same issue? I'm on CM7 by the way.
Any ideas about this?
I never really tested this out, but I remember trying one game a while back, and only seemed to register full 90 degree turns. Anything in between it would not pick up correctly. Maybe it has something to do with the way sensor data is read?
I seem to be having issues with the accelerometer being inverted.
I have installed CWM and TnT latest and some apps that I am trying to use seems to be use the accelerometer backwards
Stickman: I tilt left figure goes right and vice versa
LighterFree: I can open the lighter but if I hold it right side up it acts like I have it upside down
these are just a couple examples
anybody else having this issue and is there a solution to it?
Bump anybody
I sort of have this issue, but it is because some games launch upside down, so the tilting is reversed... haven't found/heard of a solution yet.
Anybody found a resolve for this
Same problem,
Really sucks.
VEGAn-Tab Beta5.1 is the only ROM that seems to run accelerometer based apps correctly.

this is what I am using, and still see this issue on games that launch upside-down...
Same Problem
Same issue. Doodle Jump was working when I first flashed this ROM, now reversed accelerometer controls. No clue what changed. VEGAn 5.1
I use Vegan Tab 5.1.1 and the accelerometer works fine, but when I flashed GingerEdition the accelerometer went crazy.
vegan tab is now on 7 RC1, I have it and the issue is still there. There is an issue with the ginger roms that does that. They have a fix for it I think but it disabled external mouse use. Follow this post. You can get it off the Downloads section from the Vegan Tab Rom page as well.
I believe TnT lite or Mountain Laurel uses the same "fix".
Flashes ASOP Gingerbread yesterday and thought is was pretty good but just like Vegan Ginger the Accelerometer was broken in games. Guess this is a just a Gingerbread problem right now?
Hello There I updated my folio to cm9 and found out that i cannot post on developement , so i decided to create a new thread to here in order to publish todays testing of the new rom.
First thing is that i installed with cwm 5.0.0.9 with no problem so that worked too.
It worked smooth and fast. Not as fast as foliomod 1.4 but almost.
I have SOD with no app installed only market. (i try to reinstall with the creator proposed recovery)
I found that i can install now the 3.1 and up applications like adobe photoshop and ideas .
I painted photoshop for a few hours and had a strange freezing first than after a minute and so it came to life by itself.
30 minutes later it freezed for good and it ruined the system so i had to reinstall the ROM...
I couldnt make a photo of the system message of boot error but it said 2 differend one wifi related and 1 driver related...
(sorry i have no chance to logcat because of win7... If someone pm me about a solution of logcat work in win7)
I am a newbie so i dont know how to use developer related programs and webpages but i try to share information with the community here.
All in all i think this ROM is faster and better than honeycomb mods and runs photoshop (i wanted a tablet to paint...)
I had strange wifi signal ups and downs during connection...
working:
- UI
- Wifi
- Bluetooth
- Sensors
- Audio
- Gapps
- skype, imo
- games (cut the rope), gameloft apps (x2 optimus version)
not working
-youtube app
-flash in browsers
-playing flash videos
I want to thank for all who is working on the ICS ROMs right now, you do a really good job guys, please keep up so we can all have a very good tablet working .
Im looking forward for solutions for not working parts and updates .
So glad to hear the photoshop works on it - that's one of the apps that I was really hoping would work. Did you say that photoshop remained pretty stable over those few hours?
I know that the rom is going to be pretty unstable though - SOD is not a real issue to me, but the rom corrupting itself is a bit of a worry!
no sod for me, stable rom, youtube works fine, remove the hd video display, we have to wait for the flash player updates the rom, maybe you should use the Opera browser.
Hey guys,
Flash didnt work with my 4.0.3 Rom too. The "SOD" wakes up after round about 30 sec in my case, dont reboot so fast.
Working Stuff:
Apparatus
GTA 3 (v. 1.2)
Youtube (not full tested)
Reckless Racing HD
My Issues:
Sound sometimes didnt work after "half SOD"
Wlan Problems (didnt connect to my wlan, after reboot 2 or 3 times its gone, this bug is since the Dexter 0.3 mod)
My Question:
Can i change the Resolution? The HC 0.3 Rom, had the best for my opinion
Anyone try a usb gamepad? This would be awesome with the snes emu
Can i turn off the softkeys?
Can i fix the 180° display rotation from bootup?
I will try some tests and things and give feedback.
best regards
Dave
A guy called Strozzi posted that
Screen rotation: OK but after having enabled it in the trebuched app

Does that fix what you mean?
I find the whole 10 posts before you post in the development section a bit silly. I understand the desire for the forum to not be full of 'noobs' but I registered because I could help with an answer to a question that someone asked. Oh well...
Loving all your reports on ICS tho... going to give it a try once the app store starts showing everything! Photoshop is the main pull for me tho...
It was stable until the slowup and freeze, i think it is useful if u save frequently. It has the core funcions of everything you need in photoshop.
someone write that the flash contend work only with the opera browser, i will test this at the evening.
What i mean with the rotation is, the display looks greater when the screen is 180° rotated
greets

Ah yes, i dont think thats possible to phisically turn the display 180 degrees because of construction... It is the biggest fault in toshiba's development history to use a screen like this...
SO todays testing last update on cm9:
Still no idea on SOD.
I got into a bootloop from a normal power off than power on with wifi
After that loop i used mblasters recovery to reinstall it again...
got into bootloop right after intstall. I did a factory reset to get it started up again.
I got a system up and running again with no apps :S
I dont think this is app related...
I have SOD with the new recovery too. Looks like i'm the only one fighting with SOD. ( my device go to hibernation after 30 sec from screen off and no way to wake it up)
And.... after the first SOD i got into bootloop again... then with a simple restart it is working... i dont know what to do now. Maybe reinstall is not necessary if this happens every now and then...
i got the 2. time a SOD, dunno why its totally random....
Flash didnt work with the Opera Browser. I think i make a fastboot -w shortly and test it again.
Its possible that is the old genovea problem with the 256 mhz and vcore bug, with the SOD?
I think i install a Linux to get some logcat output.
edit: im a dumbass, logcat also available @ adb.exe logcat :/
best regards
Dave
really good job on this rom! Try it with ADW launcher EX and it will run completely smooth!
It's an experimental build and we already have a nearly stable rom, it just needs to improve the performance, add ondemand cpu governor (performance governor has horrible battery life), get flash working, use camera (not really important for me) and we would have the perfect rom!

Someone mentioned in the dev thread that there is no flash version for ICS yet which is why flash isn't working. This true?
As for camera - really not a biggie. They'll only get that working once the source for it is released. Not sure if that is...
The strange thing is that some people are saying this rom is perfect and stable while others are talking about it crashing and going into a bootloop... :/

It's pretty stable for me, I'm using it as "every-day" rom. Flash Player for ICS was released in December, also I've seen it working nicely on a GT-i9000 with 4.0.3 just downloading flash from android market.
I neither care about the camera. I've never used it. Now I rmember another problem on the rom: USB storage (connecting folio to PC) doesn't work.
Well I bit the bullet and have gone to CM9. The rom is great, took a while to get my google account setup (kept getting the unreliable connection error) but overall I was impressed. One SOD but seems way more stable than foliomod and the speed is great.
My only question is... How did you guys get apps on that aren't 'supported'. Two apps that I know work are 'unsupported'. Do I just change the build.prop or are you guys using a different method? Really want photoshop touch and RawVision on my device.
Oh and a small tip, I forgot to wipe when I upgraded and I had a working update from CM7. Only issue was that the market app was broken, but as that's pretty integral I had to wipe...
tested the new build, so far it has he same issues as the previous build, but Wifi lost when tablet is sleeping seems to be fixed! Also I've noticed that multi-mount sdcard app doesn't work now.
new version
I still cannot get the folio out of hibernation in cm9, however i figured out that my total crash message was not real. When freezed, the folio wont boot for a while (30 minutes or so). After about half an hour it is booting like nothing happened. Freezing was a rare thing with r1 now it is regular, so it is not too good. I think battery drain is still problem. Many apps is working corrupted or not work at all, but some other work that not before. Oh and you have to forget flash for now. I think it is still not good for everyday use but it is definitely not far from that. Hold on for 1 more month Nopy pls.
My issuses:
- Power Button needs to be pushed twice or more for wake UP from standby
- camera Shows mutiple (4) live pics, no Video ins possible
- No Market Download works
- home Button (softbutton on the side ) is out off order
- Touchscreen ins a little Bit less sensitive
Flash, gmail, and youtoube works, gapps Form goo-inside ins installed

hitting several times power button solves SOD problem for me......
After instaling last cm9 version with 2.6.39 kernel I can't get rid off SOD...
hi there,
i just installed the new CM9.0.0.0
Great ROM, very good job, everything seems to work fine
Just one thing : i've got something like small electrical discharge when i touch the screen, i can hear the sound of it like static electricity
Am i the only one and what can i do?
Market not working
Hi *,
also installed cm9 with kernel 2.6.29.
A real awesome rom, thank you for the good work!
I have the issue that apps won't install in the market. When trying to download, folio says that an error has occured.
Any hint what could cause this behavior?
I installed the gApps with clockworkmod recovery.
renamed zinfile in update.zip, copied to sdcard
booted into recovery
applied update.zip to recovery.
Apps work, market also but u can't donload any app.
thanks,
Buggi
I have this issue on cyanogen mod 7.1 maybe.
some apps for example for ar.drone 2.0 i use this app https://play.google.com/store/apps/...1bGwsMSwxLDEsImNvbS5wYXJyb3QuZnJlZWZsaWdodCJd (maybe someone know this?) when i move in front this accelerometer go left instead front, and if go on right instead back.
Possible axes are wrong direction on some apps. But the things more strange not all apps have same problems...if play a game race car is correct direction so what wrong?
Sometime others apps is correct but not all apps have same direction correct. Dunno if this issue have something to do on mod 7 or issue for only apps? Wasnt first time happened me...is kinda a bit annoyng.
Someone have same problem experience about it?
I hope can solve problems with cmd 9 but im waiting when is all stable next months.
This is a known issue at least in CM9, I believe

Hi,
I got a Kingzone K1 MTK6592 phone last Friday.
Would be almost perfect to me if I didn't have this problem: (Firmware is deodexed and Xposed 4.2.2, some sort of AOSP-like Aliyun OS unfotunately)
The compass and the Gyroscope work perfectly well in the App "Z-DeviceTest" but not e.g. in GMaps (the arrow always points straight north) or other Gyroscope testing apps?? Even in MobileUncle no Gyroscope Data are available.
Anyone has an idea to fix this? The device has a magnetic compass for sure and other K1 owners report exactly the same behavior. So it must be something in the Software.
Please help!
iErp
bump
Noone got an idea? Am I posting in the wrong category for this?
Interesting thing I discovered, at least the compass is working in some apps but in others it doesn't.
The gyro doesn't show any sign of life although it is listed in the specs of the phone (like the compass) and appears in Z-DeviceTest.
All Kingzone K1 devices seem to have that problem.
Are there different methods to read the compass? Or is the gyro just mismapped as compass or something?
Apps working:
"Compass 360 Pro" https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.proapp.pro.app.compass&hl=de
Brothers "Compass" https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.brothers.compass
Google SkyMaps
Apps not working:
google Maps
c:geo (Geocaching app)
Gabenative "Compass" App https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.gn.android.compass
I also have the same issue which is really annoying. Sent an email to Kingzone but I've heard their support isn't too great. Anyone else with a K1 also able to confirm the gyro on their phone?
I am active in the German Forum chinamobiles.org. ANYONE with a K1 confirmed this.
I have the same here, works fine in the test app, but with other apps it doesn't
Noticed it the first time in gmaps and with camera app when taking a picture with multiple angels, normally when taken you can rotate the phone to rotate the picture.
Will be a fix for it soon, we just need to make sure they know about the problem.
I have the same issue. Did anyone resolve it yet? I don't think it actually works in the compass apps either. Its more orientation sensor than gyro....
