[Q] Compass - axes inverted - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello, looking for help.
Application "Compass" and "AndroSensor" show that axes "X" and "Z" are inverted.
To change the phone's location added (subtracted) opposite values.
The axes are not swapped, but their values ​​counted backwards.
Tilting the phone left, "Z" axis values "-".
Tilting the phone right, "Z" axis values "+".
Rotation the phone left, "X" axis values "+"
Rotation the phone right, "X" axis values "-"
Behave opposite.
There are settings for axes?
Where is it found?
How to make changes?

[Q] GT-I5500 Accelerometer calibration

Hi,
I have a rooted Samsung GT-I5500 phone with stock Android 2.2, unfortunately the g-sensor is always reporting incorrect values for the Z axis.
That is when the phone is placed horizontally I get values of about 1.2G on the Z axis, while when the phone in standing vertically or in landscape mode I get values of 1G on the X or Y axes (as they should).
This causes applications to think the phone is being moved, for example in "GPS Status" I costantly see the acceleration value being around 0.2 even if the phone is not moving.
Moreover there is no calibration option under display settings and the procedure described here (for another model): http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=6999499&postcount=8
cannot be applied because /system/bin/sensorcalibutil_yamaha is missing.
Can someone kindly help me?
Thank you

[Q] G-sensor question

Hello,
I have ZTE V967S and annoying problem with the g sensor. I installed live wallpaper that simulates parallax effect but it is not working properly. Even when the phone is placed on the table it is moving like I am shaking the phone. I installed some sensor test app and it is showing constant change in the xyz values under accelerometer tab. I am with custom rom but with the stock was the same. My question is is there a way to calibrate it or lower its sensitivity. I am sorry, english is not my native language and I am writhing from my phone. so

[Q] Orientation sensor wrong direction

Hi,
I have got a noname Android tablet (Rockchip 29xx based), which has an orientation sensor with 90 degrees skewed directions. This means if i turn the tablet in landscape orientation, the picture on LCD turns portrait orientation.
I have replaced the mainboard of the tablet, but the new one came from the same type and has the same version. As i remember, at the first use it had a correct orientation, and i have no idea how it changed (i gave the tablet to a friend temporarily).
Is there any way to correct the 90 degree skew? From build.prop or sensor kernel module parameter, or similar...?
Thanks for any help

Accelerometer off by 26° on X axis

Hi,
I just bought a chinese tablet BS109 from Aliexpress, for the price the tablet is really an excellent value.
However, I have a big annoyance with it:
The G-Sensor is off by 26° on X axis (and 7° on Y axis).
However, it seems accurate (gives the same values for the same position). It's just like if the component would have been bent on the motherboard.
I don't need accuracy on the G-Sensor, but this has 2 nasty effects:
- When in landscape mode, it won't switch to portrait mode without flipping it right by at least 25°
- It's impossible to keep a portrait mode when lying on a table. (Except by locking to portrait mode). It will return to landscape mode as soon as the tablet approach the horizontal lying position.
The "recalibration" tools did not help. (GPS Status or Clinometer for instance)
There is no settings menu for this sensor.
My questions:
- How can we fix such a huge miscalibration?
- Can a calibration fix such a difference?
- Should I consider a Hardware problem? In this case, could it be that the sensor is not properly placed on the motherboard, and that we could fix it by opening the tablet?
Thanks,

Light sensor and calibration not working

Hello!
I have rooted chinese Conquest S8 (MTK chip, Droid 5.1) phone in one year. After half year not working proximity sensor, used recalibration soft (Proximity Sensor Reset), reboot, work again... reboot and not working again (Proximity Sensor Reset say after boot: settings loaded... and not loaded). Run again, reboot, working again to first reboot.
This problem 50% be settled.
Big problem: Light sensor reset/calibration not working with any soft.
Light sensor still in 125 lx.
MTK engineering mode (see attachement):
PS Calibration
Infos:
PS: -1
Threshold High: 0
Threshold Low: 0
calculate failed (back button --> engineering mode crashed)
Change threshold menu:
set any number (0-65535) and set button --> "Set threshold failed" popup message
PS Data collection: always still -1
How to write manually good (default) rate in settings file? Which this file (proximity, light sensor information file)?
Factory reset not good method, too much settings loss.
Any method (text edit the configuration file or software automatic repair)??? (Quick Tune-Up Pro not repaired this problem.)
Thanks!
Thread closed as per OP's request.
