HTC Incredible :: Compass Flakey
Jul 28, 2010In the last few weeks my compass has needed constant recalibration. Whenever I open my compass app, it says 'abnormal field', I calibrate, and it lasts for about five minutes. Google Sky Map is pretty much useless as well as compass mode in Street View.

Nov 27, 2013I have done many of reverse engineering for other electronics in the past, Since Im new to android I was wondering before even wasting my time if is possible to port, or built a rom from sources or a phone thatis NOT External SD built in to a phone that it have the external sd built in.
Making it short can I try to reverse engineer the android code from a Nexus 5 (no ext_sd) to other device that have ext_sd built in?
If is possible where should I be looking to start trying making some development on this as I haven't done nothing close quite.

HTC Incredible :: Way To Force Particular Applications To Use Built In 8GB Of Phone Storage?
Jul 7, 2010Is there a way to force particular applications to use the built in 8GB of phone storage? For example, doubletwist automatically syncs to the SD card, ROM Manager saves backups to the SD Card, etc.I find that I have used basically none of my internal memory because nothing recognizes its there in the first place. Is there a custom ROM that allows this? I know it is supposed to be a feature of Froyo, but it seems kind of silly that it doesn't already work or that there wouldn't be a root method to make it work.

Sep 24, 2010my wife wants a compass app on her phone (I think this is so she knows which way to walk to the most expensive shops, and becuase her friends with iPhones have them ).... as it appears that there is not one on the SGS, can anyone reccommend the best one to download? I presume that they are all as accurate as each other, but are there any that have any nice additional features?

Mar 6, 2010I noticed that when I am lookinh at google map (satellite or normal), when I turn the phone the map will not stay to point to the same direction. It turns with the phone. Is this the way it should be?
I also downloaded the Compass application. and it behaves kind of wierd: holding the phone horizonally, I turn around. The compass should keep pointing to the north regardless how I turn. Mine is all over the place. If I point the phone to NE, it does show the N direction but when I try to turn the phone to point to the North it goes all over the place.
This is regardless GPS on or off. I am still at 1.5...
HTC Legend :: Digital Compass
Jul 22, 2010It's listed in all the specs I've seen on multiple sites, including on the official home page for the Legend: HTC - Products - HTC Legend - Specification
But for the life of me, I can't find it on my phone. It's definitely not listed under Programs. Does anyone have a clue? Where could it have gone if it's a default, built-in feature? Pardon my ignorance but this is the first smartphone that I've used and I was keen on using this feature to impress friends...
HTC Legend :: Compass And AR Applications
Apr 25, 2010Just got my legend this friday and very happy about it until now.
I have some trouble with apps using the compass though:
When the Legend lies flat on a table there is no problem in finding North and South. When I turn the phone the compass needle stays. (Using the Compass app from the Market). But when I pick up the phone and hold it vertical (this is required for most Augmented Reality applications) it only points at South. And it's very annoying.
This happens with Google Street View Compass mode, Layar, Google Sky Map and the Compass application. I haven't tried other programs.
So is there something wrong or does something need calibration?
What I have tried till now:
- Waved the phone in an 8 shape for a while.
- Calibrated the G-Sensors.
- Tried in different locations making sure nothing magnetic is near by.
- Tried tipping the back of the phone.

Aug 22, 2010First day or two Google Sky worked fine, but I realized yesterday Google Sky didn't want to move left/right from holding the phone sideways but would move up/down. I found if I gave is a good shake left/right it would work right as far as I could tell. I checked around for what it might be and saw it could be a problem with the magnetic sensor. I tried the compass app and I get a "abnormal magnetic field detected" message right away. Should I return this or maybe reset some sort of setting or is there another way to calibrate?
View 5 Replies View RelatedSamsung Fascinate :: Compass Does Not Work
Sep 27, 2010I returned my first Fascinate due to it kept complaining the memory card was not plugged in. Would have to pop off the back of the phone off and remove then reinsert it to get it online again to use camera. Had to pay for an advanced replacement tell they get the old one back. Ugh. Well the replacement I just got does not do this but the compass does not work on it. I downloaded a compass app and it keeps saying abnormal readings and I need to recalibrate but no avail. My previous Fascinate seemed to have a working compass. Did I get a second defective phone?

Sep 3, 2010In addition to the accuracy problem, the compass on my Epic seems to be really out of whack. It doesn't maintain a consistent reading (it jitters quite a bit) and has a difficult time finding North. I've seen this behavior exhibit itself in the GPS Test application and Google Maps. I loaded GPS Test on my girlfriends HTC Eris and her compass is accurate and a lot less jittery

View 5 Replies View RelatedAndroid :: Getting Compass Values And Use It On Map Overlay
Sep 13, 2010I have a marker on the map using an Overlay. I also have access to the compass sensor which I'm able to show a textView with the orientation values (0 to 359). How can I apply this values to the marker? (which is a drawable). I already have a MAtrix created but when I insert the orientation value gives me an error, here it is:
GeoPoint geopoint = new GeoPoint((int) (newLocation.getLatitude() * 1E6),
(int) (newLocation.getLongitude() * 1E6)); Paint paint = new Paint();
Point pt = new Point(); mapView.getProjection().toPixels(geopoint, pt);
Bitmap bmp = BitmapFactory.decodeResource(getResources(),R.drawable.user2);
Matrix matrix = new Matrix(); matrix.postTranslate(-25, -25);
matrix.postRotate(direction); matrix.postTranslate(pt.x, pt.y);
paint.setAntiAlias(true); paint.setFilterBitmap(true);
int width = bmp.getWidth(); int height = bmp.getHeight();
Bitmap changedBitmap = Bitmap.createBitmap(bmp, 0, 0, width, height, matrix, true);
BitmapDrawable icon = new BitmapDrawable(changedBitmap);
icon.setBounds(0, 0, icon.getIntrinsicWidth(), icon.getIntrinsicHeight());
userOverlay useroverlay = new userOverlay(icon); useroverlay.addItem(item);
mapView.getOverlays().add(useroverlay);
I used the value retrieved from the sensor on "direction" but it doesn't work.
Android :: Bad Compass And Sensor Data
Jul 22, 2009Am researching a problem with compass and sensor values returned by the phone. I found this thread: http://groups.google.com/group/android-developers/browse_thread/threa. Which seems related, but it's old so I'm starting a new one. I'm getting stuck values from both the compass and orientation sensors. It was fine yesterday, but today, I'm only getting values in a limited range (e.g. compass headings from 240 - 290), no matter how I orient the device. What's even more odd is that the radians returned from the call to Sensor Manager.get Orientation(), which returns radians, is giving consistently out of range values. Anyone see this same behavior, and if so, any fixes? Here's some sample sensor data. Format is heading, pitch, roll. The first set contains raw values, the second set contains values after I've applied the orientation matrix generated by the Sensor Manager. The third set contains values after I've smoothed the data with my own algorithm.
