Well I'm not alone in XDA forums ¬¬U

1 user of HTCmania forum, 1 user of XDA-developers forum and me. 3 for the moment, it's posible that more people have this problem and don't know it.

"Test please"
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ryocoon:
I usually don't have any problem with the accelerometer, but I can confirm that the e-compass is wonky at best. Compared side by side (YES, _AFTER_ running some figure 8's) with other devices (Moto Droid, HTC Thunderbolt, an old Windows Mobile phone) the xPeria play is twitchy and often gives the wrong heading. I haven't been able to figure out what is causing it exactly though.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndroHero:
I just tried Z-device test and my accelerometer seems to be all over the place even if lying flat on the table.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LukStarkiller:
Same here, as I said I think it's because the sensor doesn't receive the correct current to work well and the result fluctuates :(
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LukStarkiller:
I took my phone to the vodafone store and reported as a faulty one, the employee tested 2 Xperia Plays more and they have the same problem. Confirmed that this problem isn't mine, clearest imposible.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LukStarkiller:
Another one confirmed on HTCmania forums (link)
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mekano:
Does this issue with accelerometer prevent the phone to switch correctly to landscape/portrait mode ?

And is it annoying with games such are Doodle Jump ?

I'd like to know because I'm getting the phone next week and it's always time to cancel my order if I find theses issues being real flaws to me (on the other hand i don't care about compass but I understand how irritating it can be..).
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hairdewx:
Sorry, but I found the dramatic music in the video to be hilarious :D
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ryocoon:
The e-compass is a bit different than the accelerometer. However, I've noticed the Accelerometer to be a bit twitchy. I can certainly play Doodle-Jump on my phone, but have to under-do my movements. I think this is mostly in relation to the e-compass, it does affect the accelerometer, but not in so nearly as dastardly a way. On the e-compass, it causes havoc and completely wrong headings.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LukStarkiller:
It's less acurate than other phones with worst quality, but works :rolleyes:
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mael5trom:
its certainly not ideal but my compass still points in roughly the correct direction, i might not trust it to go hiking with tho :p
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hairdewx:
I bet this will screw up my ghost radar app :p
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LukStarkiller:
I hope SonyEricsson can fix it via soft.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Wallrunner:
Just found this thread last night and wanted to report that I also have the same issues.

Verizon R800x I've owned for about two months, had the issue since activation (Didn't notice anything until after I activated it, though it was probably there)

Using a few different diagnostic applications I've seen the sensors output a consistent, constant reading between two extremes on all axis (X, Y and Z), any program that reads the compass will show a constant spinning.

This behavior makes any function that uses the accelerometer/compass absolutely useless, games like Doodle Lander, Backbreaker, etc (fully accelerometer reliant) are unplayable, Madden 12 isn't fun because "Shaking" (which this accelerometer is essentially doing) activates the "speed up" function causing the play select screen to be skipped. NFS Hot Pursuit is sickening because the camera tilts with the phone (Which assumes it is in a rocking state). Typing on the expanded keyboard is impossible, as the screen rotates back and forth every few seconds (This is also annoying in the Youtube app, making it difficult to read descriptions on videos).

The only solution I can offer, which only works for some rare instances, is sliding the gamepad out to force the screen to stay in the "turned 90 Degrees clockwise" position, and turning off "Auto Rotation" in the Display settings.

I haven't contacted Sony Ericsson or Verizon (other than talking briefly with a store rep) about this issue, but I would rather not trade in my phone as it has an unlocked bootloader (done before SE shut down the backdoor method used a few months ago), and it would be much more difficult to gain Root on a new one. :( I may not even be able to go through Verizon for a replacement, since I bought this phone from Wirefly.

I will be watching these forums (And I've already posted my own thread about this issue around a month ago), hoping for any breakthroughs or repairs for this issue :)

Edit: I've gone over the thread again, seems like my issue isn't exactly the same as yours (large, rapid movement of accelerometer rather than small, stable movements), but it seems like the same root problem, just mine is worse. :(
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] el_flema:
I have an Xperia X8 and the accelerometers works fine, but the compass not.

Google Skymap doesn't work because of the compass, when you turn around the screen does some strange movements.

What should we do ??

The compass seems to be broken, SE should fix this or give another phone to us.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] myplay:
i'm getting the same problem when i play some racing games, the car keeps leaning on the right...

i'm not sure if it is a hardware or software issue...

hopefully it is software issue or else sony should work or recalls :eek:

Accelerometer seems to work fine, but the compass is definitely a twitchy *****. Stock latest 2.3.4 rooted, bl unlocked, doom kernel.

Yep, was able to complete a round of speedx 3d with no issues, so accelerometer must be working fine.

But the compass...I guess Sony will have to do something about that, eh?
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheCraig:
If this problem is reported on CM7, Stock and others it must be a Hardware issue, If it is I think they can come up with a solution, Weird though.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LukStarkiller:
Sorry guys but SE answer me after several days that the phone works normally like this. :mad:

It seems that is a problem with the hard or the firm that they don't want to repair and they are ignoring it.

And yes the big problem is with the compass sensor :(

I reported it again with my other account to see if someone more patient than the last answer my report and give us one solution.

that sucks :(

[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Njord0:
Anymore news on this? My accelerometer seems OK, but the compass is like the OP's.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CZroe:
My guess is that this is why Sony removed the panoramic image capture feature they once listed as a selling point. I'm still not sure why they removed the screen capture function but that was still listed on the website last week so I'm still hoping it will return in an update.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] enerp8:
I downloaded the Photaf Panorama app from the market and I noticed that the stitched images had some problems. Here is an example:

I always thought that the problem was from the app but now I have some doubts, could this be originated by a faulty compass?
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Fußbodenheizung:
The accelerometer works fine, but the compass is twitchy on my R800i as well. I think it might be a broader problem than just Xperia Play. I've compared the compass with a friend of mine who uses an Xperia Arc and his was just as twitchy.

I think this could be worked around using software, because if you look at the values that the SE service test for compass gives without changing the position or direction of the phone, they keep switching between two or three numbers (For example: Pitch displays the following numbers: 1.3, 1.7, 2.1). If just the average was taken, it might appear smoother.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ptah26:
I own a Sony Xperia Arc S and, last night, using Google Sky Maps I realized that something happened with it because everywhere I looked to, it said it was North!!! Then, I downloaded a Compass app and I saw it wasn't working.I made "8" with it but nothing changed.

I have a Sony Xperia Arc S with Android ICS 4.0.3 (I'm going to update it to 4.0.4 right now). It's from Vodafone Spain.

In the afternoon, I will try it with my girlfriend mobile which is the same but it's still with Android GB 2.3.4.

Any info would be appreciated. Thanks!
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ptah26:
Hi,

Finally, I tested the compass in my girlfriend's mobile and it worked. Now, in my mobile, works. I made "8" with the device in a, let's say, more angry way.

Thanks!
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] metpink:
Hi there,

To brief the story:

Tried to upgrade my Rogers Captivate non-root Froyo to Gingerbread trough Kies the first attempt failed as after 30 min there was no progress on the installation bar, I disconnected the phone and restarted it, it booted up well and again I tried to upgrade. This time the bar filled up to 10% and then the screen on my phone went all Pink!! and the progress got stuck, then the phone was in semi-bricked state. I tried to flash back to 2.2 stock ROM on Odin 3 v1.82 the progress failed half way with a all purple screen (the green bar on Odin was almost at the beginning of the procedure). I thought to get it into DL mode once more to see if I could succeed but no DL mode anymore, all I get is random dots all over the screen!! and even when it gets connected on COM, ODIN cannot reach it anymore and it fails at Setup Connection. My belief is that my phone is bricked totally, but wanted to see if anybody on XDA has any thoughts for this.

Thanks for the help and time in advance.

Chrs.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] prbassplayer:
Sounds to me like a faulty connection. Try another USB port or another cable?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bulletproof1013:
Try heimdall..and another cable

Sent from my unbrickable cappy *bam*
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TRusselo:
your phone is not bricked. if it were bricked it would not turn on.

the pixilated screen means there is no params.lfs file on the phone anymore.

if you can get into download mode the phone can be saved.

try flashing the ATT one-click odin first... and rogers 2.2 after.

if still not working....

then i would try another USB cable, yours might have a bad connection.

next i would try another computer.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bulletproof1013:
If anyone know trussello does.

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] metpink:
Thank you guys for all the responses.

I guess I found the cure for it. I plugged the phone into the power and after a while (5 min or so) the screen turned all white (the same as all pink and all purple thing which if one notices can see the very blurry shade of the notification bar on top!). I turned it off and try the volume up and down DL mode method, it turned on in the same all white screen, I started the Odin and voila, it passed the setup connection step (cannot relate the connecting to the power with the resolution I got in any way!!!). I got the stock version back now wanna try to root and clean up the mess.

Chrs,
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] metpink:
BTW I am trying to update it to the most recent gingerbread version Rogers provided:

- in Kies it shows I-896!! although I used the Froyo stock version posted in Xda by TRusselo

- Therefore it doesn't recognize my phone and therefore I cannot flash the recent update

- does anyone have a stock version of the most recent 2.3.3 update handy?

another problem I got into is that I cannot browse all my media file in storage mode, out of 2000+ pictures it only browses 900 and even I cannot copy those as it seems unreachable

any suggestions/clues?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TRusselo:
the roger captivate IS the i896 the i897 is the att.

you may want to check out your csc version read here in this thread....http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=17835946#post17835946

trying the 2.1 (toronto) version couldnt hurt either
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] prbassplayer:
ATT is i897 Rogers is i896.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] metpink:
Yes, but as TRusselo pointed out the CSC is missing so that is why it just shows I896.

Before getting into fixing the CSC I need to copy all my gallery files. I can browse them on my cell and swipe through all in the gallery but cannot copy them through neither of the connection modes.

-For Kies Update and Media modes it takes ages to cache the images but it fails to get all of them and then even fails to copy

- mass storage only browse 900 out of 2000+ where I cannot copy them

any solution for this?

Thx for all the help. :)
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AdamOutler:
Trussello, a few things...

1. The guy who released that has 22 posts, no track record

2. That's a heimdall pacakge, not Odin

3. My one-click is much easier.

4. The only reason my package is tagged beta is because Heimdall is not fully operative for flashing PIT files. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1266172

[Motorola Droid Bionic] mistawolfe:
Uh oh :)

Deja vu. Not DeOdexed yet but I'll flash it after work. My favorite!
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Rockwell22:
Gonna go back to deodexed just for this theme excellent work
[Motorola Droid Bionic] allareconnected:
Wow, great theme... I went back to kejar's rom just for this and happy I did!
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Rockwell22:
Just installed great!
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Rockwell22:
Also swift key X goes great with this one light theme :-)
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Influxvisions:
How did you modify the phone.apk launcher icon? I try replacing it using ninjamorph but after reboot still the same, any Idea?
[Motorola Droid Bionic] mistawolfe:
Muff,

You should package those blue wallpapers as a standalone download as well.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Tommymac1039:
Is anyone working on quick settings in the pulldown notification bar? Or any cool lock screens
[Motorola Droid Bionic] TheMuffStuff:
Ill see what I can do about pulldown settings. :)
[Motorola Droid Bionic] s.dubs317:
Will this work on top of unl3ash3d?
[Motorola Droid Bionic] TheMuffStuff:
Im not sure how much the dev has done with that. Any features he included in his framework/systemui/other apps, will all be erased. If you want to test it, always do a nandroid backup beforehand, Its not meant for his rom, but it doesnt always mean it wont work.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] willbur73:
Love it so far. Is there an easy way to go back to stock btw? I have nandroids to flash but I'd love the flexibility to go back and forth. Im trying a bunch of themes... lol
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Nismo6921:
Well worth it...

I deodexed and then flashed this rom and it's simply perfect, I love the cyan color and the bootanimation is sick...it looks like the bionic eye under an x-ray great work developer thanks for a really cool rom!!!
[Motorola Droid Bionic] TheMuffStuff:
Im not a developer, Im a themer, I wish I was a dev, not smart enough for that though. But thanks :)

Willbur73: The easiest way is to just make a backup of stock deodexed, then check out themes, then just nandroid back to stock, or you could always just flash the rom again, not sure which is faster.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] TheMuffStuff:
Op updated with accurate battery style 1 and style 2, style 1 only reports 5% increments, Will update some other time.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] eighty1:
Yes it does
[Motorola Droid Bionic] frostincredible:
All I have to say is this is awesome. GREAT work.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] iasa15:
Just something to note. When using the stock messaging app and you open a conversation, then open settings within that conversation and press more, the font color is black along with the black background.

Probably the only thing I've noticed that is off on this theme. Great work otherwise!
[Motorola Droid Bionic] psufan5:
Settings menu in the default browser is solid black - cant read it... As well as some of the options in trillian.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] TheMuffStuff:
Because I have black popups I needed white text, I changed the primary white text, not sure about changing the secondary which is what u see when U press more, Ill have to look into it.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Brenardo:
Very nice work! Flashed over 1.3X (clear cache and Dalvik cache only) and looked good just not my color...

Awaiting impatiently for the red.

Would also love to see a dark "Crown Royal" purple or possibly a burnt orange.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] TheMuffStuff:
I will release this theme for Unleashed later today
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Rockwell22:
Nice! Cant wait
[Motorola Droid Bionic] dmbfan13:
Cool!! So if I have UNL3ASH3D V1.3 HYPSYS, I should have no problem installing this theme? Just clear cache and dalvik first.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] knokstudios:
yes, I flashed over every version of this rom and had no problems.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] dmbfan13:
Thanks! Just installed and it's looking great!! One last question. If I were to install the accurate battery, should I wipe cache and dalvik again??
[Motorola Droid Bionic] knokstudios:
I don't think you HAVE to. I never do it and don't have any problems. Its nothing major your flashing.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] frostincredible:
Are you going to be bringing this to Kejar and JRummy's Liberty ROM? It would look so awesome.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] pilotbluemike:
this is so nice.. def. the first very polished theme for the bionic IMO.. will be rocking this for a while! thanks and will report back if i find any bugs.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Versatile1:
Nice theme..
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Htimez2:
built for Unleashed V1.3?

Is the unleashed built zip that you have linked for the new unleashed V1.3 or for the original one they put out? Has anyone tried it on the new Unleashed V1.3?
[Motorola Droid Bionic] topxshelfxtre:
Just flashed over 1.3 I wiped cache and dalvik just in case and it works great really like the colors!!!!
[Motorola Droid Bionic] dmbfan13:
Is there any way we can get a 1% batter mod for accurate battery style 1? It seems its only in 5% increments.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Rockwell22:
Works great on unleashed 1.3 has anyone tried on 1.4
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Rockwell22:
Works great on unleashed 1.4!
[Motorola Droid Bionic] madkoda:
I only have one request..instead of the H for 4g can you make it the 4glte instead?
[Motorola Droid Bionic] NeoMagus:
Looks good on mine, H does turn to 4G only thing that looks odd when I start wifi the old icon pops up before it changes to the honeycomb looking one. Other than that looks really good had no problem applying it to stock rom and using the auto deodexer.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] TheMuffStuff:
Hit me up with some bug reports guys, I know the status bar is still a little blue that will be fixed, also the .zip I made for Unleashed was for 1.3 but It should still work on 1.4
[Motorola Droid Bionic] thecool07:
well i just flashed with the new liberty release and got a bootloop so i am in the process of restoring back to factory :(
[Motorola Droid Bionic] TheMuffStuff:
Should of backup'd with nandroid. I will make this work with liberty when it gets officially released.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] thecool07:
ya i figured.. haha i did is there a way to get back into recovery? and the theme looks real good man honestly i havent seenany bugs other than that pesky H icon
[Motorola Droid Bionic] NeoMagus:
Secondary options like previously mentioned in the browser and like if you hit options more in nesoid are black on black, and you've got to move the screen to try and read what it says. Battery icon didn't change to orange at 20-15%(think this may be intentional) and the stock wifi icon when you first turn it on were the only things I've noticed other than that I really like it
[Motorola Droid Bionic] TheMuffStuff:
Updated OP with red version for Unleashed 1.4
[Motorola Droid Bionic] madkoda:
LOVING the red theme!! it's wonderful!
[Motorola Droid Bionic] TheMuffStuff:
You have been hacked, so long muffstuff time for me too steal your thunder ;) <3
[Motorola Droid Bionic] TheMuffStuff:
Lol your giving winks and hearts so its probably one of you ****ers in the irc I joke around with, at least you dont mean no harm. :)
[Motorola Droid Bionic] jphillips.hd88:
Has anybody else notice battery drain after installing the unl3ash3d version? also is it just me or the the battery drop in 5% increments?
[Motorola Droid Bionic] TheMuffStuff:
The standard battery is 5% increments, It was made like 99=95 98=95 97=95 96=95 95=95 94=90, Thats how the battery was made, I didnt make the battery, I just changed some colors.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] jphillips.hd88:
i gotcha...thx for the reply
[Motorola Droid Bionic] twistedlim:
Finally a themer that does something with the power control widget. Nice work!
[Motorola Droid Bionic] TheMuffStuff:
No problem. :)
[Motorola Droid Bionic] mistawolfe:
Anyone tried this on Liberty? I might get daring and try it...
[Motorola Droid Bionic] TheMuffStuff:
Most likely will not work on liberty. Just wait for an official release. :)
[Motorola Droid Bionic] idefiler6:
I will say it again. This needs to be ported to GoLauncher!
[Motorola Droid Bionic] TheMuffStuff:
Figure out how to do it, and I will ;p
[Motorola Droid Bionic] jphillips.hd88:
First off, Thank You, I am loving this theme! I works perfect for me.

A couple of days ago, I had found a 1% battery mod that worked with this theme and put the Acc Bat #1 into 1% increments...I had to flash back to stock, and for the love of me I can't figure out which on I had working...

Does anyone know which one works? Thanks in advanced!
[Motorola Droid Bionic] darionlear:
can we get this in a blue or white color instead of cyan or red?
[Motorola Droid Bionic] TheMuffStuff:
No thanks on the blue, Cyan is blue enough, and white would be to plain. I think I might just keep the cyan and red.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] TheMuffStuff:
Working on a new update for this as we speak. Will get some real ICS Elements in here, most I can do without a system dump. :D
[Motorola Droid Bionic] TheMuffStuff:
OP Updated. You guys will like this. Report any bugs please.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] NeoMagus:
no support for stock deodexed rom this time around? screenshot looks good..
