There's a way, but it's not straightforward. I also had a calibration problem with my phone's accelerometer and this was how I fixed it.

In /efs there's a file called calibration_data. This contains the calibration data for the accelerometer. It's a binary file so you need to edit in in a hex editor. Screenshot shows content of mine.

As you can see, there are 3 values in the first, third and fifth bytes respectively. Each corresponds to calibration offset value for one axis. However, it's been such a long time ago since I edited this file, so I don't remember which is which. If you want to edit this file, you'll need to do it by trial and error. What makes it harder is that the calibration will only take effect after a reboot, so you'll need to do several reboots before getting it just right.

Regretfully I didn't find any easier way to perform the calibration. A word of caution, though, the /efs partition contains some critical files, so don't go messing around with the other files in it unless you know what you're doing.

How about the google map compass issue

I did not have this issue with the stock gingerbread before. I encountered this issue when I upgraded to cyanogen 9 and 10. (Did not try any other rom)

There is also no calibration option for the compass ( or maybe I just don't know how)
[Galaxy S II I9100G Android Development] Ryuinferno:
There is no option for that... just try the waving method...no harm right? ;)
[Galaxy S II I9100G Android Development] Jiangyi:
You can always flash back to stock ICS, calibrate, see if it's good, and then flash CM10 again.

Google Maps compass problem

Hello everyone

I have an issue to report. It has been reported in the past but I think I have a little more accuracy on the situation.

The Google Maps is off.

Symptoms:

- When you turn on Google Maps and the GPS, the arrow will appear, but point to the north.

- If you move, it will move with you, but will be off.

- If you use another maps app (MapQuest, Sygic) everything is fine.

- If you use a GPS status app (GPS Status, etc) everything is fine.

- If you use the GPS app to find north, then open Google Maps, it will react correctly. However, as soon as you turn your screen off and back on, the compass in Google Maps will automatically go back to north.

The issue is specific to the i9100g and is caused by Google Maps only.

Is there a way to fix this? Why does it affect only the i9100g? How can we force Google Maps to check the compass, not just the accelerometers?

EDIT:

- I also tried older Maps versions (namely 6.9.1 and 6.10.0) and it does the same thing.

- I was wondering if CM9 users had the same problem? I don't really feel like downgrading but if no one does, I probably will test it.

I have found a temporary solution:

http://www.devitrianto.com/2012/09/21/google-maps-6-12-0-v6-12-0-apk-mod-world-navigation-activated/

It works very well. I used the CWM-flashable download.

Please let us know if anything can be done to get it to work with the official Google Maps!

EDIT: it works, but the compass moves extremely slowly after the initial (correct) setup.

GoogleApps...

As far as I know, the GoogleApps are now included in the latest nightly, or? So it isn't necessary anymore to flash the gapps after flashing the rom? But which version is included in the rom? Is it the latest 2012-10-11 ? Or still the old one from 2012-07-26 ?
[Galaxy S II I9100G Android Development] DenisGuy:
Gapps is not included with the nightlies. Neither of the 2 versions you're talking about work. No, it's not necessary to flash the gapps after updating a nightly. However, it is necessary to flash gapps if you're coming from stock.
[Galaxy S II I9100G Android Development] katsooba:
Hi guys, i too had the gps problem only on google maps.

Couldbt even get a location fix, not talking even about accelrometers or such.

And now i fixed it.

Download gps aids free from market

Setup as galaxy s2

Check disallow multiple ntp servers in perferences

Choose your local ntp server

nake sure antena is on and hit download xtra data

Even if it wont finish downloading, just allow its root access

And restart maps

Did the trick for me

All is good:)

Try install "compass" apps from play store..

I did read before about three-axis technique..

1- Spin phone 3 times by laying down with face up in flat surface.

2- Standing up phone and rotate 3 times.

3- On one side, rotate 3 times.

DO NOT try to calibrate the compass at magnetic area. Also, in a car or near vehicle with engine is running..

Hope this may help you.
[Galaxy S II I9100G Android Development] DenisGuy:
The issue is not with the compass, not with the calibration with the compass nor with the accelerometer. Calibrating the compass and checking the results using a compass app is a good thing but wont solve the Google Maps issue. The issue is with this version of Google Maps.

---------- Post added at 07:39 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:37 AM ----------

What are the symptoms? Does the blue arrow appear, pointing to north, when you get a GPS lock in Google Maps? Does it turn with you when you rotate left or right? You might be having a different issue.

[Galaxy S II I9100G Android Development] rskyline:

[Galaxy S II I9100G Android Development] Jiangyi:
No, I am far from one. However, I have used CM for a very long time, being one of the testers when CM9 was still very unstable. From then on, I started doing Simplified Chinese translations for CM, and little by little, I tried to contribute to cleanups and minor bug fixes on CM gerrit. As a guy who still has very little coding experience, it just goes to show you that really anyone can contribute to this wonderful project. :)

Also, hanging around on #teamhacksung-support certainly helped me learn a lot about various Android-related things, and the guys there are great. (Unless you're an uber-noob or if you ping codeworkx, then you might get kicked, :P)

All in all, I have code to thank for everything. Had it not been for him, none of these wacky shenanigans would've came into my life, and boy, wouldn't that have been boring. ;)

I have two problems with the current (and some of the previous builds):

1) GPS - It's next to useless. Ever since I moved from CM9 to CM10 (maybe even on CM9, however I'm not sure) gps test sees 7-8 satellites, depending on the time of day, but is unable to use any of them. Same thing with iGO, google maps, etc.

I tried the GPS fix, didn't work. Tried GPS Aids and my phone barely saw 1 or 2 satellites. Flashed the latest nightly and things are now back to seeing 7-8 satellites but none of them are being used to pinpoint my location, and the signal isn't even bad, upper 30 for 2-3 satellites (just tested).

Any ideas?

2)Gallery - for some reason, thumbnails have went full retard - it shows one picture, yet when I open it, "square by square" it changes to another picture. This happened first in 5. XI 2012. nightly, and is still present in 10. XI 2012. nightly. It is seriously annoying because I can't find the picture I'm looking for easily, and am forced to scroll through hundreds of pictures looking for just that one.

Help?

The compass issue in Google Maps is still not resolved.

Google has updated Maps but they haven't changed the way the arrow reacts to the accelerometer vs the compass.

The accelerometer calibration has been added to CM10, but this option was already part of the GPS Status app and has no effect on the issue we're experiencing.

Does anybody have any clues or solutions?

[Galaxy S II I9100G Android Development] 301stSpartan:
Basically it's just an analysis tool to determine what is keeping your phone awake. Looking at your screen shot though, your phone wasn't awake all that often so I'm not sure how much this will help...

Basically in BetterBatteryStats, you select a reference point in time (example since it was last plugged in) and look at the kernel wakelocks and partial wakelocks to see what processes were keeping your phone awake during that time. Then use Google to learn what these processes are. Then use Google to find a way to solve them staying awake too much.

Basically BBS will point you to things keeping your phone awake but won't directly fix anything. Just an analysis tool.
