I've tried everything in this thread and I still can't get google sky maps to tilt up, above the horizon. Anyone word on EB13 resolving this particular issue?

no matter what i do, pitch is never a positive value in sensordebug..
[Epic 4G General] murso74:
same with sky maps. only other problem i'm having after calibration with the exception of an occasional compass jitter
[Epic 4G General] tbob18:
I also have a problem with Sky Maps.. Pointing up will not register.
[Epic 4G General] anythingbutmine:
THANK YOUUUUUUUUUUUUU!!!!!!!!!!!!! :D

I was just about to return my phone for a replacement because I thought my compass hardware was broken, but no, I only needed to recalibrate my horizontal sensor upside down! Thank you SO much. You, sir, are a genius!
[Epic 4G General] tbob18:
This worked great for me!

Autorotate on/off made no difference for me, and I used Terminal Emulator instead and I calibrated right side up in the terminal.

And I used su /system/bin/sensorcalibutil_yamaha instead

I can now see the whole sky with Sky Maps, it is a bit jittery but it is usable.

Also in google maps/navigation it shows that I am pointing in the correct direction.
[Epic 4G General] Adam_v1:
OK, I just wanted to add a bit to this topic and some odd problems I have had with this.

I had had the not being able to view over the horizontal problem on two different phones and it was caused by using the sensorcalibutil_yamaha as they worked great before I ran it with the exception of major screen rotation lag on various FroYo ROMs.

The problem I had is while I would be able to calibrate the sensor I would get out puts like this every time (minor changes between runs but not by much):

G-Sensor's fine offset [13][-47][8192]... OK

Trying a upside down calibration would get me:

G-Sensor's fine offset [-64][16][12272]... OK

So that was obviously not the fix either. The first one would give me Z values from -10 (laying flat, screen up) to 0 (phone vertical) in Sensor Debug and the upside down one would give me values from -20 (flat, screen up) to -10 (vertical) so obviously somehow its like I'm missing half the sensor output as the rest of the sensors go from -10 to +10 as you move the phone through the full range of an axis but the Z axis is limited to just showing flat to vertical and the numbers just stop at the range like they do the horizon in Google Sky Map.

So just for the hell of it I decided to pull ms3c_yamaha.cfg off the phone and look at the values in it with "adb pull /data/system/ms3c_yamaha.cfg test.txt" and I get this:

0,13,-47,8192,22,25,12,-100,35,69,3,

So I chop the 8192 down to 192 and push the file back with "adb push test.txt /data/system/ms3c_yamaha.cfg" and now the Z axis in sensor debug actually goes from -10 to +10! Great!

But not all problems are solved yet because my roll wont go over +-45% for some reason meaning Sky Map still isn't working right so I go into Settings->Display->Horizontal Calibration and run that UPSIDE DOWN and now every sensor is working perfectly with full range of motion, Sky Map is working great and screen rotation is down to taking about half a second instead of two or so before I started this whole thing the first time.

So its a long and convoluted process but it worked for me and I just though I would share as this is a frustrating problem I have been living with ever since my first DK28 ROM and could never find a good solution until I finally chased it down tonight.
[Epic 4G General] 00dwan:
Adam_v1, Thank you!!!!!!

I've tried everything on this thread and on every other thread about fixing the calibration but NOTHING worked since Froyo until I tried your method! Why the hell is there an 8 there? LOL! Anyway, I had just about given up, hoping there'd be a fix in the next release or whatnot, but now it works! This was the last major thing bugging me about my phone. Thanks again!
[Epic 4G General] rando991:
BINGO Dude! Fixed mine too. I noticed that Sensor Debug showed me flat and level at -178 pitch, but after your procedure it's more like 0
[Epic 4G General] herzzreh:
Interesting.

My roll, pitch and yaw are fine but... magnenometer is jumpy as hell. Any way to calibrate that?
[Epic 4G General] bjhill2112:
I have a ton of issues with mine as well. Always getting messed up. Try GPS Status. It has a calibrate tool. Funny thing is - my GPS won't work for **** when this happens. I calibrate the compass and immediately start getting satellite locks.
[Epic 4G General] murso74:
still can't go above the horizon line in skymaps with EC05
[Epic 4G General] herzzreh:
Hardware is so screwed on this phone.
[Epic 4G General] murso74:
can't be the hardware... worked in Eclair
[Epic 4G General] 00dwan:
Have you tried adam_v1's method above? All I did was delete the "8" from the config file. Only fix that worked for me...
[Epic 4G General] murso74:
i'll try it once i can figure out how to pull the config file off the phone lol
[Epic 4G General] Adam_v1:
Its really not that hard if you have used ADB before, just type in the following to pull the file off the device so you can edit it:

adb pull /data/system/ms3c_yamaha.cfg test.txt

Open the file in notepad and try deleting any extra wacky digits if you have a variable calibrating into the thousands (for example my Z axis had a calibration offset of 8192, I deleted the 8 off of it) then save the file and type the following into your command window:

adb push test.txt /data/system/ms3c_yamaha.cfg

And that should be it for the ADB stuff, after that you will probably need to do the horizontal calibration in Settings > Display with the phone upside down.
[Epic 4G General] DroidApprentice:
I recently updated to EC05 and only remembered once my auto-rotate started failing that there was an upside-down calibration technique. I did it in settings, then all seemed fine, but I still get vibrating weirdness on Google Sky maps (although I can point it up OK); I really don't understand many of the settings in that program and wonder if I borked something while experimenting.

I have a bubble level program that for some reason "forgets" the calibration for leveling and doesn't auto-rotate for edge leveling so I have to redo it. EDIT TO ADD: uninstalling and reinstalling fixed this app - simple really, it was probably remembering config info from Eclair. What actually clued me into the upside-down-ness was a dice-rolling program that has the dice "pressed" against the display glass if you hold it upside down, but was doing that while facing down as well.

The magnetometer in the compass app I downloaded seems mostly happy and accurate once upside-down calibration happened, and GPS is better in EC05 for sure. But I really think some poster on here was right--for some reason if you flash a new ROM and the phone ISN'T upside down when you do it it makes the phone magnetometer and accelerometer go wacky. I hope I don't have to do any more esoteric tweaks but at least the methods are here.
[Epic 4G General] rcastel2:
I also tried the su in android terminal emulator method and it worked for me, no lag at all.

Typed "su"

then typed "/system/bin/sensorcalibutil_yamaha" and enter

asked me to move the phone horizontally and enter

Voila...Worked
[Epic 4G General] eljefe33:
Sky Orentation Fixed on Epic 4G

Today I was able to get this working by using various suggestions from this thread...and it ALL works, Sky, Maps, fast orientation changes, etc! I have a rooted Epic 4g running Froyo EC05 and was having the same issues you described with Sky until now. Here is what I wound up doing:

1. Using a terminal client (Jack Palevich) I removed/backed up the yahama config file. It will be recreated automatically when you recalibrate so no worries.

su
mv /data/system/ms3c_yamaha.cfg /data/system/ms3c_yamaha.cfg.bak

2. Hit the back button until you exit the terminal client and power off/power on.

3. After reboot, calibrate using GPS Status & Toolbox (EclipSim). Menu>Tools>Calibrate pitch and roll. With the phone on its back, face up, hit the 'calibrate' button. Then flip the phone 180 degrees (still face up, but now the display will be upside down) and rerun Calibrate pitch and roll but this time hit Average.

4. Hit the back button until you exit the GPS Status app and power off/power on again. Done!

Here is what this did for my Epic:

Prior to the removal of my /data/system/ms3c_yamaha.cfg, I noted that it had the following values, although I am not sure what they correspond to:

0,34,69,8160,17,14,16,-25,278,-172,3,

After completing the steps above, the newly created ms3c_yamaha.cfg contained these values:

0,0,0,0,18,14,16,-39,31,-218,3,

That is a HUGE difference and led me to believe perhaps another tool populates the first 4 values, but that's just a guess. The other numbers are pretty much close to what I had prior, except for the 9th one.

I failed to make note of my exact readings from the sensor test (via *#0*# from the phone dialer) before the change, but I recall that the Z axis zeroed out when holding the phone the way you would if you were taking a picture, but it never changed the higher up I pointed the phone. It would reach something in the 600's when I pointed it down though!

When I ran the sensor test afterwards, I was able to get the below max/min values on each axis:

X ranges between -240 to +216
Y ranges between -216 to +216
Z ranges between -240 to +216

Just keep the screen facing you and stand the phone up straight on each of its four sides for X and Y. For Z, hold it so you are looking straight up at it (camera lens pointing at the ceiling) and again when looking straight down (camera pointing to the floor).

I hope I didn't dumb this down too much, but just coming over from webOS a few weeks ago, I find the more info the better when coming up to speed on a new OS!

Thanks to everyone for posting all the great info in this forum and I hope this gives a little back!

Of course post experience compared to my Toshiba edition, so we know if its worth using or just maybe, the fact that our Toshiba edition is actually is quite good..
[Folio 100 Android Development] bigbbl:
Seriously I love it, it's running perfectly great:

-notification bar and setting are just awesome..

-wifi working great for me

-memory usage is good

-battery and standby I'll check tomorrow after night testing

-SDCard works great even with toshiba file manager (used titanium backup to install back my apps)

-new home also great but less responsive

-launcherpro or adw.launcher both works great but "setting" doesn't work since it's using new setting app

-Browser and mail client looks great

Still some bugs:

-No 360° rotation - Sorry 360° works great but doesn't work with home default launcher

-Only english (us & uk), more local 2 don't change a lot

-Taskmanager doesn't work

well this is my feedback after few minutes testing :)

After updating to version 0.4 do i need to install again the sound fix patch?
[Folio 100 Android Development] metuskale:
I, i think that your backup problem is that your are not really saving it into the SDCard but into a folder named SDCard, if you look which files are REALLY in your sdcard (for example browsing with windows) you will notice that files that you see browsing from your tablet are not the same.

I really think this is the problem.

Hi, I dont know why happens this to the home button. I also have found this thing missis, there is no way (without any 3rd party software) to access last opened applications BUT there are some apps in the market that let you do this, for example:

quickswitch (free)

visual task switcher (free with adds)

Hope you enjoy ; )
[Folio 100 Android Development] Dexter_nlb:
lets just be happy that although Toshiba looked to do a really bad job, others succeeded maybe in making the userinterface even worse, when you actually use it for more days.. Tnt interface looks good, but some vital functions are missing.

- Accounts/Sync setup

- Text2Speed support

- Keyboard installation
[Folio 100 Android Development] metuskale:
yes but is not too important for me, many of missing features can be replaced using 3rd party software XD.

i found that :

Q: I have installed CifsManager but launching the app fails with something like "Application not installed on your phone"

Is that possible to update the launcher in the next version ?

Thank you.
[Folio 100 Android Development] Dexter_nlb:
launcher app is made by the Vendor of the tablet or least firmware producer, ie. Toshiba, Viewsonic or Malata... so no , only those guys can fix their issue with regular launcher..

but, LauncherPRO is a public available Market download, and you can use that one and it works..

v0.4a patch update *IMPORTANT*

if you installed the previous update, this update is highly recommended as a bug in the fs optimization is found and can cause the folio to corrupt filesystem, if it crashes. so install this and you're safe.

See post #1 for details.
[Folio 100 Android Development] julio77:
I've found a way to access Accounts Sync and Keyboard installation.

first, Accounts Sync :

- you must install LauncherPro even if you do not use it.

- On the desktop, add a new shortcut, select "Activities".

- Under "Account Settings and Sync" select "com.android.settings.ManageAccountsSettings.

Well, now you have a shortcut on the desktop to access the sync settings.

Keyboard installation :

After installing your alternative keyboard, copy the APK from /data/app/ to /system/app/

I create a simple script (in Gscript) that mount the file system as read/write , copy the APK, and enable the "SmartKeyboardPro" keyboard (after reboot).

code :

su
mount -o remount,rw /dev/block/mmcblk0p1 /system
cp /data/app/net.cdeguet.smartkeyboardpro-1.apk /system/app/

reboot

Now I have a black screen for about 20 minutes now, but I don`t see anything happen. Backlight is a little lid so it looks kinda grey.

any idea?

Thnx!
