| 3 | The compass sensor is calculated from both the accelerometer and magnetic field sensors, which needs calibration to be accurate. |
||
| 4 | If the values reported by the compass sensor are not right, you can recalibrate the magnetic field sensor with the following steps: |
||
| 5 | |||
| 6 | # adb shell stop zygote |
||
| 7 | # adb shell rm /data/misc/akfs.txt |
||
| 8 | # adb shell start zygote |
||
| 9 | |||
| 10 | Then start an application using the compass sensor and move the device in every direction, with a rotation around each axis: the device should now be calibrated. |
