Hi! I'd like to know which applications can exploit the galaxy s gyroscope (or better 6 axis accelerometer). Not the applications that requires normal (3 axis) accelerometer, but only the gyroscope. Are there any games/applications that really use this new technology or at present gyroscope is nothing more than a normal accelerometer? Thank you very much!
Bump. Does the galaxy s even have a gyroscope?

No. Only U.S.A. variants have it.

Just seen this website that has a really cool app for the iPhone
http://dynolicious.com/index.html
It's basically an Acceleration Tracking device using the accelerometer in iPhone. Would this sort of software be possible on the Diamond?
Thats looks good, however im not sure how accurate it would be, as its probably using the GPS to measure speeds which only update once a second.
On the iPhone it uses the accelerometer, not the GPS.
However the Diamond doesn't have an accelerometer, only a gravity sensor so I don't think it could be possible.

Actually - I think that you'll find that the Diamond does have an accelerometer?

A gravity sensor is an accelerometer but an accelerometer is not a gravity sensor..
The Lightsaber app clearly demonstrates that the Diamond has an accelerometer. The only thing an accelerometer does is measure G-forces, so if you hold it still, it will measure only one: gravity. That's probably why you're confused.
So you think that the G-Sensor inside the Diamond can be as accurate as a real accelerometer ?
Shaking Head...... Sigh......!

If want something like this... using the GPS in the Diamond use : GPS Performance ... works very well... Tested by me
Ha Ha Ha. You beat me to the thread. I was thinking of posting a thread about this. It looks like a very cool program to have.
Hi. I recently discovered some software based features that devices similar to ours (Nexus 4, Nexus 5) have. One of them is called Photo Sphere, and it comes with Nexus 5, as well as some other kit kat devices. You can see this camera feature in action on the video below:
The other feature I adored is Dual Camera Recording. This feature is supported by devices such as Optimus G Pro and Galaxy S4. You can see this feature in action here:
My question is: Can we somehow use any of these features in our device, either by an app or a firmware update(to kit kat)?
If no, what is the limitation?
If yes, how can I do it?
I'm currently on Vanir Nightly 27/11/13 and iodak v8 (repack 4.3.1)
For photosphere, search for 4.3 nexus 4 photosphere app, just instqll it like normal app and it will work. No dual camera as of yet afaik

ok, thanks. Do you think it's a hardware limitation? (I'm talking about the dual camera)

doubt it is, tbh, but it may be ^^
i was wondering if there is any way to port the camera from Note 4 or Z3 to Moto Maxx.
thanks
Two words: DRM keys (for Sony camera app)
And Note 4 have a different sensor.
Forget it.

well at least a port from a decent phone camera
Forget that, wait for Lollipop and use a app with camera api2 will ve better than any sony/Samsung.

UPDATE: Based on below responses, it has an emulated/pseudo 'AK09918' gyroscope, instead of a real hardware sensor.
Anybody who actually has the physical device with them, can you please confirm if the V11 Pro has a gyroscope sensor? It is not mentioned in GSMArena, and the sensor is missing on the V11 Pro website as well: https://www.vivo.com/in/products/v11pro
You can check using this app (or any other suitable app) and send screenshots to help everyone.

Yes it does have gyroscope. Tested out on the app mentioned. Sorry but for some reason couldn't upload screenshots, as getting "bad request" error on xda app.
Psedu gyroscop? What does iy mean? Ist half gyro or fake gyro or what? What does Psedu gyroscop mean?
Screenshot uploaded for u. Now give us its gyro information too. Lolz

Ok. This means there is not a real gyroscope sensor. Changes in angular rotation are approximately measured using a combination of accelerometer and magnetometer. Probably why the resolution on your screenshot shows only as 0.1.
My current phone (Xiaomi) shows a BOSCH gyro unit with a resolution of 0.000532.

Here's a list of sensors available
Sent from my vivo 1804 using XDA Labs
Hello I am wondering if mi a2 has a step sensor. If somebody has the phone but is unsure, you can check all the devices sensor with this app called sensors list(can't link it cuz i have new acc) , thanks in advance guys

There is no step counter sensor like that and that app won't display it. On the other hand, such a sensor is not needed because Snapdragon's Hexagon DSP present in Snapdragon 660 is always on and used for that.

Thanks, is there any information about using hexagon as pedometer, beacuse I am making pedometer app for my last year in high school.

Should be in the Android API. Google Fit uses it.
Edit: Maybe start here, and here's an example of how to get it done
ayy thanks, step counter is apparently a "virtual" sensor in hexagon, once again thanks for help :good:
