[Q] Hao to calibrate accelerometer... - LG Optimus Black

Hi,
using the app GPS Status, in addition to gps info, it shows data relating the inclination of both axis.
Using it, i've seen that it isn't calibrated... when it is completely horizontal, the app shows a certain value, and the orange ellipse isn't on the centre... in order to get the zero reading (ellipse on the centre) I have to inclinate the mobile a little to the left side.
Hoq can I calibrate it?
Regards.

Well, it seems to be fine right now... i don't know.
Anyway, it would be interesting to know how to calibrate it, or at least a way to check it.

hy, u can calibrate it if u have acces to hidden menu. To activate you need to create a shortcut to this hidden menu. You can do this with most replacement launchers and apps like BetterCut.
Example using LauncherPro (others will use a similar method):
1.Long press on home screen
2.Select Shortcuts
3.Select Activities
4.Scroll down to and expand com.lge.hiddenmenu
5.Select HiddenMenu (first entry)
6.Enter Shortcut name
7.Click on shortcut to launch
8.Hit 'Thanks' below )

Hidden Menu can be launched by USSD code: 277634#*#

Thanks! I've forgotten this issue... I'm focused on other things ejeje

this work to entry,

I have to rise back this thread.
My LG Black is showing an offset of 0.600 and 0.400 on either the y and x axis.
I've tried everything that shows up on google. No sucess.
Has anyone had success on calibrating the accelerometer/g-sensor?
The compass works perfectly, FIY.
Every app and game that relies on the g-sensor is messed up, because I have to lean the phone to the left to get perfect horizontal.
Thanks
Nuno

[app] WHITE G1 USERS WE HAVE DARK KEYS FOR 1.5, FINALLY!

thank to this user nurre we have dark keys for cupcake/1.5
ok you kinda need root but lets face it if you haven't got root your a bit of a loser
Rename to darkkeys.apk and install just like any application, then when you first use it tell su permissions to allow always
optional: go to settings, applications, quick launch and then set a shortcut for dark keys so you can just click it off and on with just search+whatever
( i like to use search+0 )
WE CAN SEE ARE KEYBOARD
Oh btw this has been only tested on jf1.50 but I'm sure it will work on all builds
if not, comment and tell me
Tested and confirmed working, thank you so much!
-JF 1.50, Android Aero
How do you install this?
Like you would install any other non-market app.
I downloaded it, named it darkkeys.apk and it doesnt appear in the app installer.

Are you sure you haven't set Windows to hide known file extensions? In that case you might just have renamed the darkkeys.zip to darkkeys.apk.zip, which of course won't be recognized by the app installer.
I am having the same problem. So were do you go in windows to change this problem? Thanks for any help.
Nevermind i figured it out. thanks.
after installing screen doesnt go to sleep by itself
Works for 5.0.2Hr5-A2SD...thanks

What do dark keys do? You're not talking about the virtual keyboard right? Or is it something that controls the back light on the G1?
Searched for it. So it turns off the light from the keyboard? How would this be useful? I have a black G1 so maybe this doesn't really effect me...

You have it reversed, its for having the keyboard lit as long as you want it and turning it off after your done.
I'm having the same issue, it wont go to sleep and it kills the battery crazy
add me to the list of users with backlight issues using this 1.5 version... Makes me a sad panda. I had taken this app for granted before upgrading - now I miss it big time.

[ FIX ] How to get all apps to display in fullscreen mode

1- Download Spare Parts from the market.
2- Start Spare Parts and find " Compatibility Mode ". It should be checked, so UN-CHECK it and then RE-CHECK it. Then reboot.
3- Start Spare Parts up again, find the " Compatibility Mode " again and this time just UN-CHECK it, thats all. Now reboot...
That should be it, now all apps should display in full screen mode. I found this on the net, so post up if all works well for you. And if there are any issues you may have. Hit the thanks button if it helped you.
Seems to do the trick. Thanks.
There's actually no need to uncheck, recheck then reboot.. Just uncheck it and reboot, it will suffice.
It works perfectly. Thank so much
Wow! Nice find...thanks!
larger font
I used (bought) spare pro + , and when I set a larger font and do the reboot it reset to default :-( anyone knows what to do
Fullscreen all app but cant touch it... you can install Unblock Me FREE from Market to test... cant choose any menu item...
thanks!
Glad its working across the board

Unfortunately after several tries over spare parts and spare parts pro I can say that it doesn't work with me... Can I ask what rom do you use? Thanks.
I'm rooted on tasks v5, with pershoots kernel.

Sometimes simple things can be overlooked... Have you tried restarting it?
are you using a custom launcher or lockscreen program?

Thanks. It is time I flashed new Rom.
When I got mine I had the same problem, no way to configure lock screen, after many many tries it works, no reason to work, no reason to not work, I think should be a bug.
Sent from my GT-P7300 using XDA App
Guys
I can't get mine to work either!
Put a password and a swipe code thingy a few times now and nothing.
Just keeps saying lockscreen off!
Any ideas?
Ok I found the solution.
You have to click location / security header at the top of the screen after you've selected continue once you enter password or pattern.

[Q] Strange GPS behaviour

Good Day, I have for 2 years my SGS (i9000) and i´d noticed one unusual thing. When I start navigation and turn GPS on, when setted as car navigation, everything shows ordinary, but when I turn setup of navigation software into walk mode, I immediately change position by few meters and turn right or left. I am strafing then.
It is not depend on what software I am using. When I run navigon, when setings is for walk nav, everything shakes on screen and I am unable to use that.
Does anyone what can I do? Is there some kind of GPS callibration software? It is not depend on what firmware (rom) I use.
Thank You.

Bad experience with the new One UI update

After the update, those 2 useless bars appeared I've tried to find every setting to turn them off but I can't find any (I already looked in the Edge Screen and all those advanced function settings) nothing helps
Please help me Thank you!
P/s: its function is Back, but I don't need 2 extra Back! My nav works fine!
(Solved) it turns out that the One Hand Operation+ app causes this, I uninstalled it and they are gone

Its been removed i guess, if you haven't cleaned your phone after a major update, now would be a good time for that.

I dont have the issue, i haven't factor reset too. Few people have it and it was solved by reset. It is highly advisable to factory reset. Those lines are actually a navigation gesture. If you swipe download from the line, it acts as back button and swipe straight horizontally to go to home. Swipe upwards for recent apps.
Make backup using smart switch and use google to sync game progress.
