My accelerometer has stopped working. Has anyone else had this issue? Is there anything I can do or do I need to send it back under warranty?
Edit:running froyo.

Bump, anyone?

Perhaps try the calibration tool in Froyo (in settings)?
What I would try too when these things happen is completely reboot the device (and also remove the battery for a while).
Just tried this no luck. Looks like warranty it is.

Mine too. I noticed that it helps to restore the settings. Could this be caused by installing a program, for example, Press Reader?
This happened to me a while back, I just re-flashed and it worked again.
You didn't hit the button in the notification drawer did you?
These things rarely flat out break (unless you have an iPhone). Reflashing should do it.

hi, i am using cm7 nightly. in stock rom *#0*# works to get a menu where these calibration things are. but in cm7 its not working. my compass is not working right. can any one tell me how fix it?
You don't need a software to calibrate it. Just draw 8 on air with your phone a few times when you wan to use compass. It works perfectly for me.

What is Force Restart?
When phones is not responding and hanged up, most of users pull battery out and start their phone up. This action cause serious damages to eMMC Chip. So, most of smartphone manufacturer include a key combination to do force restart in their product.
How:
Volume Down + Volume Up + Power for few sec.
My Test: On Icecoldsandwitch 7.2, Cyanogen 7.1 and Virtuous Quattro RC3 custom roms
You can also test on your phone; test it and replay your result with roms' names
I'm very interested to know how it works on Official rom
good to know - im one of the battery pulling majority and as a result the indent on the case where you put your nail in to prise the case off has become quite rough with the black plastic coming off!
wish i'd known this 14 months ago!
This will not work when your phone is hung fyi.

Playgound ICS, newest version. And it is a hard freeze. Even the charging light remains on, until battery literally runs out or gets removed. No button (soft or hardware) is responding to anything.
Tested on Virtuous Quattro RC3 , works successfully even in hanging

That's odd... you would think that during a hang when all digitized buttons and soft buttons were unresponsive that this would not work.

Yes, It will, let me give you an example, It's not perfect one but it's similar situation. when your computer does not respond, you hold the power button and computer turning off, or in laptops when your system is hanged up are you holding power button or pull your laptop's battery?
ofcourse we cannot compare smartphones with computer systems but what should you do if - for example - htc one s hanged up? (soft freeze) you can't pull battery out
so according to my tests, in soft freeze situation, you can force restart

When my phone is freezing I give it a blanket... if that doesn't work I throw it in the sauna.
Anyway, I've to pull the battery if it hangs since no buttons/keys are working.
No, it doesn't work to hold volume up/down+power.
Yea, I've tried. Like each time it happens just in case it might work once.
Can't think of any other answers I might get to answer

according to other froum users, Force Restart fully worked in UI hanging, the order is V down + V up + Power for 6 sec.

Sometimes this method does not work. Sometimes my phone freezes, and does not respond to anything. In these cases I recommend an adb reboot or something

Yeah, That is Hard Freeze, caused by memory dump, chipset shock, and etc. But in Soft Freeze, UI is not responding, application lock, games, and etc. this method works perfectly

Is there any solution to this problem?
touch buttons illuminated, screen back light on but screen wont wake up, stays black, so i have to remove the battery.
It is driving me mad, happens every other day 2/3 times a day.
Running temaseks rom and kernel on there... is there anything i can do to eradicate this problem?

i think it's a rom problem,i face it when i'm on that build,but now i change to gueste.. and everything works,try to change kernel.. or rom..
I also had this problem on Parandroid CM10, no sign of life from the phone at all.
However, I reflashed the rom and now it works great.
Ok rom issue then. I will reflash it with a different one and kernel. Any kernel recomendations?

Happened to me on gueste2x v3.8 last night while I was USB tethering...and I was just pushing for a record time running made it to 160 hours and had to pull battery out to get it working again. As mentioned already, it's probably something to do about background data/wifi activity.
Nevertheless, I still recommend gueste2x v3.8 :thumbup: Give it a try

wow, i really wonder which settings you use and which usage type you have. hardly get 20 hours of life out of my battery. im using a jb rom which needs more juice, but nevertheless the difference is stunning. maybe i should start thinking about getting a new battery

Happened to me twice in a row even with temasek. And bunch of times before with variety of roms. Its basicly kernel issue, low voltage set on screen off and probably some background data sync.. Well i hope cm10 is gonna fix this issue forever, because this is making me wanna toss my o2x and whole android to the trashbin and buy a Windows Phone rather.. I Just cant keep a phone i cant rely on

I kept having this issue with stock CM & faux kernel. I resolved it finally by replacing the battery with a new one.
