This may a related issue. When using the accelerometer sensor on Droid when I hold the device with the display plane vertical, like when taking a picture, the y axis is minus one g, regardless of lanscap or portrait orientation.

It works pretty well, except if the phone is in a landscape orientation, and the user starts to 'flatten' it out, starts thinking it's in the portrait orientation again, Thanks -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
