Thanks Peli, it works like a charm now! In fact my compass code needed no adaptation, but it was very nice to simulate it to make sure. Your demo sample was particularly helpful. Great stuff! Before I had just not realized that I had to download the documentation bundle rather than read the various pieces of online material. Thanks for clarifying that.
Regards Long P.S.: I just wished that the Java language purists would not have prevented having a C-like preprocessor (#ifdef, etc) such that I could more easily, and with physical certainty, remove all OpenIntents traces and dependencies after testing. I prefer physical code stripping over any assurances of transparency. Right now I have to comment out code in five places. Doable after adding unique searchable OpenIntents tags to those various places, but not convenient. This is not an OpenIntents problem, of course. I hope that someone will figure out how to add a C preprocessor to Eclipse for working with Android.
