Hi, I am trying to write an app that uses the compass along with steps travelled to approximate the path one takes walking around. I fugure that I can use the z value of SENSOR_ORIENTATION or the z value returned by SensorManager.getOrientation() which is more recommended by the API doc. Can someone explain why getOrientation() is prefered over SENSOR_ORIENTATION? They both seem to produce a magnetic north reading, which I should be able to correct with the declination angle getDeclination() (android.hardware.GeomagneticField)
