Hi, We still use acceleration sensor to calculate the orientation in 1.4 I check the Keon phone and find the data from acceleration sensor seems not correct. One easy test is to put device on the desk, we expect the x,y are close to 0, and z is close to 9.8. However, z is almost 20 now. If the acceleration data didn't report correctly, we can not get the correct orientation.

Hi, I'm using also 1.4, I think it worked with 1.2, but I don't use 1.2 since long time ago. When you say that you did use the accel sensor do you mean that you don't use it anymore?
