Tomsz Trejderowski updated RIPPLE-38:
-------------------------------------
Description:
According to PhoneGap API / CompassHeading object description:
http://docs.phonegap.com/en/2.9.0/cordova_compass_compass.md.html#compassHeading
`CompassHeading.headingAccuracy` is the deviation in degrees between the
reported heading and the true heading. And there is an Android Quirk below,
that says that trueHeading is not supported, but reports the same value as
magneticHeading and headingAccuracy is always 0 because there is no difference
between the magneticHeading and trueHeading.
However, when running compass using application in Ripple emulator with Cordova
/ Android / Samsung Nexus platform, CompassHeading.headingAccuracy is always =
100.
This is incorrect. CompassHeading.trueHeading is equal to
CompassHeading.magneticHeading under Ripple (correct), so
CompassHeading.headingAccuracy must return 0.
