Re: [android-developers] Sensor events are received, but not working.
FWIW, the orientation sensor is deprecated. While I yanked the sensor
coverage from my books (the third-generation sensor API makes my head
hurt), I do have some samples that might help:

Yet the if statement for the accelerometer doesn't kick in. Also why am I
not receiving the compass events? My device has a compass, I am 100% sure of
that. I register the sensors as follows:
sensorManager =
(SensorManager)this.getSystemService(Context.SENSOR_SERVICE);
sensorManager.registerListener(listener,
sensorManager.getDefaultSensor( SensorManager.SENSOR_ORIENTATION),
SensorManager.SENSOR_DELAY_FASTEST);
sensorManager.registerListener(listener,
sensorManager.getDefaultSensor(Sensor.TYPE_ACCELEROMETER),
SensorManager.SENSOR_DELAY_FASTEST);
Ideas/solutions, anyone?

Re: [android-developers] Sensor events are received, but not working.
Thanks Mark! I'll work on updating the orientation code. Do you have any
idea why the if statement for the accelerometer doesn't kick in, even
though I am getting a couple of thousand sensor events for type 1?
Thanks

Re: [android-developers] Sensor events are received, but not working.
It might be a combined bitfield, since they have a TYPE_ALL. Beyond
that, no clue.

Re: [android-developers] Sensor events are received, but not working.
Guess you could be right, Perhaps shifting all the sensor code to the newer
APIs could fix it.
Thanks
