The accelerometer on my phone is misaligned. I started to notice this when I played Need For Speed Shift. When I hold my phone upright, the car would slowly veer to the right. I need to calibrate / re-calibrate my acclerometer so that I can fix this annoying issue. On Samsung, there's a calibration option on the Settings. I can't find it on my phone.
I have an app, Activity Classifier, that uses the handset accelerometers to provide information on activities and total exercise. It automates exercise tracking, classifies activities by type and quantifies aerobic intensity. Live data streamed from an Xperia Arc using the app is displayed in a blog. While it is possible to use on the Active it is unfortunately more difficult on the Active than the Arc because the Active accelerometers have a fault that is hard to get around. The problem is that the accelerometers sometimes take quite a while to start sampling when either started or the sampling frequency is changed.Occasionally it can take longer than 90 seconds. The problem can be seen with the app Accelerometer Frequency. Switch between sampling frequencies and notice that sometimes it switches instantly and sometimes it doesn't. To minimise battery consumption Activity Classifier acquires data from the accelerometers for 6 seconds out of every 30. If no other app is using the accelerometers they will start and stop every sampling period. On the Active they frequently don't start and the app detects a faulty accelerometer. The app has an option to keep accelerometers on and if this is selected it will work OK but battery consumption goes up a lot. The Active comes with a pedometer app called Walkmate. I can see from the Accelerometer Frequency app that Walkmate keeps the acclerometers running at 50 Hz and running Walkmate at the same time as Activity Classifier will make Activity Classifier work OK as well. Walkmate seems pretty power efficient and uses less than half the power of the market leading pedometer app Accupedo, run in power balanced mode, but it counts a different number of steps.
i cant call my phone when my xperia active go to lock screen mode...it looks like i've shut down my phone but i'm not...is any1 here can help me with this matter...i'll already update my phone 2 the latest software update via pc companion....and 1 other Q is y r my xperia active always restart at random period of time
yesterday out of the blue the display on my active stopped working. i connected it to the pc and did a reset/reinstalled the firmware but still no display.i can play music using the original headphones and the headset controls and the home/menu/back buttons light up when i press the unlock key but that's about it.oh yes and i think i managed to unlock the screen even though it was totally back as i could could play/pause music and skip tracks using the screen controls (pressing where i guessed the music controls were).
My gravity sensor is a bit tilted, but I can't find any way to fix it. There used to be a option to do it on some old Xperia phones, but it seems this functionality has been takenĀ out completely. Is there any possibility to recalibrate the sensor on system level?
Got my Z5 at the weekend and it appears the accelerometer isn't working properly. Ran diagnostics and it just runs left to right. auto rotate does not work as a consequence.
my very own xperia active get a scratch on its screen. and it new, its 2 weeks after i brought it. Is there any way to replace the front cover on its screen.
When I woke up this morning my phone was turned off so I try to turn it on by holding the power button, it only flashes the LED (red) 3 times between short pauses, no vibrations then stays turned off.Next, I tried to plug the charger in then holding the power button. still the same symptoms as above.Lastly, I tried plugging the charger / connector to my laptop then plugging the phone in. When I did that, the red LED shows 1 blink on intervals as opposed from the 3 blinks above.I know I still have my warranty but I want at least try and fix it because I don't like going out on weekends (the days of the week where I get to rest) so I'd rather try a fix here at home.
How to calibrate the battery....Some websites say to let the phone drain until it turns itself off and charge it right away and others say to let the battery sit for 5+ hours once it's dead.
i need to calibrate my screen, how can i do it?, my problem is: when is bloqued the iphoe and y whrite te code, teh screnn is back creazy and y can not whrite well.and also i need to make my screen can move from one side to other. ( the problem is that when i tourn the iphone, the foto dosent move).
My C6-00 (RM-612) was working fine all this while...and then I upgraded to 41.0.010 (Custom Version 41.0.010.C01.01).
After a day or two of the upgrade, I noticed that the touch left side of the screen drifted ... ie when I press * it dials 0. However the right side seems fine.
I tried the touch screen calibration but nothing happens when I tap the center of the top-left corner bullseye.
I have the G920F, I was wondering if there is a way to re-calibrate the touch screen, the issue I am having is on some games such as boom beach where i have to tap a certain little part of the screen and sometimes I am having to tap 3/4 times before it seems to register, on my older s4 this was perfect and registered first go every time.
i can`t calibrate my screen and most of the time a part of my screen does not work.sometime`s the phone starts opening randon stuff and starts tripping.i searched my whole phone and on google but still can`t calibrate my screen.sometime`s my phone is super slow. ev en in performance mode.
I've seen questions about this with other phones, but haven't found an answer. I've been unable to calibrate the compass (it never turns green, sometimes turns red). I have removed a compass app.
My daughter (an iPhone 4 user) glanced at my Atrix while i was playing Angry Birds and asked why everything was so brown. She then compared her screen to mine and I was astounded at how poorly yellows are rendered on my phone! I then comparedit to my son's Samsung Captivate, with similar results. Color rendition on the Atrix is really off.Is there a way to make the color temperature cooler on the Atrix, or to completely recallibrate the display? Now that I've seen the difference, it's hard not to see problems in the display all the time. Any chance that a future update will fix the display driver to be more balanced?
My phone has pink screen, it's even but I want to tweak the colors and make it more accurate (or at least for my own like) ... I'm rooted, any good apps for this out there? I want to keep stock kernel if possible ...
After update to Android 4.0.4, i wanted to pair my hear rate monitor but i couldn't. No icon like in the last Android version and no ant+ menu in the system settings.
Each time i connect my mobile to the computer with the pc companion a message appears says "you have the latest update". and my sales item (SI) number is in the list. ?
My family owns two Xperia Active phones. One of them has suddently stopped charging - when the charger is plugged in the phone shows no sign of receiving external power, the battery just fades out and dies. The fault is almost surely in the phone, as both batteries and chargers work fine in the other phone. Firmware has been updated.
How many different SIs does the Sony Xperia Active have? I have been waiting for months for the ICS upgrade but still nothing has come? According to this disussion thread url... it seems that some of the SIs on the list is getting the next update (.587) while mine still does not have the 1st update? Will my SI ever get an ICS update? It doesn't seem that Sony is adding new SIs to this list.
