Have you tested it with more than one program? At least Bounce, Attitude, Madbomber, SolarWolf use accelerometer. But if it's stuck something is broken.

Yes. Battery was taken out, and i held down the powerbutton for several seconds, just to be sure.. Now i was hoping there would be another solution then to flash the device, again.. But it seems like the only option atm. Will post here when tested!

Well. A firmware flash did the trick. Not sure what caused the accellorometer to seize up though..

Well, glad the flash resolved it. I was thinking it would have been a mechanical fault, though I have no idea really how the accellorameter works.

if you wouldnt have posted that a flash helped, i would have suggested you "punch" the device with your hands so the accellerometer gets loose again

Punching the phone? Really? Are you serious?

Everyone knows an 8lb sledge hammer has much more... finesse. Besides, you don't risk injury to your hand.

Actually, Nintendo has you smack the Wii controller if they find that it's "stuck" or discalibrated.
