Most probably a hardware failure...Nokia Care awaits you with open arms

Hi,

I experienced some strange behaviors like this recently probably caused by an accidental drop of my phone. I had to lock the phone in portrait mode to use it...

By using a level app and the sensor galery I noticed a constant shift of -90° on the X axis. I don't know if it was a calibration issue or if the accelerometer could have made a rotation in the phone .

BTW, as I didn't want to use the Nokia care services, I manage to fix it by patching sensord. I added a constant shift of the X axis in the libaccelerometeradaptor and now everything is working fine again. Crappy solution but the accelerometer can't be recalibrated by the driver, the function has been removed by Nokia .

Can you install the sensor galery app and told us what results the QAccelerometer sensor gives you when your phone lies flat on a table ? The level app can help too...
