I installed air penguin from google play, and when I tilted my tab to the right the penguin went right, so I installed another accelerometer games and the result is same. the question is : is this just an app issue or accelerometer issue?
*sorry for my bad english.
Don't worry about that. First thing you have to do is testing the accellerometer (just to be sure)
If it's bad-calibrated, you just have to re-calibrate it
Go into Settings -> Screen..
Then you have to see HOW does the accellerometer work
You can even use AndroSensor here https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.fivasim.androsensor&hl=it and test it
Let us know

I tried it and the accelerometer works well, I think this is just an application issue. thanks for the help
I think there is a 90 degree pivot in accelerometer for our GT7+, and with another configuration somewhere else to keep the screen orientation normal. However some apps do not work with the latter part and behave awkardly on our Tab.
I tried this game a long time ago and it did the same for me (cartoon wars too). I never found the calibration option in the menu, so when i saw this post i was like AHA how the heck did i miss it!
Anyhoo i don't see this option on the settings menu at all. So is this a just one of the quirks with this tablet/games?

Ohhh Ohhh Ohhh nice to see this! I'm wondering if it's just a P6200 option...
Hey people with P6210, do you even have no "horizontal calibration" option in Screen settings???
Please let us know...
Sent from my Galaxy Note with DarkyROM 3.3
Yes, I have a GT-P6210MAYXAR here that does have this option. That is very strange. It should be the last option on the Screen settings page, titled "Horizontal calibration." This issue is new to me.
I'm almost certain I still had that option when I was running the LA3 firmware.
I switched back to KL1 so I could run garyd9's custom kernel.

Hey guys, i got an idea for an interested dev. I dont have a android phone yet, but I've been lurkin around here for a while and have learned a lot from all you guys.
Now, i for one know people who go through others phones. Needless to say, it is annoying. I have an idea to con these guys out of there snooping.
Its a lock screen app that implicates both that we know already, the standard bar swiping one

"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
and the combo one
I was thinking maybe we could get an app that let you swipe the bar, like if it was going to open it, but then act like if nothing happened. To actually unlock it, you would put the combo in invisibly, either by swiping through specific sectors, as if the screen were a grid.
This is my idea to you devs for a safer phone.
I like this idea. Would be a good April fools trick too.

hahaaha, i know right. just hope a dev is willing to do it.
Can't imagine it would be that hard since both items are already built.

Hmm well on cyanogenmod you can just hide the "dots" on the Pattern-lock. I use it currently. My current background is black, so that's why it's all black. It's just an extra security measure. Anyone without an android phone wouldn't really know what to do considering it doesn't even show the "Incorrect pattern" message (which you can turn on or off).
Note that this is the normal pattern lock with just everything hidden (except for the cyanogenmod message at the top, which can be turned off/changed to something else.) There's no slide-unlock then pattern-unlock, just pattern-unlock.

(I am on the unofficial CM9 release)
Is this possible? I know the delay was set by Google to keep the screen from rotating when you don't want it to, but it doesn't bother me if it rotates on accident- and if it did bother me I'd just turn off auto-rotate. I'm not looking to speed up the animation, I want to remove or shorten the screen rotation delay. All I can find on Google is people misunderstanding this request, people saying "GOOGLE MADE IT AS A FEATURE I DON'T SEE THE PROBLEM" and people saying "AOKP ROM lets you change it" Okay well, how did the creator of the AOKP ROM do that? What file needs to be changed to modify screen rotation delay?
Thanks.
P.S: I'm not an idiot when it comes to modifying Android, I'm hardly versed in it, but I'm confident with what I do. I'm not some random idiot.
you need to change framework parameters. you can either change the SETTLE_TIME_MS= in the framework (see http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=24869) and compile the rom from source,
or try to decompile framework and change with the method in this link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1413304 which may work for ics.
both are somewhat time consuming to do though... so people would rather recommend you flash an aokp rom.
Well I'm not too keen on compiling a whole rom lol so I tried the framework.jar edit. I followed the directions exactly and when I rebooted I got the "Android Optimizing" like it does after an OTA and... No change.
Is the feature a default AOKP thing? Cause if it is I may have to check out the Uniporn rom.
In the unicorn Rom control setting at the bottom of general ui is rotation delay. I don't recall if cm9 has same option

Thanks for the help guys, looks like I'll be flashing UNiPoRN. Hopefully I'll be able to MMS with that rom as well.
Put these as your settings it'll work great! (Password is: CINGULAR1)

Hello,
I'm looking for an app that i had quite a long time ago, it had as option to have compatibility with older apps (meaning that apps that didn't go fullscreen on higher resolution devices, got upscaled to have the full screen covered).
Anyone know what app that was or has another app that can do the same?
Thanks in advance.

Assuming you have an Android, it should fit the screen regardless.
Yes i do have Android and no it doesn't, why would i be asking for it otherwise
What phone you have and what apps aren't fiting?
The Sensation, currently i have it with FF3 (Final Fantasy 3), 2 black borders on the side.
But older apps have this aswell (some just appear in a small screen with black area's in the bottom and side parts)
Like this with FF3:

Hmm.. this doesn't happen on my Droid 3 except on emulators, in which case it has to do with the original game having a specific resolution. Sorry I couldn't help
After searching some forums, i have finally found a post i made for a game that had this problem (Eternal Legacy HD).
The app is Spare Parts.
Thanks for trying to help tho!

I just stumbled upon a nifty little feature that I don't remember seeing mentioned anywhere before. At first, I thought it was an Android "L" developer preview feature, but low & behold, I just tried it on my HTC One & sure enough it is live there as well.
At any rate, I am curious when Google implemented this feature? I don't know if it was in one of the many GMS/Play Store updates, or if it has been there all this time & I just missed it somehow.
Give it a try, if you haven't. Just go into apps, select the "all apps" tab & long press any app that is not installed already. It will put the device into multiple selection mode, where you can select & install multiple applications much easier than selecting individual apps & pressing install for each one. Sure, it's not as easy as using TB or another backup utility, but for those of us that are bumping between KK & Android "L", where most system & data restore apps don't work yet due to context changes, it definitely saves a little time.
I am interested to know if you can do this on any JB or ICS device too. Try it out & let me know.

Thanks for the tip, i might try that nextime instead of installing each of them 1 by 1

I think it was implemented some updates ago, not many but. 2-3 back I think.
It doesn't matters what OS version you have, Play Store and Services go on their own way so I think anyone can get it.
Greetings!
I've discovred this when i changed my nexus mid-may.

I concur. I use it every day as well.
Dear Rick, thanks for the cool app, just let you know that on my new Note 5, I can not import the fingerprint indicator from internal memory even i saw it, but nothing happens when I choose, the indicator unchanged. Can u keep a little bit attention on that? Thanks again Rick

Hi. I got one other report about this. I am not sure if the person was using a Note 5 :$. Could you contact me via email? You can find my email address on the about page in FingerSecurity or on the Play Store page
Very good app, I use it daily since I had the Galaxy S5

Hi Rick,
Really digging this app. There is one minor annoying thing that is happening. When I turn on my screen the application looks to jump to the top of the notification list. When it does that it moves everything down, which causes a bit of shutter on my lock screen.
Have you heard of this? Also, PM if you want a video for this great application.
