Is there a Way to make Fall Detection more Sensitive? Samsung says 20g, down to 10g ?

Hi,
Is it possible to detect/measure car's acceleration or deceleration through a smartphone accelerometer ?
If yes, is it possible in all new smartphones ?
and how to implement it in android ?
Thanks
Depending on what you want to do, you'd have to figure out how best to filter out regular movement of a person just picking it up and putting it down, say - I don't know what the data on that looks like and how you could distinguish, et cetera. Or if the phone is sensitive enough to pick up anything meaningful beyond the sort of hard stop that would send it flying to the floor or whatever (they do seem pretty sensitive, but you'd have to test it).
You can determine speed using the GPS and it's pretty accurate (but this will use a lot of battery) and would naturally filter out small movements of a person using it within the vehicle. Implementation, I have no idea on that.
So overall, great update to 4.4.4
But how would I go about changing just one aspect of the new update?
I would like to keep everything but take out the way the phone just disables anything involving gestures if there's something within close proximity to the sensor. First off, I never really had an issue with the phone turning on while in my pocket, or the torchlight turning on in the same situation. But now with the new update, I can't use the pause/play, next track, back track gestures because my finger accidently passes the sensor or a piece of paper is on top of the sensor OR the sensor "senses" the denim in front of it while the phone is in my jean's pocket.
Would I be looking for specific code in system files? Can I just go into build.prop and disable proximity sensor verifications? What am I even saying? Total noob.
No you cannot go into the build.prop and manually disable that feature. Its a feature thats built into the ROM and that would consist you of downloading from source and removing it yourself.
Thats too much work, if you really want the proximity sensor check off, you're best off downloading a custom ROM with this feature or you can just not touch the proximity sensor. The proximity sensor is at the top of the screen, not sure how you accidently passes the sensor and would hide it. The phone scans whether or not its blocked quite fast that it should realize that its not blocked by the time your hand reaches to the touch screen.
Hey guys, I'm a new user of SG6. I just sold my LG G2, and now I'm missing the function that keeps the screen off if the proximity sensor detects something. My battery is draining too fast and I suspect that in part is because of many accidental wakes.
Is there any configuration that makes such thing? Or any app with or without root to do it?
I'm also looking for an answer to this.
On my previous devices, I could use a feature of GravityBox to accomplish this, but it doesn't work on the S6. Maybe someone with Xposed experience can port the feature to a Samsung compatible version?
Is there any solution to adjust the indicated Air Pressure? My watch is showing 5 hPa too low compared to real air pressure. I cant find any settings to manually calibrate it.
Can someone confirm that this is present on yours X5III? Wondering if this is by design or some fault.
I'm using barometer to log an altitude of my trips..
->
Open app showing barometer data (preferably Phyphox), run pressure test.
Tapping or making pressure to middle part of the display makes pressure go peaking high and low. Like this:
Probably normal, you're changing the internal pressure when you do that.
Means the watertight seal still intact.
Fun fact: this water-tight seal, plus a barometric sensor, has been used by apps to simulate features like the side squeeze Pixels had from series 2 thru 3a.
I tried the same thing on my old X Compact and it does the same thing. Only the sensor on XC has a lot slower readout so it does not show so rapidly and sometimes it smooth it out. Well, need to be more soft on tapping while also recording altitude with barometet ) thx for replies
