report was from a friend.. his compass sensor is broken, so this problem may not very important. but may be useful to known that with odd compass data there's a infinite loop somewhere...

ok, i also had this problem on my device (acer liquid), and my compass works fine, at first start after a reinstallation mixare gave a toast message with "compass data unreliable. please calibrate etc etc." and continue forever, until i stop the app from the android application manager. now seems to work without problems.

I'd like to hear some feedback from the people that are experiencing the issue (I cannot reproduce it on the phone I have at disposal :-( ). I think that the patch works great for hiding the message, but I am not sure whether the compass sensor is released afterwards or if mixare keeps requesting the updates (hence using a lot of battery and requiring a force close). If someone could confirm this is not the case I'll close this issue! |
