Fri, 16 Dec 2011 11:10:52 +0000 http://www.workingfromhere.com/blog/?p=21#comment-71 Hi, I have a little problem with it. I use accelerometer and magnetic field like you showed, but when my phone lie on the table the values are changing very fast like crazy. When it's should show 10, it's shows values between 6 and 11. So this is my questions: Why is that? How I can fix it? I need that to be very accurate. And I also want use calibrate - sometimes you can see on other apps a warning that your device have to be calibrate and you have to wave your phone in a figure 8 pattern to reset magnetometr in your device. i checked it in onAccuracyChanged, i checke the accuracy variable, but I don't sure that it's enought. Is it? I hope you can help me, Sorry for mistakes if any there, probably there are. ;) Greetings from Poland for all of you:) Hi, I have a little problem with it.

However if you only use value[2] to determine the orientation, you will never know if the phone is straight or straight,but upside down. for that, you'll ned value[1] too. if it's positive, then it's upside down, if it's negative, then it's held straight. hope it helps.

Great app the same. I really liked game and its helped tons but wish there was another format for answering instead of just multiple choice to make it more challenging for more advanced studiers.

they’re likely just float arrays…

I realized that they're of type float[]. But i can't see where you declared them. I'm just curious of what the size should be when you initialize them.

One thing I like to see in an update is some sort of library that gives you example on how to pronounce the kana. Like other people I felt some levels moved to quickly then others. Maybe some sort of test as you finish a level. But overall great app! Joshua,
