I have loaded both the Google Sky Map and Star Chart. I've used both of these successfully with a Thunderbolt and a Droid (One) - but with the Razr the azimuth does not change when the phone is re-oriented. Elevation appears to work, but the azimuth moves randomly when the phone is turned from - say - north to east. It would appear that the compass orientation function is off.
Has anyone else had this problem? Thanks.
I'm most definitely NOT a VZW employee. If a post answered your question, please mark it as the answer.
I have a razr, tried to calibrate, used several different applications. In every compass application I've used, the compass reacts to vertical rotation, such as tilting the top of the phone toward or away from you, but it doesn't give the magnetic or true north direction. You can rotate the phone like you should and the direction on the phone stays the same, like if you were looking at a screenshot or sometimes it would jitter. At least I'm not the only one with the issue. Come on moto, you've sold hundreds of thousands of droid razrs, fix this please.{edited to comply with Terms of Service}
I'm having the exact same issues...tried multiple apps, uninstalling and reinstalling each of them, seeing they were the problem, but when they all react the same way it can only be the phone. The most ironic thing is that "space junk" actually appears to show my phone oriented in the correct wa y(has a separate view option for this) that makes the app appear that it should work properly and moves correctly according to the satellites. Yet as you rotate from north to west/east/etc...the phone lags then all of the sudden skips almost 180 degrees. Would love for them to fix this bug, works fine on all my other friends' droid phones, just not this one.
