Hi

Thanks for feedbacks, as you know i dont own this device, so i must be carefull with The patchs i add.

Rotation works with 3rd party apps am i right?

Can you check with an sensor check app ( like "Z device test" ) if The accelerometer is working?
Also try to retrieve an dmesg, and send that log to me.

Regards ;)

    There are no modules in this zip... Is that intentional - i.e. are they built in - or not.

    Hi

    It's intencional, they are not built in, old modules will work fine, since i didnt changed nothing on modules.

    If i change some code in future builds, then i will include new modules.

    ;)
