Hello everyone, so about a week ago i purchased a Mattel View-Master® starter pack. It came yesterday.

So when i tried to look at the fox nothing happened, and searching on google i found that this phone has no gyroscope sensor. And our brother J7 also does not have it?
So, my question is - is there a way that you can simulate gyroscope on our sweet J5?
Or i just wasted 30 bucks? :crying:

Thanks

EDIT : I just found a xposed module that allows you to simulate gyroscope. testing it now :)

Nope. You can't. To save the money sell it or ask for refund. Or get a new device.

No results... it needs a magnetic sensor

Is there an app to simulate magnetic sensor? :D
J5 has a ,,somehow,, magnetic sensor near the audio jack. It is used for smart covers. If you put a magnet near it screen goes off .

Nah.. Sensor box is related to files that are in system/etc/permissions. There are declared all the hardware capabilities. And since gyroscope and magnetic sensor files are not there, apps won't regognize it even the board has these chips.
