Well then this is extremely confusing! Firstly, thanks Mark for taking the time to test it.
The only other thing which could be wrong is how the coordinate system is represented in each device. I draw to the screen once I have remapped the coordinate system i.e.: if(screenOrientation == 1) { // Portrait SensorManager.remapCoordinateSystem(R, SensorManager.AXIS_MINUS_Z, SensorManager.AXIS_X, outR); } else { // All other send to Landscape SensorManager.remapCoordinateSystem(R, SensorManager.AXIS_X, SensorManager.AXIS_Z, outR); } However, this shouldn't be an issue should it?
