Hi Robin,
I just tested the mag sensor on 1.0.4.20 using a show_magneticflux
example app, which uses QMagnetometer and it seems to be working.
There were some eariler version of sailfish that did not have a working
compass/mag, but these were fixed. Odd that compass works but mag does not.
What version of sensorfw is installed?
Perhaps you could email me the journal logs as well?
Thanks-
Lorn

Hi,
Sorry I got the anticipated magnitude wrong there - the observed
values (the order of tens of uT) seem OK actually, but they never
change, so I still have some sort of problem with QMagnetometer.
Regards,
Robin.

Hi,
I am having trouble getting any sensible magnetometer information
from my Jolla. I create a QMagnetometer instance, and start it,
and it triggers readingChanged() regularly. But when I examine the
QMagnetometerReading values, they never change, and are not
sensible magnetic field values. (I get around 10^-5 for each of x,
y and z, whereas I would expect the order of 40-50 nT for the
magnitude).
Using QCompass and QCompassReading, I can get sensible compass
azimuth data - so the device magnetometer is presumably
functioning OK. I can also get accelerometer data OK.
My Jolla runs Sailfish 1.0.4.20, and I'm using Qt 5.1 for Mer.
Is the QMagnetometer sensor something that is just not working
yet? If not, when can we expect this feature?
Thanks and regards,
Robin.
