•

: Calibrate the geomagnetic 

sensor when the compass or augment reality application 

shows incorrect information.

Keep the touch screen or keypad facing up during 

•

calibration.
Calibration may take some time, depending on 

•

your location or other circumstances.
Calibration may not be possible in areas with 

•

strong magnetic fields. If the calibration fails, move 

to another area and try again.
If you enter an area with strong magnetic fields 

•

after calibration, your device will automatically 

attempt to recalibrate the geomagnetic sensor.
The geomagnetic sensor in your device does 

•

not support the bird’s-eye view, which fixes the 

directions. Therefore, a small error may occur in 

measuring angles and cause a map to be turned 

upside-down.
