Do u have a module for File transfer using bluetooth?
Hello Mvp,
Sorry, haven't up to now.
I think the z-condition should be:
Face down: 9 < z < 10
Face up: -10 < z < -9
Tested on the OpenIntents Sensor Simulator.
Excellent, it works nicely, once thing i will add is the ability to detect this "event" even if the app is not running.
Using 9,10,-9,-10 do not work on all Android devices and will not cater for situation when the device is put in a pocket, a bag, etc. The simple conditional check Android Er has in his blog is correct and would cater for these situations.
