Help Accelerometer issues

Okay, so my wife and I were on a shopping mission for my mother-in-law who is in another state. We had MIL on skype looking at purses (yeah, I was having a blast). While on the call, my loving wife drops my t-bolt. Now my screen is perpetually in landscape mode unless I turn the auto-orientation off.

How can I fix this? Is it fixable? Would a data reset work? Help?
 
I hate to hear that about your TB, but you might give this a try. Download the GPS Status app from the Market. It allow sensor calibration and I'm pretty sure is calibrates all of them. Now as to whether this will help or not, I can't say, but I would think it worth a try.

Thanks BRG, I had that app installed already (along with bubble, the level app) and neither of them worked. The accelerometer is shot. Not to worry, one trip to the Verizon store (and one data reset) later and they'll send me a new one. Kinda sucks, I liked mine. It didn't have any of the issues that I see so often on this board.
