Help Motion problems on galaxy s3!

[dholmes29]

Since the latest software update (I think!) the motion option isn't working for any of the features. Although motion still works in games (I.e beach buggy blitz, can still steer)

Has anyone else been having this problem or know how to solve it?

are u sure the motion options are enabled in the phone? Try enabling them again reboot and see.

I've tried all that and it's all switched on. I haven't turned them off since I decided I wanted to use the direct call feature.

which android version are u on mate?
i dont use any of the motion features but they work on 4.1.2 for me (other than palm to mute which never worked)

p.s, bad news but if you want the features back, it sounds like the good old factory reset option that nearly everyones had to do since 4.1.1
root it 1st and back everythin up... :beer:

I have no idea!!!

I guess I'm on the latest one as it only did a software update about a week or so ago?

in settings, about device it tells u mate. should be 4.1.2

anyway unless anyone has any ideas, id say its a bug from updating and a factory reset will fix it.

have u tried holdin in power button without charger in n jst keep holdin til it reboots itself?
seems to fix some random things........

Ah yes, it says 4.1.2

Oh I didn't know you can do that. I'll give that a go now if not ill try a factory reset. Thanks
