When was the last time you did a gyroscope calibration:

Menu > Settings > Display > Scroll to very bottom > Gyroscope Calibration > Put on LEVEL surface > Tap "Calibrate"

Let me know if that helps

EDIT: Also try installing "Android Sensor Box" from the play market

Hopefully it's software-related and not hardware... I believe you can access the device testing menu by punching in *#0*# into the dialer. There, go to Sensor. Do an accelerometer and gyroscope test.

This is random, and maybe an easter egg... but you get a chihuahua puppy picture for the accelerometer test, lol. I also had no idea there is a barometer in here.

If those tests don't run properly, probably give Samsung a call, or take it back to the dealer.

Cheers.
