Hi Rud, I just finished reading all on your blog. For your reply to my
first question, how Android computes the orientation from the
acceleration. I think only one article is sort of related to my
question, which is

13 July 2009
Sensor - Accelerometer & Magnetics

But...er...sorry, I can't really see how Android does the internal
calculation. What I want to know is not really how we later process
the orientation and acceleration, but how Android computes the
orientation readings in the first place, because I think there's no
such a seperate sensor to detect the orientation, right? Also, from my
data analysis, it shows that there is always a time mismatch between
change of acceleration and change of orientation, and it seems that
the change of orientation that corresponds to the change of
acceleration is always triggered after the change of acceleration.

The reason why I need to know this is that I want to do the reverse
engineering to compensate the gravity decomposed onto x,y,z axis by
using the orientation at the same time instance and geometric
formulas, so that I could cancel out G, because the accelerometer
readings show that G is automatically decomposed when the phone is
tilted. My target now is just to get rid of G....
