Compass?

Does the Moto G have a compass?

I can't get dynamic compass to work in Ingress, my cursor always points north... But in GPS Status it seems to have be moving even when I'm stationary.

[FIX] [RecoveryFlashable] Compass FIX in CyanogenOS 12.1 and CM 12.1 snap/nightly

In latest Cyanogen OS 12.1 update YOG4PAS1NO and CM Snapshot 12.1 YOG4PAO236 the compass is still giving troubles indicating the correct direction when tilting the device... Fixing the compass is as stupid as CM mantainers that didn't merge the fix for OPO. The fix is really simple, you can do it manually or flash the attached package in recovery.

Manual steps (root required):

1. Modify with an editor /system/etc/sensor_def_qcomdev.conf:

   line 66: :version 0x00010004 (instead of 3)
   line 89: 902 3 0x00010004 (instead of -3 and 3)]



2. Delete /data/misc/sensors/sns.reg


3. Reboot and test with https://play.google.com/store/apps/d...sim.gpsstatus2

I'd like to know if there is a way to use any compass app on an android phone which does not have magnetometer. My phone is THL 4000.
