iOcean X7S

It seems some android phones have an odd accelerometer/gyroscope (I dunno). The new iOcean X7S is one of them. In landscape mode the Y axis is inverted so when you turn left the game turns right.

Looks like this isn't the only phone with this configuration, but it isn't common. The problem can be fixed if this line in the Dive Sensor script (line 102) :

is changed to



But of course this means the game controls will be inverted on all other phones. Ideally we need to be able to invert the axes in the game's gui to support phones with this problem.

The screen is gorgeous by the way

5" 1080p is definitely the way to go!

Hi,
this was a bug in the X7S first stock rom... I did contact the iocean support few weeks ago upon finding this out and they fixed the problem, providing me with a new rom.
No need to change anything in dive sensor script (the problem is not limited to the dive... it also appears in any game using gyro), all you need is a firmware update

and yeah, the screen is so amazing

I had the 23rd Jan 2014 rom installed which had the problem but upgrading to the March rom fixed it ^_^ Thanks for the tip!
