grr wish i'd learnt actionscript and flash..this woulda been so much fun oh well..i'm a good programmer so i may have a play around with it. or just edit some of my old java games to take input from the sensor. fun fun.

Now I'm in progress of simplifying the script and including the Y and Z axis (the arrow only uses X). When thats done I'll make a tutorial here how to use accelerometer data in Flash

Yeah, a tutorial would be helpful sice I can't rally find how to make the accelermometer data actually control anything else in the flash file

At this moment I'm trying to find out how too.
If you want to see raw Accelerometer data you need 2 frame movie with this script in the first frame:
loadVariables("accelerometer://data", _root);
And 3 Dynamic Text fields on the stage vith Vars: accX, accY, and accZ.
It seems that each of the acc numbers goes approximately from -990 to 990. It does reach ±1000 if you shake the phone.

Edit: Don't know if it was obvious to anyone but now I found out what these numbers are. They show gravitational acceleration in cm/s². Accuracy of the accelerometer is ±18.

Almost forgot about this. This thread continues on tutorials, already made the 1st one:
How to make auto-rotate function in Flash Lite 2.0 (K850i)
There are more to come!

Great work!!

Watched some of the youtube videos, its cool. Just I am thinking how about something like a compass using accelerometer. I dont know if thats really possible or not.

Unfortunately it isn't because accelerometer uses gravity, not the Earth's polarity.

Yes you are right.

I think there was a Java application available for the k750i. You need to point towards the current direction of sun, and based on time .. not sure how .. it shows the directions.

Ah, thats normal way of orientating. You can do that with your wrist watch if its not digital. I learned that in primary school, can't remember how it goes anymore.
