Problem: G-sense pad not functioning well

[milmil]

I have problem with my G-sense settings. I've reset my VP for several times and i feel my g-sense is getting worse each time i reset my VP. Now my g-sense is working like crazy all over the place everytime i try to use it. Is there anyway i can "re-initiallize" my g-sense? i tried the sensitivity test and such but it just doesnt work. Any help????

Perhaps, you need to recharge your VAIO Pocket's internal battery. The G-sense pad is known to react slowly when your unit's battery is not fully charged.

Otherwise, the reason the G-sense pad is not functioning properly could be due to the following:

1) Sensitivity setting. *You did mention that you had to reset the VAIO Pocket several times. Please note that the G-sense pad sensitivity must be set again upon a reset.

2) Moisture. *If there is moisture on the G-sense pad, it will not operate normally. Ensure that your fingers are dry when operating the G-sense pad or wipe the area with a dry cloth.

This has happened to me before as well. Definitely go into setting and re-optimize it.

Occaisionally the "Thumb" operation setting will yield some strange jerky results depending on the angle you hold the player at--maybe try going to "Flat". I find this method of operation more straight-forward and less unpredictable.

EDIT: lastly, when you are optimizing/re-intializing; when it asks you to press the OK button, try two things. Go as fast as possible to it and press OK. If that doesn't improve it, re-initialize and wait until the status bar at the bottom counts down to the last one, then press it. I believe sensitivity is determined by the time an manner in which you go towards this button.
