[rayray987123]

what is the theory behind? how can the phone sense the rotation/direction? there is no motion sensor in A1200.....

[droopyargentina]

Math/Astronomical Calculation.

Time/Date , with Location
Gives the sun and moon location. If you rotate the phone to the sun, it gives you the True North.
