Compass Calibration - North points West!!!??? Help!

[engellion]

Hi everyone,

I have an HTC Mozart running WP7.5.

No matter what compass app I've downloaded from Market Place (My Compass, Compass, Compass VO, HeadsUp Compass) the compass needle pioints West instead of North.

I did the figure 8 calibration thing a couple of times but still no difference.

A similar thing happens on my Son's Samsung Omnia 7.

What is the problem here, the apps or the handset, or the fact that I'm in Australia :-|

Thanks.

Is it consistantly west?

Also, is there an option to set long/lat (forgot which one calibrates the magnetic poles quickly)?

Yes, consistently points west. Even the Samsung Omnia 7 does as well.

None of the apps have an option to set long/lat. Is there a setting in WP7.5 for this?
