Icon and sensor core

[ChalupaBatman]

Does the Icon have sensorcore? I thought it did but I'm trying to use the tetra lock screen and it's not detecting the sensor core.

I'm using DP 8.1

You need Cyan update.

SensorCore is enabled with the Lumia Cyan firmware I believe.

Well that is very disappointing. Starting to regret the icon a bit.

strange thing is that nokia had a beta motion sensor app that used the sensor core on the icon and it worked without cyan. I used it myself.
Nokia Motion Monitor Beta | Windows Phone Apps+Games Store (United States)

Nokia Motion Monitor was the beta version of the SensorCore kit. SensorCore is name of the software kit used to handle passive hardware motion data.

My point is anyone could download it and have a step counter, it didn't require cyan. But now they claim cyan is required to use motion data, when they already showed us that it wasn't.
The hit on the battery was minor, especially compared to the hit 8.1 & Cortana gave us.
Just give us cyan already.

I also remember using Motion Monitor beta pre cyan on my 1520. I thought it was a given when I got my Icon. I was mistaken lol.
