Samsung Focus Compass Problem

[boatman37210]

I have a Samsung Focus 1.3. Mango 7.10.7720 Firmware 2103.11.81

Can't get any compass app to work. When I go to diagnostic mode the compass function is there. The XYZ axes show numbers and they change as I move the phone, but the compass needle does not move. It points north to south. Is the compass needle suppose to be moving when looking at diagnostics? Trying to figure out what is normal for the compass in diagnostics mode.

Anyone else having trouble with compass?

Thanks

Yes, needle moves when the axes change. No problems here.

I just had a HTC mango update for their Compass program today. Maybe one is coming for Samsung.

Anyone found a solution to this problem?
My compass points south instead of north. All the compass apps that I've downloaded experience the same problem, even the compass in the diagnosis mode.
