Legion go 1 z1e, gyro is unreliable

[k-kruglov]

Your system information

• Steam client version: current stable steam os legion go
• SteamOS version: 3.7.25
• Opted into Steam client beta?: [Yes/No] no
• Opted into SteamOS beta?: [Yes/No] no
• Have you checked for updates in Settings > System?: [Yes/No] yes

Please describe your issue in as much detail as possible:

• tilts/looks down always if I move the device too fast
• feels weird, like not stuttering, but the way it outputs mouse in the games (helldivers 2, deep rock galactic rogue core, prey) feels weird and inconsistent

Steps for reproducing this issue:

1. launch any first person game, like helldivers 2, deep rock galactic rogue core, prey
2. try to set up gyro in steam controllers menu, like gyro to mouse or gyro to aim like in prey (prey has predetermined steam input names)
3. whatever settings are, it just doesn't work reliably, see the description of the issue. if video is needed, I can try to record the device itself and how it behaves.

Only proper issue I've seen anywhere acknowledging smth like this is ShadowBlip/InputPlumber#427, but I'm not a dev and I haven't tried 3.8 branch, for example and if there are fixes that I can test in it, I'm open to try.

I've tried resetting controllers through pins and messing with gyro output settings, no luck.

Okay, after I've updated to 3.8.6 beta, gyro stopped working for me altogether (it's visible in settings, it can be linked to controller/mouse, but it doesn't work at all any more).

I've tried switching channel back to stable, it boot into 3.7.x, it doesn't work there either any more. I've switched back to 3.8.x, the same result. I've factory reseted steam os (without killing user partition, sorry), no results.
I've tried resetting controllers via small pins reset buttons, no results.

Any ideas or help is appreciated, not sure what else I can even do aside from flashing recovery 3.7.x

can you try main?

[k-kruglov]

I've tried main by enabling dev mode and then switching to main in update channels.

It booted in 3.9.
Gyro doesn't work at all.
In Prey - right stick has like 100x sensitivity instead of normal. Controller settings (steam bindings) do not affect it. Gyro doesn't work.
Risk of rain 2 - no gyro there. Usual controls worked ok.

In settings, gyro is there, I can set it but nothing happens.
Gyro calibration option is also there. But it always just shows same progress bar for 2 seconds and says corrections found, nothing happens after that.

My only theory is that when I bought the device I simply installed Steamos as I did earlier on steam deck, wiping the device, and haven't done anything in Windows. Maybe some bios things or drivers had to be updated in Windows first?

Little update: I rolled back to 3.7.25 from 3.9, chosing both os update channel and client update channel to stable and gyro works there again (with issues but it does).

[k-kruglov]

For a test, updated again from 3.7.25 to 3.8.6 beta os, gyro stopped working.
Rolled back to 3.7.25 - gyro works.

Steam client was stable in both cases.

I have a Go 1 with the original firmware, so I'll troubleshoot the issue soon.
