Getting inconsistent results on Android

[MastaBaba]

On my Android phone, in both Firefox and Chrome, my compass (euler.alpha) is often off by 90 or 180 degrees. This seems to depend on the orientation at which I hold my phone when I open my browser.

How can I compensate for this?

You could keep track of the onorientationchange event

The discrepancy is not related to whether my phone is in landscape or portrait, but whether I open the app facing north, east, south or west.

I sadly don't remember whether I solved this.
