What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Start radar with a target at a distance from your location.
2. Turn around 360 degrees, stopping at each 90 degree interval.
3. Notice the inaccurate bearing at some of the intervals.
Occasionally this bug will also cause the target (blip) to race away in the
opposite direction as you approach it. On the other hand, the distance
indicator at the bottom will decrease properly showing the correct values
as you approach. Suggesting that the issue is with the bearing calculation
only.
Using RADAR 1.0. Problem verified by at least three other users.
(RADAR is really cool by the way.)

I've been doing some debugging of RADAR and have found that my device is giving
bad
orientation values. The bearing code in RADAR is solid. Someone can close this
issue.

Resolving. Note that IIRC Radar is using the compass, which on the G1 does
indeed
need to be calibrated periodically. (Error can accumulate in the part in use.)
Calibration involves waving the device around in a 3D figure-8 pattern; do
this for
around 30 seconds, and the compass accuracy should improve.

hi! for me and anyone else outhere.... how do i run the radar program on my g1?
i see it in the installed
applications..... would love functionality that would combine radar with google
maps so that i could switch
to radar view and would direct me toward waypoint....
ideas?

I used radar in my application and after calibrating it. The distance and the
bearing
seem incorrect. I am passing the lat and long of the point I am trying to reach
and
the distance on the radar would not change as well.
my code:
Intent i = new Intent("com.google.android.radar.SHOW_RADAR");
i.putExtra("latitude", locode.getLatitudeE6()/1E6);
i.putExtra("longitude", locode.getLongitudeE6()/1E6);
startActivity(i);
