No gyro/accel on FP4 - apps won't rotate and no WebVR

/e/OS Devices Fairphone

I’ve started developing using A-Frame and I’ve noticed my FP4 won’t react to movement, or present the WebVR tool when starting a program.

Digging a little deeper, when apps are asked to fullscreen they always rotate the same way, meaning they don’t have orientation awareness, and no apps will autorotate despite the feature being enabled in the menu.

Installing Arduino Science Journal I don’t see any motion sensors, although I’m fairly new to the app so may have missed their presence.

Is this a common occurence or a complete outlier? I’d definitely like to get this working reliably soon as my project depends on WebVR heavily for testing. TIA

I have exactly the same issue. FP4 with /e/os. No rotation movement.

I have installed SatStat - seems that no sensory data at all. Acceleration, rotation etc.

Is this normal, have i forgot to enable something?
