I'm creating 3D Compass application.

I'm using getOrientation method to get orientation (almost same implementation like here). If I place phone on the table it works well, but when top of the phone points to the sky, getOrientation starts giving really bad results. It gives values for Z axis between 0 to 180 degrees in a few real degrees. Is there any way how to suppress this behavior? I created a little video what describes problem (sorry for bad quality). You can download app here. No permissions needed.

Thanks in advance.
