Is there some kind of prefix for the JavaScript DeviceMotionEvent in the Chrome browser for Android?
Firefox Mobile supports it, but Chrome doesn't (tested on Xperia S and Nexus 4).
Here's the code i use:
if (window.DeviceMotionEvent) {
window.addEventListener('devicemotion', deviceMotionHandler, false);
} else {
$( "#divid" ).text( "DeviceMotion NOT supported" );
}
Chrome Version: 29.0.1547.72
Firefox Version: 24.0
Android Version: 4.3 (Nexus 4) and 4.1 (Xperia S)
PS: DeviceOrientationEvent is working well in Chrome and Firefox Mobile
Just found a way to get it to work:
I downloaded the Beta Version of Chrome (30.0.1599.81) for Android. The DeviceMotion event is supported there.
