I am comparing the behavior of "Compass" program from Smart Tools and the "natural" old-fashion physical compass and see the former is not working correctly. Is this a manufacturing defect or by design behavior?

Have you calibrated it? Normally you have to wave the device around in a figure 8 pattern or some other silly motion. – Matthew Read♦ May 15 '12 at 15:47
Should I run some program at the same time? – Suzan Cioc May 15 '12 at 15:54
I would assume the Compass app would have an option for this, but I'm not familiar with the Tab unfortunately. – Matthew Read♦ May 15 '12 at 15:58
