The compass seems to be around 150 degrees inaccurate on the CMF Phone 2 Pro. Doing the tap on the blue dot in Google Maps trick and calibrating seems to do nothing. Saw another couple of users on Reddit having the same issue with this one - I love my phone otherwise!
Compass Inaccuracy and no calibration in Google Maps
- (Edited)
Follow up, calibrated during day time, with the camera, and it works great. (figure of eight calibration - the only thing offered last night - does nothing)
EDIT: Inaccurate positioning and compass wrong when restarting Google Maps.

Hi, I had the same problem.
The compass was pointing completely in the opposite direction, 180 degrees off.
On Google maps and Mapy map.
Solution: downloaded a compass: Compass PixelProse SARL (it might be the same which one you download, I don’t know)
This is a compass with USE ADVANCED SENSOR turned off in the settings.
I then wrote 8s in the air with the phone. Fixed it immediately, I now have a good compass.
I had the same problem with Gmail. It didn’t want to display incoming mail even though I gave it all the permissions. The solution was to download another mail system (Aqua mail) and set it up. It worked perfectly. And incredibly, it fixed Gmail all by itself.
