    Whatever their value was at the moment I open the keyboard, they will return the same after even if my Android device is moved around.

    many values like:
    AttitudeSensor.current.attitude.ReadValue()
    Accelerometer.current.acceleration.ReadValue()
    LinearAccelerationSensor.current.acceleration.ReadValue()

    (And Gyroscope.current.angularVelocity.ReadValue() rarely works for me (even before opening keyboard), which I posted in previous thread)

    Im using Unity 2020.1.10f1, & we are migrating to the new InputSystem.

    Also happens when the app loses focus!

    I made a workaround! I disable the sensor in OnApplicationFocus(false) and re-enable it OnApplicationFocus(true).
