Good day Falco,

just tested it on four devices and on all it works correctly. Anyway, I added in app simple test that should correctly convert the angle into range -180/+180 for pitch and roll values. So let me know in the next version if there still be any problem. Thanks

Thanks alot again, I wasn't sure if this is really necessary because I am not a friend of supporting every single weird firmeware bug.

Not sure if this is firmware bug at all. Values that app receives from the sensor are passed to various other functions and filters so it may be side effect of some of this post-process.
