LG G3 accelerometer not working, tried everything!

So my accelerometer on my brand new LG G3 stopped working a few weeks ago, I thought I could live with it but its a real nuisance now. I've gone through numerous posts on various Android forums but to no prevail; I've tried recalibrating the motion sensor but each time I try to my settings app crashes...? I've also tried various apps including spirit level apps which have a sensor reset option but it can't detect an accelerometer at all! Oh and I have turned auto-rotate on and off hundreds of times, as well as turning my phone on and off. Please help, I really don't want to do a factory reset.... :(

Welcome to Android Central! It's possible the sensor just plain failed. If the phone is still under warranty, contact LG.
