I was mostly saying to give it a good whack on the back and maybe that will help. the thing is pretty kid friendly so as long as you avoid the screen an buttons it will handle a hard impact no problem (I wouldn't recommend a hammer though, just use the part of you palm that's near the wrist).
And you might have to turn it off to recalibrate it, but whacking it while it's on should immediately tell you if it starts to work properly.
now it won't spin anymore, but it can't still track motion left/right only up/down.
