Android onSensorChanged not called on some devices

Question

This code registers an accelerometer listener:

mSensorManager = (SensorManager)ct.getSystemService(Context.SENSOR_SERVICE);
mAccelerometer = mSensorManager.getDefaultSensor(Sensor.TYPE_ACCELEROMETER);
mSensorManager.registerListener(this, mAccelerometer, SensorManager.SENSOR_DELAY_GAME);

But on the following devices, the callback onSensorChanged() is not fired.

samsung_SM-T210_KOT49H_19    
TCT_Vodafone 875_JRO03C_16   
samsung_SM-N9005_KOT49H_19   
samsung_SM-T211_KOT49H_19    
richview_6515_MocorDroid2.3.5_10

Are there any workarounds for this? (I need to know the tilt/inclination angle of the device).
