A forum search found some people whose compass seems to be srong by some degrees or uncalibrated, but I haven't seen anybody where it just did not respond.

Powering off/on (removing battery) doesn't seem to help.

Is there any way to test the compass in my G1, or any way to reset it?

Thank you!
Sounds like you need to call the experts at the tech support for your provider. If it's not responding in any app, then it's likely broken and may need to be replaced, or the whole handset may need replacement.
