+ Improve sensor boot code. If sensors fail to self-test, the
+ device will still boot up and check for pad/idle modes. If
+ in idle mode, the device will warn the user with a distinct
+ beep, if in Pad mode, the unit will operate as best it
+ can. Also, the Z-axis accelerometer now uses the factory
+ calibration values instead of re-calibrating on the pad each
+ time. This avoids accidental boost detect when moving the
+ device around while in Pad mode.
