Rotate Mapbox Map depending of the phone current orientation

I'm trying to rotate the map to always face the direction we are moving towards to with MapBox Android. Currently, this is what I tried without success:

This is where I initialize the mapbox map:

mapView.getMapAsync(mapboxMap -> {
    Log.d(TAG, "Map is initialized");
    map = mapboxMap;
    map.getTrackingSettings().setMyBearingTrackingMode(MyBearingTracking.COMPASS);
});

And this is where I enable the location;

private void enableLocation(boolean enabled) {
    map.setMyLocationEnabled(enabled);
    if (enabled) {
        locationServices.addLocationListener(location -> {
            if (location != null) {
                // Move the map camera to where the user location is

                if (location.getBearing() != 0) {
                    map.setCameraPosition(new CameraPosition.Builder()
                            .target(new LatLng(location))
                            .bearing(location.getBearing())
                            .build());
                } else {
                    map.setCameraPosition(new CameraPosition.Builder()
                            .target(new LatLng(location))
                            .build());
                }
                Log.e(TAG, "location bearing:" + location.getBearing());
            }
        });
    }
}

I ended up using this on the last version of MapBox:

mapView.getMapAsync(mapboxMap -> {
    Log.d(TAG, "Map is initialized");
    map = mapboxMap;
    map.getTrackingSettings().setMyBearingTrackingMode(MyBearingTracking.TRACKING_FOLLOW);
});

Which version of the SDK are you using? I merged a compass listener fix last month that fixed the compass bearing tracking. You can read more about the issue here. Try updating to 4.2.0-beta.3 and use the first snippet you posted in your question. Let me know if this is the fix you were looking for!
