accelerometer is bad
also how do you detect robot slippage
sounds like the proper solution is to forego using encoders for localization and instead attach a mouse to the bottom of the robot for localization.
slippage would be detected when the calculated position per a unit time is significantly different between the accelerometer and the encoders. I think a mouse sounds like a good idea to try.
Even with the a working NavX, the accelerometer is pretty "noisy". This noise is amplified when the double integral is taken, so I doubt that the accelerometer data will be accurate to any degree
