/odom does not reflect change in use_imu_heading of TurtleBot2

Hi, I'm curious about why useimuheading parameter change is not reflected to /odom topic of TurtleBot2.

I brought up my robot with:
roslaunch turtlebot_bringup minimal.launch

Then, rosparam set mobilebase/useimu_heading false But, it still read yaw from integration of imu yaw velocity.

However, this works in minimal.launch:
param name="/mobilebase/useimu_heading" value="false"

Thus, is it not able to reset useimuheading after launching kobuki_node?

Sorry if replying to old questions is bad form, but I had this same problem and got extremely frustrated with it. Well, after a few hours I realized the parameter path was slightly wrong. Like, one letter. Fixed that and it worked... So triple check that! For example, OP may have had a namespace so that the param name should have been something like /turtlebot/mobile_base/use_imu_heading, not just /mobile_base/use_imu_heading. Also, check that you did not forget the / at the end of the param tag, before the >.
