multi touch is not sensitive at all because we don't have one. what we have is pinch to zoom capabilities. legend does not have true multi touch support.

Well, it has at least _some_ multitouch support. I can tell by trying Ethereal Dialpad with the nightsky skin. It clearly registers when I touch the screen with two fingers, although it is very far from perfect, and it's absolutely worthless when the fingers are close to each other or when you are moving them (some movements are fine, but sometimes it goes completely wrong, try it yourself to see what i mean).
Maybe there's better program to visualize multitouch, but I haven't seen any
EDIT: there are several program on the market that test multitouch, installing now (-:

My gameboid app utilizes multi touch seamlessly...

I don't know why you would want the stock one when it doesn't even have multi-touch...
Just install smartkeyboard pro, it looks exactly like the stock keyboard but with multi touch, plus some other goodies.

thats probably why the stock android keyboard doesnt work. it doesnt support multi touch lol i never would have thought that.
s10shane I did that also and it force closed but its not because of the multitouch because the g2 has a multitouch chip and still runs it..

I may be missing something, but I believe my 4g already has the stock keyboard -- you just press and hold in any text input field, choose "Input Method", and select "Touch Input" -- that seems as close to a stock android keyboard as any I've seen.
I just installed it as well. I like the options it gives for customization but the prediction doesn't match htc's. At least not with changing the settings I have found.
I like sense's keyboard and how it shows the suggested words as I am typing. Skpro doesn't seem to have that option.
I'm willing to keep smart keyboard just because it wasn't that expensive but I may need longer to appreciate it.

[Q] How many simultaneous touches?

According to specification Vega has projective capacitive multitouch panel. So the question is: how many simultaneous touches does the device support? Is it a real multitouch panel or just dualtouch?
I've testet this with a multitouch test app and it only recognize 2 points. If there are more then two fingers on the screen it doesn't respont to any movement.
Sent from my PoV mobii
its a 2 touch, dual-touch screen like all HTC phones (including nexus one) up to and including the Desire.
Yep only two. Shame, my HTC desire hd recognizes four.
Shame I was hoping to use all my fingers and toes.
is they any software or application which use more than 2 touches ?

Multi touch for android rom?

Part of the reason for me to root was multi touch. Is there a rom on that for play?
Sent from my R800i using XDA App
The play has a 4-point multitouch screen and a 2-point touchpad. What do you mean that you rooted your phone for multi touch?

By multi touch I mean like on iPhone. Where you can use 2 fingers at the same time to type. If you use 2 thumbs on your plays keyboard your only clicking 1 and its messy

and why would you wanna do that?
Actually I know what he means (after he explained).
On the iphone it types in the order you PRESS the letters.
On the xplay it types in the order you LIFT your fingers.
So if you press H E but lift the E finger before, it'll appear EH.
Hope that clears it up a little bit, I thought it was just me and I just tried to lift my fingers before pressing again, but checking on an iphone just now I realized it's easier over there. Perhaps it was just the heat of the moment haha.
Don't notice it that much because I use Swype.

same here, works like a charm
Well then it looks like he needs a keyboard that supports multitouch. The xperia play supports multitouch already I personally use Swype keyboard but I don't use the slide part and not the tapping so I don't know if it works for you. Try out some android keyboards and see what you like.
But as said above the Xperia play can take up to 4 finger at a time and a developer is planning on expanding it up to 10.
Try this application it proves that the Xperia play supports 4 fingers.
Multi Touch Tester
This is not ios where you are locked to one single keyboard my friend
There is a thing called android market where you can download apps from
There are tons of keyboards available one or the other will have what you are looking for

Swype is not on the market. Its here. Sign up and they will send you the download link. Takes a while to get used to but once you do it is way faster than normal typing.
Swype is far superior to a regular keyboard. One of the many reasons I prefer android to ios or blackberry.

I just tested. Smart Keyboard Pro, that I use, has that feature. And even has iPhone skin

I installed Swype. I had it on my x10 mini pro but I liked more to type with the physical keyboard.
Swype writes in the order you press (just like the iphone), and not in the order you lift (stock keyboard for us). It's weird because it's obvious that first key pressed should be written, stock keyboard is crazy lol

Mate, you're meant to swype with swype, not type! Lol

Oh I know but sometimes you need to type out the words if you know they wont be in the dictionary like codes, emails, passwords, etc.
The only thing I don't like is deleting words, it's very slow and if I press backspace a lot it goes slow and if I hit it too many times it will delete more than I wanted.

Boosting Touch Sensitivity

Has anyone found a way to do this? At times my screen just doesn't want to cooperate!
Sent from my Kindle Fire using xda premium
The problem is your rom, usually CM9 roms. Just update to the lastest version or go back to CM7
The Ilitek Touch Utility available on the market has a calibration tool which seems to have slightly improved my panel's touch sensitivity, every bit helps...Ilitek makes the touchpanel controller used in the KF.

I use this as well. Works great if you set it to "Super Optimized" and increase the sensitivity to above 60.

Multitouch change

I wanna make my hd2 recognize 3-4 fingers.how to do this?
Sent from my NexusHD2 using xda premium
HD2 is a 2009 model that does not support multi touch function.
get those newer models that can even have 5 point touch functions
5? I'm reasonably sure it goes up to 20, although you'd never use that many.
Hello GRG13,
the prime version of Nova Launcher supports multi touch features. Ah, I just saw but only up to 2 fingers.
Best regards

Software isn't the problem, it's the hardware. Arguably the decision to have this hardware was based on the WinMo software which didn't use/support multitouch (not sure about that but I'm just guessing here) and HTC chose that they didn't need a particularly good screen.
