Any more news about multitouch? - XPERIA X8 General

Is there any progress in multi-touch? I heard you guys were trying to make it an Kernel Module and add it to the phone, can't you do it?(Just like you did with that X8 Pinch Gesture)

Wait until the X8 bootloader is bypassed, then we might the multi-touch with the other goodies.

Well, why to wait, when we can insert it as module, right?

Crack on then... look forward to seeing your work. There are so many threads about MT and DT they explain alot go read them. We got one finger pinch zoom what more do we need. Be patient.

Samsung i5700 hacked for multitouch, what does that mean for the X10?

Following on from THIS thread which raises a valid point imo...
The Galaxy Spica (also known as the i5700) has been blessed with multitouch support in some homebrew drivers that are making their way into homebrew kernels for homebrew ROMs, despite the official line that said phone doesn't support more than one finger at a time. Really drives home the point that "support" can refer both to the hardware's capability and the manufacturer's willingness to maximize it, doesn't it?

...MT may just be possible after all.

Or could mean it is possible, but will take a developer to realise it.
thought hardware cant support more than 1 finger at a time so regardless of what devs can come up with, its not gonna work??
or has someone identified what panel the x10 is using and im talking nonsense?

To my knowledge no one has discovered what model the touch panel is. Right now the official word from SE is that the hardware doesn't support it.

As far as i am concerned, i dont really care if we get MT or not. But i dont see why SE would release their top end android phone without putting a MT capable digitizer on it, whether they enable MT or not. Maybe they know it is capable but never enabled it because of copyright issues with crapple.
This is just another pointless thread, When we crack the boot loader and can put on Custom Roms we will find out if its a yes or a no, till then we can all debade the meanings of life and all the other types to topics that are there to waste time.

It might be, in your opinion, the point of the thread is to highlight that another handset of which it's maker said MT wasn't available now actually is thanks to a developer, so there just might be a possibility that other handsets sold with no MT support might not necessarily be because of a hardware issue.

they have to say something, if it supports, SE wont launch drivers for it so soon... Without know the model of the panel, no way to know.

I just love how you refer to it everytime without fail, as crapple.
I think the best way is asking a SE dev if x10 supports MT
Maybe SE will enable it on 2.1 if the hardware supports it....

Im closing this because it could have easily been put into the other multitouch debate threads

My experience with AOSP 2.1 v004

You can see a massive speed up with AOSP
Games are smoother
Loading times are faster
Finally i feel like my x10 is working for me instead of against me.
The disabled video decoder does make the cpu use alot more battery watching video.
Once the Dual touch driver comes to light we will be in heaven.
Now if i could only find a deep black theme.
Notice anything not working? I'm trying to decide if I want to learn everything I need to do to install this.

Perhaps, but I think it's appropriate in here without adding any clutter. I certainly appreciate the review. Despite loosely following the main thread myself, it's challenging to deal with all the scattered posts trying to troubleshoot, report problems, etc. I hope the mods can leave it here.

Likewise, the only thing stopping me using the ultralight version of AOSP 2.1 is the dial out loop. I am hanging for Jerpelea to get it sorted

Dude, calm down. It's more or less of a proof of concept. The devs made this very clear. Absolutely no one has any right to make a complaint whatsoever.
The devs don't owe anything to anyone.

There is NO WAY to get multitouch on our device. Also there is no normal dualtouch for now, only rough software emulation. Maybe some lucky genius could fix chip's firmware to force it return 2 finger coordinates.
Or just crack/bypass bootloader xd
And dual touch = smaller multitouch

dual touch is better then single and the emulated dual touch isn't to bad double tab is still better on browser tho as for the camera thats a big no no is fixed focus it will never get better :/

That is best dualtouch or multytouch depeds on the default paraments of each... can be set good or bad.
As for the camera there are good apps that shoorten the shot time, so you can take shot easier (photo is better too)
yes, you're right. let's hope that cracking the bootloader may give us dual/multi.
but dont let your hopes too high,
...i think that when the bootloader is cracked we will have dualtouch for sure but blagus said it drain too much cpu...
Are you sure that "for sure" ?

Might is a very tame word. Considering the device does not have the ability to handle anything more than dual touch, this is interesting news.
it will bring multi-touch, resolution 1024x768, blu-ray support.. etc..
and all that on 2.9.26 kernel build.. uv, oc too.. come on ppl be happy if that gb even moves with that time/medi-scape s**t...

Are you crazy? It will deliver 1440x900 resolution, 1080p recording at 60fps, 8mp cap lifted to 16.1mp, fps cap lifted to 58fps including 3D with some accents of time/mediapain.
Well, this was originally posted in brazilian Sony Ericsson official Blog, so I think we could give it a shot. A lot of people said X10 wouldn't support even dual touch, and now we have it. Maybe Sony Ericsson found a way to fix it, despite the hardware limitation, bypassing, I don't know. If SE said multitouch will come with the 2.3 update, I guess I will wait hopefully for that.
The source is in portuguese and I'm too lazy to translate it now, but you guys can believe what I'm saying or use a translator .
2.3 also brings: Full HD screen resolution, native .exe execution, CoD Black Ops pre-installed, slide out joypad like on Xperia Play, and Airplane mode finally turns phone into airplane of your choice, just like we all expected when seen it for the first time...
Also, don't forget about kexec exploit fix == stuck on SE's FW... But with all these functions, why would you want to switch to another ROM??? Enjoy
lol hahaha... iam so excited about the new GB update coming soon...
Read somewhere that the official.update will be released.at the end of July.

Nope. He hacked the CPU power to route it through a Galaxy S2
Pshhh dual core is sooo the day before, talk to me when you have 8 cores implemented
You need Galaxy S II, then with simple CPU reroute process via Wi-Fi, BT, J-Tag, USB and a few more solder points you connect X10 to Galaxy's CPU.
Then you take super glue, and stick the phones together. zdzihu will publish the pictures soon
It was easy, and during the process RSA key was found - it was a nice surprise to find all root, red and brown keys under the CPU on a piece of paper, hand-written with signature of SE's CEO

Devs can't use the existing camera libs from 2.1 ROM neither apply patch on them as they did for froyo, so they need to rewrite them for Gingerbread..but this is extremely difficult..

They have to rewrite libcamera cos they can't patch libcamera from stock sources. Thus, VGA for us until some genius rewrites/patches libcamera. And DDI, just let him try, it won't hurt. Besides, he's willing to spend time and effort so don't just act superior with your condescending and discouraging tone. Support those ppl who attempt to make a difference for ppl like us .
Froyobreads ROMs dont have VGA limit because they aren't Gingerbread/CM7 -> Froyobread based on CM6 (in CM6 camera have no limits).
Gingerbread have limits because devs schould edit ROM source to fix them. This is so dificult. We just waiting .

So are devs are working on it? i see the dev only developing froyo, also i know Froyobread is not VGA limited, it just a Froyo that customized to be like Gingerbread, but really, i hate the rom. I felt the rom has a minus point, but i can't find it.
DDI, if u said better use froyo, use by yourself! your post just make my mood low!
