It does 10

You can test it with Plasma Lamp from the market. A good way to test your 10 touches, and a pretty fun game as well.

[Q] Is our display only Dual-Touch?

I have dowloaded several apps claiming to be multi-touch and have only managed to use 2 fingers at once. So i thought i would download a test app designed to recognise more than 2 fingers. In the market it shows it recognising 5. so is the HD2 not cabable of recognising more than 2 fingers or is it a software limitation?
I have made a video of my HD2 (EU AUO Panel).

correct it isnt capable of using more than 2 finger points
Why would you need more then two fingers?

For the piano :O. Plus i just don't like having limits especially when the limit is 2 :/.
2 point multi-touch aka dual touch

5 inch screen & only 2 multi touch point support?

I'm running StreakDroid and haven't replaced any kernels and just tested how many multi touch points this mini tablet supports.
Sad to say, it only supports 2 multi touch points, pretty sorry for a device with such a nice big 5 inch LCD display!
Anyone getting anything different?
Is this being limited by the hardware or software?
I have yet to encounter a time when I have needed more than two... So pretty sorry for a 5" screen? Can you instead tell me when you would need more than two?

Using a piano or guitar app? I also just downloaded 4 player reactor which is perfect for a phone this size.
I think its a software limitation. I've never thought I needed more but I do play 2 player reactor and was thinking of getting 4 as both games are truly great on the 5" screen. But guess that's out or the question now.

Also, playing some games ... would be nice to have a third:
Joystick input, accelerator input, fire gun input = need 3 inputs
Movement, Look, Fire = 3 inputs
So, I could see a few places where having more than 2 inputs is nice.

Capable of multitouch

I read that well, we are limited to 2 fingers because of kernel headers, so nothing to be done there.
But I wanted to state that the controller in the Atrix is capable of "ture 12-bit multiple touch with independent XY tracking for up to 10 concurrent touches in real time with touch size reporting". source
That does not only mean we got up to 10 touches capacity, but that features that involve touch size are available. That means that when-if the bootloader gets cracked-sidestepped we could enable function to lock the screen like the Zune, where putting a big touch size locks the screen. A very useful thing especially if you put it in your pocket (facing your leg)

Forgive my ignorance, but what's the use of more than 2 fingers touching the screen?
I've bought my Atrix but haven't started using it yet , wanna root, install custom and invisible shield b4

There are quite a few games that require 3+ simultaneous touches.

I heard this from another forum member and haven't tried it, but I believe Cut the Rope can use more than two touches. Is it even on the Market though...?
I haven't seen any apps/games that use more than 2 touches, but I'm sure there is good potential for some.
Basically it would be like a Apple touch pad for using swipe, double swipe or triple swipe.
I do, was trying to play xenogears on FPse earlier on, then I realise I'm stuck at the bloody forest part when u need to simultaneously press O and triangle as well as the directional pad to jump onto the huge tree trunk in order to move on to the next area.
SNES, PSX, GENESIS and other emulators may require 3+ touch.

[Request] latest YouTube apk before revamp

Basically I want the YouTube apk just before the 10 inch tab revamp. I like the old 10 inch but on the n7 the new one doesn't fit on screen properly.

New layout is horrible especially on a 10 inch screen. Also it no longer has a full screen button.
Just open up the app in settings and click on uninstall updates to get the old one back.

Another app to add to the "Do not Update" list along with BBC News and Dolphin Browser where the Updated versions are not as good as the originals.
Do people who designs these things actually think about anything they do? Horrendous update.

Windows 8 Gestures with Splashtop

Has anyone gotten this to work. I have heard that some people have gotten it to work and some reviews on google play say it works perfectly. The video it shows you should be able to switch between windows 8 gestures/splashtop gestures.
I installed Windows 8 the other day and I'm loving it. But splashtop says windows 8 gestures work but I don't see that option. I've installed/re-installed the app on my tablet and the pc streamer. I've gone through all the settings and haven't found it either. Has anyone here successfully got it working?
Thanks.

There's no option for Win 8 gestures, they just work.

This video says otherwise.

It doesn't work natively like it should. Swiping just moves the cursor. The only way I can semi swipe is doing hold and drag mode and using two or three fingers. The the way the surface tablets work and the video works isn't working that way.
Everything is updated. I'm sorry if I sound stupid and if it's supposed to just work. But for some reason it does not for me.
I have the same problem. No Windows 8 touchscreen mode like others say.

It does work I have it. At first its cool but after a while gets boring. If you want windows 8 on a tablet get a windows 8 tablet . Which is exactly waht im about to do sell my tf300 And buy me a surface notjing beats having the real thing.

It's like the other guy says there is no option and it just natively doesn't work. The smoothness of android and swiping between screens or using the browser is perfect. The only way I can somewhat imitate it on windows 8 splashtop is to use two fingers to scroll and I think 3 to swipe across the screen and even then it's not very fluid.
By any chance did you just update to the newest firmware or are you on the previous one or an earlier one? I updated mine. But you are correct. I suppose if you really want the true windows experience get a windows 8 tablet/surface rt/ or surface pro. Eventually I probably will but I still really like android.
Works for me, it's just slow and laggy
