[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] altae:
I also doubt that your problem is in any way related to task29. Task 29 simply erases the internal storage of your phone and then that storage is once again recorded by the new rom.

I think you should look for the cause of your problem in a completely different direction. Maybe Opera, Youtube or whoever did indeed change something while you where updating/ reinstalling your rom. Such coincidencies happen. Or your old rom did not natively support Youtube and you altered something which you don't remeber anymore...

According to me it is technically almost impossible that task29 is the cause for your problem.

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] KrishnaPathak:
Hey guys.

I finally left the iOS world and traded an iPhone 3G for a HTC HD2 o_O.

It's jailbroken and unlocked, but I still use it on T-Mobile. The seller told me he flashed a custom Froyo 2.2 ROM to the device. And..there are 1000 installed apps. :D

My question is how I can update it, or flash any kind of custom Android ROM made for the HD2 to it..without losing the apps?

I'm a complete newbie at Android (Like I said, left the iOS world after two years)..so please be as simple as you can. :D
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] jibninjas:
1000 apps, yikes!
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] nn04:
Its going to be tough to update without losing your apps, your best bet is doing a nandroid backup (check the HD2 Android Nand subsection). The sticky in there is great, it really helped me out when I first got my HD2. Imo I would say that you should install Hyper-droid CM7. It is the fastest rom I've ever used and its stable as all hell. I wouldnt worry about losing the apps, they can always be downloaded again.

Are you sure it still does it on a fresh install of 2.1 stock? My problem with texting on bb 65 was on custom rom. I didn't have problems with text on official firmware, just data limited to 3G.

yes guys we are basicly outta luck and i';m really thinking now about selling this phone and get another one or quite the whole android thingy and get some cheap phone + psvita when it comes out for gaming needs x8 without DT sux @$$ pretty hard
[XPERIA X8 General] lazyguy91:
My computer's adb.exe cannot detect my phone, it keeps on showing 'device not found'.

Then I tried to use the terminal emulator, which shows nothing when I used the insmod thing and apparently the DT is not installed as I tried it with MT visualization.

Can anybody tell me what is wrong?? Really hope to get at least dual touch...
[XPERIA X8 General] doixanh:
So sell your f**kin phone and stop complaining. Who cares? Me? No! Us? No!

I don't understand why somebody doesn't want to use this good phone just because of single touch with pinch-zoom gesture (although it isn't perfect).

When you bought your phone nobody knew that we have DT/PinchZoom. You accepted that truth (single touch only) and bought your phone.

See, X8 has very good price with its hardware. If you want to play game, buy Xperia Play. Simple as that. Such a little brain.
[XPERIA X8 General] Titankahn:
it is it

Well there wouldnt be any problem if there wouldnt be other phones with wider range of functions at the same price ye its frustrating, but you cant change yar phone. I actually checked it today my phone go cheap synaptic too, but dosent matter i buy a cheap moto defy soon and that rules with price/performance in it's segment and anyone can say anything SE ruined its reputation with 0 support of its phones, at least im not willing to buy unsupported phones, well if it changes over time my opinion will also change.

Also great work devs, teh x8 lovein fans r liking it my friend go a cypress so hes in heaven. ^^

[XPERIA X8 General] edxmon:
It's not impossible. The digitizer can be removed, I have done it, I put all my phone internals is a custom black housing and had to remove the digitizer. If you can buy the Cypress digitizer, you can change it.

This is true, there are lots os places where you can buy a new touchscreen for about 15€, just search on ebay. The problem is that they don't specify the hardware. Maybe asking the seller..

And what about Nexus One ?

I guess that he have same family chip ( T1007A, http://www.ifixit.com/Teardown/Nexus-One-Teardown/1654/2 ).

So, if they have emulate DT, we can have too.

Sorry for my bad English.

Edit :

NEXUS ONE WIKI ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nexus_One )

Hardware

"The capacitive touchscreen which uses the Synaptics ClearPad 2000 sensor[60] supports multi-touch gestures limited to single finger input and 2x1D two finger gestures.["

=> Click on "2x1D two finger gestures" (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gesture-enhanced_single-touch )

"Gesture-Enhanced Single-Touch, also known as "Dual Control", "Gesture Touch" and often "Dual-Touch" describes the ability of a touchscreen to register certain two-finger gestures, even though the display hardware does not have full Dual-Touch capabilities.[1] A very common application is the pinch-to-zoom gesture, which allows the user to zoom in or out by moving two fingers farther apart or closer together while touching the display. "

First step do !

We have Pinch Zoom.

I hope step Two will be done ( fake DT )

[XPERIA X8 General] GHoSTABUD:
Hey guys,

I know we are all eager to have dual touch thats why i've done lots of digging

This website https://github.com/cyanogen/htc-kernel-msm7227-exp/commit/62382c4b7c097bc21f698aeec8f15fb91312f4ed shows a kernel driver for an htc device with msm7227 cpu and a synaptics t1021a digitizer from cm sources

I dont know much about programming but i went through it and it seems to be a dual touch driver

If some1 with expertise could look into it and see if its actually usefull cuz i didnt wanna bother any of the dev's

Anyhow thanks in advance

Edit: this a related code

https://github.com/cyanogen/htc-kernel-msm7227-exp/commit/a6d392222595695335cb712ffe8858c989b62683

I also found an android Google TV (Logitech Revue) that uses the same synaptics touchscreen AND has multi-touch... I have it's rom on my PC. Is there a way to, I don't know, get the touchscreen driver from the rom and port it to the X8? Like for example, is there a lib for touchscreen we can copy from the "lib" folder? What's it's name? I really wish someone would look into this.

[XPERIA X8 General] _JoaoCampos:
Yeah I've seen that, can't find anything similar on the phone. Btw I sent him PM but I'm not sure if the PM is being sent at all, there's no confirmation and it's not on the sent folder. Maybe I'm not allowed to PM someone 'cause I'm new.
[XPERIA X8 General] fifo171:
try to pm me and we will see :)
[XPERIA X8 General] dbts25:
If I am right touchscreen driver is in kernel not in ROM
[XPERIA X8 General] fifo171:
but dx somehow extracted it from there, and we just want to change the driver with another, but the problem is that we don't know where it is located :)
[XPERIA X8 General] dbts25:
But if driver is located in kernel you must make kernel with new driver and the main problem is that we can't use custom kernel because bootloader is still not bypassed. Maybe doixanh got driver from here:

copy module to /system/lib/modules

run terminal emulator, and type in the two command. If working, you have cypress, if not, then synaptics.
[XPERIA X8 General] Dyndulec:
Root your x8, download root explorer, download ax8mt.ko module from XDA, push it to system->lib->modules with root explorer, download terminal emulator, open it, write "su", allow root permission, then write "insmod /system/lib/modules/ax8mt.ko" and confirm. If you have Cypress, you should have DT by now, if you don't, then well, it won't work. And if it actually works, you will need to edit hwconfig to make it permanent, cuz if you activate the module through terminal emulator, it will work only till the next reboot. Pretty complex but hey, this way you'll know for sure. Somebody please correct me if I got something wrong here.

EDIT:

DX's ROMs (FroyoBread and GingerDX) have the x8gesture module already installed, so if you're using one of those ROMs and pinch to zoom doesn't work, that means you've got Cypress.

Is there an actual sensitivity difference between the two digitizers?

My X8 has a synaptics, and I find the phone has sensitivity issues, mainly around the sides and the bottom (it's really annoying for typing)

My X10 Mini Pro supports the true multitouch module, so I'm assuming it's cypress, and it has much better sensitivity.

Or do all X8s have sensitivity issues?
