Add this line under insmod line in Hw_config.sh

echo "desire" > /sys/devices/platform/i2c-adapter/i2c-0/0-0024/mode

For other modes just edit the word between "" with: original, original_tid, andyx ... etc.

And about that PC tool for editing Hw_config.sh

So make sure you downloaded the right file ;)
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] zhuhang:
Yes.zip for me. I also connected. In debug mode too. Don't know what prob. I just open the exe right?

Sent from my X8 CM6 Floyo 0. 25
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] dzadzev:
Yes, just start Hw_Config Editor.exe ...

Make sure you have installed Java on your PC
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] zhuhang:
weird... everything i had, i even successfully run adb commands and use ddms.bat

but this exe just dont work...
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] zhuhang:
now mine is working, but if i want to change mode, after i type the command in adb shell, and mode changed, straight away it take effect? because i cant see any difference between modes now.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] deedii:
Im comfused either how to change mode. Whaa im i that dumb not to figure it out easily. A lil help guys.mwuah thanks.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] ahmedz_1991:
it's easy just type in terminal:

echo "[COLOR="Red"]??????[/COLOR]" > /sys/devices/platform/i2c-adapter/i2c-0/0-0024/mode

and replace ????? with the mode name and u're done, no need to reboot.

if u want to make sure type dmesg in terminal u'll find a line about changing mode at bottom
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] zhuhang:
After ure satisfy with the mode, add the same line to hw_config.sh

if I'm not mistaken x8mddi and ax8mt cant be put together is it true?can anyone check it?
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] ahmedz_1991:
why not ?? insmod both files into hw_config. i successfully installed ax8mt on both cm6 and cm7 based roms that were already using x8mddi
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] kueh9:
check dmesg you will have something like this "mddi_on: clk_set_min_rate failed"
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] deedii:
so which one works best in our lovely x8? btw thanks much. x0x0
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] zhuhang:
touch driver?

of course cypress, its dual touch.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] azeunkn0wn:
i can't put ax8mt on my phone correctly via hw_config...

what i do is...

rename ax8mt.ko to x8gesture.ko and replace the original x8gesture.ko on modules folder.

i am using froyobread.. and it works well.

its easier.. we don't use X8gesture.ko anyway..

:)
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] dmcb123:
what do you get in dmesg for mddi if you dont have ax8mt installed?
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] kueh9:
sorry my mistake..its seem installed or uninstalled the module give the same result..:D
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] AndroidAero:
I love this module!!!
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] viper001:
It would only work if you have a cypress. ;-)

Sent from my TI99 4A
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] viper001:
It depends on what touch display you have.

1st page show you how to determine which. Cypress or Synaptic.

[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] dmcb123:
what is the best mode for this module? and what are the differences?
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] AntwnhsAnt:
Have anyone tried this module on the new froyobread (v020)??

If yes, which mode is the best (from v005)??

thanks in advance! :)
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] AntwnhsAnt:
She meant what mode! Not what module..

@deedii

It depends on what ROM you are using.. For xGing better is the Andyx mode which is the default!
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] AndroidAero:
It works in FB 19

I'm now updating to v20.

I didn't change the mode and for me it works perfect!

Edit: It works perfect in v20 ;D
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] Danmikee:
When installing this The Init Mod Says Failed But file exists? :) ? quick help?

EDIT: Just renamed the Module to the X8gesture one .. Works now :)
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] Dexter_prog:
I've just installed it to my X8. It works flawlessly :) Great job!

The only thing was that I had to run the insmeg command from my computer (vía adb using a usb cable) because the Terminal from my phone couldn't open the file for some reason.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] skyboyextreme:
will i'm kind of sad because SE charged the same amount of money for the synpatics and cybress devices shame on sony erricsson the lower end single touch device (synaptics version) should have retailed for less and labeled as x8 single touch maybe while the cybress x8 should have retailed for it's normal price (that we both paid) and labeled as x8 multi touch and they should have let the user choose the version that he likes based on his budget THE BOTTOM LINE IS THEY CHEATED US AND SOLD US THE X8 SYNAPTICS LOW END CHIP FOR THE PRICE OF THE PREMIUM MULTITOUCH CHIP shame on them i was thinking about getting the new mini but now i just don't want to give them not another single penny and i so hope that they choke over the amount of money that they have cheated from me for the same kind of money they gave u a better device and gave me a less better device and labeled both devices under the same "model name" wish they close soon those %@#$#@%$#%^$#% , damn !
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] Asycid:
Hmm.. ok, you made a point here. I totally agree. By the way isn't it against law in this case? Think of the game consoles: Xbox360 came out in three types: arcade, elite, etc. Shouldn't SE must do this with this phone? This is really annoying.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] skowrone:
omg, use some punctuation ... ;]
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] skyboyextreme:
watever i'm just done with this company not getting the new mini and i may quite the whole android thingy because of them those cheaters who in the world produce "A given device" while it's units are not identical i.e "same device" with different components this is just an epic fail at their end.....

You are a crazy MAN, you made our Cypress a multitouch screen, i am really really happy now, it reacts at every direction, i will test it on games right now an also i will make Youtube video if you allow me. One question.....is there any way to make it load on boot or we will have to install on every reboot of the CYPRESSdigitizerkickingSYNAPTICSdigitizerassesX8 phone?
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] crinoz:
Just in time for my first root :)

Works perferct
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] D4rKn3sSyS:
Ok guys, i made this bat, will let you choose between install permanently or temporal, also a option to reboot phone.

Instructions, unzip and run Dualtouch Installer.bat, then choose your option!, of course phone connected and usb debugging on!

Easy no ?

Oh btw, only for windows, or a Bat compatible linux :D

EDIT, AnDyX, feel free to use this tool on your first post ;)

[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] darkfrmr:
omg! it really works! real dual touch in x8 :D!!

thank you very much andyx for this development

waiting for final release ;)
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] Koulis2000:
It works perfect with with N.O.V.A. and PES 2011....tomorrow i'm gonna test it on more games. Only bugs are that it works better when u don't leave your finger, but you don't really feel it. Oh and another bug that screen turns off sometimes but it is gonna be fixed(i think). And as I said i will try to make a Youtube video to show you how it work both on games and applications. And it really don't requires more pressure at one finger or pressure recognition and **** like this. It feels really real and realistic and believe me it's reality. One last thing.....on a post on X8 forums someone said that Cypress digitizer would have better multitouch characteristics than Synapticts if there was a module to enable these characteristics, and he was right, now it exists and it is better(I think as everything shows that). I will try to make a video as I said above twice and someone with Syaptics will confirm which is better.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] Imppy:

if the fake dual touch module from dox works, then this won't work...simple as that...
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] proadi96:
I have a question... i have synaptics and im using v007 from doixanh but i dont know What game mode give me... Can someone explain me please
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] kueh9:
f**king sh*t!!!it works!!!ur the man!!!!thx man!!
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] Koulis2000:
GreatApo my friend just enter this line( dmesg | grep "cyttsp-i2c" )(i don't know how to make this rectangle in which they put line soooo) on Terminal Emulator and tell me what you see and i tell you if you have Cypress or Synaptics.......you can also see that by the date you bought your phone(although i am not sure).....if it's after February the date you bought your phone then it's pretty sure that you have Cypress digitizer. If it's also Black and you bought it after February it's 95% that you have Cypress.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] anmiman:
hell yeah...thanks dude..it works..:D
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] ahmedz_1991:
I always knew that eventually Cypress users will get it; it works like a charm for me; a complete real MT here YEAAAAAAAAAAAAH

@ AnDyX : thank u man, u're my hero

don't mean to be rude but i heard that the Cypress can read four touches (4 sensors ), Could u check it out ??

@ D4rKn3sSyS : thank u for the .bat; i hate using terminal in touchscreens ;)

EDIT:

after some testing: when u remove ur second finger the first one doesn't read unless first is moved or second is put anywhere. i'm sure it an easy job to fix considering this is still v001
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] kuyagaol:
yes it really works. thanx AnDyX..

I'm always wonder how its feel.. now there goes the jealousy :D

n permission to put 2 of ur module in my next rom man.

You made a great job.

Hey Sir! I got a problem. before i tried the command when i was still on stock.

then i received this

But now that i'm on GingerDX whenever i type the command

nothing shows up.

is my phone the cypress ype? or not?

tried rebooting phone. still the same
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] DeFcOn:
what this "PROBLEM"?
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] Pororo:
^

^that's the problem sir.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] DeFcOn:
i have the same problem. If in stock rom its write

cyttsp_i2c_probe: Successful registration cyttsp-i2c

, then you dont need to check what digitizer you have....you have CYPRESS;)
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] Dare-Devil Inside:
Does pinch zoom works for you? Check in gallery, or browser or dowload multitouch visualiser.

If it work you got synaptics
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] Pororo:
Thanks bro!
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] Pororo:
Oh and is this a good idea? this other guy said it..

can that work?
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] DeFcOn:
yes it's work if you rename ax8mt.ko to x8gesture.ko and replace in /system/lib/modules/;)
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] Pororo:
Thanks again.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] Pororo:
I cant remove the original x8gesture.ko "file could not be deleted/moved/rename"

Hello everybody, I read the ENTIRE thread TWO times (please, clean it from all the useless post since is very difficult for a new reader to find informations) and installed the latest version on the stock 2.1 rom setting the permission in the explained way.

Actually I have multitouch everywhere (maps, stock browser, facebook, games) but I cannot zoom with multitouch in the stock gallery. Is it normal to have this problem just in the gallery or there could else to do to enable MT everywhere? Thank you very much! :)
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] doixanh:
I think it's a problem of stock gallery. I couldn't zoom with x8gesture also.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] Dexter_prog:
I can. I'm using gingerDXv008 and I have a Cypress digitizer. He is missing something in the installation steps or he doesn't have a Cypress digitizer

[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] DougTheModder:
Yeah, moreover, it is working almost everywhere and fine, except from the stock gallery. I guess there is a different gallery on GingerDX. Anyone else using stock 2.1 can confirm this? Thanks

That happened to me as well :D
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] mr-tical:
I've got the same on GDX, on stock 2.1 shows Cypress Detected, here on GDX not.

Just launch the module with insmod command and i'm 99% sure that you have Cypress.

After insmod check with https://market.android.com/details?id=org.metalev.multitouch.visualizer2&feature=search_result, i think it will work for both of you.

[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] biscoitu:
I think it will work if you have the right baseband for it. Try Updating your phone with SEUS, than you ROOT your device and push the module and load it by editing hw_config.sh on /system/etc :)

Nice

Well I have already rooted my cellphone with Superoneclick, I´ll investigate more about my baseband and the xRecovery thing I´ll have to install it in the old fashion way, the new way didn't worked for me, but I still want to know if it work with the Eclair ill investigate more about that :D
