First of all, thanks, it was a very quick and easy to get it working. I commend thee :)

Second of all (and it's probably been asked before somewhere), while it does "work", it doesn't see to work very well. As in, crossing axis barely even works (I've heard this is an error, but I didn't think it'd be this bad), as well as how it seems to take a second before it registers the second touch.

It's nice to have, I just want to make sure that these problems aren't just something wrong with what I did, or if they are common problems.

All in all, thanks again!

Setting dualtouch up properly

Had a skim through the thread and can't see this in there (it's not added to the first post for a start) - there is another step required to get dualtouch working properly on the phone;

I had to place a file called "android.hardware.touchscreen.multitouch.xml" into /etc/permissions on the phone, and also add the following two lines to /system/build.prop;

ro.product.multi_touch_enabled=true
ro.product.max_num_touch=2

Full details of this, and links to download the xml file are in the first post of this thread;

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=921302

Once the xml file is added, the two lines appended to the build.prop and the phone rebooted then dualtouch will work in pretty much everything (Google maps, Dolphin Browser, Gallery etc) - haven't found an app it doesn't work in yet!
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] tophergrace:
The same method I used installing DT to my X10. Everything works perfect!! I wonder why SE did not release the DT globally. Why only to the Japs?...:rolleyes:
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] MrHassell:
Excellent!

Oh yes! This works so fine, so easy to flash using the tool naturally but was slightly confused about the - X10_1.0_Bin4ry_Dualtouch.ftf - file being in the same directory - i.e;

C:\flashtool\firmwares\dir /o

Directory of C:\flashtool\firmwares

26/01/2011 08:19 PM <DIR> .
26/01/2011 08:19 PM <DIR> ..
19/01/2011 10:15 PM <DIR> Dualtouch
26/01/2011 08:13 PM 6,001,572 X10_1.0_Bin4ry_Dualtouch.ftf
1 File(s) 6,001,572 bytes
3 Dir(s) 453,693,157,376 bytes free

Using Root explorer and editing build.prop to make use of the xml permissions file, ensuring that the permissions were set as described in the Guide by My_Immortal - with the great picture - all too cool for school!

<!-- This is the standard set of features for a touchscreen that supports
multitouch. -->
<permissions>
<feature name="android.hardware.touchscreen.multitouch" />
</permissions>

Works with maps, navigation and am still playing to see what else I can use it with... Gallery 3D? hrmmm big conversations around MediaScape / TimeScape needing to be updated as they were never designed to support multi-touch... Many thanks again :)
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] DerFux:
Thanks a lot!

Works perfectly for me withe the modifications.

(I have the rooted stock ROM 2.0A.0.504,

also big thanks to My_Immortal).

Works with Dolphin, Google Maps, Angry Birds, Quickpic, ...

Thanks alot, great work ...

[XPERIA X10 Android Development] wickednomad:
Well it's just plain weird what happened to my device then.

I tried to update / repair using SEUS and PC Companion but both said there were no updates available at this time. I made sure i was using an old stock wwe 1.6 firmware ir order to easily find new updates. Maybe faulty hardware?

Just a couple of remarks:

I can guarantee you that i didn't do anything other than following the instructions step by step, taking care not to miss anything.

I'm not one of those users that does something wrong in the middle of the process and try to find answers putting the fault on the dev / dev's work. I really don't know what happened and can assure you i'm pretty good on google searches lol Still can't find what might've gone wrong.

Anyways, i think the orderly thing to do now is send it to SE costumer service and see what they say about this issue.

If anyone has new ideas i would really appreciate it.

Cheers,

Gustavo
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] agentJBM:
It's there. It's in a link in the first post. It says if you have problems with stock apps go "here".
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] agentJBM:
Gustavo, You tried an "add on", so SEUS or PC Companion will still say you have the latest software. No need to change firmware to 1.6?!? Click "repair" software on SEUS or PCC.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] Bin4ry:
Hmn its really strange. Can you please try to flash a full 2.1 Generic ROM from the ones which are provided in the flashtool thread?

Do a full wipe (userdata wipe -> y ) and then try again! That will delete all data and bring you back to stock!

If the Touch still won't work you really have a hardware failure and it's only shown in a strange moment.

Sorry i can not help you more than that :/

Regards

Bin4ry
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] refract:
bumping this for a possible answer
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] Bin4ry:
No way for other phones, because signature is not hacked -> we cannot compile own kernel -> we have to wait for SE release or leak for a kernel with DT enabled.

and this kernel will not work, because the Toucscreen differs.

Sorry :/

Regards

[XPERIA X10 Android Development] benzmar:
I followed the same pattern and got it installed. I hope its working. How to check if my Dual Touch is fully working? I tried in Angry Birds to zoom-in and it's not zooming in like those who have multi-touch. Am I doing wrong anywhere?
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] mafijas:

[XPERIA X10 Android Development] dying4004:
so it is as same as multi touch in other high grade android phone??
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] agentJBM:
Again, due to hardware limitations this is technically only dualtouch, so your answer is no. But who is counting? I'm happy to have it. :)
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] wickednomad:
Thanks man, but it didn't work. I sent it to a SE service center just yesterday. Waitting for a reply from them.

As soon as the phone is ready and if i'm able to get them to tell me what happened, i'll post a reply here.

Cheers
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] Edinhox:
do you think this dualtouch thing could work for other xperians?
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] agentJBM:
Hopefully by now you have skimmed through this thread and found the answer to your question numerous times, including 8 posts before yours but just in case... No, X10 only. :-)
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] hramos20:
Is it just me or does Dualtouch kinda suck? I try playing on the SNES and GBA emulators and can't press two buttons at the same time because the touch points go to somewhere else rather than where my fingers are. I also used the Multitouch tester application in the market to check the touch points on the screen and they both wiggle arround the screen. One finger works ok in the tester but when I press the second one, both touch points start to wiggle around away from my fingers. Tried removing my silicone cover and screen protector with the same result. Any ideas?
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] uayxela:
Tried to download from the link given, but the link keep refer to a zip file and not a .ftf file.

[XPERIA X10 Android Development] tdiddy1987:
when copying the second file

FTF-File for Flashtool Version 0.2.4 or higher:

http://www-stud.uni-due.de/~sfanmakr/X10Flash/X10_1.0_Bin4ry_Dualtouch.ftf

Copy this File into the firmwares folder directly!

into the firmwares folder, should it be packed or unpacked?

when i press flash it doesnt show any firmwares and doesnt let me do anything even after i copied both files into the firmwares folder (i tried packed and unpacked)

what should i do? i have installed x rec and superuser busybox etc... im not sure what to do

should my SD card be mounted? not?

do i have to be connected in flash mode? maybe?
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] mafijas:
Anybody know why my screnn is freeze...
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] tdiddy1987:
ive tried for almost 6 days to get this to work and posted 2 times in different forums

why cant i get this to work?

i download all the files put and put them in the firmwares folder (in every possible combination possible) (and tried putting a .FTF .ftf extesion on the names, folders)

literally i have tried to reinstall the flashtool, put one folder in and not the other

there is no connect button on my flashtool, when i push flash nothing is in the window that opens except wipe user data

yes i am running as adminisrator

PLEEAAASSSEEEEEEE somebody tell me what i can do
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] iggy:
I have the same problem, I think we need a bit more information on how this should work, we are obviously missing something.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] rokuhs:
Guys, did you check the flash tool version before doing the flash. 0.2.4 or higher might need a different FtF-file. Im also failed at my first attemp due to using the older version of FT v0.2.3. If your using the latest version, make sure your rom is compatible with the drivers. If wan2 follow the guide. If needed to downgrade the rom version, then you have to. Sure u are missing sonething, perhaps the version of the flash tool or roms. hope that helps.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] rokuhs:
I forgot to mention that in window 7, disable the UAC. Right click on the flash tool and start the application as an administrator.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] lawless_benji:
this didnt help. the .ftf file doesnt download as a .ftf file. it downloads as a .zip file. anyone had success yet?
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] michael7168:
There is an explanation of how to turn your files into a ftf file somewhere on here. I use the flash tool and then I click on advanced, bundle creation and it will turn the sin files into ftf files

Hello guys ,,,, I understood is like this

Our X10 is after upgrade to 2.3.3 , we had already dual touch isn't it???

Why we need another dual touch ??? Can someone explain to me please:):):):)
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] Eugene1991:
This was for the older 2.1 firmware
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] The Realone:

Yes, the new ROM's already have dualtouch support. Absolutely no need for this addon anymore.

Move along people, nothing to see anymore! ;)

[XPERIA X10 Android Development] xenneco:
You have dualtouch in CM7! ;) , it's for official 2.1.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] arkedk:
No it's for very old official 2.1 firmwares.

I believe that all post-2.0.A.0.504 firmwares has dualtouch.

It was introduced in the Japanese firmware 2.0.1.B.0.19 and all following firmwares after had dual touch.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] omarhn:
multitouch?

hi guys....first of sorry for my english

my question is i have a x10 about 2 months ago i tried a lot of roms but i have no multitouch actually im with mooke os v0.3, but i tried feralab and others roms i use mooke because is the best on battery life and performance but anyway, i tried the multitoch tester from the play store and i have 2 points but if i move a finger to the right the second mark follow the first point...can anyone help me please =)
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] kivi90:
our x10 has no multitouch acctually not fully like most other phones.First we just had singeltouch and since any 2.1 SE Rom we have dualtouch so that we can use pinch to zoom and things like that.at the moment its not possible maybe when some devs can write new drivers. ( i dont know if its hardware problem or software if hardware there will never be multitouch, if software ,what i think cause we got upgrade from singel to dualtouch there is a possibility.) The thing you mentioned with the one point following the other is a bug caused by the bad crappy dualtouch it occurs when the two points would cross their lines and they get messed up. Roms like feralab and so on all have dualtouch and many improvements to increase to responsivness of the screen. so you wont get anything better than the roms that are around for now =)
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] omarhn:
thank you very much kivi90 for your explanation, is a bit disappointing to know that sony ericsson did not think that from the beginning.

No, that was what I had been doing wrong.....you have to click "flash" afterwards, if you've put the "dualtouch" folder inside the "firmwares" folder, the flashtool should display "kernel.sin"....! then you can easily flash DT onto your phone! hope this helps :D
