Dualtouch finally! :) - Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini

I stumbled in a way to make dualtouch work on my x10 mini
My thanks to slade87, doixanh and nobodyAtall.
Cause i'm very very noob in android the only way i managed to install this was:
-X10 mini rooted
-Root explorer
-download multitouch.zip from this post
-copied files cy8ctma300_ser.ko and x8gesture.ko to /system/lib/modules
-copied files android.hardware.touchscreen.multitouch.distinct.xml and android.hardware.touchscreen.multitouch.xml to /system/etc/permissions
-edited file hw_config.sh in folder /system/etc
-wrote
# dx: our modded touchscreen driver
insmod /system/lib/modules/x8gesture.ko
insmod /system/lib/modules/cy8ctma300_ser.ko
sleep 1
-Rebooted the phone
DUN!!
Sooorrry
As posted by moedjs, it is really not needed some steps in this tutorial , now it goes this way.
-X10 mini rooted
-Root explorer
-download multitouch.zip from this post
-copied file x8gesture.ko to /system/lib/modules
-edited file hw_config.sh in folder /system/etc
-wrote
# dx: our modded touchscreen driver
insmod /system/lib/modules/x8gesture.ko
sleep 1
-Rebooted the phone
DUN!!

easy man. it's great dat u enabled dualtouch on ur cell. but a kind kind request, please post these in the "general" forum....dis sub thread is only for the "development".
try out an custom ROM available in our forum. OUR DEVS ARE THE BEST. most of the ROMs are stable, have an upgraded version of android and have dual touch enabled by default
next time onward please post this kind of posts in general forum.

I think that this is the correct forum because this is a development of android's x10 mini.
Another thing. This is real dualtouch as x10 mini pro has or is the simulated pinch zoom?

---

Dual touch will never work, it's a HARDWARE limitation people! RTFM!! Fake dual touch is all we can ever have. Research that module you tried installing... its been around for a while... again RTFM!! The mini devs are actually sick of explaining this to people because they don't RTFM!

no, it ISN'T!!!!...dis dual touch module is out for AGES!!!!and we have an "actual" original thread dealing with this.
this thread is a simulation of that and should find it's place in the general forum and not here!!!!!...and one more thing....
xperia x10 mini is not capable of supporting more than 1 finger!!!!it can NEVER EVER EVER EVER EVER HAVE ACTUAL DUAL TOUCH ....it is just a digitizer calibration which fakes the display driver with another "fake" "virtual" interaction point!!!!
sorry if i bothered anybody, did not mean 2.

Erm..
Read:
YOU CAN NOT HAVE DUALTOUCH ON A DIGITIZER THAT ONLY SUPPORTS SINGLE TOUCH + PINCH ZOOM!
WE CAN NEVER EVER EVER EVER EVER EVER EVER EVER HAVE REAL DUAL TOUCH UNLESS SOMEONE SWITCHES THE DIGITIZER FOR ONE THAT DOES SUPPORT DUALTOUCH.
CAPICHE?!

---

It worked
Thankx man it worked on my mini thanks..............actually i had dual touch but u made it easy by editing all files.......

---

ehm......... fake or real dualtouch??

---

muito obrigado melhorou meu fake dual touch

---

I noticed the improvement!
Thanks for sharing!

---

Something better than nothing

---

First, sorry if i didn't clarify everything at first.
This is a fake dualtouch (like it was already said in this thread, xperia x10 mini doesn't support dualtouch by hardware) and that i only managed to get it working.
I wanted to share the way i made it work because the info i collected wasn't clear to make it work.
This is a fake dualtouch like slade87's Dualtouch for the mini pro, for me works very good.

Hansoliv, this is a very good fake doual touch none the less!
For me, its way better than the other in this forum.
Its not quite smooth, but much better than not having it.

Then you're wrong :/

The digitizer is manufactured by Synaptics, with the main touch screen controller labeled as T1021A 1 0942 AC0P876.
this IS multitouch capable hardware, but software limited due to kernel dependencies

this is a myth. discussed in many places. its not possible to confirm/negate this until spl/boot miniloader is finally ready and you can hack around with a custom kernel.
but: in my country a kernel dev gets something like 60-100$/hour so better work 3 hours and buy the new xperia mini.
so good luck with this i got now an xperia mini with an custom kernel
