[Q]enabling more multitouch points - Motorola Droid X2

i noticed the droid x2 only supports two touch points is it possible to enable more like some devices seem to be able to?

That would be really nice! Would make emulators a lot more playable.

Took down this information because it was causing some people to lose touch response. Until we figure out why that is, I'm leaving it off.

You can fix this yourself, it is really easy... actually I'm already doing this in some Atrix ports that I am working on, because while looking through portable ROM's I found a mod to enable more multitouch points! You can do it right on your phone, with something like Root Explorer that has a built-in text editor and can remount your /system read-write. If you can't mount within your app just do mount -o remount,rw /dev/block/mmcblk0p12 /system in terminal emulator or adb.
The files you need to modify are:
/system/etc/touchpad/21/touchpad.cfg
and
/system/etc/touchpad/22/touchpad.cfg
Open both of those up and modify this line NUMTOUCH=2 to NUMTOUCH=10. That should get 4 for sure, and 5 points I think.
Also, you might try adding:
ro.product.max_num_touch=5
to your build.prop, in addition, just in case.

Could you add all of these brilliant things to the roms?

Watch out, just tried these edits & had restore system from my nandroid cuz I lost all touch response.

Wow this is exactly like the ATRIX. Im sure if you dig up the flushable zip and with very little modification, if any, you could use that

I modified the .cfg files, but still only have two inputs. I didn't add the line to the build.prop, but I will tomorrow (after making a nandroid, just in case) and see if that works. I did notice that, in addition to the normal .cfg files, there's now .cfg.bak files in the folders as well. Is that just a result of me editing the others?

doesnt seem to work for me,I edited the touchpad files first and restarted and I lost a touch point, so it only recognized one point, then I tried adding in the build prop edit,just not sure where to put it exactly, so I just added it in near the top where the ro.products are

After restarting this morning, I've lost all touch points. Any way to fix this without nandroiding?

I don't think so, but if you do an advanced restore you can just load the system partition backup w/o affecting your total setup. When I did it last night it just put me back to square one before I debloated, but apps & data were undisturbed.

This is really weird, I'm running the exact same mod without an issue. Not sure what is going on.

Same Here When Editing Both Cfg And Build.Prop Lost All Touchscreen Response.

You should be able to fix it with the adb if you have USB Debugging enabled, though very carefully.

I just changed the touchpad values, and didn't do anything to the build.prop and I'm fine.

I did the mod.
I only have a single touch point, so I'll be undoing it.

you'd have to look into the touch controller we have in our phones, if they're all the same. They may not support more than 2 inputs.
Example: on the Droid Incredible which i had, there were 2 different controllers used, one supported up to 10, the other only 2.

Is there any progress on this? It would be great to have a solid way to increase the number of touch points.

Actually it doesn't. We kinda have to work around a few of the flaws that our recovery has to get it to work "properly." If we ever got CWR, we'd have a bit easier time flashing ROMs. Plus, it's built a lot better, and is more stable.
I have it. However, If the phone is powered down, when I plug it in it boots into recovery. Turn off the phone while plugged in, and it reboots into recovery. Other than that little irritation, it works great.
"You have it' is that system recovery? On a X2? The std one?
Or do you mean the Bionic version?

Maybe as you are a dev you know things I don't, but to say an official version is more stable when it doesn't exist is a stretch. The only drawback is having to plug it in. I've never had any issues flashing anything so from a USER standpoint it is fine. Your post also fails to address the original post which should probably just be answered with a 'dont use cwm unless it is the one for your phone.'

I said IF we get one. From a dev standpoint, it's a little difficult to work with. We can't use all the update script commands we want, for example. Also, ADB is broke from the recovery side, so if we did want to do something manually before/after flashing, we can't.
Sent from my DROID X2 using XDA App
The current recovery for X2 is flawed. If I want to install a new ROM and a wipe is required, once that wipe is complete entering CWM is NOT an option. The recovery apk must be reinstalled to enter CWM. This is a problem if the ROM doesn't properly install, leaving the user high and dry. Only option is to enter stock recovery which is limited.

I have done this quite a few times and it's not that hard, nor will it brick your phone. If you mess up the worse that will happen is that you'll have a black screen instead of the actual logo.

So the atrix method works on X2, have you done it recently?
Hey it worked...right on but one thing was it says to delete the last two bits in file but when i do that it throws the size off instead of being 1036820 it becomes 1036818 so i left the two bits in and it stayed at the proper size, fastboot flashed and it worked. Whats the deal with deleting the last two bits?
So it worked great thanks dragonzkiller, im going to attach the file i made in-case anyone wants to change it using the directions from the link below.
The attached image is just to show you what it looks like you need the bin file to flash it which is located in logo.zip below, also i found the fastboot method provided in directions was super easy and worked no problem where the CWR zip method did not work i think because the zip template they give you is corrupt or something it acts weird if you try to edit or unzip it. Just use fastboot method super easy.

I fixed the link...you have to download the fastboot.zip from link and unzip it like in c:/fastboot then go to command prompt go to that directoy and run the commands. You also have to copy the logo.bin into the fastboot directory.
In the link posted over at the atrix page there are a bunch of other ones people made that you can download and install.
Its easy to make your own you just have to use a hex editor to tweak the finished image which seems very scary at first but its really easy you just have to be very carefull.
I use Hxd Hex Editor... http://mh-nexus.de/en/hxd/
I will also say that in the directions it says once your done editing hex the size will be 1036820 bits it says to remove 2 bits from end of image but when i did that the size changed to 1036818 bits, 2 bits lower then what it says so i did not remove the last 2 like it says and it came to the correct size of 1036820 bits so im just saying it says to take delete 70 bits from beginning then 2 from end and i did not remove the 2 from the end because it threw off the size, do whatever you want but that's what i did if it helps.

Recovery reboot option(Request)

I've always appreciated having the option of rebooting into recovery on the "phone options" when powering off. Typically if I have already used the dx2 bootstrap into recovery previously I can just power down when im plugged in and ill reboot into cwm...and my old dx and other phones I've seen have it typically. Pretty sure its doable.
So if anyones up for adding it to your list of things to do id be extatic.
Thx in advance.
Sent from my DROID X2 using XDA App
We don't have an official bsr. In order for the reboot recovery to work, i think the script calls for Koush's signature, or something like that, and our recovery doesn't have the proper sig. Not only is it a hacked up recovery, it's an ancient one. I don't see recovery ever being added, unfortunately.
Oh, btw, wrong forum.
Sent from my DROID X2 using xda premium
Xodus is correct.
We were all excited for a while when koush got an x2 bout a month or two ago thinking we would finally get a "real" x2 recovery option. Its a little frustrating to see almost EVERY moto phone except for us have that option. And the only "real"x2 difference between our phone and others is our tegra2. I can't see that being the reason we can't get this option. It Has GOT to be doable if someone would just put the work/time into creating it.
Well, don't they have one for the Xoom? We need to see if we can port some of the Xoom hacks. The only difference REALLY are honeycomb and the screen size(right?).

Logic seems airtight. I mean, if you can push the button in System Recovery and it'll boot to charge mode or recovery mode then why can't the same commands used to perform that action be used as a reboot recovery option. I'm no dev. I would imagine if it was that easy, it would've been done by now.
"Reboot widget" from the market is a good alternative for now....

Seems to me the charge mode is the weakest link in the chain. The normal boot sequence is dependent on encryption and system checks, the battery animation doesn't require so much security. It would make sense to me, after reading the cvpcs blog about 2nd init, they could use 2nd init to hijack normal boot, but that sounds like a total pain in the ass.

It may be a permanent fix, but it is technically just masking things *IF* it is a hardware issue.
Example: your phone's physical keys *MAY* be switched around on the main board of the phone, and the fix just switched the keys back around.
What I'm saying is that there shouldn't have needed to be a fix in the first place *IF* it was a hardware issue and somehow that file didn't get changed before.
Donlad thank you for elaborating on that, I understand your point. I've had this issue for a good couple of weeks and just now addressed it. Im hoping that I can remember what I was doing prior to having this issue so that I can actually pinpoint the reason this happened in the first place. Right now off the top of my head I can't remember. It may have been an app that I installed(?) And that's a big MAYBE. Anyway thanks for your help. I'll do my best to address issues I need help with sooner next time so that I wont have a hard time remembering changes I've done with my phone.
On a different note I'd like to say kudos and big ups to all the devs working hard and supporting the DROID X2. Please let me know if there's anything I can do to help

I had the same issue while sbf'ing. It is definitely a hardware issue with no fix. I think believe it happened during multiple boot loops before I got into the stock android recovery and wiped everything. Would be nice if you could confirm this but its not a big deal.
Download root explorer or rom toolbox and go into your system/usr/keylayout folder. Edit any files with keys 102 and 158. For instance on normal working phones 158 would b home and 102 would be back or vice versa... I dont remember the exact order. Because your phone is messed up you have to switch the settings so that 102 would be home and 158 now means back or, again, vice versa. Also remember to set "WAKE_DROPPED" for whatever you set the back button to and "WAKE" for the home button.
You should do this with all the files that contain those 2 button numbers so check all the files in that folder. If my memory serves me correct it requires editing of all except the first 2 files. Remember to save them first and they should be in working order after reboot until the next time you wipe your phone, install a new rom or sbf. If you do, you have to edit them again.

I am not responsible for the things you do to your phone.
I no longer have this phone. With that being said, I will still keep these links up. If for some reason they don't work, I WILL NOT be updating them. If you need them or wish to redistribute them, go for it and grab them while they are still here.
It was a nice phone while it lasted, but after 6 replacements I moved on to something better.
This DOES NOT unlock your bootloader, but will update to 2.3.5 on the already unlocked phones. Sorry to the folks that are locked with the 2.3.5 update. Hopefully something soon happens for you.

You could use my modified install-recovery.sh it enables init.d on stock roms. Btw great job

I am not responsible for the things you do to your phone.
This DOES NOT unlock your bootloader, but will update to 2.3.5 on the already unlocked phones. Sorry to the folks that are locked with the 2.3.5 update. Hopefully something soon happens for you.
Thanks to samcripp here at XDA and his Fruit Cake Maker, I have a CWM flashable .zip for you. This is stock 2.3.5 WITH the updated kernel. I still haven't figured out how to update the baseband though

Flashing this will revert your recovery to the stock recovery BUT will keep you unlocked
Re-install your custom recovery according to this guide-http://www.teamuscellular.com/Forum/viewtopic.php?f=105&t=1221
Also, I have noticed that after every boot it re-installs the stock recovery. To fix this, use a root file explorer(I use Root Explorer) and go into /system/etc and delete the file "install-recovery.sh"

Everything except mms works fresh flash.....even 1080p video. The mms should be easily fixable.
If your real picky the us cellular on the notification and such but thats easily fixeable as well.
Needs to be deodexed
Programming menu is #073887* then hit dial enter msl

Is this safe to flash on a photon?

I believe that is what cryptix is getting at... But don't take my word for it as I don't have a Photon.

I have been using this since you posted it on TUSCC forums and I prefer it over my fudged method, However I have not had this issue with it at all..
My Recovery stays the same after I have re-flashed it, after flashing this ROM.. Weird..
Yeah you could change the topic to electrify/photon.

Does this fix the screen becoming unresponsive after touching a specific area for more than 30 seconds?

No clue. I haven't had any problems with it but I'm on an Electrify not a Photon. Flash and find out

Thats actually a feature more or less so if water gets on the screen it doesnt bug out, can be annoying on games tho

I'm not saying this to troll, but this is a deal breaker for me, and I never thought for a minute that Sprint's only Tegra powered phone would be crippled over a trivial limitation.
Here is to hopes for motorola to make this feature optional in a future update.

Our screen is way too sensitive without that feature. I disabled it once. That was a dark day

I think if motorola would make it optional as well as add at least more than 2 points of multitouch this would help gaming. There are several games that can use more than 2 touch points.
Joker, with it disabled is there no way to adjust it?
Probably, but youre screen has to be perfectly clean all the time.
