Multitouch possible in theory?

I know its much to read, but if you read the whole thread you would already have noticed that I even contacted Luke Hutchinson directly (the guy that ported MT to the G1). That was the first thing I tried. I didn't work, obviously :)

Thanks for the hint though :D

To the rest of you: I'm really sorry, I haven't got any time recently to look further into MT :) But really big thanks to all of you that are supporting me :D Believe me, without you guys encouraging me I would already have given up a while ago.

Best regards,

BB

Huawei C8600 seems to be very similar to U8230, maybe the C8600 touch firmrware would be the solution for our problems

Everybody, stop bumping this thread...

The people that are trying to make multitouch work will let us know if they succeed. I'm sure they're trying every thing imaginable.

Nope, no MT what so ever.

And it's pretty much a dead project.

sorry for bumping this thread..

i just want to know how to flash the touchscreen hardware firmware?

I use the huawei C8150 that using synaptic_i2c_rmi_tm.c as driver.

i don't know how to flash the touchscreen hardware firmware, or how to including on kernel source.

it seems huawei is starting to developing the u8500 with dualtouch capability, i read from here:

http://developer.huaweidevice.com/bbs/view...;extra=page%3D1

i hope huawei u8500 is still using synaptic. because for u8800 that have multitouch capability is using atmel.

in other think, i see samsung s5570 is using synaptic rmi4.

and on kernel source, i see lot off firmware version (hex format).

There's a weird thing I've noticed..

Android Features/Capabilities in the ASI (Android System Info) App shows the following as the features:

(omitted)

android.hardware.touchscreen

android.hardware.touchscreen.multitouch

Though multitouch doesn't work. Weird that android flags the screen as a multitouch touchscreen. :D

Whatever. Just saying.

Finally I can get Multitouch / Dualtouch Working on Huawei Ideos C8150..

This is some Preview:

Cooool!!!But how can we get it on Pulse?

It would be very nice if you could do that, here's the kernel for U8220/U8230:

https://github.com/pulse-android-dev/kernel_pulse

If you could compile the kernel with your edited files it might work, since the files look very similair.

Sh4d0w940

I will take a look to the kernel source of pulse.

I hope I can, port the tm driver to tm1319 source.

or maybe BBM & totiadrenalin can port the driver?

I will also take a look at it when I have some time.

TJ Style, congratulations on your XDA headliner !!!

Looking forward for you to get the multitouch working on our pulses, if it's possible in any way...

Thx for the effort

Take a look at this [CONFIG_TOUCHSCREEN_SYNAPTICS_I2C_RMI_TM1319=y] line in gonfig.gz in pulse

And in Huawei ideos c8150 is using synaptics_i2c_rmi_tm.c touchscreen drivers.

So be careful to do not mess the drivers and patch wrong touchscreen driver.

Wish luck to any who will try to patch the drivers and enable DT in Pulse!

the safety way is to disable the firmware upgrade function of synaptic.

Didn't BigBearMDC say he got a dualtouch touchscreen driver, but the problem was the touch controller firmware that was not reporting the second point?

I gues that the problem was with board-msm7x25.c

TJ Style what did you exactly patch in board-msm7x25.c?

Because compared with the board-msm7x25.c file from pulse's source it is totally different.
