Then you are with luch, because you want need to cross compile a thing , you will be working with java, not c (: ..

It seems to me it will both be java and c. It's using java for the gui and stuff for android but are using (ndk?) som c-libaries to hook into kernel.

Oah, ok.. I download the source but I'm having a hard time to debug the f**king app !

I have the ndk on my system, and eclipse does all the job!..

EDIT:

I think that ndk (jni) want compile in windows without cygwin, do you have it installed??

Havn't installed cygwin yet. New computer last week, (my old one gave up) so I need to install most things again...

I realized that it's also hard to know which branch of the code to use...

Well I download from svn normally.

I get this error on logcat

I/TETHER -> NativeTask( 2874): Trying to load libnativetask.so

E/TETHER -> NativeTask( 2874): Could not load libnativetask.so

Hum..

Have you built your own libnativetask.so or are you using the prebuilt one that comes with the source? (I think the source for the lib is also included)

Native, I'll try to build from the source.. Whats bugging me is that the app does not request root access, so, the problem might be there !!

Yes I did test it (the tun.ko you are referring to), it made my Liquid hang on the android boot logo. Had to flash a nandroid backup to get it working again.

EDIT: Sorry, I misread your post... I need to sleep... I only tested the tun.ko module from issue 48, not the patched VPN client GUI (posted under issue 38). That GUI is for cisco VPNs, not openvpn, but even so, I couldn't even get the kernel module working in the first place.

Maybe, it's should need root access according to all intructions. Installing cygwin now, but I have problem finding gnu make for it. (Need to find a repo that is including it)

You should probably put a notice in http://code.google.com/p/android-wifi-teth...etail?id=250#c1. Harald seems very active and could maybe help.

(I dont want to post anything before I have a kernal and a build environment that works)

Thanks, I left a comment there (: ..

EDIT:

Well, the problem resides right there, the lib is there and the android system does not loads it :s ..

EDIT2:

Finnaly managed to compile the bloody lib! And app finnaly started (didn't tested yet) but got erros on log..

EDIT3:

This is getting me crazy :s .. stupid wifi interface !

EDIT4:

We are f**ked up, spent all night on this almost for nothing. Same comment I left on the issue tracker:

Ok, here comes the problems.. It seems that liquid as the same problem as cliq (uses

same module [dhd.ko] and as same chip), no one knows how to bring up the eth0

interface, and if it wasn't enough, there are two firmware images in the wifi folder

BCM4325.bin and BCM4325Fac.bin and two configuration files wifi.conf and wifiFac.conf..

I spotted something curious, in either conf files,

FIRMWARE_LOADER=wlan_loader

but there is no wlan_loader anywhere in the system, on any folder!

What can be done for us, liquid owners to run wifi tether ? :\

F**k, now I'm going to sleep completely pissed off!

disc0,

Is it possible to trade multi touch for single touch, but when two fingers are pressed, it wont take the mid point, but the first/one finger pressed point?

I had my fun with pinch zooming... problem is I touch the menu button when I do the one handed pinch zoom... kinda annoying

so, returning one finger's point instead of the mid point would be good... only if it affects the keyboard

Thanks for your effort! So we need to find a way to bring eth0 up. Hm, how is android doing it?

I need you to describe better the problem please.

You facing that problem in dolphin [ witch version ] ??

You prefer to remove the MT ability and discard completly the second touch, is it that?

yes, and like in motorola cliq, I don't find any reference of any succeeding it.. Thats the point, I don't find nothing that can give a clue hoe android is doing it :\ ..

Yes, remove MT ability and replace with just one touch

so, if I put one finger down, it returns a point, then I put a second finger down, it doesnt take the mid point, but takes the first finger's point

Its not so much a problem with dolphin, its more a problem with doing a one hand pinch zoom. My palm touches the menu button by accident

Menu button is NOT the touchscreen!

Menu button IS capacitive!

Of course. But touchscreen & the soft keys are two different things and your problem won't be solved if MT get's deactivated.

There would have to be some sort of

"if Touchscreen is press ignore touchpanel presses"

But I have no idea where to integrate this, mabýbe disc0 knows it.. But it would be bad for apps like Gameboid.

OK...

The stock keyboard does not support multi touch

What I want is to have the system not to return the mid point when two fingers are pressed

it seems that this can be done in the kernel

Might not need to remove MT

from an old post reffering to drivers/input/touchscreen/auo_ts.c

http://android.modaco.com/content/acer-liq...rce-here-it-is/

we see

	if (!finger2_pressed) {

		/* No multitouch -- force width to zero */;

		width = 0;

		x = coord[0][0];

		y = coord[0][1];

	} else {

		/* (x,y) coords for multitouch are at midpt between fingers */

		x = (coord[0][0] + coord[1][0]) / 2;

		y = (coord[0][1] + coord[1][1]) / 2;


		/* Report the width according to the abs distance of x-axis */

		width = abs((coord[0][0] - coord[1][0]));

	}
instead of having the mid point being the x, y coords 
		x = (coord[0][0] + coord[1][0]) / 2;

		y = (coord[0][1] + coord[1][1]) / 2;
can we put the first point i.e. 
		x = coord[0][0];

		y = coord[0][1];

from what it looks like it might affect the multi touch someway

doing this might make the keyboard easier to use or more accurate when speed typing with two thumbs, since there will not be a case where the character at the mid point is typed in

JIT....JIT....JIT lol lets get JIT working on Donut Liquid, :lol: from what I am reading it will increase x1.74 in speed and more battery also.... ill try to backport it :D

Edit:

here is the backport:

His repo is synced to the current kernel release, so its a matter of syncing and start working on implementing JIT.

Im a bit interested to see what BFS patching will for more speed increase :D
