May 18th. I'm not in a good mood today.
I'm tired of repeating the same thing every time. Many people pretend that they know lots of things while knowing nothing about it. I'm really tired and bored.
To me, pinch zoom is enough. That's my initial goal of this project. I don't care about such Game Mode. I made that for those noisy kids, and you can see what I got in return.
As I said, this project will be discontinued. I pushed everything on github, anybody can improve it.
Good luck to you guys. Anyone who continues to improve this can send me a PM for editing this thread content.

Intro
I'm working with a kernel module to replace SE touchscreen driver to support dualtouch. However, as I found out, it will mostly not be supported by our hardware, because X8 has only 1 sensor and that sensor supports only 1 finger. I don't know whether we can have dual touch if we flash the screen firmware. I will have a look on that.
A temporary solution now is to make some gestures based on user fingers' relative position. The idea is that we make Android to think that the second finger is also pressed, by generating second finger events from the driver. Anybody who wants to get more details about the previous development, please have a look at this thread
Release history
May 11 v007. Game mode added. Look at HOWTO section for more details.
May 06 v006. No more pinch zoom after 1 finger is lifted. Less pinch zoom activation time. Fixed incorrect positions for generated events.
April 30 v005. Much better "native" pinch zoom now! More stable movements, less unpredictable positions. Zoom in position is specified by your two fingers, not at the screen center.
April 23 andrej456's x8gesture. Well this is not my work, it's andrej456's work, but it's better for all of you to find the module in the first post. You guys can grab it in his post. Thanks to andrej456!
April 13 v004. Rewrite from scratch. Pinch zoom with one or two fingers.
April 03. Source released.
March 26 v003. Specify zoom-in position.
March 25 v002. Zoom-out, rotate. Module size optimization.
March 24 v001. Better finger detection. Reduced zoom-in speed.
March 23 v000. 1 finger pinch zoom-in only
Source is provided at github : https://github.com/doixanh/X8Features
Very Important : HOWTO
Modes
Starting from v007, X8Gesture supports two gestures: Pinch Zoom and Game Mode. Default mode is Pinch Zoom initially after each reboot.
1. Game mode
To activate game mode, keep your phone at "vertical" state, keep one finger at the bottom right and then another at the top left of your screen, one-by-one (don't release first finger).
Generally you should have more pressure with your second finger so that the digitizer recognizes it as the moving finger.
I tested with Tank Hero and it seems to work. This is not dual touch. It only makes you feel more comfortable with MT games. Sometimes it's incorrect though. That's the limitation of our hardware.
Thanks firdausmbois for the idea and your very well designed illusion!
2. Pinch Zoom
To activate Pinch Zoom mode, keep your phone at "vertical" state, keep one finger at the bottom left and then another at the top right of your screen, one-by-one (don't release first finger).
For v005 and above
It's much like natural pinch zoom now. There is no need to "activate gesture" like v004 or below anymore. However you will probably need some practice with Multitouch Visualizer 2.
For v004
To activate gesture, put your two fingers one-by-one (one finger first, then another after - don't put both at the same time) on the screen, away from each other for at least 1cm. The 2nd finger should have more pressure onto the screen. After putting your 2nd finger on the screen, wait for 0.5s, the gesture will be activated.
After the gesture is activated, you can
- Use your two pressed fingers, or
- Lift up one finger and use the remaining finger
to zoom-in/out/rotate.
I prefer keeping two fingers on the screen, because it's natural for pinch zoom. You can look at the tutorial for v004 here, and practice with MultiTouch Visualizer 2.
For v003 and below
Right now it supports only zoom-in, zoom-out, and rotate. I will improve it over time. For who says it's not working, please read this how-to very carefully:
- To activate gesture : Put two fingers near each other, lift one finger up.
- To zoom-in (make things bigger): Activate gesture near the center of the screen. Move your remaining finger away from the gesture position to zoom-in.
- [new in v003] To zoom-in with specified zoom-in position: Do a normal touch to the zoom-in position (your face in an image, for example), then activate the gesture a little bit away from the zoom-in position shortly after the previous normal touch, then drag to zoom. I know, it's a little bit hard to understand ~.~ I will make a short clip for the tutorial
- To zoom-out (make things smaller): Activate gesture at the corner or the side of the screen. Move your remaining finger toward the screen center to zoom-out.
- To rotate : Activate gesture at the corner or the side of the screen. Move your remaining finger around the screen center to rotate.
Practice your 1 finger pinch zoom with MultiTouch Visualizer 2. Tutorial for zoom in, zoom out, and rotate can be watched here

For other ROMs, please upload your /system/etc/hw_config.sh so I can customize your ROM's hw_config to load the kernel module
Troubleshoot
Q. Help! It doesn't work!
A. Try this command from your PC shell
Code:
adb shell
dmesg | grep X8Gesture
If there is some output, that means the module is loaded. You need to practice first.
Q. Help! I did as above, but nothing was output
A. Check your hw_config.sh or your ramdisk to be sure that it's loaded during boot
Q. Help! dmesg above output something, but it doesn't work!
A. Maybe you're trying to load it in X10 Mini Pro or other devices? It supports only X8 and X10 mini. Also, perhaps your digitizer is not Synaptics, it may be a Cypress. Look at the Attention section.
Notice:
1. This is NOT Dual Touch, as big X10 or X10 Mini Pro.
2. This is a Work In Progress. It may not behavior correctly.
3. Read the above "How to zoom" carefully before reporting that it is not working!
4. Who installed gesture module on 23-03-2011 manually : please remove the old synaptics_i2c_rmi4_dx.ko and replace with x8gesture.ko below. Update your hw_config.sh also. Sorry for the inconvenience.
ATTENTION
I've just received a full dmesg from kueh9. I see that in his X8 there is a Cypress digitizer while most of us (including me) are using Synaptics digitizer! That's why x8gesture is not working in some devices.
Thank you kueh9 for your dmesg!
For devices that are unable to use x8gesture, try this command in your phone (either with terminal or with adb shell):
Code:
dmesg | grep "cyttsp-i2c"
If you have something like this, that means your X8/X10mini is using Cypress and therefore it will not be supported by x8gesture:
Code:
<6>[ 4.185259] cyttsp_i2c_probe: Successful registration cyttsp-i2c
In this case, because I don't have X8 with Cypress digitizer, I cannot do anything for you guys. I'm sorry.
ATTENTION #2 : About multi/dual touch capabilities
For X10Mini:
Nobody sees this, at step 14? It's Synaptics T1021A !
And nobody sees this? T1021A is ClearPad 1000 !
And nobody also sees this? ClearPad 1000 is Single-Touch !
I highly believe X8 also this digitizer (Synaptics T1021A).
And guys, stop dreaming about DT/MT with custom kernels! You are the one who develops kernel modules? Or me? You think that Synaptic kernel driver can do what my kernel module cannot??
Big thanks to andrej456 for the idea and code to remove SE touchscreen driver.
Disclaimer
I'm not responsible if this module bricks your lovely phone. Use it at your own risk!
This is awesome!! Thank a lot!
This mod works on all X8 ROMs?
Wow! Thanks. Finally somebody who cares about X8.
How does it work?

[size=+2][APP][Update 2009/04/08] SSMaHo 0.0.4.0 [/size]
Guys
I reimplemented the old SSMaPa. completly new technology.
There aren't many new features till now, but the new architecture allows further changes..
some new features
- differing between mail and sms now possible
- added some new replacements
- landscape mode fully supported
- should be working generic on all manila versions
I also added gsgetfile.dll as default file chooser for ssmaho
How to use:
- if you was using old ssmapa, do first a 'full restore' in ssmapa!
- Extract all 4 files and copy them to a folder on your phone (the folder has to stay on the phone.. I recommand /programs/ssmaho)
- run ssmahogui.exe
- click on the first button
- click on load configuration
- click on "Start INIT-Assistant"
- There are two modes, prefer the fast init, only if this is not working, choose the manila file from the slowinit box. Click on Fast Init (or maybe slow init)
- There should appear something like: "CreateProcessW offset found: 0x002d4240, ..." If that's not the case and "unknown exetype" appears, then use slow init.. In some cases you have to click 2 times... If this isn't working too, then sorry, ssmaho will not work on your device.
- click close
- click on "start assigner mode"
- minimize ssmaho (click right top corner, fast, or start -> today)
- Go back to manila
- click on every element you want to replace in manila
- there should pop up a window 'Assigner'. enable in minimum following checkboxes: Active, EXE Name, all News
---- Match condition commandline is useful for hooking sms inbox and mail inbox
- with the button "..." choose the new file
- click ok
- assign as many as you want.. windows are not working, but there are more than in ssmapa.. also landscape alignment should be working
- when you're done go back to ssmahoGUI and click on "Stop all".
- go to shortcuts, I recommand enabling all...
- click on "Save Configuration"
- click on About (or don't do it )
- close the program
- You have under programs new shortcuts: SSMaHo Attach / SSMaHo Detach. click on "ssmaho attach" and the new programs get called when working with manila.
--> You have to execute the attacher everytime manila crashes. If you use autostart it should automatically attaching after softreset, but not after a crash.
I don't think that this tool is able to destroy something on the phone. Never mind, I'm not responsible for any damages.
[size=+1]Upgrade instructions[/size]
1. copy all the new files to the same directory
2. Click on "Install new HookerDll"
2.1. If this fails, click on "Load Configuration" -> "Stop All"
2.2 Reclick on "Install new HookerDll"
3. ReDo the initialisation. You should use FastInit. There should appear 6 offsets
4. Ready.. You can now use ssmaho...
With version 0.0.3.0 I implemented a real inline patch (hooking a function of manila). a generic solution for smt. like this is heavy... theoretically it should work (tested on a rhodium and old manila)... but as soon as htc changes smt deep, it won't be working anymore..
[size=+1]Tricks[/size]
- Everytime the first button is available, click it... you'll then have lesser "where the hell"-messages
- if you have problems with one function / one hook, deactivate it with "manual configuration"
[size=+1]Important[/size]
- The new inlinefunction-hooking of manila can only be searched with fast init. Also, fast Init isn't as fast as before, because it has to search more data... be patient after clicking on it..
Please donate for me! I'm a apprentice and use a lot of my free time for working on the computer, to be able to create such tools.
[size=+2]Thank you [/size]

--> on new phones, evertime manila crashes (not restart, crash) ssmaho gets reattached automatically. This feature is like all other event-based and not polling anything..
- fixed some bugs
Version 0.0.3.2 (2009/04/06)
- Removed exe limitation.. all filetypes are now supported
Version 0.0.3.1 (2009/04/05)

Thanks a bunch, Svenso... I am a long time SSMAPA user, and I am very happy to see this new app.
So will this prog allow me to have wmp open instead of tf3d music player when i touch the music tab in touchflo? also will this software work on the new manila?
cheers
That´s indeed nice improvments. The question is if this app supports the upcoming "XBmod Manila Rhodium port". If it is you´re my hero!!
Really cool tool. I hope that no bugs will be found.
Hmm, previous version of this tool used manila's files patches, I suppose, but now we have to check an autostart option... that means that you patch manila in the RAM, but not the file. Does your app hang in memory or it starts after a soft reset, patches and unloads?
Testing now... not sure if I am clear on what everything on the pop-up assignment screen does.
*edit* Ok, I think I've got it. I have successfully mapped the "time click" on XBMod's HD manila.
If I click on the call history button it brings up the call history instead of bringing up the assignment screen. I'm assuming this element cannot be mapped?
Yes unfortunately you assume correctly.
But SSMaHo is a better base to develop on, anyway.

I'm already loving it. The fact that it works on the HD manila is wonderful.
*edit* How does the "differing between mail and sms" work? If I click on the "all messages" button on the sms tab will it just remap this button?
Hi,
Thanks a lot for all your effort with this tool. It's a great idea and hopefully it'll work on my device in one of the next versions. Stumbled upon your tool yesterday and read the whole thread of the previous tool, and now tried this one. But it seems there's still something going on with this manila version, your tool doesn't like.
When I press "Start Assigner Mode" I get a popup saying "thats bad. Proc not found -.-"
I'm using a new HTC Touch Cruise (09). It already features the new "Footprint Tab". In case I can send any file to you to help, please don't hesitate to ask.
Until then: good luck with your exams!
What you mean a new "HTC Touch Cruise"?
Unless I miss something Touch Cruise is an old (obsolete) model...
change music player?
Ok i searched the old thread (alpha version) as well and found no answers as to whether this software could replace the manila music player in touchflo.
Could someone please confirm or deny whether its possible to change it to say windows media player?
thanks in advance
Why don't you just try?
i tried using it on the rhodium port but it doesnt seem to work :-\
im just following the instructions and it cant initiate the manilla.exe properly
great work none the less for the HD manilla! =D

The Rhodium port is probably manila2.exe. Haven't tried it yet, I'm just guessing.

Because I'd like to hear from others who have tried it first and hear about their experiences in case theres a major problem or other.
And now with the above posts i now know that it doesnt work with the new manila and therefore i dont have to risk messing up anything on my phone.
Hoping in the future that Rhodium/Manila2 is supported as it looks like a great app!
Cheers
This application cannot mess anything with your device.
Try to manually attach first, see if it works, then choose to autostart.
I've try it in my jade ( aka touch 3g ) and works perfectly !!!
i replace time link with better g-alarm !!!!
tnku very much.
Many thanks.
I've tried in my HD with Manila-Rhodium (Dutty exreme 2.2 ROM). After Start Assigner-Mode there isn't any pop up window
Any help.
Thanks
Not working at my Touch HD... My current ROM is Touch of HD v3.4.1 and when I click at Start Assigner-Mode it gives back the error: Master failure. where the hell you put my dll in?!
I placed all the four files in a folder (named it SSMaHo) at the root of the phone!

Q. Help! It doesn't work!
A. Try this command from your PC shell
[CODE]
adb shell
dmesg | grep X8Gesture
If there is some output, that means the module is loaded. You need to practice first.
Q. Help! I did as above, but nothing was output
A. Check your hw_config.sh or your ramdisk to be sure that it's loaded during boot
Q. Help! dmesg above output something, but it doesn't work!
A. Maybe you're trying to load it in X10 Mini Pro or other devices? It supports only X8 and X10 mini.
Give it a try.
If u like my post, thank me!!
Yep works on MiniCM, althrough..I think most of the packages won't suit to our x10mini(I mean official firmware ones)
omg is working!!!!!! But it wants callibration. I downloaded a multitouch tester from the market and it found 2 touch points.
sorry for my bad english!!
Works well on MiniCM-Beta2 !
Tested in Google Maps, Web Browser, and checked with Multitouch Tester.
thank you so much. Works perfect in my x10 mini SE 2.1.1.A.0.6.
Works Great ! on E10i 2.1.1.A.0.6
it can be zoom in Angrybird?
make one for cyanogen6 v3.4?

Works on cm7!
congratulation!
great job,will try this out later on this evening!
Keep it up.
Best wishes.
Its really awesome aint it guys! Yup it requires calibration though.....but otherwise, its the next best alternative to the pinch-zoom for X10!!
guys because i don't have the x10 mini yet (in 2 days i will buy it)i cant test this one question:it makes the x10 mini recognise 2 fingers? or something like emulate the second finger?
I need a help from you X10mini guys: can somebody do a fresh restart and paste the content of dmesg on your X10mini? I don't have an X10mini but I want to see your dmesg info.
Thanks.

Here is the dmesg info from my mini.
nice work dude
Thanks for uploading the dmesg @nishan.
It finally happened. A persistent and good dev "AnDyX" managed to get the digitizer working with multitouch
His thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1135965
I think I can say on behalf of the X8/cypress community THANK YOU.
This thread is now obsolute, and is kept only as a info thread!
-------------------------------------------------------------------
The digitizer in the X8 is:
CY8CTMA340
These are some officiel links for the chipsets
Product Sheet:
http://www.cypress.com/?docID=29019
Product info on the homepage:
http://www.cypress.com/?id=1938&rID=51366
Android beta drivers from cypress homepage
http://www.cypress.com/?rID=44238
I have created an account and downloadet these drivers and attached them to this post. It is an i2c driver for the module View attachment Cypress_TTSP_Android_Driver_Test.zip
However the driver included in the driver release by sonyericsson looks much simpler, and thats maybe why it does not support multitouch: View attachment cyttsp.zip
The "cyttsp_i2c.c" file included in the sonyerricson release contains 160 lines of code, and the one from cypress homepage contains 2009 lines of code !
But that one also works for multiple devices.
Detection of which chipset the phone has!
Please there is no secure way to determine what digitizer the phone has from the package, as I initially thought. I maybe thought the SI number had anything to do with it but i was WRONG.
Please stop posting SI numbers in the thread. They cannot be used
You MUST root your phone and have a terminal installed in order to see the chipset version, sorry but that's the only current way:
Taken from doixanh synaptic thread:
Try this command in your phone (either with terminal or with adb shell):
Code:
dmesg | grep cyttsp-i2c
If you have something like this, that means your X8/X10mini is using Cypress and therefore it will not be supported by x8gesture:
Code:
<6>[ 4.185259] cyttsp_i2c_probe: Successful registration cyttsp-i2c
Also in my experience if you have "permission denied" you must first enter this in the terminal
Code:
su
and then you can enter the above commands!
Progress from here on
See the beginning of the thread!
Please write in this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1135965 if you have anything usefull regarding development of the driver and try to keep it clean.

Hello all you genius devs.
It could be really cool if you could possibly be looking into the cypress digitizer for X8.
I know many of you don't have the X8 with the cypress digitizer, but the synaptic as also stated in this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1064576
Also some digitizer which looks alot the same as the cypress in the X8 is in the x10 mini pro thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1064558
Would a dev be looking into it if someone could borrow the DEV a X8 with a cypress digitizer? That would be awesome.
I don't own a X8 myself otherwise I would gladly send it over to a dev.
But my brother owns a white X8 and it has a cypress digitzer. My father has a black X8 and that one has a synaptic.
On the White X8 box it says:
E15i
SI 1242-3079.4 DA
Maybe this string contains some identification to the fact it is a X8 with cypress.

yeah..it would be cool if some dev can unleash the multitouch potential of the cypress..i own an x8 with cypress myself and i really want it..i dont really care about gaming,i only want the pinch zooming ability because i surf the net a lot with my phone..
Which color X8 do you have?
And can you list what it says on the package if you still have it?
E15i (white, dark blue)
SI 1241-9136.2 EN,IN from Indonesia
hope this can help
go dualtouch!!!
My X8 has cypress digitizer too..
E15i White
SI 1242-4842.2 EL, EN Greece
On my box is
E15i. White/silver
SI 1243 - 5606. 3. EN
So i have synaptics or cypress digitizer ??

I am not sure..
I would probably say cypress because of the "SI-124" but there is a better way to check it you have terminal on the phone..
I will be sure whenever i can confirm that the synaptic have something different other than "si-124" on the package--
My Synaptics X8 also has got 124x-xxxx SI code. SI code doesn't tell the HW revision. SI code represents region.
Thanks for that info.. So now at least i know that is useless info indeed..
The problem is the box does not state the manufactoring date :-(
Anyway this was just trying to identify the digitizer type without rooting the phone..
I will update the first post to reflect this..
Mine says SI 1242-4363 White X8.
Does that mean I've got a Cypress digitizer?
I'm not a Dev but would love to help any Dev with testing?
Roland
we can't look at si, i change my si to get update and si is only region
more(or maybe all) members xda have coustoms roms si is changed
but any works at mt(or dualtouch) is good idea
if u do something , i test it with pleasure
My xperia x8 that i buy from amazon, is 1241-9136.2 and fake dual touch doesnt work for me
SI is not needed for that
i put code from frist post and nothing happen
Please read the first post again. This is a developer thread. The module/driver HAS NOT been developed yet..
Hello from me too I have a cypress digitizer phone but i have found a strange thing today (while i was reading about linux kernel modules as general) - no kernel module is loaded for it but one for synaptics is

... So can anyone point me to the source code for 2.1 on our devices because i can't find it on SE development page. I'll continue to investigate ... thanks in advance
Cypress chip that the newer x8 uses is 4 touch supportive.
So change the topic name from DualTouch to Multitouch!

what do you mean by there is no kernel module loaded? from what i see, the phone loads many modules there. and also yes, the synaptic module is also loaded but useless in cypress phones.
source code is in android's github.

What i mean is that driver for cypress is not loaded as module but compiled with the kernel ... and i can't find source for our x8 (e15i) here http://developer.sonyericsson.com/cws/devworld/search-downloads/opensource?cc=gb&lc=en there is only one for e16i(w8) ... and x8 on android 1.6 .... but as i remember we have e15i from December 2010 when people found that sony-ericsson didn't give their last source
edit: sorry my bad .... found them ^_^
When I type
Code:
dmesg | grep "cyttsp-i2c"
into terminal I got
Code:
<6>[ 2.5DD486] cyttsp_i2c_probe: probe of 0-0D24 failed with error -12
as response.
Does it somehow help you.
I am using latest MiniCM6 Release
This is module that enables dual touch in Cypress touchpad.
Currently there is nothing new to implement unless there will be some breakthrough e.g: datasheet for Cypress chip. I know that FroyoBread people have problems I couldn't solve it without help.
Prerequisites:
- cypress based touchpad,
- X8,
- Baseband x15
Known issues:
- on FroyoBread - you can't accept or reject the incoming call - works if added in hw_config.sh - thanks der_mart
- cypress chip don't report second touch if distance between fingers is lower then about 110 pixels (by AnDyX)
- if you slide one finger to second - chip reports one finger and geometric center will be in the middle of two fingers (by AnDyX)
- sometimes doesn't report second touch if you quickly press both fingers alltogether (by AnDyX)
- on FroyoBread sliding position of touch from first finger to second if you release first and quicly press second finger in another position - could you check both v003 versions guys ?
How to check which chip our X8 has:
- if you already have X8Gesture module from doixanh and it works on your X8 - you have synaptic - so from now stop yelling, screaming and complaining - for me this is disrespect his work !
- run following command in shell (via adb or Terminal Emulator):
Code:
dmesg | grep cyttsp-i2c
If you have something like this, that means your X8 is using Cypress chip otherwise your X8 has Synaptic chip (so look at note above):
Code:
cyttsp_i2c_probe: Successful registration cyttsp-i2c
if you have "permission denied" you must first enter this in the terminal
Code:
su
and then you can enter the above commands.
Manual installation:
- push ax8mt.ko to /system/lib/modules
- run the following command
Code:
insmod /system/lib/modules/ax8mt.ko
- run dmesg in shell, must contains following lines:
Code:
ax8mt: module v005 loaded
input: cyttsp-spi as /devices/platform/i2c-adapter/i2c-0/0-0024/input/input3
cyttsp-i2c 0-0024: ax8mt_cyttsp_setup_input_dev: Registered input device cyttsp-spi
ax8mt: Enjoy dual touch now :)
ax8mt_init: Mode set to: andyx
Thats all - dual touch should works now.
If system reboot happens, get last kernel messages (get it using adb command:
Code:
adb pull /proc/last_kmsg
) and share
Check in Multitouch Visualiser - if it works correctly.
Until you're sure that it works with your hardware, don't install it to hw_config.sh.
Release history
v005:
- now there are four modes in driver (can be switched on the fly) each differently reports touches to OS:
* 'original' - uses code from driver - don't send tracking id that chip reports - so OS must do tracking fingers it by itself,
* original_tid' - uses code from driver - send tracking id from chip - in Multitouch Visualiser/Tester - there are additional id number,
* 'andyx' - default mode - send tracking id to OS - but only reports track id set to 1 or 2 - so there is no additional id number in Multitouch Visualiser,
* 'desire' - don't send tracking id that chip reports - so OS must do tracking fingers it by itself; reports touches similar to driver in HTC Desire.
In XGin - all version works - so by default 'andyx' mode is set, IMHO - don't forces OS to track touches by itself and up to 2 tracking id ( two fingers ), so should be fastest.
How to change mode:
In dmesg output there will be line:
Code:
ax8mt: module v005 loaded
input: cyttsp-spi as /devices/platform/i2c-adapter/i2c-0/0-0024/input/input3
Use device name from second line without two last slashes at the end and add '/sys/ at the beginning:
Code:
echo "andyx" > /sys/devices/platform/i2c-adapter/i2c-0/0-0024/mode
Dmesg command output should contain:
Code:
attr_driver_mode: Mode switched to: andyx
v004:
- driver reports smaller constant touch area,
- this is version that not send tracking id sent to OS,
- added sending the same information from driver to OS like in Synaptic driver - maybe it helps FroyoBread people.
v003:
- removed all hacks - module is initialised in init section,
- two versions with and without tracking id sent to OS.
v002:
- code cleaning,
- module is removable using rmmod command,
- driver send track id to OS - visible in Multitouch Visualiser.
v001:
- just initial version
I should mention that der_mart published his version at nearly the same time: DT
Cypress product info:
I found this on cypress page:
Availability
The CY8CTMA340-XXX-03 (two-finger support) and CY8CTMA340-XXX-11 (four-finger support) device families are both available today from Cypress. Qualified customers can contact Cypress for more information and to obtain samples.

So everything depends which version of chip is in our X8.
Note:
It uses code to hijacking methods from doixanh X8Overclock module.

I'm not responsible if this module damages your lovely phone. Use it at your own risk!
Nice work. At least there's someone with Cypress device

Nothing really happened, for synaptic you must use X8Gesture module from doixanh
it works for me thanks a lot
Tried it twice yet (I rebooted the phone after the first success), no kernel panic, it works. As I wrote in the generic MT topic: "When you make 2 touch simultaenously it's ok, but when you lift one of your finger it won't recognise the second touch until you move your finger that left off on your screen."
Don't be offended, it is just a bug report, and I know this is the first DT module for us, and yet, it is now far better than the Fake MT that synaptics can do. We are really lucky that you're here and do this. Thanks a lot!
Now I'll try to make a kernel panic reboot. I'll report back how many tries it needs to fail the loading.
(on ROM FroyoBread v12- from doixanh <-- great man too )

Don't be sad or disappointed. You've got pinch zoom and game mode, so if you're not a big mobile gamer, it is like the cypress module. BTW this developement is for showing SE that how rude are they with their customers, and to say SE that they must stop lie and get these REAL developers on XDA a good job for good money! Because as I see, the devs here on XDA are far more good at programming than SE's developers. Cheers.
BTW Tomorrow I'll make a video of it, but now it is too late here for this

If you wanna do it permanent, you need to edit hw_config, and add the insmod on it, you can check my signature, there's a HW_Config Editor

You can reactivate it only if you read AnDyX first post, even you'll get enlightened that this is not a permanent module, this is why it must not loaded at boot! It can cause kernel panic, so it is better for now if you load it manually after the OS loaded

I originally started porting ICS to my beloved nexus one the very same day google released the source back in November. I had very little knowledge and no experience porting android. It took 2 days to sort countless build errors and get it booting, only a few days later i was able to release my first alpha (where absolutely nothing worked) It has come a long way since then, with hundreds of hours invested on my part and undying support from this wonderful commutity, I am pleased to announce: as of 2.1.0p11 this rom is /almost/ stable. However it will remain in alpha/beta (whatever you want to call it) a while longer, but the majority of people will find this usable as a daily driver.
For those of you not following this thread. You may not know my nexus died. As in the NAND finally gave out ((bootloader) rbchk: Total 1191 bad blocks!!). And I was able to get a replacement on ebay for $142.50 USD. Paid for entirely with your donations! Thank you to everyone who donated (i can't appreciate it enough). I look forward to bringing you the latest and greatest Ice Cream Sandwich to your n1's.
I have spent many hours and sleepless nights on this. So if you like it please feel free to hit that donate button above that picture of me.

You must install blackrose hboot before flashing ICS. Instructions.
BlackRose
You must increase the size of the system partiton to fit ICS to at least 210MB
*4/14* I had previously recommended 210 system but am now changing that back to 220. The size of ICS and mainly Gapps is growing and with 210 system on the a2 release, after gapps there is only 6mb free space. That doesnt give me very much room to grow on and can cause problems with people who have bad blocks on the system partiton.
RECOMMENDED: System 220MB Cache 10MB Data 206MB Download
System 210 Cache 8 Userdata 218 Download
(or make your own with the Blackrose installer).
All past builds will work just fine on either layout 210 and 220
Future builds might not fit on 210 as of a2 it is pushing it.
If you are installing for the first time choose the 220mb system.
Flash:
Code:
fastboot flash hboot hboot_brcrust_220-10-206-ICS.nb0
fastboot reboot-bootloader
fastboot -w
If it flashed correctly: after the 'reboot-bootloader' command you will see TexasICS on the second line (under blackrose)

GAPPS:
(latest are posted to mongoosehelix twitter page) or dl here 5-20-release (thanks TuSKan for the mirror)
Gapps are NOT included in the rom. Reasons for this is 1) smaller upload for me 2) Gapps seem to be the source of most peoples problems. This way you can flash whatever version or package you want/works best (or even make your own custom gapps package)

Evervolv-Perdo-2.2.0a5-passion (6/23)
main thing here is camcorder, native omx encoding is working but decoding is still broke so you can record videos but cant play them back. Issues: video is capped at 15fps so it is a little choppy, recorded video is rotated 90 degrees
usb tether support: not native, using the motorola usb app not included (push to /system/app then the toggle in settings will work) i'll probably never include this app in the build since it runs as a service and that bothers me
be sure to check out new options in the evtoolbox (lockscreen and interface) and the new evtips widget

much better multitouch experience (theomy)
camera preview works (kushdeck) barcode scanning (tested w/ google goggles) (panorama, video have issues, also there is a memory leak, leaving the camera app open for 2+min will cause OOM to kill the system server possible causing a reboot)

Evervolv-Perdo-2.1.0p11-passion (2/27)
Phone should not lockup anymore when rotating display. Landscape mode is still strange, status bar is rendered halfway off screen...but only when rotating right...going left its fine.
Moved to cayniarbs stock(ish) kernel with my kgsl commits and ksm/zram backported from 3.0
EVtoolbox: new menu 'performance' control zram(aka compcache) and ksm, both disabled by default. ksm will reduce memory overhead by 10-15mb with minimal cpu usage (0-1%). ive read that ksm likes to have swap (10% zram should be enough) but youll have to experiment and see. also added 'processor' menu (also from cm) to view/control cpu stats.
Apps2sd: support moving /data/data, (run 'a2sd install' again and choose y when asked about appdata) im still wary of how to handle wipes when appdata2sd is active. so ive added two functions to a2sd: 'nodatasd' which removes appdata2sd flag and optionally removes the appdata from sdcard and 'nosysdata' which removes only the system appdata (ie anything starting with com.android) from the sdcard
Browser: i revised hwcomposer. redering is faster < 1 to 2 secs max under heavy scrolling
Camera preview is still broke.
Devhost was broke while i was uploading this so everything is just up on the mirror site.

Evervolv-Perdo-2.1.0p9 (2/16)
whats new:
kernel update: 32bit color (fixes gradient backgrounds)
hwcomposer: rewrote from scratch for qsd8k. (main fix is screen off animation)
statusbar: new toolbox, settings button back to opening settings (swipe to change screens). notifications back to stock behavior. toolbox can even be turned off in evtoolbox
browser: slowed rendering, (fuzzy text takes a few seconds to clear up) is much faster now. (1-2 sec instead of 4-5)
known issues:
reboots: check here for initial workaround
removed omx libs due to build error (just use the ones from p8 if you really want them)
rotation still broke, seems to lockup the most on the home screen.
Code:
kgsl kgsl-3d0: |kgsl_mh_intrcallback| axi write error interrupt
and everything else that was broke in p8

Evervolv-Perdo-2.1.0p8 (2/10)
Going forward with release. Nothing major changed since pre-p8. Still same major issues as outlined >here<. But its working good enough mainly releasing for those itching to try out chrome beta.
Whats new?
Massive kernel upgrade: misc wifi updates, fix ext 2/3 mountisg issues, add in call recording feature, updated kgsl (3d driver) to version 3.3 (cherry-picked partial upgrade to 3.7), other misc updates required for new kgsl driver. source is temporarily at https://github.com/drewis/tiamat-kernel/tree/wip9
Rom: now build with proper ICS OPENGL support (ie 100% hardware accelerated)(well more like 80-90% for now). I still have several issues to sort before hwa is working properly but this is a great start (imo). Screen off animation not working due to hwcomposer issue.
Notes:
This build is much less stable than p7 (or lower) but faster
You must turn off auto rotate in Display Settings or you will experience lockups that require a battery pull. (i know whats causing it but it will be a fairly difficult fix)
kernel build #119 which means i build the kernel 119 times to get this far, and that number is much much lower than the actual number of times i built the kernel before i got it booting and (mostly) working. Just something to think about, in terms of how much work it took to get this far
camera preview dont work but still takes pictures. also does not include rapmv78 newest fixes for panorama and barcode (didn't seem necessary to include them sinc camera preview doesnt work)
Gapps need to be flashed separetly.

Apps2sd: modded scripts.
now has dalvik-cache to sd. just run 'a2sd install' again to activate
swap support (if you have a swap partiton on your sdcard)
new help menu run 'a2sd' without arguments to see
Note: all apps2sd info is logged in logcat. Its at the very beginning under the evervolv banner.
USB: native usb mass storage - almost but not working yet (but we're closer)
Note: even though it doest work we now have some annoying usb and adb icons persistent in status bar. sorry i tried to rush the usb fix into this build and didnt feel like taking it out after it didnt work. (we're gonna start porting new usb gadget eventually to fix this)

Init.d support.
Included my homebrew a2sd that just sets /sd-ext/app and app-private on the first boot (assuming you wiped with fastboot (actually i think it works without wiping as well but untested)) all the apps already on /sd-ext will then show up without further involvement. (if you wiped with recovery it probably removed the apps on /sd-ext. You can prevent this by going to advanced and only wiping cache and userdata.)
If you dont want that. remove /system/etc/init.d/05mountext and 10apps2sd then flash dark tremors.
Google TTS should now work (was missing a library)
SuperUser should be working.
Removed some extra fonts (saves like 2mb)
e2fsprogs and bash are actually included in this one.

Use N1 boot animation
Gallery works, Maps work.
Haven't had a single crash in 1 hour (make that 2 hours) of use so far. I even watched a video on youtube.
Might be the best one yet (let me know).

EV-Alpha1 ics-passion-ev-alpha1.tar.bz2 - 127.2 MB
I joined with the Evervolv team.
This is stock evervolv ics (with my passion device directories).
These are build without opengl but with the rmcc egl hacks and the old gralloc.
This is an eng build with strictmode disabled. So all 'extras' that come with eng are included. (except strict mode)
I added gapps. and Bextons usb mass storage app.
Tested sound and gps they work.
Other than that gallery crashes, boot animation is too small, maps won't load.
Pedlars notification widget and CMSettings aren't in this one.
Nothing drastically different from alpha13. Just a different build tree.
Alpha13r1 ics-passion-alpha13r1.tar.bz2 - 134.3 MB
Exactly the same as alpha13 but without opengl enabled.
Difference: Notably slower, but all the apps work and no crashes. This is much more usable than alpha13. Im gonna stop messing with opengl until we get a proper kernel.
Alpha13 ics-passion-alpha13.tar.bz2 - 131.4 MB
In my failure to bring real hardware accelaration; here's a little hack for you.
There is alot of hype floating around about hardware (gpu) acceleration. The truth is nobody with adreno gpu has it. They only have software acceleration. Some have gotten it to work better than others. Personally i have not put very much time into the 'software hacks' being used. Because heavy kernel mods need to be made to get proper gpu acceleration; on this I have spend nearly 40 hours on with no notable progress made. I'd say in total I have spent 200+ hours trying to make this rom work but it really isn't an easy task. This rom is still very unstable and won't ever work properly until we have proper gpu acceleration. For general purpose (ie. Calls, Messaging, Web Browsing, Music) it works fine, please dont expect more from it. Thanks for testing.
Includes latest from CM.
Ril has these options available in build.prop:
ro.telephony.ril.v3=signalstrength,skipbrokendatacall,facilitylock,datacall,icccardstatus
Only one that is enabled is signalstrength. You can try a combination of them an see if it fixes your data issues.
Fixed (from alpha12): Sound, GPS, Mobile signal, Enable opengl (w/ software hack)
Removed DTApps2sd since it won't work without init.d support.
Gallery keeps force closing. Don't know why.
Settings keep crashing. Don't know why.
Alpha12 ics-passion-alpha12.tar.bz2 - 123.0 MB
EDIT: DO NOT DOWNLOAD THIS. Looks like sound is broken too. Looks like alpha10 is the best bet sofar. Only downhill from there.
EDIT2: err looks like you can push audio.primary.qsd8k and audio_policy.qsd8k to get sound back. (untested)
EDIT3: I was wondering why system size was so much smaller lol.
DISABLE OPENGL: The HWA hack just sucks too much.
Use N1 stock bootanimation. It's cooler. (Oh, and I don't care what you think)
set config_hspa_data_distinguishable to true (Get an H instead of 3g)(I like it more)
Add some overlay items from crespo
Add some optimization cc flags
There were a couple ril changes to cm, maybe this will fix your data issues?
It seems Gallery will not work unless opengl is enabled (regardless of dalvik heap size)
Add htop, powertop, nano, vim, e2fsprogs (when using adb shell type bash to get them to work)
Remove Maps: So you can install the market version.
GPS is broke. It couldn't get it to build so just copied gps.mahmahi from previous build but that didnt work. I'll sort it out later. If you need gps dont upgrade.
Added Darktremor's Apps2sd modified for native bash support (in xbin). But it is not working. /sd-ext is not being mounted. It wont execute at runtime. The way it is set up. init.rc calls etc/init.local.rc calls bin/sysinit calls xbin/run-parts which calls etc/init.d/05mountsd now for somereason 05mountsd is not installed as executable even though it is executable in my out folder. changing 05mountsd to executable afterward still doesnt work. maybe someone can help me out here. my thought is init.d isn't setup properly. Also i would like to keep sysinit (or run-parts) being called from init.local.rc to keep init.rc and init.mahimahi.rc cleaner.

Thanks texasice, great work! Will test now. To clarify, is the partition layout mandatory? I have blackrose and can change it myself, but any rationale on this 220/16/200 layout in particular would be helpful.

Any system partition with 200MB or more will work [But the ramdisk is setup for the sys220/cache16/data200 it should still work with other layouts though]
How is texting speed on this one without HW Accel?

I removed gralloc from this build so it is much faster than alpha8. Texting is fine for my slow fingers
So what is to become of the stock Rom?

this is exciting.
And my N1 lives again. This is awesome.
I sometimes do get frustrated by lack of processor and memory. but I just can't seem to upgrade from my N1. Maybe if I get ICS on my N1 I might not have to.

Thats the idea lol. If i could afford a new phone i would get a a galaxy nexus. But im poor so nexus one gets all my love
Even without hardware accel, alpha 9 feels pretty usable.
Thanks for your efforts - great work!
If do this...does it mean that changing Roms is not as simple as just going into recovery and flashing the ROM? Does it take more steps like changing the partition again?
Reserved Spot for later =D

Simply no. You have a couple options. 1 you can flash the cm7 i built and keep the my new repartitioned hboot. (This is where you need the recovery i provided to flash the cm gapps) 2. You can reflash the 'standard' blackrose hboot and put any rom you want on it. (Without installing my recovery)
Either way blackrose is mandatory. System img is ~192mb so it is too big for stock hboot. So the system partition needs to be grown.
Looks good!
But I will have to wait a little longer to dust off my N1 to try this, because I have a broken power button so I need trackball wake!

I assume you can make CM9 yourself.
Maybe you are the last person to try to use CM9 with blackrose.
Right?
I don't know why you hate blackrose
It's not possible. System apps MUST be on NAND. Period.
Sorry if im a bit rougth but you have to realize that google banned the ICS for N1 due the small system partition. They dont want to upgrade HBOOT because is so dangerous to do via OTA.

Stop spamming.
If you do not want this, then don't use it.
Threatening Devs in dev thread seems very inappropriate.
