You know the type of Spica's Touchscreen Microcontroller? - Galaxy Spica General

Hi @all!
Since the developers here were able to enable multi-touch on the Spica, I wanted to ask what microcontroller is used in the Spica? Because in the X10 forums, we were able to strip a X10 to its bones and found out that our controller is named CY8C21x34 from Cypress. Now we're excited if we'll be able to use MT if enabled by our devs in 2.1
So, anyone knows which controller is used in the Spica?
If you want to crack open your device and have a look, here is what it looks like
Thanks in advance and cheers!

Thanks but i don't find it in there, since these are article numbers specific for Samsung. The manufacturer's description is different. But still - thanks for your efforts!

thanks to eken to show us this video.
My question is. If we would use our tytn, kaiser or some htc phone like touchpad iphone? exist an application similar to put in our winmobile?
the other question. if you see in the start of the video this guy have hacked or installed some usefull application in his wm/snapview side.
no one knows somethings about what he done on his shift?
Thx to all.
It's just an application called TouchPadPro (www.touchpadpro.com)
Nothing special about it all - IMHO it's just a gimmick, rather than anything truly productive.

gimmick? (what is)
i think can be usable, not essential but i'll try.
thnx
nothing about other software used by this chinese/korean/japanese guy?
I think somebody buying Shift just because it can be hacked. Something like iPhone's jailbreaking & unlocking
touchpad pro is only for iphone?
Yes! Touchpad Pro is the app. for iPhone.
I think WM program can also simulate it but there 's still not one out...

DREAMS of a better Polaris.

Polaris has potential, I know!
This is my first thread so don't go rough on me.
All this is about an idea, about a dream, about the future.
I wish there could be something we could all do to save our little Polaris's lives from the trash bin.
Wouldn't it be nice!?!
I suggest 5 things!
And i would need some hardcore programmers to be working on this..
Yes, for crying out loud, I am calling for Bepe, Olipro, Vivi, Udk, Pawel062, cmonex, misar, faria, tadzio, pof.. There are a lot of you guys. And really as far as I know you know what you are doing!
I am using Bepe's rom at the moment.. (bepe an update maybe?)
SO!!!!
YEA!!!
THE FOUR MAGICAL THINGS WE ALL NEED:
PROPER Graphics support - Coming in june with the Diamond i suppose.
Or if you are smart enough see how it
works in core player 1.2.4 and take it out.
PROPER Eased up system - I mean roms with all tweaks and tricks
+ make them empty, like totally empty!
PROPER List of applications - To show everything that is available for the
TC, Also more settings availability (up until
how big the application icons must be)
PROPER OVERCLOCK - What no one thought about this one?!?
PROPER Launcher - I have got one in mind, I can try to do it in
flash version, yet i'll need you guys to
program it for pocket PCs out there.
MAYBE THIS THREAD IS NEVER TO BE DISCOVERED
YET I BELIEVE THERE ARE LOADS OF OTHERS WHO
WANT TO START THE SAME THREAD!!!
Drivers+Easy System+Overclock= KILLING COOL EXPERIENCE
All the software choice, will help you decide what you really
want from the device.
I've got ideas.
I need help.
Post me a personal message to get my skype and other stuff.
Update: Changed the fonts.. not so big now..
Lot's of big fonts and requests from someone who doesn't appear to understand much about why his some of these requests can't be fulfilled.
Out of interest tcfanboy, how much cash are you willing to gift to people you've mentioned to do all this work for you?
I am not planning to sell this product, so there is no cash in this for me.
I am just saying i can contribute, i wish others could too..
I just like to have my device working, don't you?
don't be a pessimist.
I'm just tying to help.
If you don't like it, you can ignore it.
Big fonts are there to stand out. But yea i guess they are too big.
I know nothing about programming on a device such as a pocket pocket pc.
But i can program in pascal, delfi, and i am currently getting hold of c++..
I am not a lamer if that's what you are saying. I just need guidance.
Will you be of help?
People here are trying there best taking apart other devices and putting their codes into other. How about a new level?
how about writing the codes ourselves.
Just asking you if there is there a tutorial online? The one every beginner has read.
hey tcfanboy, thanks for the poll, u've got a point here but: u see all this work that the ppc wizes are doing is voluntary and asking them for stuff that they already know abt its not the best idea(my opinion). I'm sure they're doing their best to provide all of us with good roms and various improvements but they're not receiving any help from the company that was supposed to do all this work: HTC !
Anyway, HTC announced that they will release some sort of update in this month or next one for the devices with Q7xxx chips that will provide some sort of fix for the current issues but they didn't specify what exactly will the update do. And its not surprising considering they don't even admit they've got a problem with the video acceleration
I'm definitely looking forward to see your list of requests integrated in a rom and I'm sure sooner or later it will happen. Thanks to every1 working on any improvements!
according to an o2 germany insider at ppc-welt.info, there can not be software driver update, since this is software code on core-level, wich cant be solved by flashing a rom

i might be able to contribue with a ultra lite rom. i know i said i would release a new project rom but i want to mess more with a lite rom so will release a full and lite rom tommorow. if u all dont mind me removing almost everything like camera etc.. i can definatly get something really lite made.

acceleration can be turned on and off at any time. acceleration is nothing more than making dlls that turn on the acceleration and use it. manilla aka touchflo 3D is a example of acceleration in use. if u look at the dependencies of manilla then you will know the dlls needed for acceleration.
Manila runs on a quite different device though
The actual hardware could be disabled in the Polaris-generation through some sort of burning certain areas on the chip (some guy wrote about it in here a couple months ago) to physically destroy certain features. But giving effort to find out if that is the case by disassembling other ROMs is surely not the wrong thing to do! I guess I'll wait for some sort of fix or buy an Xperia if that one happens to arrive first

hey Pawel, if u'll integrate in your rom all the fixes and current improvements that vivi, pdaviet and udK have in their roms, it doesn't matter how lite the rom will be because we can always install on it the applications we want.

I don't know much abt wm platform but working in IT gives me a bit of a tech background and I'm learning fast, please correct me if I'm wrong but I think this video acceleration problem on Polaris is not easily achievable even with the dlls from Diamond because they are built for VGA and TC is using QVGA Right?

This is correct. But then again a driver is a driver and the resolution shouldnt play a role. nVidia drivers work for 1920x1200 as well as they do for some 1024x768 output... It could be different though for fixed resolution devices like our mobile devices are. We'll see, we'll see, or we might switch the hardware manufacturer...

Really? It looks like you're making so much promises both in Polaris Project, with the Glass ROM and now here.
thx
I am glad to get some Seniors here. Thx guys. I saw this post of all the htc programs..
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=344544
Well.. you should add the program list of the programs in the original rom.
Downloadable links and light description of features.
Yea, I am a demandive person! Someone must be.
Btw, there is an excellent company which makes software with understandable interface. Well.. I did not necesserely buy their products.. But the name is Vito. So this is the interface which should be used. If interested in them ask me I'll provide a free link. I am from russia. It's legal here. )))

Samsung i5700 hacked for multitouch, what does that mean for the X10?

Following on from THIS thread which raises a valid point imo...
The Galaxy Spica (also known as the i5700) has been blessed with multitouch support in some homebrew drivers that are making their way into homebrew kernels for homebrew ROMs, despite the official line that said phone doesn't support more than one finger at a time. Really drives home the point that "support" can refer both to the hardware's capability and the manufacturer's willingness to maximize it, doesn't it?

thought hardware cant support more than 1 finger at a time so regardless of what devs can come up with, its not gonna work??

To my knowledge no one has discovered what model the touch panel is. Right now the official word from SE is that the hardware doesn't support it.

As far as i am concerned, i dont really care if we get MT or not. But i dont see why SE would release their top end android phone without putting a MT capable digitizer on it, whether they enable MT or not. Maybe they know it is capable but never enabled it because of copyright issues with crapple.
This is just another pointless thread, When we crack the boot loader and can put on Custom Roms we will find out if its a yes or a no, till then we can all debade the meanings of life and all the other types to topics that are there to waste time.

It might be, in your opinion, the point of the thread is to highlight that another handset of which it's maker said MT wasn't available now actually is thanks to a developer, so there just might be a possibility that other handsets sold with no MT support might not necessarily be because of a hardware issue.

they have to say something, if it supports, SE wont launch drivers for it so soon... Without know the model of the panel, no way to know.

I just love how you refer to it everytime without fail, as crapple.
I think the best way is asking a SE dev if x10 supports MT
Maybe SE will enable it on 2.1 if the hardware supports it....

[Q] About PS3 Jailbreak

I'm sorry if i post this in the wrong section of X8 subforum. Because i don't exactly know where i should post this.
Anyway, I'm asking about PS3 Jailbreaking with our X8. Well, you guys probably know that we can jailbreak a PS3 with Android phones. But as i see in here http://psfreedom.com/wiki/indexp.php?title=Device_compatibility_list, X8 is not in the list. But at this line
Code:
[B]There are so many different devices that it's almost impossible to list them all here[/B]..
If you do not see your device here, then the first thing you need to do is try to figure out which controller it uses.
* Go to wikipedia and look for the page corresponding to your device.
* Look at the box on the left of the page, for the 'CPU' of the device
* Depending on the device, try to find which controller is being used by following this table
* [B]Once you found the controller for your device, match it with the first column of this page's table, and look at its status[/B].
i can assume that if it works for another device with same controller as our X8, it would also work with our X8. You know that X8 is using Qualcomm MSM7220, and in the list, it is completed. So can X8 be used for jailbreaking PS3? Or maybe the Jailbreak script was device spesific?
I'm using nobodyAtall's miniCM 1.0.0-RC1 custom ROM (many thanks to him and all xda-devs here).
And also if it cannot work on X8's ROM, could it work on HTC Legend-ported ROM? like racht's Gingerbread CM7?
Thank you very much, and again, i'm really sorry if i post this into wrong section.
cheers. gerald:aldee_s
UPDATE : PSfreedom won't work on X8 right now, as it requires unlocked bootloader, and X8's bootloader is not yet unlocked, as well as X10mini, so we have to wait the devs to bypass the bootloader.
But there is an apps on Market called PS3 Brew Pro, it can jailbreak PS3 directly without recovery, is this for real?

... I think that jailbreack has also to do with the hardware, is it was only software thing, there would have been made a pendrive version of it too. You should contact with the app developer in order to learn if there is a hardare limitation.

as i read on the website, the required thing is the controller, and it says that our MSM7220 can do the jailbreak. but, when i read HTC Legend and Hero, it says that, the jailbreaking needs the phone's bootloader to be unlocked before we can proceed. So i think the first step to jailbreaking with X8 is to unlock the bootloader.
but my question is, there is an app on the market called PS3 Brew Pro, the app said that it can jailbreak directly without recovery. thats why i confused, is it for real?

Help about Dual Touch

hi
i have a little problem about gesture module
first i have Xgins v3
i installed the module and it's not working
here's what i did
1. copy/paste x8gesture.ko to system/lib/modules
2. added the command to hw_config.sh in system/etc
3. installed multitouch visualizer 2
and it works only one finger
should i change something in settings or anything else ? i saw the videos on youtube and they had no problem i did the same thing as they did so what's wrong ?
thnx for any help
EDIT : i even installed froyobread v006 and it's not working in there, multitouch visualizer 2 only show me one finger

Hey, really this reply should be done by one of teh Dev.s but, since I had problems myself, allow me to reply for now.
First, one of the things that is not written here, in all these post, should be a warning: the Fake Dual - Touch or pinch-to-zoom, or any name used is not working on any Cypress cip device. please check Doixanh thread and follow the steps in order to check FIRST OF ALL if you have this or not.
In such case, miracles cannot be done for now, because all ROM's have Doixanh based module ....I am one of the unlucky ones as well.

Yeap so true. Doixanh's link on this issue is the most comprehensive.
He said: for the ones with Cypress chip, nothing can be done at the moment.
My understanding, Sonyericsson decided at a certain point to implement a different chip and changed structure. So you have to see first how you stand.
ahuh i see
thanks for your help
i think sony is just thinking about limiting users not helping them because we had the same problems on other product like playstation series and previous cellphones
wish you guys luck
I think they change the hardware for low costs...
If you´re using XGin 4.0, i would say it was the ROM, because the DT works flawlessly on my X8 in Racht ROMs and XGin 2.0 and 3.0, but in 4.0 it has serious problems...
