So?
---------

SEUS failed
the latest standalone version .
so did the one in PC Companion . . . . XP-SP3 (SEMC driver / USB dongle issue )
So used a win7Pro laptop, and PcCompanion, did it straight away.
( busybox 1.18. , , git edition ???? probably cause)

They could, if the influx of "my phone is bricked" threads were really getting out of hand. Which they aren't.

Not to you ofcourse.
Anyway changed it.
meh. just let the noobs brick their phones. just means more phones sold right? they will all have to replace their phones, and if they cant afford it. well they are probably better off without it....
Rejoice! Had to" continue to wait!

About X8 MultiTouch Kernel

As we all seen, Multi touch kernel, finaly hit Xperia X10...And now i wonder, can you port the Multi-touch to X8 ?? Any working dual-touch Kernel for it?? Please post links....If you got a Kernel for Bin4ry's flasher(X8) It would be GREAT...
plz , stop posting questions about multi-touch on X8 , if you search the whole internet you will see that there is no kernel , update or anything in order to enable multi-touch on x8
if you look at xda-developers forum , you will see several topic about it!

I know, but i really want somebody to port the kernel from the Xperia X10. Can't it be done??
You can't. And looks like you didnt read any of the posts there because, if I remember correctly, all of the threads tell you it's impossible to play with the kernel until the bootloader gets cracked.

Correct me if i am wrong: Why don't you play with an firmware for bin4ry's flasher, it's got kernel.sin file, modd it, then flash it with custom firmware, should do the trick , don't you agree?
No cause phone don't accept unsigned firmware files.

Because it is signed by Sony Ericsson.

so, can't we make a driver with fake signature that looks like SE. ?or Mod the Kernel signed by sony?
NO, if that was possible we would already have multitouch, custom kernels, fully working custom ROMs and we wouldn't have to crack bootloader...

Hi, I have question > On which phones is bootloader cracked? is very hard to crack it on x8 too? (i don't know about this very much but DT/MT would be awesome )
There are no SE phone that has cracked bootloader... SE put a lot of effort into locking it :/

Some people are trying to change to multi touch from drivers (we do not need to crack bootloader). Check this topic... (scroll down a little...)
so is there any hope to crack bootloader and change kernels? or we can forget it?
We all have to wait for bootloadercracking or SE release official update

That means they're really scared of what we did back then when they were selling the "dumb phones(K610,W660..etc..)" :> )

[Q] What do you think about this? multitouch?

Hi again I was randomly searching for google on multitouch then I saw this when I searched google news...
so will this be applicable and is it safe to do on x8?
link:
http://maboot.com/how-to-install-multitouch-drivers-on-android-enabling-multitouch-–-a-guide/1769/
oh!!! it's surprising that there no more add... but great news if real!!!
I am trying to flash the multitouch driver to my X8, Let's hope i won't Brick it

Thanks!!!
Flashing works, i am a little busy, i'll return and i'll try to make multitouch work with all apps later
update? I know there's a lot of skilled people in this forum, please try if these works so us noobs can know if it's safe to install..
These are drivers from x10 I'm pretty sure it will take more than a few minor tweaks to get working on x8. I really hope I get proved wrong though.

if I try this is there any risk of bricking, etc.?
Dammit, man who wrote that article is TOTAL n00b... he didn't even mention that it's for SE, nor that it's for Xperia, and ONLY for SE Xperia X10... that thing there is Bin4ry's flash bundle for X10 dualtouch...

Wait... don't tell me that you've successfully flashed this kernel and got multitouch? At least in multitouch visualizer??

Flashing the kernel is an success, aplying the multi-touch to all apps bricked my device. I restored Xrecovery backup and that's what unbricked it, try doing the step that aplies multitouch to all apps and tell me if it worked for you
He flashed the kernel?
I thought it wasn't possible to flash kernel on x8 show us a screenshot of your kernel version please?

Hmm, i think MultiTouch kernel was rejected, i got ver 2.6.29
But do you have dual touch in app called "Multitouch Visualizer", from Market?

Doubt it, I'm sure the MT drivers in the package are kernel dependent therefore wont work on stock x8 kernel.

Please help.!

i accidentally changed my build.prop in /system/build.prop(i think) and then when i rebooted i got stuck and it does not even show the samsung logo.. i can feel it is force closing something because it vibrates every once in a while.. can this be solved through flashing?
Dude you should have to edit the build.prop of your own phone not to replace the build.prop of your phone with the build.prop of other models
