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.

I think he knows....I believe he's hoping they will crack the bootloader soon...so should he wait and see. SE locked this thing down hardcore....so id say just install 2.1 for now.

problem is that you may install 2.1 and if the bootloader get cracked with current settings you may not be able to use that.

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.

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

I'd love to know how that they do make a custom ROM, I have found software for making custom roms but its just for HTC devices, that we can somehow help, it would be good to speed up a bit making MIUI rom for our xperia...as an example, I have enough time to work on it, but if I had enough nerves maybe
till now, any report regarding this post???? im waitng for it!!!!

Serious, MIUI will not happen - we dont have compatabile processor. MIUI requires ARMv7, we have v6
"MIUI Rom" you can find here - IS NOT MIUI... it's miui apked minicm
Now, mods - please close/delete this usless crap of thrad.

Gingerbreak not working

Hello.
Since i could post in the real gingerbreak thread i try to post it here.
According to the http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1044765 i should format my SD card and then i can install gingerbreak and try to temproot it.
The problem is that when i press "root device" it starts to work and after 45 seconds - 1 min it reboots so i go into Android Terminal and write SU and it says access denied?
Have tried to post it on several other forums... what am i missing?
/Schlibib
I assume you're on stock HTC software? That gingerbreak page says it *may* work on some Froyo versions but it doesn't seem likely.
I'd try to root using one of the proven ways found in the Evo forums. I'm guessing that this isn't working because it's intended to be used on phones running Gingerbread which the Evo does not have yet.
Don't misunderstand me.. the following questions insinuate nothing, just trying to get a little more info.
What device and software are you attempting to use GingerBreak on?
What do you hope/plan to achieve by using GingerBreak?
oh i'm so sorry.... so obvious that i should have mentioned that i have the OTA 2.3.3
i'm hoping to put in a better rom such as leedroid for better batterytime
