Multi-touch Now on Spica!

i installed this earlier this morning and it works great! those samdroid guys are amazing at unlocking the hidden potential of this phone

Yep big improvement for the phone and the samdroid guys are soon releasing a new 3d drivers soon too. Kind of sucks that Samsung wasn't willing to give people what samdroid developers have done from the beginning.

multi touch means the screen can register 2 separate finger presses on the touch screen at the same time - its mainly used for "pinch" zooming on gmaps and gallery images etc.

at samdroid they also have a droidx ported keyboard which supports multitouch - which means you can hold down one letter and press another and it registers both. i've installed this but don't use it because i use swype as my keyboard

I kind of got it working but can't use it. It works on the home screen to zoom out and I downloaded the test app from the video and it works but it does zoom in browser/maps or gallery. Anyone else the same. The other thing is the samdroid tools app I got doesn't work it just force closes straight away. Is that why??
