I don't think this would work under Andriod tbh. Even if it did it isn't *true* multi-touch, it's not really what you'd expect at the moment, I think it will get better though, but because Andriod is difrent from WinMo I highly doubt it would work for it... Correct me if I'm wrong.
multi touch is coded into the application and resistive touch screens can do multi touch but the sdk that was released on xda is for multi touch on wm6.x

its not true multitouch, better call it dualtouch. when touching the screen with two fingers, the device reports the coordinates in the middle of these two touch spots.
with a sudden change of coordinates an app can guess you are using two fingers, so it can calculate the second touch spot using some math voodoo.
so simply said, its not important if you use windows mobile or android, its important your app supports dualtouch by itself!

mmh, seems my english is not that perfect to understand what you try to tell you. i didnt want to correct you, instead i wanted to clarify whats behind the technology of dualtouch. btw multitouch means more then two fingers

Multi-touch impleis more than one. (Multiple)
Dual touch specifies only Two (2) touches, Tri-touch would specify three (3) touches. So Multi-touch is correct.
From Thefreedictionary.com
mul·ti·ple (mlt-pl)
adj.
Having, relating to, or consisting of more than one individual, element, part, or other component; manifold.
hehe multitouch doesnt even work on the hero properly never mind on a resistive touch screen!!

Hello!
Anyone know if there is a Stock exchange application on the Touch Diamond?
Just like the one in the IPhone.

Im getting used to that response. Theres simply nothing new these days that works WITH the Diamonds VGA screen rather than against it.
Im seriously beginning to wonder why I bought a Diamond.

Okay so whats the solution for the stock exchange app then? There isnt one.
There are no damn apps being developed anymore for WM especially on high end VGA devices.
I too would like a decent stock exch app.. if im moaning over nothing, point me in the right direction and i'd gladly shut up
Well it wasn't a good app.I better just wait for a better app to come a long.

I can only see about 1/2 of the cells vertically. I guess it only works if you reduce your text size in windows... but then the phone itsn't finger friendly anymore.
yes,i also have that problem.
Try this:
http://www.pocketx.net/products/pocketstockmonitor_ppc/index.html
I used on my Kaiser and use in my Diamond...
Works perfect.
It has only one issue...
SOmetimes, when you starts the program, there is a fade on the screen... But you have only to press the power button twice and the programs goes well...
Would be great if HTC Home has a tab for stock exchange and share price update. HTC did it for weather, why stop there. Stock price should be next.
Yes,i agree. Hopfully a application that will work perfectly with the TouchFLO 3D.
Stock App Think Anywhare
I use Think Anywhere from Think Or Swim, its pretty cool, but is more than just quotes, Its a whole trading platform. Need subscription, but no deposit requiredment. You can do Paper trading with it.

Ok,il think i going to try it out.
Check out this video: http://tests.magnus.de/mobile/artikel/exklusiv-video-htc-touch-hd.html
It's the new Touch HD with HTC's Stock Market Tab in manilla! Who will be the first to port it on diamond?
Wow,that one looks really great. Hope somone can make it to the Diamond

Hello,
Apologies if I'm in the wrong place (again).. I'm trying to buy a new phone and would love to run an android port on it. I'm currently looking at Sprint - at the HTC Touch Diamond ($199 after rebate etc) or the HTC Touch Pro ($299.. less desirable) the sprint site doesn't mention a querty keypad for the Touch Diamond.. Is it fair to assume the Touch Diamond is not a good candidate for android - or is there a touch screen keyboard now?
I'm really sorry if this post is off topic.. I've been all over the intertubes trying to find a good smartphone that will effectively run an android port (I'm well aware its under heavy development) that will atleast make phone calls (or should be able to soon). If the Touch Diamond won't work - can someone recommend a different phone?
Thanks,
Keith
Well seeing as the HTC magic and Hero are both non qwerty it would be safe to assume that there is an on board virtual keyboard.

Would anybody know for sure if we will be getting multitouch when 2.0 is released?
I read on the Planet Android home page that it is included.
The actual article is from this site though.
http://blogs.zdnet.com/Burnette/?p=1436&tag=col1;post-1436
The most important new feature in Android 2.0 is support for multi-touch devices. Up to 3 fingers can be tracked on the screen at a time.

I'm not sure if I should believe this or not, since other sources have not mentioned anything about multitouch in 2.0. What do you guys think?
MotionEvent- can now report simultaneous-touch information for devices that support it. Up to three pointers can be tracked simultaneously.

we have had multitouch on Cyanogen's Rom since 4.1.11.1 or maybe 4.0.4. But I am guessing you don't have root. Well it rocks so hang in there

Actually, I've been running CM Mod since 4.0.4 and the only multitouch i am aware of is the one in the browser, but i'm talking about multitouch in all of our apps, not just browser.
No. The G1 doesn't have "true" multitouch hardware. The screen cannot detect the position of more than a single finger, but we've been able to hack it so that we can get readings on the distance between two different touch points. This is what allows us to use pinch zoom, but its not good for much else.
Ok.. So I searched a while, and I'm not sure if I was just using the wrong terms, but I couldn't get a result that answered my question.
Anywho.. I'm using Fresh Toast 2.0b2, and I'm having an odd problem when playing games that have touch input.
For example... Whilst playing the game "Radiant" The phone slows down considerably when I use the touch screen to move my ship.. I would say framerates cut almost in half.. but clear up as soon as I lift my thumb from the screen..
Same thing happens in the game "Blow Up" When I tap-hold the bottom of the screen to pick up the bombs to drag to the beams, the phone slows WAAAYY down, but clears up the moment I drop the bomb/lift my finger from the screen..
Could this be a ROM problem? Background App Problem? Just one of the quirks of the Hero?
Any input will be seen as valuable.
Thanks,

FreshToast is buggy right now - hence the DEV rom titleing.
I also have noticed general touch bugyness. Especially slow responses to touch.

Not a ROM problem, Not specific to your device. I feel like its a problem with HTC's multitouch drivers.. Ive noticed the same problem since I got the phone in October. I'm pretty certain when you touch the phone, the Hero is looking for another touch point so it delays the phone.. The HTC Hero doesn't use the same multitouch drivers as other 2.1 devices even on the 2.1 ROMs, Thats why most multitouch programs on the market dont work right for the Hero, and also why I'm jumping to EVO, Hopefully HTC EVO doesn't have the same problem.

That definitely makes sense. Wish I would've known about the EVO previous to my purchase of the Hero..
So I did 2 neocores. One without touching the screen got me 25 dos. Then I touched the screen thru the whole benchmark and got 4.9 dos. Wow that's a big difference!

That should be seen as a deal breaking bug for the Hero.. We should all go to Sprint and DEMAND EVOs.
Unless its not present in the official 2.1, I'm going to do what I can to get an EVO.
yeh its really weird how it works right. .27 and touch input didnt play well. at all. the biggest problem is the sh*t digitizer we have. it only senses x OR y moving AWAY OR TOWARDS eachother. it isnt true multtouch. a good example is to download multitouch paint from the demo market. it will read both fingers fine until one crosses the x or y axis in opposite directions.
but anyways back to when you touch, i think toasts source is amazing for the .29 but once htc releases the real .29 source he will really work his magic. .29 fixed alottt of the issues with stuff like music and touch having their own "processes". in .27 they were all bunched together and that made ultra lags while using bt and messing with phone.
This is fixed in Fresh Toast 2.1Final.
I love those two guys.

Yes but it doesn't really work well. Himalaya doesn't have resistive screen, so it's just a hack to detect double touch (not more!).
If you want to observe how it exactly works open Notes and put one finger on the left side and another on right. Now try to move those finders down. You will get one continous line at center of the screen.
Try it

Yeah i know. the hima does have a resistive screen, it doen't have a capacitive screen. Otherwise we would have multi touch.
