MultiTouch and Adobe Flash for Android 2.2.2

[taitony]

I have this wonderful S7 for one month and try to update to INDO 2.2.2 plus Joe's ROM (V1.1 stable). I know many of you experience the problem of multiTouch and Flash function after updating to 2.2.2.

The recovery of MultiTouch (it was working in 2.1) is due to missing permission, so you just download the file attached. Unzip it and use RE Explorer to copy it to /system/etc/permission/, over write it and chmod to 755. Reboot it and MultiTouch will come back.

Note: The change of this file is as below to add RED line.

<permissions>
<feature name="android.hardware.touchscreen" />
<feature name="android.hardware.touchscreen.multitouch" />
</permissions>

Even Joe's ROM include Flash but it does not work on my S7, so I delete and re-install. Then the flash is working.

Hope my share will be helpful.

BTW: I am waiting for Joe's new ROM for Taiwan Update (2.2.2). This is the latest release officially from Huawei.

Install RE Explorer but you need to root S7 first. Use RE Explorer to change the permission and copy the file to /system/etc/permission/.

Other way is to edit this file use RE's Edit.

I do anything but nothing happened. Where multitouch is active in gallery or browser.

 

[taitony]

If you use the file to overwrite or edit that file and nothing happen, then you should check the permission setting of that file. The permission should be rw-r--r-- same as other xml files. You can check this permission with Root Explorer. I fail at beginning as you but change the permission and reboot, then BINGO.

If do not know how to use Root Explorer, then I can not help.

I assume this only works on the S7 with a capacative screen.

YES. It is true. This can ONLY work for capacitive Screen.

 

[sopare2000]

i keep getting that the permissions cannot be changed cause the file system is read only any suggestions?

 

[taitony]

With this modification pinch to zoom is working even with Google Maps and stock browser.
