Doixanh from the xda have release a kernel module that enable a dualtouch touchscreen driver for SE X8. Its something like a simulator. This mod is not 2 finger pinch2zoom nor a Dual-Touch, its still a work in progress and he mention that it might behave incorrectly. But he’s working to make dual touch possible in the future. hopefully, but his effort got my full support and respect.
His idea is to make the android system to detect a second finger event when touching the screen is brilliant. The second finger is only to trick the screen to detect a second touch even though really u are pressing one at a time.
This is how its work:- quoted from xda thread.
Very Important : How to zoom
Right now it supports only zoom-in, zoom-out, and rotate. I will improve it over time. For who says it's not working, please read this how-to very carefully:
- To activate gesture : Put two fingers near each other, lift one finger up.
- To zoom-in (make things bigger): Activate gesture near the center of the screen. Move your remaining finger away from the gesture position to zoom-in.
- [new in v003] To zoom-in with specified zoom-in position: Do a normal touch to the zoom-in position (your face in an image, for example), then activate the gesture a little bit away from the zoom-in positionshortly after the previous normal touch, then drag to zoom. I know, it's a little bit hard to understand ~.~ I will make a short clip for the tutorial
- To zoom-out (make things smaller): Activate gesture at the corner or the side of the screen. Move your remaining finger toward the screen center to zoom-out.
- To rotate : Activate gesture at the corner or the side of the screen.Move your remaining finger around the screen center to rotate.

Its kinda weird and awkward at first but with a few practising, u’ll get the hang on it. And its fun.
Requirement:
-Rooted
-xrecovery
-the driver
Currently from my testing, gmap doesn’t work. It work but with undesirable way in the browser. But this module thing is a good start.
There’s two way to installed the driver, manually or by xrecovery but i recommend using xrecovery if you are not a android expert. It is easier and safer.
Instruction for installation with update.zip:
- Download update.zip according to your current ROM
- Reboot and flash with xRecovery
- Report bugs to him.
