I wondered if anyone has tried SWYPE on the Desire and if there are alternatives to it? The videos of Swype look fantastic.
yep have it running on mine and it is perfect, much better than shapewriter, it does however stop the pinch zoom from working, this only seems to work with the stock keyboard.

Do you mean the pinch zoom doesn't work at all on the phone or just to enlarge the keyboard?
Where do you get swype for the android by the way?

That didn't work for me, just came up with expired when installed, got another version
Anybody wanting a working version then link is Here Not sure how long this lasts but it is currently working.
Hell yeah,

As my android is german, I don't exactly know what the menu items are called, but it should be something similar:
1. Download the .apk file and copy it to your phone's SD card
2. Go to Settings -> Applications -> Check "Unknown Sources"
3. Use an app like ApkInstaller, browse the apk and install it
4. Settings -> Language and Keyboard -> Check Swype
5. In an input field, long-press the field, choose "Input Method" and "Swype".
6. If you wish, change the Swype settings in Settings -> Language and Keyboard -> Swype.
That's it.
thanks for the comment. I am looking for apkinstaller in the marketplace but it's not coming up. I tried installing a couple of other apk installers but they both failed....
I'd post the QR code, but as I am a noob, I'm not allowed to.
So google for "apkinstaller" and you'll find it.
If not: What's the error message you get?

Thanks... I used an EoE installer in the end and that worked like a charm... Got Swype working but it's been crashing quite a few times..... I wonder when they will open the beta or release this as it does look fantastic.
I use Astro, just do a search for this app, very easy once installed.

huh. odd. glad you found a version that works for you
I managed to get in while the beta was still open so I was just trying to link you to the topic that seemed most relevant to your ask.
Bandare -
You can always use adb to install if you are hooked up to a pc...
Code:
adb install package.apk
does anyone tried using in landscape? i tried to install it in the emulator, it doesnt work on landscape mode.
also when will this beta expires?

Swype for the Desire - Just get it.
Sorry if this is an old thread, but just cottened on to swype thanks to the Mobile Buzz widget informing me. I'm new to Android and only had my Desire 2 months.
It is app nirvana! I'm running the beta now (1.56.30), and I must say, when it runs out and I have revert back to the stock keyboard and tapping away, I'm gonna cry. It works so well. Has increased my typing speed at least 3-fold. (HTC Desire with stock 2.1 ROM).
The only thing I'd like to re-enforce that was covered in another post, is that it's not made very clear by the developers how to start using it! After installation, get to an input screen and do a long press, and select the 'input method' option and check the swype box. It will stick with your stock keyboard if you do not do this.
Will happily pay/donate for this when the full release comes out, and will be very surprised if this does not become the standard implementation for touch screen typing very soon. The swype keyboard also works well with the tradtional tapping method should you want to type something unlikely to be in it's database, so why not?
Very very impressed with it so far.
Edit: Noticed a slight weakness. Not sure if this is fair, but it is not so useful if you are using the phone in landscape mode. It works to a degree, but you have to stick with one finger per word/swype. Not easy if your thumbs are not up to reaching across your keyboard in landscape. Can be uncomfortable. Recommend sticking with fingers instead of thumbs! But for one-handed, portrait typing this is still the daddy.
the new beta version, what is the full version number? 1.56.30......., I already have a modded version 1.56.30.7625.t100 installed. also how long on average does beta version expire? After requesting for an invite ages ago, I finally got an email from them to use their beta. is it worth installing it??
i've searched for an answer to this question but most keyboard problems i've come across deal with the entire keyboard freezing or lagging and usually changing settings like pop ups and autocomplete resolve the issue.
my problem deals with individual keys freezing. when this happens, the rest of the keyboard functions as normal. usually closing and reopeneing the keyboard or pressing other keys will fix it but that's really annoying to have to do. the delete key and space key freeze the most but i've experienced it with just about every key. i've tried every different keyboard in the market and tried changing keyboard settings but the problem persists. i don't know where else to turn so i decided i would ask on here.
i posted this in a dev thread earlier because i originally thought it was a rom issue, but the issue has repeated on several different roms and other people have confirmed that they're experiencing the same problem. i'm not sure how widespread it is, but it's definitely something that i think needs to be addressed.
i'll appreciate any response so thanks for any help in advance
If it is across all the keyboards you try, maybe it is something with your screen? I had similar issues with my phone, where if I would have two fingers touching the keyboard on different keys, it would flip out, and sometimes lag. I am currently using the HTC_IME keyboard and I no longer have issues. Btw my phone is an optimus v. Hope I helped. Cheers.

I have the same exact problem. And you're right on, my delete key will stop responding a lot of time. Especially when I long press it to delete words quickly.
I have used like 5 different keyboards with the same problem. This happens to every ROM EXCEPT Royal Ginger 2.1
And I have no idea why RG2.1 is the only cure...

They might replace it, but I wouldn't count on it. They'd probably factory reset it to see if that works. HTC_IME is a modded keyboard found here on XDA, it is highly themeable, but I use it for its precision and its multitouch functionality.

While there are modded versions of HTC_IME out there (such as jonasl's), HTC_IME is also the name of the stock keyboard that comes with all Sense/mySense ROMs.

You're kind of thrashing around trying to fix things by reflashing roms, but some of these problems you are having are known issues with simple fixes---if you'd just read the threads for the Roms you are flashing, you'd know that random reboots are mostly caused by setting the WiFi sleep policy to anything other than NEVER in settings. Hammerhead Rom had a fix for that in it but maybe it doesn't work for everyone.
Also the stock browser and stock keyboard can act buggy sometimes-so either download a different browser/keyboard from the market to try out (there some really good ones) and/or re-boot on occasion, just to refresh the system. It seems the keyboard gets laggy without regular reboots and maybe that has also affected the auto correct, although that could be due to something else altogether. I doubt that it's Rom related though.
Good luck solving your problems.
Thanks...haven't had much luck searching these forums. I have downloaded other keyboards but that hasn't solved the problem. It now appears that the dictionary is empty. When I turn on the option to display suggestions as I type, I see only names of people in my contact list. So...now I search for that solution...or I'll just flash another ROM... I just don't have the time to research every problem I have had and in my experience newer ROMs fix most of the issues I've had anyway.
Still a problem!
So nobody else has seen this problem? I can recreate it every time!
I restored my user dictionary from a backup and now I can see the words that should be autocorrected in the preview line above the keyboard. However, when it underlines the correct word and I press the spacebar...where it used to select the underlined word, it now ignores it and does not perform the autocorrect even though it knows what it should do...
This is driving me crazy now! Suggestions?
Thanks.

Reflash from stock. or upgade to tiamat 2.1 hammerhead.i think there is a system app deleted on your xoom.
Hello,
I am writing this to help other newbies who may want to switch to Cyanogen for the first time on their Epic 4G. There were a few things I needed to do after to get everything working the way I liked and I figure this will save some people time.
What do I need to do prior?
There are many how-to's which will help but I had my Epic stock rom rooted so it was as simple as flashing cyanogen through recovery. Here is the link for a "how-to" root the stock rom if you wish to do it this way. It was the easiest way for me though the official guide says "Rooting the stock firmware is neither recommended nor necessary."
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C9eaCtiS0Bo
Where do I get Cyanogen?:
You can download it here. I am running the 10.0.0 stable build.
http://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Epicmtd_Info
I have no google apps:
This is a problem with any Cyanogen installation. Easy fix, download & install the gaaps package from the link below and your marketplace will be back.
http://goo.im/gapps
I don’t have Navigation:
Easy fix again, download the google maps app. Here is the app store link.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...DMsImNvbS5nb29nbGUuYW5kcm9pZC5hcHBzLm1hcHMiXQ..
I don’t have voicemail:
While you can use any voicemail app I wanted the one I had on the stock rom. I linked the app below and your voicemail will be back as soon as you install it. You need to open the app after so that it will activate.
https://od.lk/d/MjRfMjc2MDY5MF8/vtt-sprint.apk
I am getting texts from 9016 every time I get a voicemail:
From reading it seems the stock rom blocks us from seeing these but they are in fact needed for voicemail to work. To fix this I used a free app called “RedList”. Simply add 9016 to the RedList within the app, change the settings to disable both notifications, and this will problem will be solved. Here is the app store link.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...=W251bGwsMSwxLDEsImNvbS5saW5ub3IuUmVkTGlzdCJd
Text messages no longer have separate colors for me and my recipient:
The stock android text display is white and I hated this after getting used to Samsung’s nice colors but luckily you can solve this in two ways.
(One) A theme manager is built into the interface section of your settings page. After searching through almost every free CM10 theme I found this one I liked. It does NOT touch too many things only adding a brushed metal look and displaying text messages how I wanted them. There are a few colors to choose from but I went with Blue.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1992980
(Two) Replace only the MMS app with one that is color coded. Please note that unlike the above, to reverse this down the road you will need to find a stock mms app package with an installer. This is good for people who are sure they want this and only wish to change the colors of the messenger, while the above is good for people who like to switch themes often being able to revert back at any second. Link for the colored mms app.

Morror: https://od.lk/f/MjRfMjc2MDY5MV8
Facebook pictures no longer sync with my existing contacts:
This is a small problem, but still one that I got used to having with the stock rom and wanted to correct. From reading this seems to be a problem related to later Android versions, not just Cyanogen. The fix for this is easy as well, search out a free app called “UberSync for Facebook”. I had the regular facebook app installed & logged in prior and UberSync logged right in, got the pictures, and updated my contacts.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...wsMSwxLDEsInJvLndlZWRuZXQuY29udGFjdHNzeW5jIl0.
I no longer have Swype:
Despite having the nice physical keyboard (the whole reason I got the Epic) I still got used to using Swype here or there. I don't think I will be allowed to link this file here but you can find it on "certain" sites.
Notes:
Despite reports that Bluetooth can be problematic, I use it daily with an earpiece and have yet to experience any issues. GPS & 4G also work great. If any links are broken send me a PM! I check my email daily.

Why are they so bad? The bring you right to the download and I won't be deleting these files from my dropbox. Much better IMO than dealing with one of those sites where you have to wait 45 seconds for a download link to appear in a sea of other spam download buttons.

Well...
No MD5/SHA1 to compare against to make sure you have a complete download.
People's dropbox tends to get too much traffic and the link becomes dead.
You basically cut out the original author(s) of the file.
Based off # 3: They could need the ad revenue, and/or want to track download activity if they're self-hosting.

I know this isn't directed at me, but the things I have on my box account are older things( Samsung Moment update tool), things I've done for myself, or things that I've found for other people. In other words, things many people don't care about.

#1 - I think more people are concerned with a working link, if they download the archive after and it somehow gets corrupted i'm sure they will just try again
#2 - Valid point though my files don't have a great enough of demand to warrant this. If this changes I will change my links.
#3 The only thing that wasn't mine with a dropbox link was the MMS app and I only mirrored it in case the original link were ever taken down. If it will make you happy I can include the original link as well. For the voice mail app, its simply the sprint one ripped from a stock rom.
Though your points are valid, I think you are sort of just being picky bud
Thanks for the VM download link. Only thing I want is task manager which I had installed on CM9. Is there stockish one that works for 10?
Try the flashable one from here

swype
I reinstalled swype 3 or 4 times with various upgrades and it would always "expire" and I'd have to figure out how to get it working again. I am running 10.1 RC5 now and it has a decent generic swype-ish virtual keyboard. The thing missing is that you can't finish your text and go back and fix any misspelled words by touching alternate suggestions. You have to catch them as they come up. It seems like at first I could still do that, but I can't figure out how to get the suggestions to come back up.
I'm over swype.

You need a different Kernel. I have been using didy's kernel for a while. You flash CM10.1 and then you flash the kernel. CM10.1 has its own kernel that overwrites what you flash. So when you update, i think you have to reflash the kernel. I haven't screwed around with it since I installed rc5. I think I did CM, then the kernel, then the big mem patch. I never was able to figure out how to update the radio. I always ended up with "no voice service" or worse.
There is a thread in the developer forum that has the links to the kernel downloads. I am running one from may 30 and haven't updated.

[KERNEL][CM10.1]Nitest Kernel for Crespo4G/Epic4G Modem with Voodoo Sound&Color
When you say you couldn't update the radio, you just mean the cell service radio, right? Not wifi? I don't have cell service on my Epic, so that wouldn't be a problem for me... just as long as the wifi radio still works
Also, what specifically do you mean by "or worse"?

Yeah. That's the one. I looked at my about phone and it said "didy".
I saw a thread about the nexus radio being hot **** and I fooled around with it. I got either "no voice service" or no nuthin. I was able to flash back to the regular epic radio. there is another thread that had all the flashable zips with different modems. luckily the epic one undid my stupidity - at least on my phone.

Thanks man, I'll give it a shot. CM10.1 is running pretty smoothly on my phone, but it could be better and battery life is not an issue for me.
I'll be sure to run backups before I do though :good:
Thanks
These tips helped - I just made the jump to CM 10.1, and although there are a few quirks it has been great. Your list really helped.
FYI, one thing I ran into was the auto-rotate didn't work. I followed the directions here:
http://epiccm.blogspot.com/2012/01/boot-el30-stock-from-sdcard.html
the first time, there was no change. I tried again (and calibrated like 6 times) and it worked.
Has anyone noticed the physical keyboard doesn't always work the same? In some places, you have to hold down shift or Fn while pressing the key you want (for example - hold shift while pressing A, rather then pressing shift then pressing A). It's not consistent - some inputs work like the keyboard did before. Does anyone have any suggestions how to fix this. Not the worst thing (I'm just glad I still have a physical keyboard), but I would prefer it work the way it did before, or if that's not possible, at least be consistent.
And the smiley face button on the physical keyboard doesn't work either. I mean, it's like 2005 where I have to type out my 's!!

I have noticed that the physical keyboard doesn't work right in the browser. Shift and Fn don't seem to work. I am usually in such a hurry that I just close it up and use the virtual keyboard if I want to have punctuation. It honestly didn't occur to me that it might be fixed. I can't offer that fix. I am just offering emotional support and validation.:good:

I noticed that the default browser you have to hold the shift or fn key while pressing the desired key to get it to work. Apps and os seem to work with a tap od these keys and then a hit of the desired key.I recall a while back a thread about the smiley and since it was not a default key the consensus was that they would not be adding the functionality to cm. While on the topic...same goes with the .com function.

I'm sorry i want to ask, how we modify system setting look in CM? Thank you..
Hi guys. I'm new on this forum.
I've been trying out a number of different roms out there on my S4 until I found the one I like. FoxHound Diamond Dogs 3.4. With norwegian regional settings. Based on Android 4.3 I believe.
But I've discovered something weird while typing. Anywhere on the phone. While SMS messaging, typing URLs in the web browser, typing on facebook etc. The phone doesn't want me to type the letter combination "ae". Instead it replaces them with the letter "æ".
In norwegian we put an "-en" ending to a word sometimes. Pretty much like you in english would put a "the" in front of a word.
For example cola and colaen (the cola). My phone somehow interprets that as I want an "æ" letter. And it refuses to let me go back and correct it and it drives me nuts! Sofæn, colæn etc.
Is this some kind of feature in this ROM that can be deactivated somehow?
Some sort of typing assistant or something.
I installed the swiftkey keyboard to see if that fixed it but it didn't.
Any ideas?
Bump!
Bump!
I have the same problem! Using FoxHound 4.4, awesome rom, but the "ae" to "æ" is driving me crazy
Does anyone know how to fix this?
Thanks in advance!

But I've discovered something weird while typing. Anywhere on the phone. While SMS messaging, typing URLs in the web browser, typing on facebook etc. The phone doesn't want me to type the letter combination "ae". Instead it replaces them with the letter "æ".
In norwegian we put an "-en" ending to a word sometimes. Pretty much like you in english would put a "the" in front of a word.
For example cola and colaen (the cola). My phone somehow interprets that as I want an "æ" letter. And it refuses to let me go back and correct it and it drives me nuts! Sofæn, colæn etc.
Is this some kind of feature in this ROM that can be deactivated somehow?
Some sort of typing assistant or something.
I installed the swiftkey keyboard to see if that fixed it but it didn't.
Any ideas?

Already tried another keyboard app, but still the same?
Already Tried to check the keyboard setting? Uncheck automatically replace?

Yes. Swiftkey is installed, and the problem is still there. Also checked the settings, cannot find anything that would explain the replacement. Weird..
