instead of tapping the letters on the keyboard you swipe. you can enter the words faster with it cos you don't have to tap on each letter
watch the video. its shows you how it works

its not gonna drain the battery since it just replaces the default input method

Downloaded, installed, rebooted, ... nothing happened. I looked also for some settings, but i didn't find. Do you know how to activate swype???

u dont need to reboot after you install it. you should have swype working if you follow the installation process on the first post... look for Language & keyboard on the settings

I dont think theres a language pack for it. But theres another app in the market like swype called shapewriter and it supports different languages.

I would also like to have this and not just some HTC keyboard skin.

Search for HTC_IME. Heaps of threads on it running on Nexus builds et cetera.

[Widgets]HTC's version 2.0 widgets

I would like to share with you the new HTC Widgets Collection that was released with
the first beta rom of Desire HD but then HTC decided to remove them from HTC Hub.
In the package you will find all the 16 widgets:
Battery
Call mom
Coin flip
Day challenge
Dice
Fake call
Fortune cookie
Most contacted contacts
Notes
Quick record
Sand timer
Tasks
Tip calculator
Today in history
Translator
Word of the day
They were all downloaded by me and tested with RCMixHD (all versions)
and work great.
Happy downloading -> HTC_widgets

thanks man

Will this work on MIUI rom?

Yeah, go and install them now....
Sense widgets are (clearly) for Sense roms.

Are you sure? I think that at least the battery widget was working in Sense 1.x as i remember having it installed.
I can't test it right now cause i'm using an HD rom. Sorry

The widgets cause my Desire to freeze.

The file has not been deleted, just checked it.

Damn, i cant download the files. Is it possible for someone to upload it to Mediafire or any other file hosting sites?

Apologies if this is a dumb question, but are these just for the latest sense, or will they work on all versions?
Cheers

thanks mate

I'm currently using an HD rom so i can't test.

Hm, the battery widget doesn't work on my HTC Desire for some odd reason :S

doesnt work on my N1 (using modacos desire port w/ sense) trying to install it gives me "Failure [INSTALL_FAILED_SHARED_USER_INCOMPATIBLE]" and when i try to update one of the ones included in the rom it gives me "Failure [INSTALL_FAILED_UPDATE_INCOMPATIBLE]" does it just not work on the nexus even though I have sense ui?

working very good on DesireHD rom on Desire ))
thanks man!

HTC TOUCH INPUT w/ swype app???

is there a way to get the new HTC Touch input with swype function on the MyTouch 4G?? anyone know if there's an APP out there??

Which rom are you using?
You could try this.
www . multiupload . com/MBFRZ1IXXW (I can't post links.)
Make sure you enable "Trace" in the settings.

sense 2.1
2.32.531.1
kernel
2.6.35.10-g4dcb781

it didn't work...I downloaded it and installed using adroidzip and it says application not installed =(

Since there is an older version of HTC Touch Input already installed on that rom, you'll probably have to remove it first before installing the new one.
Are you rooted?

no not rooted...too much hassle =( can't root like before w/ one touch / click so been too lazy....oh well guess I'll just switch between HTC Touch for Chinese and Swype Eng inputs

the link could not download. Could you post other link?

[Q] Android 4.2.2 stock keyboard dictionary problem

Hi guys,
I have the same issue on every 4.2.2 ROM I tried. I'd like to check out the new swiping JB keyboard, but I can't get the Polish optional dictionary to work. Have you tried any downloadable language and succeeded? It says it's downloaded, but when typing the dictionary is empty (only contact names) and swiping doesn't work.
I'd be grateful for any suggestions - thanks in advance.

I use SwiftKey but this should work for you as well. Go to System / Settings / Language & Input and find the keyboard you are using (may have scroll to see it) To the tight of the name tap the icon for preferences. Sample in the keyboard's preferences you should be able to find languages. Change it.

Appreciation is a wonderful thing. It makes what is excellent in others belong to us as well.

Yes, I did it. Changing it doesn't make it work in writing. Only contact names still- that's the problem.

Sorry, don't know this one. Have you tried any keyboards other than stock?

Yes, I did. They work just fine. I want to see the new stock one and I can't in my language.

You're not alone! It is a real bug affecting lots! For me the issue is that all the APKs I find are all like this! I'm writing a more informative text which I will finish and post tomorrow hopefully. In the meantime, could someone extract a version of android keyboard where it's working and post it?
