Swype problem - XPERIA X10 General

Has anyone noticed that swype is not as accurate as it use to be ? The new version sucks . Anyone else have same issues ?
Sent from my X10a using XDA App

I agree. I wish I could go back to the old one. It was way more predictable.

Ya I know we can't use old one right?

My irritation started when the vibrate on keypress function stopped working.
Then, I realised the stupid Tips window kept opening up every alternate word
And finally, to top it off, its not accurate any more
Edit: Well I sent them an email about it, let's see what they have to say

Yup the beta one was far better. I loved the concept of swyping instead of tapping but the new swype is so bad I'm now using SwiftKey
Sent from my X10i using XDA App

Yep. The new SWYPE is definitely a lot worse than the previous betas.

For the record, I agree. It also seems to be less compatible with most fingers than the previous version...

i still have problems with skype due to its expiration on my phone, any idea how to make it work again?

Go to 4shared dot com and write swype and there is a file called swype x10 look for it and install it . Works like charm

thank you for the tip, works very good, but I only get English as a language, any idea how to install new languages?

Not sure. Go to swype website and register to get new beta then it will have m many languages

This doesn't work for me - installs fine but doesn't appear in input methods list. Install at your own risk as it has access to lots of personal data on the phone.
EDIT: Forgot I needed to enable it in settings. Hooray Swype is back. Shapewriter is just that much more painful in comparison

yup I've also been having problems with swype.... no haptic feedback and predictions are off to
Wrote to them. There reply:
Hi Soumya,
Thanks for writing with your feedback.
Our prediction algorithm has recently undergone some changes, not all of which have worked out write as we had planned. We're actually in the process right now of prepping a new beta release which will hopefully fix these issues, and then we'll begin the process of distributing to our preloaded customers where appropriate. I can't give any kind of ETA for these updates, as it's still a work in progress, but know that it is definitely being worked on.

SE is really straight forward about answering but hesitating to tell us the truth so you have to plan your life base on nonsense comes out of SE customer service department.

[REQ] Swype's new keyboard technology

wow i wonder if it really works like that or its just for the interview

Mind share with us the download link, so we could test it out?
yes yes download link
SlideIT and www.shapewriter.com
I haven't tried SlideIT, but I have been using shapewriter for awhile. Only downside is that shapewriter isn't recognized when using a few 1 or 2 apps.
SlideIt
I tried the Shapewriter beta when it came out for WM. I went and bought Slideit as it is much better. It has a mini graffiti and it easily learns words and you can turn off the recognition mode for passwords and other spcecial needs. I am running this on a Kaiser and use the KB all the time and now I rarely use it. Not sure I would even worry about a qwerty kb again with this app.
OK I TAKE MY COMMENT ABOUT SHAPEWRITER BACK
i reinstalled it into my phone and WOW lol
its really easy to use.
i think everything should try it out
any free software available?
Awesome
I am the slowest typer/texter ever. So I just purchased the ShapeWriter and it is worth every penny.
I think this is the second best thing ever created, next to toilet paper.
It's nice, but unusable for me, because I usually write in Czech!
new version should support xT9 and I've found ShapeWriter with czech t9 from sunny soft -> PM
Yeah... English, but how the **** will they port it to other languages? Import whole dictionaries or what... lol.

this software isnt out yet. if you go to their website you can read all about it.
I'm really interested to see how swype will work... I've signed up so I get notification when its out
I downloaded ShapeWriter and its working on my unlocked Fuze. I paid $19.99 for it.

Possible to extract the keyboard app?

Hi,
I saw a demo of the keyboard app on the Sony Ericsson X10 phone and it seems to be pretty nice!
Anyone know if it's possible to extract the app so it can be used in other android devices?
Edit: Added screens
not many of us even have the device yet... so i'm not entirely sure how hard anything will be without root.
secondly i'm not sure this has much to do with android development.. might be better off in the themes and aps section .. being that you are asking about an app?

Anyone can extract the input.apk for install with x10?
I am buying a x10 in a non-chinese market and i am afraid that it doesn't come with chinese input..
I bought my phone in Belgium and it has a Japanese keyboard.
the keyboard of the x10 is not good. I'm now using the HTCkeyboard which I have download here on th Xda forum.

I agree, the first thing I did was install the HTC keyboard, I miss the left and right arrows however.

Swype Keyboard

Anybody use it? I got a cab, and it's pretty awesome.
Swype Videos
I'm thinking it should be built into a rom, but don't know if i should post it for copyright reasons.
External Link
u know the rules , u told us about it so u gotta deliver
WOW!! This looks amazing. Looking through their site, it doesn't look as though they would mind, as they are trying to have it distributed as OEM and have a beta group in progress at the moment.
i also tried swype. but its no option for me. you need many practice i think.
the resisitve screen from tg01 is not so good for this prog. the screen faster gets dirty and will be scratched, if you use this for long time i think.
on other screens like the hd2 it would work better.
Ive been using this keyboard for a few months now and it works 100% perfectly on my TG01.
If you dont want your screen scratched you can either:
1) Buy a screen protector
2) Not use your phone at all
Im using a martin fields overlay plus screen protector, and any slight scratches that may have appeared are gone within 2 days. Those scratches arent from using swype though
I've had no problems with scratches either.. just don't wrap your fingers in sand paper and you should be fine
SlideIT
I personally use SlideIT as an alternative to Swipe, same functionality but a less cluttered keyboard. Would highly recommend.
Cheers,
is very good but it don't had romanian language
swype is my fav keyboard i've ever used, i really would check with the rights holder before ditributing it in a rom though...
I use it for about 1 month and meanwhile it's my favorite keyboard ever..
Accuracy is amazing and it looks so cool. Couldn't get enough of it.

Try ShapeWriter. Same thing and its free in the market. Takes a little getting used to, but you can really fly with this thing

You mean a new update to the 3.0 Beta? Or are you just late to the party because this has been out for a bit now.
It's so much better!!! My only complaint is I wish it looked like the gingerbread keyboard. The GB keys are sexy.
How does it compare to FlexT9? Longtime Swype user, finally bought Flex a month ago after getting sick of the popup word choice window in Swype. Flex is nice but I miss the little shortcuts in Swype (like slide from , to space to insert ", ") etc.

i'm running Cyanogen nightly87
edit: nevermind, didn't see the part i had to uninstall the keyboard first
Still not a fan been trying since 3.0 was released
from my phone duh
I can uninstall the swype installer but won't allow me to uninstall swype application. I'm unrooted on 2.3 and I guess it's part of the system apps. Help needed?

It's definitely a lot better. I like that you can choose to add a word to the dictionary instead of it just being automatically added

Siri-Alternative in beta

Hi there,
I heard of Iris but for me it's.. well.. not that great. So I've created my own app called Risi. You can try it for free on the Android Market.
It would be great for me if you could test it a bit and give a little review of what Risi does well and things that are still missing. I'm going to include that new features then to make it an real Siri-Alternative for those without an iPhone.
Regards,
AndroidChromeOS
i don't know for some reasons its not speaking ... but replying fine!
I think it's a great idea and works but the engine it's a bit hit and miss. Even if the voice to text is recognised the suggestion sometimes is a bit random. Why not use Wolfram engine? No guesses why Wolfram apk hasn't been updated in market for a while.

Hi,
The application does not work on HTC Desire HD.
And I think he does not understand French?
Its betfer than iris.
u should include better ui , risi speaking to us.
better brains.

Thanks for all that feedback. Risi will speak soon to you.. I'm currently working on this. The program is already connected to trueknowledge, thats something similar to wolfram alpha. The problem is that the chatbot is before that technology so he have to decide witch informations have to be fetched. But thats what I'm going to fix today. Please stay tuned

Good luck, don's stress yourself too much.
Hope to hear from you soon
Thumbs up !
i dont need it to talk, but what is it for? it doesnt do anything other than say
"ill consider that for u"
or
"what are the ingridients"
I don't know what you've said to him but he only recognizes english atm
She's speaking now!!!!!!1111
Good !
And the French version please ?
I like !
Can it recognize german?
No it's english only at the moment. But I may add other languages in the future
I've tried other "assistants" and they always have that robot "Moon Accent" as Peter Griffin says.
This the same or no?
Yeah sure its the Google TTS-Service.. Write another one frome scratch would take years.
Woow cool its faster than Iris and it has a better chatbot. Keep on your great work.
all i could get her to say was Hi. She would say nothing more.
how should this work? i cant do anything in the app. it only says hi and thats it, cant click the mic or anything. do i miss something?
