I am always surprised when I hear people dislike swype.... I've ALWAYS had a lot of luck with it, that is until I started flashing a lot of the ROMs out there.
When you flash, the settings are reset to defaut typically, and I find the default settings to be abysmal. I mean, I LOVE swype and the default settings just make me hate the keyboard.
With a few adjustments in Swype Settings it's back to how I know and love it. Just curious if others have noticed this? If you are having troubles, perhaps try these settings? Any other suggestions for me?
(1)
I turn off the Tip Indicator *I also delete the swypetips.apk*
(2)
I turn off Vibrate on keypress - not sure why, just seems to respond a LOT faster for me.

Thanks for posting these!
It makes the swype experience so much better.
BTW, anyone tried 8Pen keyboard?
I think now swype feels a lot better thanks for sharing your settings..
I have a question though, I have always liked the black keyboard from bionix fusion and now I am on Onyx and not sure how to install it.. If anybody knows, please let me know. Thanks..

The theme section has a lot of swype themes.
Glad this helped guys.

Honestly I never knew swype had settings until you introduce this.
I absolutely love swype and never really understood why so many people dislike it with a passion. But thanks to your post hopefully more people will learn the joys of swyping. Because that tip indicator is one huge pain in the butt.
It's all but removed in the beta... I have another thread for how to get/use the beta... it's a lot better than stock in my opinion.
Can someone give me their swype library from system/lib/libswype.so
Im having trouble with swype.
Could you tell.me how to delete swype. I can't unistall it. Do I have to use root explore to delete it

Now if only swype let you customize the length of the keypress necessary to shift up.
^ do you mean the time it takes when LP'ing to get a number for example? Or to make a letter Capital (which is just swiping up past the KB)?

Got an email this morning and just now getting to read it... for being invited to the Swype beta program. Looking forward to using it once again it really is a nice app.
I'd like to share it with you guys in the xda community, is there anything I need to do besides attach the apk file? If there is please tell me so I can make it work to share this. Figured I should try and help out since xda has done so much for me

Currently using the new swype keyboard and I love it, it looks like they added a mic button so we don't have to. Decent layout and size of letters on the keyboard. So far all is good looking forward to sharing this.

We're currently not allowed to distribute Swype on XDA. Its considered warez, and XDA doesn't want to get in trouble for having warez on its site.

Saw my daughter user it on her Droid. Doesn't seem like something that would come easy to this old man.
lame is there a way I can put it up somewhere else to share or is that still bad. I noticed that there is an installer and the actual app as two seperate apk files maybe I can find a way to get the one for just the keyboard

In order to use it you have to authenticate. I am not sure posting an apk will work. I could be wrong.
Sent from my ADR6300 using XDA App
I understand you are trying to be a nice person but there are a couple problems with your statement:
1) Yes like spatton has mentioned, because of users like you, the folk over at swype had to implement a security check in order to prevent leaked .apk's and they have to cracked before you can use it on another device.
2) You just got an invitiation to a private beta program, and most likely agreed to terms stating that you would not share the application. If I were somebody at swype, I'd probably revoke your invitation.
3) XDA rules forbid posting any swype .apk's as of right now, because it would be considered pirated.

I'm sure you could probably host it on like 4shared or something. I'm not sure if the apk for the keyboard will work for other phones, cause I'm not sure if its registered to a unique device or not.

leave the home screen clean and with a nice wallpaper
put icons, shortcuts and widgets on the other screens
I removed all apps from the homescreen, but I want to make it look nice, I'm sure some widgets will do this...
Punch her in the eyes and say "no, you're ugly".... Lol. Or you could just search the main " post your home screen" thread. It has alot of great ideas & links within the thread. Use only widgets that are needed & to clean up maybe use folders?

Hey xriderx66. Is the font Normal size? And if you dont mind me asking are you using any theme on Atriarc?
Well, it does look like it doesn't it?
It's multi-touch which i love.
The dictionary is already filled with modern-used words or abbreviations.
It just feels softer when typing and its fast.
I use either this or swype starting today.

Yes the font size is normal. and nope, no themes on my Atriarc.
