Swye PROBLEM!!

I downloaded swype and used it and it was great. And the next day I did a soft reset after downloading something and now I only have the default keyboard and its lame. I have gone into all settings-->personal-->input and switched input method to swype but once i press ok it swtiches it automatically back to touch input. can anyone help? maybe help me tottaly disable touch input or find a solution why i cant use swype.
keyboard symbol?
Sorry if this sounds dumb, but do you get keyboard symbol at bottom of screen, with arrow to the rightside of it? if so, touch on arrow, select swype. Sorry if you have already done this.Mine changes back sometimes.

Swype - Temp disable swyping?

Just wondering if there is a quick way to disable the swyping on the swype keyboard.
Love Swype but sometimes a std keyboard would be easier and I find I am changing back to the HTC keyboard for the odd message and then back again.
What swype needs is a quick way to turnoff the swype funtion and go Dumb mode.
Problem is if I type to quickly it starts picking it up as swypes
Thanks
Check settings, menu, all settings, personal, input.
Tought you could change it over there.
Thanks for the response however not really worried about switching between swype and another keyboard. More hoping there is a quick way to keep swype but make it faster as a normal keypad.
Some of my messages (Txt or Email) Swype is a bit of a hinderance. Trying to touch (tap tap) is painfully slow and so is switching between keyboards. (Bottom center. Tap slightly to the right will prompt for type of keyboard).
Eg entering in information and funny names I would like to tap one of the sype buttons and swype function is temporaily disabled. I then type what I need to (tap tap tap) then tap the key again and the swype function is reenbled and I carry on (swype swiggle swishe)
I feel your pain. Unfortunately, there isn't an option in Swype to turn of the "swyping" as you eloquently put it.
Hope they come out with a newer build that could do that and one where you can access the EDITING options with just one button press.
i simply press the small arrow next to the keyboard icon on the bottom of screen , and toggle to the normal, htc regular keyboard
edit: sorry, overlooked the op's main concern, please ignore

Hey, quick tip
you can quickly access the Editing options by swyping from the 'swype key' to the 'SYM key'

[Q] HTC 'Phone Pad' Keyboard

Hello
The QWERTY keyboard has a 'minimise' button to make the keyboard dissappear. The 'Phone Pad' does not... anyone know why, and whether there's any way of acheiving the same result...?
Thanks
When I used to use the HTC_IME mod keyboard on my hero, it didn't have the button to get rid of the keyboard either, but you could use the back key to get rid of it. Maybe this will work?
I have it on my phone ?
Where is it you don`t have it ?
I've used 3 different types of keyboards and finally settled on SlideIT and holding the "Menu" button usually minimizes the keyboard.
Press the back arrow key to minimise the phone keypad
Spock with the 'back' button is that, in some apps (such as Android Market), it takes you back to the previous page rather than just minimizing the keyboard. A small but annoying fault...
I like the Phone Keypad but it doesn't always offer T9. I don't understand why it's available in Messaging but not in the browser. I don't get it.

[Q] wrong mapping dock keys

If I use the android default on screen keyboard instead of the Asus keyboard I get incorrect key mappings with the dock keyboard. It appears to use the USA layout where the @ key is above the number 2 instead of over on the rightas it should be in the uk keyboard layout
I guess this is related to the warning message when connecting the dock if you don't use the Asus keyboard about it nit behaving correctly
Is there a way to use the android keyboard and then still have the dock keyboard work correctly withuhaving it change back to the Asus on screen keyboard?
not that I know of. I also have issue with the ASUS default kb, I have to switch back and forth to use hard key mapping in console emulators. I haven't found a solution yet either.
There's a thread about changing the hardware mapping to the ASUS keyboard's for other keyboards. Search around.

I've tried using Tasker but it just prompts a pop up which is worse than default behaviour (where there is an unobtrusive icon in the notification area)
Any other ideas??
