where do you get google voice search? I've looked for it in the market and can't find it. Is voice recognition a feature only available in later versions of android?
It is a feature available for 1.6. SE decided not to add it to the OS.
Most rooted Android 1.6 Roms have that. It was quite useful when I had my rooted HTC Magic. Just press the voice icon at the search widget and you could do a Google search without using the keyboard. Too bad SE decided not to carry that on the X10.

bummer. I knew what I was getting into and I still love the X10, but I'm definitely looking forward to a root. hopefully someone can pull it off, and soon
I have the voice search app on my x10....and i can also use the speech to text mic button on the htc keyboard.
Might depend on where you got the phone. Had 2 x10i only the first one had voice recognition. I'm using a x10a now with no voice.
hi,
i have searched xda and google to no avail, is there a way of moving through text ( in a SMS) one character at a time as you would if you had navigation/direction buttons?
thanks
If you buy Smart Keyboard Pro, it allows you to enable direction keys to do just that.

The latest HTC keyboard allows you to enable the volume controls as a cursor. It is also free!
jep, just use the htc keyboard.
there you have directional pad's to move the curserkey's
thanks,
I currently use HTC_ime (it's an older version), going to update to version 25 (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=5475283), hopefully this will do the trick

The Japanese keyboard already on the phone has arrows on the English alphabet keyboard, for the weak of heart when it comes to installing things.
When the swype keyboard is first brought up after going into the messaging application, it starts normal with the QWERTY keyboard up, but as soon as I start swypeing it switches to the numbers and I have to manually switch back, this is getting quite annoying, so if anyone knows why this keeps occurring I would greatly appreciate the assistance.
Thank you,
Do you have the newest swype version (2.15.56.14870.t100) such as the one that came in jt1134's super clean rom .9? This seems to be a common occurence. I too share the frustration
SCH-I500 - DJ05/SuperClean .8/Nemesis OTB 1200lv/Voodoo5/Darkstar
I am using the newest version of swype that I installed myself. I have not had any of these problems. If you are able to I would try installing that version. There are instructions somewhere if you search for them. I am not running any custom roms or kernels.
if you close swype while the numbers are up it will revert back to numbers when you open again. I noticed this too and tested my theory and was true, it reopens to what it was closed on, so like on passwords if it's like pass12 and you hit submit or close the keyboard without switching back it will go back to the number one first

I completely removed Swype and installed the latest Swype beta through Swype Installer and I have the same issue. Very frustrating.

This is the reason I've been having problems it seems, I never realized how often I left the keyboard in the symbols part after I put smiley faces or exclamations.
yea I got real annoyed by it to lol, but I just deal with it

lol. I've seen this on the new swype. Also my keyboard randomly switches to all caps sometimes. Weird.

To be fair, Swype's website explicitly says, when you download the beta installer, "Do not install on phones that came with Swype pre-installed."
So while I personally ignored their instructions and am running the latest version without any problems, perhaps there's a legitimate compatibility reason they said that.

how did you get it to install on the fascinate. } Edit: <blah blah blah SNIP>
Nevermind...
/system/lib and renamed libSwypeCore.so was keeping me from installing the swype beta.
Didnt notice it first time I tried
If this has been posted before please delete, but I believe I have solved my issue with the physical keyboard missing keys. I turned off all the software keyboards and swype it seems to have done the trick.
Problem is I have to change it everytime I switch batteries. Is there a way to do thi?

Yes, I've read that swype (enabled) is most likely the culprit.

Bingo, it can be annoying at times. When typing long emails and texts, be sure to go back and proofread what you just typed (good practice anyway). Turning off swype did seem to help a bit.

would make it a software issue then..not hardware =D good to know
I was able to type several paragraphs with all the soft keyboards except for Swype disabled, and I don't have the missing key issue anymore. I simply disabled the Samsung and Android keyboards. I use Swype way too much to disable it.

I use keyboard manager to help with this...
Install keyboard manager along with touchpal from market free (completely).
I have Swype enable and have it set as my portrait keyboard
Then when I switch to landscape keyboard manager services changes my kb to touchpal in a fraction of a second without any interaction.
What awesome about touch pal is that it offers some of the best spelling correction word prediction with our hardware keyboards. Takes a while to get used to but by far is the best solution for me as not only does it fix the random keydrops but it also spell checks and suggests words on the fly.
I was using the Windows Mobile Version for a long time before changing to android, but absolutely love Swype for portrait one handed.
In a previous post I made I pointed out that the lag I found to be software and not hardware... if you long press on many letters you will get a popup instead of repeat keys these seem to be the cause of the drops, after using touchpal, if you long press a letter it quickly repeats.

I unchecked the samsung and android keypad and tested it out. Updated twitter and FB without a hitch, no dropped characters! Very cool, and thanks for the tip. That's been driving me (and my wife) crazy!

It seems everytime I remove the battery and reinstall it that swype and the other keyboards are re-enabled. Is there anyway to keep them turned off?

I believe they need to be removed using sdx stock app removal.
Touchpal (chinese origin) privileges:
-full internet access

Umm. I think I'll pass. I don't need the chinese keyboard reading my contacts, record audio, and send it back to the chinese developers...

Internet access to check for updates, record audio is for voice to text and contacts im not sure about but i think its for autocomplete to add to the dictionary. Check out Swype permissions same read contact data is there...
Trust me I have been using CooTek products for years they are a reputable company... Chinese or not.
PS you could try with another keyboard but I think the key is touchpal, all i can say is if the keyboard your using gets rid of the OS default popup that happens when you long press on a key it should work. I wish there was a dev that could just figure out how to disable this all together as it happens when there are no soft keyboards active,,, I am sure this is the cause to our missed keys try ee or oo in words 7/10 times it will miss if you are fast this is because its trying to determine the length of time the key was pressed to display the box of options.
I can't get keyboard manager to recognize touchpal as an option...any ideas?
NM, have to play with the actual system settings first
I'm trying to install Swype beta on my nexus 4, but after I download and installer the installer it hangs after I log in. The new gesture keyboard is nice but I miss some of the features in Swype. Is the N4 not supported? Has anyone else had better luck?
Same for me...

Does swype offer the predictive text as you're swyping like the stock keyboard? The last version I've tried of swype didn't.
I've installed without any problems. It was one of the first things I installed on the phone

It works if you have a titanium backup to restore, but its not working at the moment via the download/swype installer option. I think they are aware of the problem and working on it (from the Swype forums)
Missing it but the stock android one is doing an OK job in the meantime...
I installed swype beta just fine.
I get to the screen where it lets me choose a version to download but never loads the choices.
Try flex T9 instead. Installed no problem.
For the people who were able to install swype, is swype keeping your custom words? I'm noticing that I'm unable to add custom words to the personal dictionary. I'm not sure if it's a bug with the latest swype or it's just incompatible with the nexus 4.

Well it worked... but it's version 1.0.3.5809. Isn't that a pretty old version? Don't see some of the Swype connect options that are available in the latest beta.
It's one version old and still works with theme chooser. The new version has its own theme chooser thingy.
If someone with the newest version would go in to data/apps and find the com.nuance.swype.input-1.apk and upload it that would be great too.

@eniris - Thanks a lot!
I'm always wary of files people I don't know post, so scanned it with both ESET on my laptop and Lookout on my Nexus 4 to be sure. It's clean, and it works perfectly - it's version 1.3.1.9274.
Swype is perfect as a keyboard, but the new Android keyboard's speech recognition is better (it's real-time vs waiting for the Swype one to process, and it's nice that you can pause and easily record more). Now I only wish there was a quicker way to swap between the Swype keyboard and Google Voice Typing. When you're in an input field, you have to pull down the top menu, tap "Choose input method", and then tap "Google voice typing." It's way more cumbersome that just hitting the little icon, but doable. Maybe I'll just get used to the Swype one.
Anyway - thanks again eniris!
