Issues with Swype, Shapewriter, SlideIT

Hi,
I've been using Swype for some two weeks now, today starting having massive problems with it (huge lagging of the application affecting the entire system, rendering it nearly unusable). I don't know if this can attributed to this, but at one point today I did a battery stats wipe, after some time when I checked and it turned out that Swype had been using some 20% of my total battery usage. I uninstalled and reinstalled, but no improvement (still massive slowdown). Then I flashed from CM 5.0.5.2 to 5.0.5.3, still no improvement. Afterwards I tried installing ShapeWriter and SlideIt- both force close the instant I try to enter into their respective settings, or select them as the input method, Swype did not force close.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance
At least you can still use it. Mine has been disabled for a few days now and the old trick to use it doesn't work anymore (switching to another kb and then switching back to swype)
Actually the lag was so huge that it was unsuable. I uninstalled a couple apps I didn't use and that seemed to have worked - swype works normally again, but I seem to be experiencing another problem - newly installed apps from the market force close upon launch.
I think am experiencing similar problems also, when ever I try to bring up the keyboard to type it freezes up, so am using stock kb at the moment and all this started happening after I installed cyanogen 5.0.3.n1.

Did you import any word list into your user dictionary? I discovered that this why swype froze.
Also, slideIT and shapewriter force closed because because of user permissions.

Keyboard Issues

So I just rooted my nookcolor, got it working perfectly except for two keyboard related issues:
1. Whenever I select to use the gingerbread keyboard, no keyboard appears when I click on a data field.
2. When I click on 'Keyboard Settings' in the settings menu, it crashes to the home screen. I'm really just trying to turn off the setting that shows the pop-up when a key is pressed.
Does anyone have any ideas how to fix this?
Okay so I've solved the first issue by installing the gingerbread keyboard apk, however I'm still running into the second issue. I cannot for the life of me access my keyboard settings, whenever I clicked it the screen just crashes to the home screen. Does anyone have any suggestions? Is there an APK for settings that I could replace to get this working?
Keyboard
Look in the extras area for NookColor Tools
It's a screwed up place to put the keyboard selection but it's there!!
Thanks for the reply however I do not see an 'Extras' section. I've looked in both the Nookcolor Tools and the regular NookColor settings. I see the 'Keyboard' settings that crashes on me, however I don't see an 'Extras'. Could you point me in the right direction?
Nevermind, I'm an idiot. I know what you're talking about. However, that's not my issue. My issue is that when I click on 'Keyboard Settings' inside of settings, it crashes to home. I want to set my keys to not pop up when i type.
I also have a newly rooted NC and am having Keyboard issues too. (I just saw this thread as I was posting my own). I have the same issue of it crashing when you try and look at the settings. I also had the same issue with the GingerBread keyboard not showing up in a text field. I uninstalled it because I think it is broke.
I have been working with trying to get Japanese Keyboards to work with the nook so here is what you might want to do. It is ass backwards.. but its how I've been doing it to get keyboards to show up when I try to use them.
- Download a new/different gingerbread APK
- If you install it.. i bet you won't be able to select it from the keyboard list.. even after restart.
- Make sure in NookColorTools the check box is checkd for allowing 3rd party apps (if the bottom fails you might need to uncheck it and recheck it)
- Buy Root Explorer
- navigate in RE to the mysterious /data/app/ folder and find the apk that you
downloaded.. and copy it.
- navigate to /system/app/ and push the button at the top to allow writing of files.
paste the apk into this directory.
- hold in the file and it will prompt to install it.
- it might ask to replace existing ... say OK.
- Install successful.. now you will see the keyboard to choose from.
I was able to solve my gingerbread keyboard problem by just re-downloading the apk and pushing it to /system/apps/. after that i was able to select it and it's working just fine now.
however, my only problem now is accessing keyboard settings. it just always crashes to home screen. all i want to do is set the pop up on keyboard to off!
bump! anyone?!

[Q] Keyboard Error - ICS_4.0.3_MR1-RC4.2_I9000

This morning my 2 yo decided to have a play with my phone. He handed me the phone back and blurbed something like its was broken daddy.
When I had a look it had the below screen shot on the screen, "Unfortunately, (INSERT FOREIGN LANGUAGE HERE) Has Stopped."
The only thing I can see wrong is that the keyboard is now not working. Dialer still works but the keyboard in browser, sms, email........... have stopped working.
Every time I change screens this error pops up. I had a look in the apps menu and the keyboard is still showing as an installed app but its not showing in the running apps menu. I thought it normally did?
Anyone had this problem? Or can suggest a fix?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Tried with another keyboard ?
Thanks for that, I just found the problem.
My boy enable a k/board option (Chinese) that isn't an option. I can't disable in the k/board options but I can disable it in the programs.

[Q] Keyboard won't access Google Voice Typing (Captivating rom)

Hey guys,
So I've tried everything I can think of, but my google voice typing icon does nothing when I touch it. If I hold it down, it still brings up settings, but just stays inactive when I touch it. I was able to use it after I first flashed the captivating rom, in fact I mistakenly made it my default keyboard somehow.... and once I figured out how to turn it off of default (reset the phone to apply settings) for some reason it stopped working. Not sure if there's any more options short of backing up and re-flashing.
I'm still using the same captivating rom, with unofficial semaphore kernel.
Any suggestions would be much appreciated!
Which version of the ROM are you running? I'm currently running X6 and I've had some other odd keyboard issues. Have you tried resetting the default keyboard? (I know you took off the other one from default but what did you set as the default after)
I have tried both xperia keyboard and the android keyboard as default. Neither work
X6 here too
I'll try to download the google voice app later when I get home from work. If any one else has had any keyboard issues your input would also be appreciated .
Yeah I downloaded Google voice a couple hours ago, hoping it could fix it. Are they actually related though?
It's odd because it's only the keyboard icon that won't access google voice typing... I can do voice search etc.
Odd, I'll try this as well once I get home. Just to note, I DID NOT flash X6 from a clean install. I "dirty" flashed it over X5. Not sure if you did as well (It wouldn't come as a surprise if this was the cause of some of these issues, if you did this as well).
Actually I did flash from stock.

X7 is posted now and I've heard it fixes some of the keyboard issues. Hope it helps.

swiftkey and samsung keyboard issue

i love to use use swiftkey. But on galaxy s6, even after I choose swiftkey as default keyboard, samsung keyboard turns itself into default keyboard after a while (anywhere from few minutes to hours...). it is so annoying to select manually swiftkey all the time. Any way around this issue?
gurus , any idea ?
if nothing else you could probably use tasker to automatically set swiftkey as your default keyboard every X minutes/hours and/or when you use X programs.
OR you might be able to make it notify you via popup/alarm when samsung keyboard becomes default in order to try and pinpoint the cause
It'd be a little more advanced than anything I've done with tasker so I can't give you step by step instructions on the setup you'd need to create, but a quick google yielded these instructions, you could tweak it to your needs:
http://code.rawlinson.us/2012/10/android-change-keyboard-based-on-app.html
it's not a real fix, but a temporary workaround is better than nothing. I'm currently using tasker to workaround an issue I have with MMS not sending when connected to wifi. (Shuts wifi off for 10 seconds when mms comes in)
Questions:
-Have you attempted using another 3rd party keyboard to see if it does it to all keyboards or just swype? I use "Jelly Bean Keyboard" (downloadable from google play) and I can say once or twice its gone back to samsung keyboard, but i THINK that was due to me tinkering and accidentally resetting defaults.
-though more than likely useless, have you tried wiping your cash? shut phone off then hold power + home + volume up (or is it down?) and select wipe cash then restart phone
-finally although I don't recommend this until all other options are exhausted, it's worth asking just to know what you've tried, have you done a factory reset yet?
i've downloaded swiftkey and set it as default in my S6 just to try and help, I'll use it for a day or two and see if it resets on me and report back
Disable or freeze the Samsung keyboard

From what I know you can't disable Samsung keyboard, at least not without root
Edit: nevermind, went into input method in settings and yes theres a disable option for Samsung keyboard.
Ive been using swiftkey since yesterdays post, so far no issue, its stayed as the selected option
finally, got it working. I have been trying to disable samsung keyboard from settings, but it will enable itself everytime. this time, i have also disabled google voice typing option, and now Swiftkey stays as default. I dont know what is the co-relation between the two, but it works. Thanks all of you for various suggestions.

I keep google voice typing enabled for occasional use while driving if I need to respond to a txt asap, along with an alternate (jellybean) keyboard as primary, it's never caused an issue for me before
Day 2 into using swiftkey keyboard (with google voice typing enabled) without any disabling/resetting to default samsung keyboard problems
On a side note, if I could remove the word suggestion bar I'd probably keep swiftkey now, got a theme i like on it and learning to enjoy it, though I dont use the swype function at all
