[Q] DOuble capitals using swype - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have a problem since upgrading to froyo. Now swype will put a double capital in if I'm spelling a word out manually. THis is what happens. And AGain. It's really annoying and didn't happen with 2.1. I did a factory reset after the upgrade. Running JPO on XEU.
Any solutions or suggestions?
Thanks!

Also found that since updating to 2.2 froyo, download mode fix, voodoo lag fix. That and also experienced the faulty pull down menu bar once aswell.

Mine does this too and I'm running the same firmware.
The only solution I have found is to wait like half a second before typing the next letter.
I also get double capitalisations on the next word like - "Hello How are you?" if I type the word how too soon after hello.
Its ****ing strange.

Sorry to double post but was wondering whether there is a way to reset the swype saved words? If not how and where can I update swype and whats the latest version?
Thanks

I'd also like to know how to reset all the custom words in swype. One by one with the swype key is rubbish.
I also get the Double Capital word when manually spelling. And sometimes the cApital is in the wrong place.
All since upgrading to 2.2. I'm really happy with everything else but I'd become used to swype and now it's broken

Hi, I also get the double capitals, either in the same word, or on the second word. It's really annoying. Any tips?

I'm not sure if you want to go down this route but I had the same problem and since installing darkys gingerbread look rom my swype has worked fine and my phone has no lag at all. It's made me 100% happy with my phone (haven't tried gps on the move yet but gets a fix quick).

Yeah, that worked for me too. Now on Darky's ROM 9.5 and absolutely no problems.

[Q]Swype

Has anyone got Swype working? I tried to download the apk for the ascend but it doesn't work, it installs and I can change the input to Swype but when I try to type it does not work. I will try different models and see if I can get it to work.

Figured I would post this here after helping someone on the Zclusive FB page asking about Swype. For those of you who like Swype, but cannot get the beta to work anymore with the ZIO (i had the beta at one point, updated and it wouldn't let me download)
I believe the Zio was promised Swype with 2.2 but it never happened. And sorry ahead of time if it's against some kind of ToS to post link to Apps that aren't necessarily free or paid, but in beta

Downloaded Swype from the link above. Works like a charm on my zio, I am using swype to send this message. I will report any bugs here.

Dude thanks. I have been looking for swype everywhere. It's a little slow but not too annoying. It's faster on my sisters Evo but maybe it's a hardware issue. Or maybe I just have a slow phone.
You can chose to change the way Swype responds in the options

Im an Ultra Keyboard Fanboy, sadly..
Ultra keyboard has swype capabilities (called tracing), that is just as good as swypes, but ultra kbd is so much more customizable than swype. More responsive as well imo.
Give it a shot.
Ya I'll check it out, I'm just getting used to using swype without error, I don't like how I have to choose my words to make it work.

have been wanting to try swype...but using slideIt and have had zero probs with it...tried a bunch and settled down with it ..the trace works awesome.
Yeah all that is customizable through ultra kbd settings. You trace, then hit space and it will choose the default word. It'll still give you options, but in a horizontal menu, instead of vertical.
Word prediction is stellar as well

Anyone else have any issues with Swype saying that the trial has expired? I have tried to uninstall and reinstall.

Swype stopped working? something i missed?

When i try to use swype, i get the line accross the keyboard as i'm trying to type and but just displays a blue box around the whole keyboard. Is there a way to fix this?
Which rom are you running? Check that thread to see if there is a fix.
You missed about a dozen threads about the Swype trial ending and ways to fix it that could be found by doing a search.

[Q] Swype on gingerbread JVO

Since updating my XEU handset to gingerbread, the Swype keyboard has gained a voice button next to the full stop. Keep hitting this and it's annoying. Likewise a region button next to the SYM. How can I get rid of these again?

For the first button I mean the voicy button. I think if you disable the voice to text service it wont do anything anymore. The service is voice search. Test it with tit backup freeze. The other button no idea .Maybe get some theme ?
Hm. I've looked all around the voice settings, and I can't find anything to get rid of the microphone button. Nor the language button either. Perhaps I'll get used to it, but it's cramped down there on the bottom row.

Now I think you dont have root Anyway if you do read further.
I guess you didnt understand me there. So do this. Install titanium backup (its an app on the market) Then run the app. In the app search for voice search, click on it in and choose freeze and reboot. Then try to click the mic in swype.
Ah. I had root, and TiBu, but I haven't re-rooted since gingerbread. It's more complicated than super one click!
So really, there's no way to remove the buttons then? Only make them not respond. I don't like the small space key now.
Guess I'll have to get used to it

Well I could swear that in some keyboards without the voice to text service that button vanished . Not sure which version of rom or what keyboard it was. But ask just some themer to help you with it. or someone might respond with proper advice

Swype needed for Captivate

Swype worked for my Captivate until I downgraded from gingerbread to froyo. Then, after a short period of time, Swype quit functioning with a message about my "free trial" ending... Related to froyo? I'd like Swype back, anyone seen this problem?
Thank you
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897 using XDA App
One way to fix this is to get the latest swype beta directly from swype
http://beta.swype.com/
Another way is to find one of the swype.apk floating around xda that is permanent or does not have a trial period to worry about.

Just download cognition 5.3 and extract the swype.apk from system/app and place it there on root of phone and then install.

Swype problem on ICS

I recently updated to the Germany ICS 4.0.4 XXLRG and all I can say for Swype is that it's completely horrible and broken. It used to work flawlessly on XXLQ2 and XXLQ3 4.0.3.
As usual, I flashed my Note over Odin, did a factory reset just to make sure it works without bugs. Now, from time to time, after unlocking the screen and typing in some app, it just deletes evetything I type next after I complete the word and start swiping the next one until i exit the app and enter again. Also, it keeps capitalizing every single word I type, and if it happens to be the word I end the sentence with, it leaves it all in caps. I made sure I turned off all the autocomplete nonsense, the corrections etc, the only thing enabled are suggestions and auto spacing, like I had on 4.0.3. Any ideas? It's utterly annoying

Try the Swype beta. It's pretty good. You can get it from their website
