[Q] Problem with Swype on 2X - LG Optimus 2x

Hi guys,
I'm using Swype on my 2X and absolutley love it, but I keep having a problem with it.
When I tap in the text box to type, I will swype the word but it won't work.... I can tap the letters individually and they will type out but the swyping action won't work at all... I just get a blue outline around the keyboard very briefly but no words / letters appear.
Anyone else having this problem?
Going to "language and keyboard" and deactivating Swype and then reactivating seems to fix the problem.. but very annoying if you have to keep on doing it.
Thanks in advance for any help.

Apologies, please ignore... just found the answer on the Swype site:

You might want to get your facts straight before you go around accusing people of things you absolute idiot.
Swype Beta is FREE!!!!
And the reason for the problem I was experiencing was a legitimate one if you visit the link I posted...
What a to$$er.
(Sorry mods for this post, but as you can probably tell I am annoyed at being wrongly accused of piracy).
I'm looking forward to your apology jangomango.....

Thanks this has helped me also as I was having the same problem - although Swype's solution is more of a workaround as its still annoying enough for me to use the normal keyboard instead.
I think JamgoMango must have just skimmed through the first sentence where it talks about licensing mate! Slight overreaction there me thinks!

I know what you mean mate, is very annoying having to switch keyboards and then switch back again... swype is so good IMHO though that its worth the effort until properly fixed.
I don't think I have over reacted though, not considering I have been wrongly accused of software piracy... he should get his facts straight before he starts accusing people. Lessons need to be learned.

Nope, jokes are funny....
You're just backtracking big time now....
WTF is a wrist jockey? Is that another joke or another unfounded accusation?
I'm guessing you have nothing sensible to add to the thread?

I love swype and the keyboard but it's kind of annoying that it stops working if you loose reception. Is this whole licensing/re-authentication deal of the swype app a beta-only thing of willl the final version also have to be "online" all the time?

I'm on the Swype beta list, and i have to re-license swype after every reboot.
Somewhat annoying...

If you have to re-licence it then you're doing something wrong.
You just have to go to the settings, activate the lg keyboard and then back to the swype.

If you had read the posting gk141054 linked to, you would know that by switching the swype keyboard off/on you are in fact making the app re-license/re-authenticate itself.

Text messages are scrolled all the way to the bottom when opened! Help!

All of a sudden, whenever I open a text message, the phone automatically scrolls all the way down to the bottom of the page where there is no text. It still works, but it's pretty annoying to have to scroll back up to the top of the message everytime. I don't know what I changed, but I did just install Tweak. Could that have anything to do with it? I didn't tweak any SMS options. Any insight?
If you are using 'Kaiser Tweaks' then un-select D-Pad scroll.
that should fix it..

Awe that sucks! I liked having that feature for browsing IE. But it's more annoying scrolling to the bottom. Guess you can't have it all. Thanks!
Tell you the truth I did a quick search on "scrolled text message" and came up with that solution... maybe there's another solution to keep it active when using IE..
Might be worth a more detailed search...
Hope it helps..

Sorry that it interferes with your IE scrolling, baby boy. Maybe next time you will search and read the other 20 threads about the d pad issues or whatever other issues you may have.
Yes, this is spoon feeding, baby rocking, nipple nurturing country.

Facebook 1.1

I have running the Facebook 1.1 app that is on the droid, on my motorola cliq, because someone uploaded it. It is only showing 1.0 in the market right now, anyway is there anyway anyone can fix the notifications tab, so we can reply to our notifications with-in the app itself, instead of having to use the browser? I hate going to the browser just to respond to a notification such as someone commenting on my status, etc....or I have to search for it, in the app just to respond, iphone gets all the attention! If you can fix this, and upload it again, I would appreciate it.
Wowzers!

I did the above to my facebook.apk and it enabled viewing notifications as it should have. I'm really not sure why whoever coded that in the text file left it at "0", but with it set to "1", all my notifications actually work and stuff.

Dude you have a Moto Cliq use THE HAPPENINGS APK it allows you to respond to that stuff and comment on other status why in the world would you need the droid facebook.apk anyways on the cliq it sounds like your not using your cliq the way it was intended
I love the sarcasm, no really I do.
To the poster of this thread,
Please take the time to learn how an application is developed, what source code is, what an .apk file is, and then decide if this "request" you made is even remotely feasible. I'm usually not one to flame another but my goodness, the noobness you exert is almost blinding.
Duplicate post.

Dear GV2004, we know you're new and all, and that we should be nice to you, but here's what you have to do: use the HORRIBLE search engine that comes with this forum, spend hours going thru unrelated info, THEN come back here and ask your questions. Only then will you get what you seek, and only if you grovel. That way we feel better in our smugness. Maybe then you can get us off of our 36 hour marathon of World of Warcraft to help you.

You mean I have to search for more than one word at a time? That's too difficult. I'll just put in the word facebook, cry for a few minutes when I see the results then I'll post in the development section? Is that cool?
I love it when people cry about how bad the search engine is and then in less than 30 seconds I searach for and link them the thread that tells them how to fix the problem they have.

help with Swype...

I truly love Swype on my Hero but yesterday completely unexpected I got a popup that stated "Your trial period has ended. Please upgrade your copy of Swype." How can I do this!? I've searched everywhere but I have no idea what I am looking for. Thanks.
there is a new version that works fine in this thread.http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=681872
thanks for that, it was a life saver lol.
Themes and Apps?
Swype is an App?
Just asking.
Thanks,

There's another thread here somewhere and it has the updated one.
Almost all the older ones are now showing a popup and disabling themselves.
But another version is posted and it works fine on 2.1
Thanks,

Thanks for more of your helpful input fixxxer... wtf? This is a thread about the fact that those of us who do like and use Swype every day are s.o.l. atm and are looking for a solution. Thank you for letting us know you don't like swype and use the htcime kb instead.
I'm using the one from THIS POST, so far so good.
If I'm not mistaken I think thats an older copy. Even though it's working I'd love to get a hold of a newer version, or heck I'd love for the people who made Swype to let be BUY it from them. I would pay at least $5 for Swype.
This is what I got AFTER the other one started with the "end of trial" BS.
Thanks,
Bubba.
P.S. Havn't been watching version numbers, but this one works.

I vouch. I installed this one in my new mod. Ive had this version for testing ever since it was released. I have a few copies, registered to me(I themed the new one)it works perfectly and does NOT expire. Check out the black glass version of the one that expires and swap the keyboards folder inside if you want a black one that does not expire. Or just color all the pngs to YOUR liking. Just an easy way to get a black swype that doesnt expire. OR YOU CAN JUST GO HERE...​

Swype arrows trick that makes me feel like a noob again!

Arrow keys on swype? and i just find out now????
yeah i found that week one of owning the phone.
without the text selection methods in the later updates and a lack of laser mouse it really needed it. it hasnt been talked about since the updates that gave that little pointer for the cursor
Thank you! Accessed this once but could never figure out how I did it. Now if only there was an easier way to access the hyphen...
So that's how ya do it! Lol. I love swype even more now. Lol.

Agreed, with the new cursor functions I don't really see the need for it. Though it is nice to know it's there, something else to toy with.
Awesome, thanks for the tip! So much more convenient than trying to drag the cursor arrow around

I have never seen the iphone style rotation animation done on any android phone running any kind of system. It is something that has to be built into the operating system, and it just is not built into android.
So, to answer your question very clearly - no, you cannot get the iphone rotation animation on android.
maybe you should see video about samsung galaxy Tab8.9 i'v seen this rotation and it's have been done in the system called Android in galaxy S II in the gallery
check out the videos on you tube and then you will see
and i appreciate your replying !
