Might seem like a dumb question but I can't seem to enable swype on password lock? it's so much easier and allows me to easily unlock my phone with an essentially endless pattern gesture, I had it working on my thunderbolt but I was using a self installed early version of swype because the tbolt doesn't come with swype, is there anyway to enable this? Thanks for any help and I know we can't post swype apk's but I'm hoping its an easy fix...

Look up how to remove preinstalled swype, then download the beta and install

Thanks, and yeah I figured that was the case I just wanted to use the preinstalled 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

You can always try slide it keyboard from the market
For example, I can't locate SPB Shell 3D on the market. If I go to this app from dev site by direct link I don't see Install button. I have purchased this app some time back even. Does somebody knows it is true? If yes then it is ridiculous. How dare they are to prevent me from using what I have paid for.
I know a lot of apps wont show if they have not updated to 2.3.4. Most are ok to use if you have 2.3.3

EA Games' Tetris works. However, the Need for Speed Shift app that I purchased doesn't work on my phone. I noticed that there is another Need for Speed app in the market that costs 10 USD.

I know apps can be filtered by OS version. The company I work for has an app that is only compatible on phones 2.1 or newer. Market will not even display the app on sub 2.1 devices or on 3.0 since its a Tablet OS. I have read, in the cases of tethering apps, that cell carriers can filter apps and Verizon has done so. I do not know whether Motorola does. I imagine they can, but why they would, I am not sure. I know there are Device specific apps (Droidlight) that are from Motorola that are visible and downloadable on other devices, they just do not work.
I have stopped to understand things. The SPB Shell 3D release history says
Version 1.2.1 (Aug 04, 2011):
Stability improvements
Fix Gallery for Motorola Atrix (2.3.4)
Other fixes
So it is targeted for 2.3.4. On my son's Atrix 2.3.4 I can see this app in the market. But not on my Droid 3. Mystery.
They can filter by OS version and device, so it may be supported on the Atrix but not the D3.

Exactly. That's why you won't find Wireless Tether on the Market haahah

The new android market has got an update. It now includes an option to +1 apps and the ability to pin lock for safer purchasing. You need to enter that pin everytime you make a purchase.
Cool,right?
Sent from my Milestone using XDA App
I downloaded the APK yesterday, and I'm a big fan of the PIN-lock. I feel better knowing that nobody could purchase a bunch of apps in the event that I lost my phone somewhere.
Does anyone have an update package of the new version? Can't install the apk.
Sent from my Milestone using XDA Premium App
Yeah well, why not just use a PIN on your lockscreen? Otherwise someone could also use your phone to call up phone-xxx lines for 3.99/min (;
Anybody please post that link.
thanks.

Doesn't have all of the settings that Swiftkey X does Like long-press duration (which is one of the best parts of the app) and swipe distance. Looks and works great, but not being able to edit those few things is really frustrating.
