I just installed it too...seems Much better than my last version...which strangley expired today..i wonder if that's because the new beta just came out at the same time? Anyway, I'm happy and its working great..

Thanks for the heads up. I've been using the pirated 2.15, but it will be nice to be using an official release for once so I'll know when the newest release is out.

I signed up for the site to receive the beta, but I still have not gotten the email to download it. I've also tried resending the link and their server never sends out an email to me. Niiiccee....

I signed up but I am unable to download the installer, keep getting download unsuccessful. Anyone able to get it to install successfully?

This is gonna sound so obvious, and not to insult your intelligence, but have you looked in your spam folder?

I was able to download it successfully on two devices, no problem.

now that I actually try to get swype the official way its not letting me. Keeps saying "Sorry! Thus us not an android device." Anyone else getting this on cm6?

I had that problem at first but I realized I had my user agent set to desktop on my browser; had to set to Android.

that was it! thanks! funny how the little things get overlooked

will this automatically work on the aria?

Is there any way to get the apk from this newest release? I signed up for the beta and as soon as I did, I got a POP up saying my current version of swype had expired. And I can't do it the legit way since ATT blocks installs that are separate from the market. HELP!

Difficult in what way? I think its probably the easiest soft keyboard to use. I guess if you're not used to a qwerty keyboard then it does take some time to get used to where the keys are as swyping with efficiency does require you to have the letters locations committed to memory.

Exactly, it's hard to see as you're "swype-ing". I view this as just a novelty . After a little while it gets fun lol.

That's probably the reason people view it as a novelty. It becomes second nature after a while. I've gotten to the point now where I don't even have to look for individual letters on the keyboard as I'm swyping. I just need to view the keyboard as a whole and its just burned into my memory where I need to swype to get the letters. it just takes a little time, but once your get it down its by far the fastest way to type without having an actual physical keyboard.

When in the browser: menu > more > settings > user agent > set to Android
At least, this is how it is in the browser for CyanogenMod..

Editing stock keyboard dictionary

As the topic suggests I want to know how to take words OUT of the dictionary. I'm sick of the word "niggardly" coming up. It auto corrects to that all the time. Also when I type "Guy" it always capitalizes the G. Anyone got any ideas on how to do this?
Sent from my HERO200 using xda premium

Depending on what ROM ur on....
Go to settings/ language & keyboard / user dictionary
I hate the guy going to Guy also but its a name so its capitalized. Next time type it, tap on the word and it should give the option "Tap to add"
Good luck

I'm on kushdeck. Sorry should have clarified that. I know I can add words the way you suggested but there's no way to delete them? I know Guy is a name but seriously ...who the hell knows someone named Guy? His mother should be shot if you do. I don't know anyone who uses the word niggardly either. They should also be shot. Just saying. I'd love to delete both of those if possible. Thanks for the response btw!

voice type

Ok so I know I am being stupid but I cant seem to find the voice type button on my stock keyboard,
I have gone into the language and keyboard settings but cant seem to find a setting for gettingg voice type up and running
I have disabled some apps so wonder if that could be it but I can see nothing obvious that's disabled
I know some one will just say do a,b and then c and it will work and I will feel dumb ( but at least it will work)
thanks in advance

Should be a long press on the period key. Looking at mine right now...lol

Weird keyboard issue

Hey everyone, I'm hoping someone can shed any light on a weird issue that appears every now and then where the keyboard on my inc s seems to stop accepting words add I type in, despite the letters highlighting as I type. When thus happens I have to reboot to get it to work again. This its on all apps that have the keyboard ability. Weird and annoying as hell

Did you try a third party keyboard? Or however thats called

Any idea why the phone keypad input method insists on spaces?

What I mean is when I try to select individual letters with the phone keypad in XT9 mode, it always puts a space between every letter. Like I'm the 3rd, so I use III a lot, but when I hit i and select it from the bar above the keypad, then the next time I hit i there's automatically a space, and I can't seem to make it stop doing it.
Any ideas or suggestions?

Any ideas at all? ^^;

Turn off auto corrrect?

Oddly, I can't seem to find that setting.
Sent from my 831C using XDA Premium 4 mobile app

If you are using the stock keyboard, I just tried it in XT9 because for the life of me I can't figure out why anyone would still be using that keypad. And no spaces here. I hold down the GHI select I and do it 2 more times, no spaces.

I just can't figure it out. I think I had a problem like this with my M7, and I think someone helped me fix it, but I don't remember how. It really seems like there's settings that aren't being shown that should fix it.
Any chance there'd be a way to uncover more settings somehow?

Any more ideas? It's so annoying for this to be acting like this.

Sounds like when you choose the "i" in the upper bar, the phone thinks you're wanting it to just be an I and it automatically adds the space in preparation of the next word....what happens if you just type "iii"? It should realistically let you type that and then you can choose that combo to save in your phones dictionary. Hope that makes sense and helps you out...let me know
Sent from my HTC One_M8 using XDA Free mobile app

I have the III saved so it does just put it in without spaces. It's any other time I have to add any word that bothers me. It shouldn't force a space when I go to spell some things by c h o o s i n g individual letters from the top bar. I've never had any other version of sense do that before, and it really feels like I'm missing a layer of settings for text input somewhere. It's just bothersome that I wouldn't be able to turn something like that on and off.
I've tried turning on and off the other settings in that field, and it didn't stop the spaces from auto adding. I actually have to add a space then backspace between every letter I need to individually choose.
Driving me batty, it is. lol
Sent from my HTC M8 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app.

I just tried to recreate what you're describing, I see how the space thing comes into play when choosing individual letters now...then I turned off word prediction and then it stopped adding a space but it also got rid of the top row with words/letters your currently typing...may I ask why you'd be typing individual letters and choosing them instead of just typing the word til it's completed? That's the only area I'm still confused about.
Sent from my HTC One_M8 using XDA Free mobile app

Sometimes there's things I type that aren't in the dictionary or my phone doesn't want to type "on" or "go" or other two letter words sometimes for no reason, then I have to type them with individual letters. The things that aren't in the dictionary are things I don't typically use on a regular enough basis to add, or when I'm typing capcha codes and the like.
I think it bothers me more that I can't simply make it not do it without disabling something I frequently use. I could've swore that there was another layer of settings that was specifically for the XT9 keyboard.

Did you make sure English is the default language for the keyboard?...I had an issue where I would be typing and some common words kept getting switched to weird/foreign words, come to find out somehow my language got switched to Spanish I think it was. Just another idea...I'm running out of other ideas, sorry
Sent from my HTC One_M8 using XDA Free mobile app

It is on English. I did find I settling in Swype for auto spacing, but it didn't do anything for me either. ; ;
