At a guess, it looks like you haven't installed any resource files. And you might be using an old version of apktool.

My money is on old version .
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ticklefish:
My money is on somebody taking a shortcut when doing some modding on this apk.

It's complaining that there are duplicate png's in the apk. Two of these will need to be deleted before you try and recompile. Which two depends on the images themselves. Have a look at them and delete the two you don't want.

There's also an error that says you're missing an image file called notification_header_bg and you're missing a dimension. Sort all this out and you should be able to recompile without any problems.

Hi everyone!

I am glad you guy love the nexus 10 browsing experience.

But I am hoping if you guy could help me out

cause I am not in the same boat as you guys who are enjoying the fast browsing experience.

I just received my Nexus 10.

My browsing experience to horrible.

I did not do any test but from the real world experience it is so slow comparing to my PC, ipad 3, ipad 4, iphone 5.

but It is faster my Transformer Prime and a little faster than my galaxy nexus. (note not trying to brag what I got, (the tablet is not all mine

and I just have a big family :D)

But I realize some weird things happen while browsing. It is the slowest when starting to enter to a site.

For example, when I typed Engadget.com, it takes forever to load but while in engadget and clicking their stories it is super fast.

Same to Mangahere.com.. but once clicking the link in their site, the browser is really fast. it is in between the ipad 3 and ipad 4 speed

I tried boat browser, dolphin, firefox and Chrome. The weirdest thing is the infamous slow Chrome, everybody was writing about,

is faster than all the browser I tried.

Now I am really thinking I am doing something really wrong. Hoping you guys could guide me to the party.

Thanks

Ok so I just bought a s3 on craigslist for 250 that was only used for a week or so. The phone is perfect in All aspects. The morning after I bought it I got an ota for JB. So I went ahead and installed. Now a couple of days later im Trying to root. I can get into download mode and connect to odin install the cwm tar and all goes good odin does its thing and says its has passed. Next I go to get into cwm recovery and it takes me to stock android recovery and wont let me install super user. Ive tried several other tar files hoping they we just bad downloads. My flash counter is at 7 now. Ive looked everywhere I can think of for a fix and find a lot of other things that point in a certain dirrection but I am unsure of which way to go. Any help would be great.

my solution was just to bite the bullet, and odin a full image that was already rooted. Takes a while, but solved my issues.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] shane1diamond:
Uncheck auto reboot in Odin before you flash the tar file, once it's done, unplug your device, and boot straight into cwm recovery, volume up home and power, flash su, reboot,done.

Which image did u flash.

I also tryed the other sugstion and no luck

Just wondering what some other Swype users think of the new gesture typing in 4.2?

I like that it matches the OS aesthetically, and the smoothness of the animation (as well as how it tapers as it fades)... but it doesn't quite stack up.

- I frequently find myself digging for characters I can long press on Swype.

- The gesture keyboard doesn't seem to recognize any gestures for double characters. My last name is Cooke and I I can't type it without getting Coke.

- Swype seems a lot better at giving me corrections for when its first guess is wrong.

- Swype just overall seems more accurate when I'm quickly moving through words.

What do you think? It's at least nice knowing the option is there should Swype ever end the Beta ;)
[Nexus 4 General] Shimakaze:
I find myself missing the long-press characters as well, in particular the numbers. I often type passwords with a combination of letters and numbers, and it's a pain having to switch back and forth.

Double characters work fine for me. My understanding is that every word is a prediction when you use gesture typing, and predictions work off of the dictionary. So if the word you're trying to type isn't in the dictionary, then it won't show up correctly. In your case, maybe Cooke isn't a valid word according to Google.
[Nexus 4 General] TonyHoyle:
I tried swype and gave up on it it was so innacurate - suggesting words that didn't even make sense.

The 4.2 keyboard has been excellent.. I'm not convinced it's any faster than just typing though.
[Nexus 4 General] Richieboy67:
I love it but it takes practice. I like the new jb version better than swipe..

Just a tip - go into your dictionary and shortcuts to the words that get misspelled.

I also love the voice typing.. If you have not tried it trust me, you will love it.

[Nexus 4 General] Rusty!:
I prefer it too Swype, double characters aren't a problem, in fact I prefer Google's system. No doing a swirl on a character, just let it figure it out for you.
[Nexus 4 General] wmm:
You can long-press the top row of letters to get numbers; no need to switch back and forth for alphanumeric passwords.

Also, 16 of the most common symbols are accessible via a long-press on the "." key. The most common one that's not on the main keyboard, ",", is the one that's accessed by just long-pressing "." and releasing it, which I thought was creative and very handy; the remaining ones are accessed by a long-press and then a slide to the one you want. I actually think it will work better than Swype for less-frequently used symbols once I get used to it, since I don't have to search the keyboard to remind myself which key I need to press for the one I want.

I think the gesture keyboard is just about as accurate as Swype in my usage, but I agree that the suggestions for a missed word aren't as good, and two alternatives is clearly not enough.

I don't think the bubble floating along above my finger as I trace adds any utility (for me, at least); I'm usually tracing fast enough that I can't read what it has recognized so far, and it's faster just to finish the word than to slow down to look and see if it has the correct answer yet. For people who trace slowly, though, I guess it would be helpful.

---------- Post added at 01:20 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:17 PM ----------

The more recent versions of Swype don't require looping on double characters, either, which was one of the things I really hated about earlier versions. In fact, I used other tracing keyboards (SlideIt, FlexT9) instead of Swype until Swype changed.
[Nexus 4 General] rojovelasco:
For me, typing with Swype y far better than using the 4.2 stock keyboard. The word recognition is much accurate. Using 4.2 Keyboard, I find myself retyping several times until the word that I want is recognized.
[Nexus 4 General] duraeas:
Cooke is in my dictionary for sure - the predictive nature of the keyboard does at least suggest it to come up after my first name.

Interesting that most of you prefer the 4.2... I'm curious, are you people who tried Swype and didn't like it, or people who have been using Swype as their default for the last year or so. It just might be differences in technique. I do it quite quickly.

Tony - I swipe as quickly as a fast touchscreen typer with 2 hands in landscape. The difference is that I get to do it one-handed in portrait. That, to me, is where the convenience lies.

One other features that I really miss when using Google's: after swiping in a bunch of words, Swype lets you tap on them in the text box and swap to the different suggestions. Google only seems to maintain the most recent.

Edit: Again, I don't mind doubling up on letters. The option to not do it is nice, for sure, but I prefer the accuracy.
[Nexus 4 General] Jayrod1980:
The swiping feature on 4.2 looks pretty but I think it's not really there for the phone but rather for tablets. Pecking out words even in portrait on the N10 is unbearable for me. Swiping is the only way I can half way efficiently type out a sentence or post. Maybe if you have spider hands you can peck it out but I have a really hard time with it. I wish they would have just made the keyboard have the ability to split. I know there's other keyboard software out there that can take care of this, but none of them look like the stock keyboard. A minor point, but the stock keyboard look and layout is home to me. The other ones don't seem to mesh with the look of android as well.
[Nexus 4 General] wmm:
My thumb isn't that coordinated! I trace pretty quickly, but only with the index finger of my right hand while holding the phone with my left. If I tried to do it with my thumb, I'd drop the phone for sure! :)

The gesture keyboard isn't much worse than Swype in that regard: if you double-tap on a word, you get a "replace" button that gives you a list of suggested alternatives, and nearly always what I intended to type is in that list (YMMV). The main thing I miss about Swype is that it remembers your cursor position: if you double-tap and correct an earlier word, when you're done the cursor goes back to where it was before you double-tapped. I'd really love to have that back (although I'm lazy and probably won't bother to install Swype on my N4; the gesture keyboard is good enough, IMHO).
[Nexus 4 General] Rusty!:
You should have your pinkie under the phone so it can't drop ;)
[Nexus 4 General] kayateia:
IMO...

I've been using Swype since February or so. I strongly prefer the old Swype. The newer beta that was merged with FlexT9 no longer lets you swipe symbols, which was a killer feature. For example you could swipe from the key that held : as a long-press, and ) as a long-press, and it would give you a smiley as one of the alternatives. You could do this even with symbols that weren't shown as alternatives on the normal keyboard, as long as you added them to the dictionary, so you could do things like <hugs> if you wanted. Swype has so far not implemented anything remotely similar, and neither has Google. In fact, some of it has become even worse with the Google keyboard. Try typing "^^". I use all these emoticons a lot.

So I guess I'd say that I prefer the old Swype most, then the Google keyboard (which seems nicer than the new Swype beta to me), and then the Swype beta. I could never go back to picking out letters one by one. It's a lot more muscle movement and near-impossible to do while walking down a street or something.

That said, unfortunately my Nexus S old Swype APK is for 800x480, so it looks silly on an N4. :D I was planning to go find an xhdpi version somewhere, but I've been using the Google keyboard, and I'm fond of it just for typing out text. I'd be mostly happy switching to it if it did punctuation.
[Nexus 4 General] Serious_Beans:
4.2 keyboard seems more accurate to me. Swype was more inaccurate for my use. Also I like how I can type normally and then gesture type when I want without switching keyboards. Also this is the first iteration of it and its equal to if not better than swype which has been in beta for like 3 years.
[Nexus 4 General] Rusty!:
If you turn off word prediction, the bar at the top displays punctuation.

Assuming that's what you meant, of course.
[Nexus 4 General] MaxCarnage:
I love the keyboard. I used Swype for a long time and this feels almost exactly like it except that the keyboard is great for tap typing and swiping. The word prediction has been fine for once I stopped trying to use it like a Swype keyboard and got back into the habit of sweeping again. I still tap a lot when I can use both hands, but for one handed typing its hard to beat swiping.

[Nexus 4 General] LateApex:
The only thing i like about swype better is that it would automatically add words to my dictionary. With 4.2 i find the vocabulary a little more limited and and adding words manually is painful. Other than that i find it more accurate and faster, but I'm still on an old galaxy captivate patiently waiting...
[Nexus 4 General] agtitan:
I find the exact opposite. I find the stock keyboard to be very inaccurate when using the swype feature. I am using the real swype again now and loving it much more than stock. I guess you get used to one way when you've been using it a long time
[Nexus 4 General] down8:
Accuracy is fine - perhaps even better. But "added words" sucks so far. I have to continually add things like "Down8" (my username here & other places), and it never seems to stick.

I'm sure Google's keyboard will improve, but I may end up on Swype until then.

[Nexus 4 General] clockwork58:
i find the typing feature in Swype is better in 4.2, when of course I'm not swyping.

I prefer it over the 4.2 keyboard but maybe cause I've been use to Swype for over a year and a half now.
[Nexus 4 General] czaplin:
Swype is great, much better than 4.2. The only feature I miss is Google voice button. I simply hate that dragon dictation. Fix that and it'll be prefect.
[Nexus 4 General] sungrad:
Swype allows you to swipe a full email address too without stopping. Even though I've added mine to the 4.2 dictionary it doesn't let me swipe it.

Also, Swype is better for words like "too", "I" and "a".
[Nexus 4 General] neuty:
I text quite a bit (200-400 texts per day) and i have to agree with a previous user that the old Swype was the best. However, Swype Beta does have new additions that make it more accurate (also more laggy, but you cant notice with this beast of a phone). I Swype with my thumb and find Swype to be just the right fit for my hand to reach from side to side of the phone. The 4.2 Keyboard's letters are too much apart and require me to strain my thumb for certain words (and i have large hands, cant imagine someone with regular sized ones).

The lack of having a quick comma key, smiley's on a key, and being too big just destroys the whole purpose of it being fast and swift in the 4.2 keyboard. On top of that 4.2 Keyboard lacks more word suggestions and its just BIGGER. I want a fast keyboard! (Swype Beta 1.3 has integrated themes BTW for those saying 4.2 Keyboard looks better).

I am not an advocate for Swype, i am willing to change to any keyboard that does any better than it any day.

[Nexus 4 General] svengalis:
I use SwiftKey 3. It reads your mind! Can't wait to try out the keyboard in 4.2 though when I get my Nexus.
[Nexus 4 General] duraeas:
My thought is that users who haven't been using Swype, but are now using gestures on the 4.2 keyboard, probably type much more deliberately than someone like myself, who has used Swype for 2 years. I'm not looking at the keyboard as I type, and words I enter that Swype gets correct, Google seems to have no idea.
[Nexus 4 General] tebower:
Add your name to the dictionary. Type it, touch it in the suggestion bar, and touch to save.
[Nexus 4 General] dr.devman:
4.2 keyboard is more reliable
[Nexus 4 General] FallN:
I agree 100% with everything you wrote. The 4.2 keyboard just doesn't stack up to Swype. It refuses to learn words or at least pick the words I use over and over. I keeps giving me the same wrong predictions then I'm forced to hunt and peck type negating the usefulness of gesture typing!

Google needs to address this in an update.

Take a cue from Swype and Swift and fix this already.

As stated above, the 4.2 keyboard "does" this as well, but fails in some use cases. It takes a double tap which fails in things like text boxes used in the xda forum post dialog.
[Nexus 4 General] kayateia:
I've been learning a lot about the 4.2 keyboard from this thread. :) Thank you all. I'm on the verge of reversing my previous choice after learning about shortcuts in the dictionary. I've been able to make a shortcut for e.g. "yk", which, when swiped, prints ^^;. That's what I could do in Swype by adding ^^; to the dictionary. Now I can add all my old Swype shortcuts into this, and even though I can't see them in the keys, they do work. :) Much happier.

Double-tap to correct old words will help too.

I guess the thing I'm still missing is Swype's contraction shortcuts. You could swipe from the . up to s, and it would put in 's for you. Same with 'd and such. Also you could swipe ".com" for URLs.

I'm sure it'll improve over time.
