[Windows 8 General] wifesabitch:
I followed the instructions in the OP. It said it installed, I restarted and nothing. No icon, no keyboard. Does this work with 8.1?
[Windows 8 General] itsnotmeatall:
I only tried with 8, so I'm not sure. Their website says 'For Windows8.' I guess we'll have to wait for them to make a 8.1 version.
[Windows 8 General] wifesabitch:
I got this working with the latest update.

It's better than stock but I still can't get the auto-pop up to work in desktop mode.

Does that feature work for anybody?
[Windows 8 General] SixSixSevenSeven:
It isn't a feature of windows 8 to have an auto pop up keyboard on desktop
[Windows 8 General] barakisbrown:
I got this working on my Dell Venue 8 Pro Tablet. Thank you.
[Windows 8 General] sav2880:
Were you able to get it working so that the auto keyboard popup didn't come up in Desktop mode and you could bring it up on demand?
[Windows 8 General] mdwh:
Although I'm glad Google have added swiping, they still took years after this was being done by 3rd party keyboards, and I don't think Apple have added it either (nor can you even use a 3rd party keyboard). So I don't think they're more short-sighted than anyone else.

One of the annoying things I find about larger tablets is that touchscreen keyboards start to become slower to use, because your finger now has to travel a greater distance, and swiping is affected more by this, because of the friction, so I can see why they first investigated alternatives (e.g., split keyboard) given Windows 8 initially being targetted at big tablets. Though it would be nice for them to add swiping anyway.
[Windows 8 General] itsnotmeatall:
Yeah but Microsoft is late to the game. They should have learned from the others who came before them.

You are right about the larger screen affecting speed, but there is an easy solution: Having the keyboard in a phablet-sized box on the bottom right of the screen, so that you can use the thumb that is already used to swipe-typing on the phone.

[Windows 8 General] barakisbrown:
Actually. I had to uninstall it because it was causing other weird glitches with my tablet.
[Windows 8 General] petersteier:
Sorry, wrong forum, you show android. The Windows 8 app cannot be "detached". If you resize it, there remains a black strip over the full screen width.

*** Correction ***: one can detach it! However, swype does not work in Windows 8.1 (you can get the keyboard running by finding TPKeyBoard.exe in the Programs folder and starting it directly.
[Windows 8 General] Droid90s:
A beautiful addition to Windows, we will facilitate the writing ... Loading

Thank you for providing :good:
[Windows 8 General] DanHayman:
no worky, worky on Winn8.1 Pro

I'll add a second vote to the quote above.

Felt like I almost gad it there and working only to find I had wasted my time. BTW, works even less well (is that even a sentence) with a digitizer/pen combo. Found that what little I could get from it, only worked with my flesh and blood finger on the touch screen (I have a Sony flip which offers both if you chose to purchase the optional active digitizer pen--something I recommend highly even though it was less than useless with this even more less than useless app.).

I just don't get it, there should be a plethora of swipe type keywords out there for All versions of Win 8. Boggles the brain.

[Windows 8 General] cphilip:
Actually, Touchpal has been working very smoothly for me. The trick i think is to enable the built in full windows keyboard and remove the native windows 8 keyboard. Then pin on the taskbar shortcut to start touchpal exe.

By doing this, touch pal works very well in the desktop mode and even in the metro mode. In metro mode, touchpal will pop up when needed. Otherwise, the full built in windows keyboard will pop up.

Another good keyboard to consider is zwkb keyboard.

Hope there will be more choices in near future. I love "swype" system very much and i can input text quite fast with the system.

But I also love t9 phonepad system.

When I compare the 2 system

Swype system = Hold device with one hand. Another hand do the sliding.

T9 system = Hold device with one hand. Can do the typing with another hand OR with the same hand (if the phonepad is designed in such a way that it can be smaller and placed to the right side of a 6 - 7 inch screen for those who are right handed.
[Windows 8 General] Therealchefdave:
not sure about this

Had I read the prior pages comments there would have been no need for me to have downloaded the program. DOH!
[Windows 8 General] manhattan212:
Me too!

Just chiming my two cents in.

"Curve" is non functional on my 8.1 device, despite being enabled in the settings.

Eagerly awaiting a swipe keyboard for Windows.

[Windows 8 General] donroja:

[Windows 8 General] AviUA:
Attempting to run on Windows 8.1 running on a Asus NotePad 8. This device has a Wacom digitizer built in, someone else in this thread said it doesn't work on devices with styluses. Think I can confirm that.

Installs but when I try to run it I get "A referral was returned by the server".

Won't start at all.

-avii
[Windows 8 General] cphilip:
Have to update.

After updates, touch pal no longer works on my note 8 wacom tablet.

Now, I use android tablet most of the time because android had swiping keyboard.

Only occasionally I would use my windows tablet.

If windows tablet has swiping keyboard I believe I will be using my windows tablet more than my android tablet.

Unfortunately, Microsoft until now has not been able to make sliding keyboard for windows tablets.
[Windows 8 General] cphilip:
I installed touchpal onscreen keyboard again and this time I managed to get it to work with windows 8.1 on my Asus vivotab note 8.

To get it to work, after installing, using windows explorer -> rightclick on -> C:\program files\Cootek\Touchpal\keyboard\tpkeyboard.exe

select -> properties -> compatibility tab

Tick -> run this program as an administrator

Click -> Apply and OK

Restart pc.

After, the desktop loads up, it will take a few seconds for the touchpal floating toolbar to appear on the desktop. When you start Notepad and click on the touchpal floating toolbar, you will be prompted to allow touchpal to run. Just click ok. This touchpal floating toolbar is supposed to run automatically at windows startup. It is not necessary but I added a shourt cut to run this floating toolbar on my desktop just in case i needed to start it manually. In pc settings > time and language > region and language > languages > English > options>

here, I have also deleted the english touch keyboard and re added it back again. By doing this the "Unavailable input method (touchpal)" is first keyboard on the list and the english touch keyboard is second on the list.

Note: In windows 8, touchpal was working ok without doing this and it was working both on desktop mode and RT mode.

Now in windows 8.1, I managed to get touchpal to work only in destop mode. In windows rt /metro mode, I still need to use microsoft touch keyboard.

For now, I am just happy that it worked even after rebooting again and again. Hope some windows updates will not stop it from working again.

I can type so much faster using the sliding (swype) from letter to letter method than tapping on the qwerty keyboard layout.

What is good is that the touchpal can also do split layout when needed. When the touchpal is undocked the size becomes a little bit smaller. This makes it even easier to slide around in some cases. thanks touchpal!
[Windows 8 General] samjoandco:
thanks Philip, your tips did get the touch pal working again for me, it is not as good as Swype on Android but is pretty usable nevertheless.

do you know how to add custom words to the dictionary ?

also the swiping works only when the I click the blue keyboard icon that is floating on desktop. any way to make it auto pop up when you have cursor on editable text area?

Has anyone found a bluetooth car kit for the XDA IIs that has half way decent sound quality? I'm on my second PARROTT kit and the quality is not good!

Looking for some recommendations or others user experiences with XDA IIs kits.
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Accessories] emcclem:
I havea similar issue...just got a QTEK 9090 in the form of a Vodafone1620....tried it with my existing Nokia BT HF Kit. Works great for me but callers are complaining about a very bad echo.
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Accessories] pguilf:
Bad Echo with Hands Free Kit

I have the same problem. I am on my second Blue Angel. One was a Qtek 9090 and I now have an XDA IIs. Both have a very bad echo when using it with a Nokia CK-7W bluetooth car kit, so much so that I now use a Bluetooth earpiece in the car.

I assume it is the Blue Angel that has the problem and not the car kit because my Nokia 6060 had no problem.
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Accessories] cgrillo:
Car Kit

I use the Sony Ericson BT car kit and the sound quality is very good - no echos'a at all.
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Accessories] Simonp:
BT carkit for Blue Angel

So is the Sony Ericsson the best for sound recevied both by the caller and the receiver? anyone else tried this? I dont want to start a collection of bluetooth carkits if I can help it :lol:

Was this a professional install? Any particular Sony BT model?

Many thanks
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Accessories] cgrillo:
BT car Kit

I'm using the Sony Ericson HCB-300 car kit.

I installed it myself.

It gets a bit of noise from the car at high speed :twisted: , but that's my car - not the car kit.
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Accessories] Armes:
If I can throw in my uninformed two penn'rth: I own a Nissan which has bluetooth hands free through the radio/CD player. It pairs with my XDA2 but doesn't make or receive calls through it. It pairs with my old Sony Erricson 68i and works perfectly, with excellent sound at both ends of the call. If you are getting an echo, it is very likely that the hands free is not disconnecting the mic on the phone, so you are then getting feedback. A simple test would be to obscure the mic on the phone and try again. Won't solve the problem, but will at least show what's causing it.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] ccsoccer23:
I'm trying to figure out how to disable the TSP Hovering/Air View/Gesture Sensor. I've disabled all settings related to Air View/Gestures, but the Sensor is still there. If I hover my finger over a button in the Browser, I can see that it gets "highlighted."

However, in a Rom Emulator that I'm trying to run if I hover over any buttons they will be pressed, which makes the Emulator practically unusable. Is there any System App I can freeze or a setting I can set to lower or completely turn off the sensor? I know there's a Sensor Touch setting to increase the sensitivity when wearing gloves, so it seems like it may be possible to reduce the sensitivity in a similar manner.

Thanks!

GENERAL COMMENT AND REQUEST:

We ask all the regular contributors here to please answer the "xxx is broken" or "yyy force closes" statements without an attached logcat with something like "LOGCAT or it didn't happen"

Feel free to be creative but DO NOT respond with wipe cache/clear data or any other attempted solution before the reporting user has taken the trouble to actually try to help solve the problem (e.g. by attaching a logcat, detailed steps to reproduce etc.).

We need to force more discipline in how issues are reported which will help us all find and squash bugs that may exist.

Just clearing data etc. may in fact cause us to never find the bug that caused the issue and just makes for lazy users.

FOR RANDOM REBOOTS:

disable screen rotation

Waiting for others to report when your build is ready and up ;)

[MENTION=5264432]DroidModderXtreme[/MENTION] I will try something for ram management on frameworks_av and will tell you if it works ;) I will build it again when I have free time :)
