Excellent work, though there does seem to be a problem with it recognising names in the contact field when typing an SMS in manila 2.5

for example:

start a new SMS

swype "robert" into the contact field

the dropdown menu with all people named "robert" does not show

only a small problem.
[Windows Mobile Themes] Baly23:
the problem is only for swype?
[Windows Mobile Themes] rumpleforeskin:
Is this question to me?

if so, then yes, this problem only occurs with swype. The other input options correctly call the dropdown menu in the conatcts field
[Windows Mobile Themes] Baly23:
i don't know, i'm sorry
[Windows Mobile Themes] rjmjr69:
WOW this is awesome stuff. You made PocketNow.com
[Windows Mobile Themes] rjmjr69:
You need to TAP in each letter not swype it.
[Windows Mobile Themes] slaman:
This is a bug in the latest Sense I think... if you swype the name, then press backspace, it will show up.
[Windows Mobile Themes] Baly23:
i spent some minutes at understand why it doesn't work.

If you swype, the word inserted is composed directly by 5 letters for example and the contact manager doesn't show you any name. if you backspace it will search the contact that name starts by first 4 letters, because the number of change is only 1 letter: (5 to 4). When you type a name (not swype) you have 0 to 1, or 1 to 2... and contact manager will recongnize it.

If you try to use copy and past a name, you have always to delete last letter to show the contact list.

So isn't a swype bug and not also a sense bug. Sense wasn't build for work with skype so his is an exception that you can skip simply by backspacing ;)
[Windows Mobile Themes] rjmjr69:
No if you TAP each letter in it will work

BALY do you have plans for any other skins for this board?

Hi upon installing, i had this error " opEN OF EnglishUS failed!"

any idea ?
[Windows Mobile Themes] rumpleforeskin:
the backspace trick works :)

unfortunatly tapping the name in does not work for me (using latest NRG rom on topaz)
[Windows Mobile Themes] wagonz:
I have installed the skin cab file and there was the "open of EnglishUS failed!"

error causing my hd2 to hang.

I have since uninstalled the skin programme , uninstalled & reinstall the orig swype

but the error still exist. Please help ....

I want to use back the swype. thanks

Have anyone found out how to insert a different dictionary to swype?

I'd like to use it with portuguese dictionary...
[Windows Mobile Themes] drew2000:
NICE!

Excellent work Baly23................looks great!
[Windows Mobile Themes] redrum77:
I cant seem to get the punctuation to work, am on HD2. For the '=' sign i tap on 'C' and pull it to spacebar i am getting 'CV' instead of '=' ? Anyone else facing this issue ?
[Windows Mobile Themes] NRGZ28:
This will be cooked in all my ROMs from now on. Good work man :)
[Windows Mobile Themes] Baly23:
check a screen align... and retry...

capacitive scrreens arent good for swype
[Windows Mobile Themes] leejx:
have you found out the solution to this? im facing the same problem..
[Windows Mobile Themes] conchimnon007:
not working on Atom Life(Qvga)

i don't undestand it:confused:
[Windows Mobile Themes] Dom1n8tr1x:
Great work and nice skin, will also be cooking this into my ROM.
[Windows Mobile Themes] Baly23:
search the solution of this problems in some pages ago. it's a problem of default program files folder

let's try the same thing for the HD2

Does it work on HTC TOUCH (ELF) ?
[Windows Mobile Themes] Baly23:
it should, i don't know if there is any issues...

if not work could be a ROM incompatibility
[Windows Mobile Themes] MiguelGomes:
Swype with error

Hi guys,

I am also facing this problem,

Had to uninstall....

cheers,
[Windows Mobile Themes] Baly23:
check in the first post, move the swype folder to "program files"
[Windows Mobile Themes] ryousuke:
awesome...

can someone upload a package for ervius kitchen

original + themed...

would make cooking easier for some...
[Windows Mobile Themes] Baly23:
I haven't ever create a kitchen package, try to copy the program files/swype folder ;)
[Windows Mobile Themes] slaman:
Amazing skin...thanks for it!

One thing is that there is no arrow keys like in the regular HTC keyboard... is it possible to modify Swype using a skin so that the arrow keys also appear on the main keyboard?
[Windows Mobile Themes] Baly23:
no. it isn't...

swype is so closed (by source) that you cannot modify nothing except the skin and add word to the dictionary (too slow for a new language)
[Windows Mobile Themes] slaman:
I see... also there is a bug with HTC Messaging and Swype where if you swype in a few letters of the contact you want to send a message to, it doesn't auto-complete or show the list of options... you have to press backspace before it does that.

Any ideas of how we might be able to fix this? The problem doesn't exist with the HTC SIP
[Windows Mobile Themes] Anomoly:
i'm very impressed... i've used shapewriter and slideIT... but i think this works better. great skin also
[Windows Mobile Themes] Baly23:
No, there isn't a fix, you should only backspace... that's also faster than tap on each letter ;)

Thanks!
[Windows Mobile Themes] deep_purple:
Isn't it easier to just covert from CAB to OEM or EXT yourself? Check this guide out, I use it all the time and it works perfectly: http://www.techparaiso.com/convert-cab-to-oem-to-ext-and-vice-versa/
[Windows Mobile Themes] Baly23:
if someone decide to convert thepackage, i can upload it in the first post for an easy downlload for everyone =)
[Windows Mobile Themes] deep_purple:
Okay, here you go. Remember to ensure that Swype VGA is first in the kitchen so that the Swype HTC-Link Skin over-writes the original files. Alternatively, one can replace the files in Swype VGA with the ones from the Skin zip before cooking.
[Windows Mobile Themes] Baly23:
i'm from mobile right now, when i come to pc i'll upload on a mirror ;)

if sommeone would convert other resolution, i could be just happier =)

[Windows Mobile Themes] rfarrah:
In the portrait version, any way to make the keys bigger; use up some of the empty spaces?

...just curious.
[Windows Mobile Themes] Baly23:
don't need to slide really on the key, just near is sufficient ;)
[Windows Mobile Themes] slaman:
I like this idea as well since there is a lot of room between rows. also, minor nit, but when a letter is selected, the highlighted portion doesnt cover the whole key making the skin look unfinished.
[Windows Mobile Themes] Baly23:
like i said before, you don't have to slide really on the key, just near is also good, so bigger keys aren't necessary. if they will be bigger, the highlighted zone will be too smaller than the key, and the bad effect that (now is smaller) will be more noticable ;)
[Windows Mobile Themes] slaman:
Ah I understand... There is no way to "skin" the selection of a button so that it matches the size of the key itself?
[Windows Mobile Themes] Baly23:
not by bmp image or ini files editing... if the coder wanted it as a variable thing, the setting is inside some dll... but i haven't searched until now; or it could be a setting inside the program and you cannot modify it if you have not the source code and recompile it =)
[Windows Mobile Themes] slaman:
Thanks for the response... this seems to be the most active Swype-related thread on XDA...

Was just wondering - I have an HTC TP2 with a custom ROM and have installed Swype. Occassionally, Swype will just stop working as a SIP - I have to revert to the HTC input... soft resets don't always fix it. The icon shows up, and I can select it, but it just doesn't pop up the keyboard.

Any idea?

I run Clean RAM and I'm thinking that there might be a conflict that's causing Swype to freeze up, but can't find the .exe to add to Clean RAM's exception list.
[Windows Mobile Themes] Baly23:
you could try to reinstall swype, over the one pre cooked in your rom, and then reinstall the skin ;)
[Windows Mobile Themes] Jambo17:
Love the effort but unfortantly on my Elf / Miky 6682 WM6.5 build 28014 - when choosing Swype I have a large black box that occuipes most of the screen. Swype is in Program Files, help?
[Windows Mobile Themes] stylez:
Very nice only just got around to testing QVGA will be cooking in next ROM :)
[Windows Mobile Themes] abelazi:
Tweaks to size of the suggested words during character input

I was wondering if anyone had a similar issue: I'm using swype on a VGA device (Touch Pro), the keyboard size is huge and takes up a good percentage of the screen real estate, the issue that makes it unworkable is when I'm doing individual character input and the list of swype suggestions comes up and covers characters on the keyboard so I can no longer complete the word I was trying to enter in the first place?

Don't get me wrong, I love this program!!! and another liquid donation is on its way but the aforementioned would have to be my one gripe - if anyone has any ideas or suggested tweaks I would be very grateful - is it possible to resize through the registry?

Dear Folks,

I know my HTC HD2 is only a few hours old. But I installed SWYPE, but the error "Open US English Failed" and SWYPE will not work.

Any ideas? I also tried to install the BIG files (HTC-Like_Skin_Baly23 (WVGA)) but could not even find out how to get these to run.

I am a newbie, and I have read all the posts I could find.

[Windows Mobile Themes] ninja4hire:
Ninja - Blue

Hey Baly23,

Great job on the skin. I hope you don't mind but I took your skin and changed it a bit for my Omnia 2.
[Windows Mobile Themes] yshaikh01:
Its because by default the skin installs to the device regardless of where you installed the swype keyboard. If you check in device Program Files you should see a swype dir, copy the contents to where you installed Swype i.e \Storage Card\Swype. Make sure there is not a Swype dir in device Program Files or you will get that error.
[Windows Mobile Themes] adchesney:
Thank you for your response.

Just for the avoidance of doubt, can I confirm the process:

1. install SWYPE to device (I'm OKay with this)

2. install the large sized files to device as well?

Regards

ADC
[Windows Mobile Themes] The__J__Factor:
Hey i was just wandering does your skin fix the problem of swype slightly overlapping the bottom bar when using wm6.5?

No big deal but not sure how to fix it.

Sorry didnt read entire thread before i asked - now have read it so disregard the question

Yes, the problem only occurs if you install the Swype keyboard to My Storage or Storage Card

[Windows Mobile Themes] adchesney:
Dear Folks,

I know I'm new to this stuff, but I can't get SWIPE going. I installed the 1.49mb file SWYPE and then installed the large HTC-Like... file.

I rebooted the HTC HD2. Went to - Start-Settings-Menu-All Settings-Personal-Input and then selected SWYPE.

But when I go to Word the SWYPE is not there...I go bak to the above settings and "Touch Input" is the default.

Can you tell me what I am doing wrong?

ADC (Yateley, UK)
[Windows Mobile Themes] Baly23:
i don't know... you could try to pm to people with hd2 in this post, that make it working =)
[Windows Mobile Themes] thepolishguy:
couple of things...

ok- let me first point out the obvious

1. When you open Word and your default keyboard opens up, next to the little keyboard icon there is a tiny arrow. When you touch that arrow a menu will pop up and on that menu there is an option for "other input methods". press that option and then another menu will pop up listing all your installed input method. if you have installed swype correctly it will be listed. select swype from the menu.

2. i would say reinstall swype without the skin just to make sure it is being installed correctly (because no offense but it sounds like you are very new to this)

3. for me- i could not make swype my default keyboard until i installed a little application called "SipChange". No matter how many times i set it as default- it wouldn't stick. someone told me about "Sipchange". after you know that you have installed swype correctly install Sipchange. find it on your start menu and run it. When you run it a menu will pop up with your available SIP's (input methods). Touch swype (highlight it) and then press select.

IMPORTANT!!!!!! There is a little box "Initial Delay". Put 60 seconds in there or SipChange will crash on start up.

4. Turn off your phone. Turn it back on. See what happens.
[Windows Mobile Themes] hayabusa07:
can someone please tell me why swype isn't working on leo landscape rom????

even though i have installed sip changer

[Windows Mobile Themes] ss0mohit:
is this just me?

i downloaded swype, that worked fine.

i download the skin (which is GREAT BTW, itching to try it)

but this is my 2nd download and it'll give me the error message of "Open of English-US failed" and wouldn't let me open swype again, even after i uninstalled both the skin and swype.

[Windows Mobile Themes] benjun:

[Windows Mobile Themes] RayEarth:
Is it possible to post the landscape skin for portrait so that it takes up 50% room? I'm using Diamond VGA and with this skin it covers 70% of the screen (along with the menu bar at the bottom). It would be great to have a smaller skin (we don't really need the space bar!)
[Windows Mobile Themes] Baly23:
the idea is really good!

I'll try during free time to do it... no release prevision thesedays ;)
[Windows Mobile Themes] RayEarth:
Thanks Baly!

Of course, what I was trying to say is to have a skin that DOES'T take up 50% of the room...:P
[Windows Mobile Themes] chezstik:
Have the exact same bevaiour on AT&T Tilt 2 w/ stock ROM and even after uninstallation, on the input methond selection I can pick languages, and it put most of my other input methods under a "Other Input Methods" menu.

ladies and gents,

im a bit of a tech retard, so which of the files do i need for my HTC HD2,

im not really sure what the QVGA, WVGA... nonsense means. Im new to smart phones, having had good old reliable nokias all my life.

Help greatly appreciated.
[Windows Mobile Themes] rfarrah:
Look up the specs on your phone and see if your screen is (W)QVGA or (W)VGA; then you'll know and it won't be nonsense to you. :)
[Windows Mobile Themes] lloydy_57:
aha good man. Done!

Cheers :)
[Windows Mobile Themes] thepolishguy:
HTC HD2! WOW! QVGA, WVGA refers to your screen size or screen resolution. Your phone is WVGA or it has a resolution of 480x800. So while you are looking for cool aps or skins or themes for your phone- you want to keep that in mind. And make sure they are built for your resolution. Some are built for all resolutions. Oh- and I believe the phone you have is referred to a PocketPC or PPC. I think there is a difference between a "Smart Phone" and a "Pocket PC". A "Smart Phone" refers to a non-touch screen phone. While "Pocket PC" refers to a touch screen phone. Just giving you a heads up.

Here ( http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=5642555&postcount=611 ) you can get a PNG (not BMP!) enabled Swype, may you forge something for your version too by looking at that? I tried but I couldn't... :(
[Windows Mobile Themes] Baly23:
I'm too busy to do it...

if someone have some spare time, could:

try to install the PNG version, copy the skin files on the pc, open my bmp files and copy the content on the png file...

then repack the cab with the png files instead of the bmp ;)

what keyboard?! In swype the phone keypad is skinned also with the htc style

if you download the cab and open it with WinCe Cab or something like this (i dont remember the right name) and click on "extract" you will get the bmp files, open in photoshop, convert to PNG and repack the cab ;)

You can't just replace images, and copying bmp contents into PNG work but I think keys mapping is different... so it doesn't work, thou it shows up pretty nice! :)
