I take it this is the same version you released in the first Swype thread just with the changes you mentioned.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] skanndelus:
yes, it is the newest version with the changes. only english qwerty.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] skanndelus:
any suggestions?
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] zippy-man:
Something without blue that kills it.

I would like one that resembles the stock hero keyboard from sense ui. While it is not the best keyboard i have ever used i still like the look of it.

That or maybe just something that flows with our sense UI a little better the skin now looks like it doesn't belong on our phones
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] regaw_leinad:
wow lol you know your wireless connection is bad when it takes 45 seconds to a minute to download a 1.2mb apk. Stupid UMiami wireless has been weird lately
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] dennistpm:
This version is more stable than the other one which kept FCing whenever I would hold down a key. Great job.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] Las_Vegas:
I had to remove the old Swipe via the Manage Applications settings, but it finally installed and works like a charm.

Thanks! :)
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] watzone69:
Lol, I was just about to post that you MUST un-install any previous versions of Swype first.

As for skinning, I made some for Fingerkeyboard back when I was into WM. You are more than welcome to use anything from those if you want.

I was going to try to skin Swype but I honestly don't have time (and my wife is ready to shoot me for the amount of time I spend on here as it is:p).

Thanks for optimizing this for us. Looking forward to your future work!
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] skanndelus:
something like this?
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] skanndelus:
or the easiest route would be for me to just remove the blue buttons like so
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] skanndelus:
it's going to be a lot of work, so i guess i'll wait and see if this board has a demand for it before proceeding further.

penny for your thoughts xda?
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] zippy-man:
Removing the blue already makes it look better.

The pic you posted above with colors close to what we have now was nice as well.

cant wait to see what you do.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] skanndelus:
yeah. the keys aren't evenly sized which makes a lot of effects a real pain in the bum! lol
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] tmuka:
cool, thanks!

now if someone could take out .01mb more, I might be happy...

:p jk this is great, thanks
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] skanndelus:
does this have optimized PNGs? if it doesn't, take them out of my release and put them in there :)

it cut the PNG file sizes in half
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] Remobero:
i made this one already from your lite apk .. i'm sure we can dig more to get below 1 mig .. i'll look for it first thing tomorrow :)

PS : could u put link in the OP for the Orignal thread and vise-verse ? ..

thnx
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] Remobero:
here u go .. a 1 MB apk. i went to 0.98 MB though but with a few FC with the swype button. this is a more stable one.

changes : en only kb - help working without images - more re-optimized png - no FC

uninstall first b4 applying this one

cheers :)
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] Izeltokatl:
I'd definitely love to get a more Sense UI look to the keyboard. going to grab the latest build and see if I Can modify the PNG files if thats all it takes... im good with photoshop but not good with android at this stage of the game...
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] Izeltokatl:
will this work on Android 2.1 once its comes out? Anyone know how to include a link to the Voice command feature? Thats the only thing Swype is missing =-\ and with Android 2.1 making voice input a standard for all text input... it would be nice to cram some kind of link to activate voice typing with swype. Do we hack it in?
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] skanndelus:
i think on 2.1 you can just long press the text input to switch to that
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] thedudejdog:
I'm running it on 2.1 right now it works fine
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] textstev:
I love this keyboard, would love a better closer to sense ui look, even just graying the blue.

Thanks so much,

is the (latest) lite version much different the full version? I will answer by testing it myself.

FAIL on DROID

Downloaded Swype-Lite.1.16.12.5228.219.apk. When I attempt to run it on my DROID, it states that the screen res is TOO HIGH?? Please help, I LOVE SWYPE, was hoping for a smaller footprint.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] feld:
this is the hero forum, not the droid forum. you have a different resolution and the app needs to support it. this one doesn't. sorry.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] rootbox00:
It is possible to include more languages?
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] skola28:
Alright, I've never had Swype installed, but for some reason, when I long press a text entry field and select Input Method, Swype isn't in the list. I installed the 'micro' version.

I'm running Damageless 2.1 ROM, and I installed the stock android keyboard.

Anyone else having this issue? I installed by copying the apk to my SD card and using EStrongs File Explorer. Also, I have 'allow non-market apps' selected for installation.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] wjason:
Did you go into settings -> language and keyboard and enable swype? Just a thought.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] skola28:
I am officially a moron. Jesus. I should be banned from posting for at least a few months.

Thanks
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] leebsammy:
I really enjoy using the swype lite on my htc eris. I know this is the hero forum but I wanted to post my thanks anyways. I was wondering what the difference between the lite and micro version is. If the lite version works fine is there any reason for me to use micro? is it newer or more stable?
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] KBizzle:
I want to know where the Fack to find a working version. I have tried 4 different ones and they all say that it has expired.

[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] derekstory:
im using it now, works good
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] aauussttiinn88:
yea after using swype for a couple days im completely in love with it awsome for one handed texting....i would make that guy in the new samsung commercial look like a chump lol
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] KBizzle:
Yeah, the micro worked. I just dont like swype, period. I tried 5 times to get it to spell "cool" and all i got was "col". "col" isnt even a word. Thanks again but ima stick with the android keyboard.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] bob2300nx:
You need to go though the swype tutorial before using it. Did you wiggle around the O letter? Willinig to bet that was your problem.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] Quis89:
Swype keeps force closing on me. Anyone else having this issue? Any suggestions?
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] Remobero:
just put in ur sd card and install from any file manager and don't forget to check "install from unknown resources" in the app setting
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] Quis89:
So I installed this using command code. Was that incorrect? Should I have done it from the SD card instead?
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] Remobero:
no it's fine .. but u don have to do nothing special to install it
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] makamobile:

I didnt try the tutorial and tried the wiggle maneuver over the O and it did work this time. I tried to do the tutorial but it appears to not work for some reason. Has some type of exception error in the box that I would assume is giving instructions. No biggie. Maybe Im just not giving it a chance. Ill keep playing with it and see what happens.

I am ever since I switched to Darchlegend Rom v.5. Works fine on every other rom I've used. What rom are you using?
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] danknee:
Strange, I have Darchlegend V.5 with Swypelite on two different heros and have not had any force closes. Have you tried uninstalling and reinstalling Swype?

@Quis89 I would reboot into recovery 1.6.2 and choose Other >> Fix apk UID mismatches

here is the video tutorials if u want to get the best out of it

Sense Style

I would also love to see a sense style color configuration. It'll make the phone feel like nothing has changed. (Besides text input being ten times faster and easier)
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] alan090:
lol did you even use the tutorial?

im guessing no since you dont know how to do double letters...

it doesnt work if you dont know how to use it
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] leebsammy:
i would love different color schemes as well. thanks for lite version. works like a charm on my eris!
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] djR3Z:
Hey if you haven't tried out the Swype keyboard, check out the demo I made of it. The link to download it is in the info. ENJOY!:D

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DG8TVwyX3X8
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] ImmortalLuD:
Good video. :) Did I hear you say, that you have to swype the apk onto the phone? :D

I got this for my girlfriend and I, and we both love it. Only thing I don't like, is when I want to type out things fast without swyping, it keeps putting spaces in the middle of most words. Ugh!
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] leebsammy:
Can anyone else not type haha without the keyboard window closing?
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] dmc971989:
A voice input button on the keyboard would put this over the top for me
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] MILH0U5E:
It's not there yet.. but find the Vlingo apk and you can put a widget on one of ur screens.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] leebsammy:
using the micro version has fixed some issues/bugs I had on the lite one. Which is strange becauseisnt the micro based off the lite. Thanks for the micro version regardless. I appreciate the work you guys have done to get this working as smoothly as possible.

Swype Micro 1.6 on Fresh 2.0d (2.1 based rom)...Problem

Could someone tell me whether this Swype Micro 1.6 apk is compatible with 2.1 based roms?

I am using Fresh 2.0d, but when I go to the Swype tutorial and click on 'touch here to start', it says :

No script is available:

/data/data/com.swype.android/inputmethod/swypedata/tutorial/tutscript-englishus.xml

Any help would be greatly appreciated!
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] djR3Z:
Yes you can. I've installed it on all 2.1 roms and haven't had a problem on any

Yes you did lol. I was saying swype so many darn times... haha :P
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] Rezza2k4:
I'm getting the same error when trying to do the tutorial.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] dom2114:
Yeah, although I got that error, it seems to be working fine now...think i might have restarted the phone but I cant remember!

Either way, until it has a shortcut to prompt for speech-to-text, Im sticking w the HTC keyboard!

All the best.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] Remobero:
the micro version is not based on the lite one.. it's a fresh optimized apk from the original source
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] leebsammy:
oh ok dude, it's been working smoothly, thanks very much.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] BicolXpress:
thanks it works on the Legend :D

is it possible to change the tutorial button on the keyboard and replace it with the htc button which hides the keyboard when pressed.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] leebsammy:
Or if you just remove the tutorial **** would that cut down on more kbs too?
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] Remobero:
or u can just press the back key ;)

trust me m8 all what's left of the tutorial is less than 1 KB .. also the help files have been ripped out of images but it still there 4 reference
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] danknee:
I have found it works great on three co-workers' Heros, two G1s and an Eris. Once it is seen in action I always have to dig my USB cable out and install it on someone else's phone.

Swype is the best drunk texting tool out there...even when sloppy, the general message gets sent. :D
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] takmsdsm:
I have noticed the same thing.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] Nextelian:
There are people who txt sober? WTF for? :D
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] leebsammy:
okay I didn't know that but alright... Now if one of you could just skin it even to make the blue buttons black that would be awesome..

Also, I originally said I had some problems with the lite version so I switched to micro. But after using micro for a few days I feel like it does not guess bigger words as well as the lite version did for me. And ive now switched back to the lite version and all the small issues I was having with it are gone.... Strange?
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] Ceger:
What is the "micro" version?

Any ways, I forced myself to use Swype for a couple of weeks and I just think it is too laggy, unfriendly with words that have double letters (they should be common sense or show as options in the list), and cannot stand the capitalization handling. I find myself going back to edit what I typed far too often. I think they have a long way to go and quite simply, ShapeWriter is a much better product as of the latest version.

However, I will switch to whichever swype type keyboard gets a voice key in it.

Ceger
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] ftothe3:
hmm, doesn't lag for me at all.

for double letters you need to make a circle on the letter

true, capitalization is annoying.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] Ceger:
Double circling letters is annoying as well.

Ceger
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] revlayle:
you don't actually have to circle it, any short-term scribbling action on a letter will double it
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] Ceger:
I know, but both Shapewriter and SlideIT work flawlessly with just going over the letter once, with the former working quite well and intuitively. That is my problem with Swype, it is not that intuitive in comparison.

Ceger
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] JustShim:
Quoted for truth. lol I noticed that too. Even when I'm just typing blindly, without stopping to proofread, 90% of the message is correct and fully spelled. It's pretty great :P
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] Remobero:
as for the customization .. PS is not my thing but i can extract the files for anyone to work on them and i will repack when he is done

this is weird .. micro is working as it should with me try increasing the tolerance setting
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] nebenezer:
I've been trying to skin this thing and can not get it done. I've extracted all the .png's and made them black and gray, and they actually look pretty sweet, but the app wont install.

I have tried:

replacing the png's and installing, wont install.

Installing and pulling the com.swype.blahblah.apk and replacing the pngs in it and pushing back to data/app. Swype installs but when I replace the apk in data/app it disappears, no input method option. I even tried putting it in system/app

Also, I've tried with and without rebooting.

Has anyone accomplished skinning this thing?
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] Remobero:
upload the skinned pngs and let me try
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] jAm-0:
Is this still a leak of swype because it doesn't seem like the final version to me. Ive been using this since it was originally posted and love it btw.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] subliminalurge:
Agreed one thousand percent.

I've been using Swype and love it, but also what to try out shapewriter and slide-it.

The lack of a voice key really, really sucks.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] leebsammy:

[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] surrealbliss:
I was running swype just fine on darch 4.3.1 but I tried upgrading to pre 5.01, and now to 5.05 and I get force closes every time I try to use swype.

I've already tried fixing mismatched apk uids, and that didnt help. I attempted to reinstall it once, but I didn't uninstall it first like I've been seeing people say here, so I'll go try that in a minute and report back. I really like swype and I'd like to get it working.. if this doesn't work I'll try the micro version as well.

Also how do I know which one I have right now? Maybe this is the first one still, it doesn't match any of the file sizes I've seen posted anywhere in this thread. Mine is 1.21 megs.. so maybe I will also try to download the lite version seen here and try it.

edit:

swype micro works fine on my darchlegend 5.05! I'm happy I took the time to read through those 10 pages. ;)

/edit

I would love to have the files to work with. Of course I have to get the keyboard working again first, but I definitely want to do some skinning. ;)

edit: it works now, so I'm ready for files. :D
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] nebenezer:
I have a set of pngs for swype that I've "blacked out" and I've tried everything I can think of to get them incorporated into the apk, both before and after installing, and I just can't get it to work. The installer apk wont install and the installed apk disappears after I push it back. When I get home I'll post the images for anyone that wants to have a go at it.

*edit- fyi, I also tried exporting them, unsigned, from eclipse before droping them into the apk, sill no luck :(

Just starting to dip my toes in that water. I got png swapping down which didn't work with swype, but I haven't resigned any apk's yet. Don't you need the source code to resign an apk?

yeah i know .. the problem is in the source png. it's 320x224 instead of 320x240 i tried to resize them but the letters get screwed. it's not cool ofcourse but I thought packing this theme until i find a proper fix for it

If im correct lite is the trial, and micro is the one that Remobero

hooked up and slimmed down thus the "micro" correct? Well

ive read the thread and found nothing to let me know whether

this is swype full ver or not. If not let me know and ill post one of

my full version copies to work on. Great work Remobero on the slim

down alone, swype is my fave kb, but because its close to 5mb

for me i dont put it in all my roms. Good job, the themeing is just

icing on an already very delicious cake:D like i said anyone let me

know if you need the full version here to work on and ill link it.
