Swype? - EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So I hear there is a new version. 1.6??? I always have a hell of a time finding where I can go to download it.... I an registered in the beta and am using 1.5xxx. Anyone know where I can just download an apk off the new version??? I tried the swype home page and there wasn't crap on there. Thanks for the help.

^^ Yea I am using this as well and really do like it...

I noticed no significant changes in the 1.6 going around other than it had TONS of languages in it...
I modded 1.56 to include a 'microphone' icon for Speech to Text. Link in my signature...

The website...
Unless they've changed anything recently.
Have you checked the themes and apps forum (of xda)?

you can register to take part in the beta testing, that is the only legitimate way (and when the beta expires, you simply pick up a new one)
Paul is correct just signup for the beta
Anyway I suggest you to try the nuance flext9 . I've always used swype but then I tried the flex, cause I was tired of the many bugs of swype... now I'm totally satisfied! I'll never go back to swype xD

Sorry we don't support stealing apps around these parts, I'm assuming your asking about Flext9 not swype, directions for which andy has supplied below
Get the beta for free and legal here --> http://beta.swype.com
Just sign up and they will send you the download link.
Does swype not work for anyone else? When I downloaded the beta, it said it was designed for another device. It's just a regular keyboard, I can't drag/swype to type. Is anyone else experiencing this?

After you downloaded swype installer and installed it, he asks you if you want to enable swype... Click on yes and the installer will license swype -> I had the same issue

Go to www.beta.swype.com and register as a beta user. That's all you need to do.

Swype works fine on Gingerbread, its what I use.
If the Swype APK is pulled from another ROM, it might be the wrong version, and not compatible with GB. Easiest way to get Swype is to just sign up at the Swype beta website like the previous response stated. Then it will send the installer to your phone, which will install Swype, and you will be good to go.
Tanks guys worked great although it took a while for the email to come

Did Google remove the press to hold and change keyboard input option? I keep having to go change it in settings and that's a bit of an annoyance. I like to change keyboards every so often.

When you bring up the keyboard, there is an icon on the top notification bar. Select from there.
Finally, some Swype action!

Okay, so that's what that was. Lol. I was becoming frustrated that the little icon was up there so I assumed it was Swype spamming me. Thanks a lot! I guess it doesn't show up until you have more than one keyboard available.

has anyone been able to download any language files?
it seems the download capability is broken. I couldn't download any language files or dragon feature.
p.s.
Downloading works but it just needs some time.
Downloading the additional languages seems a little buggy. Sometimes the option completely disappears from the menus( even whilst being connected to wifi the whole time). It's not a conclusive method of getting the menu option back but I think running the swype setup/installer app when swype is already installed seemed to bring it back for me. Then several times when opening the download languages menu it sat with the loading twirly for ages and ages.
Also when finally getting the list of languages and downloading my desired language, the downloading was fairly fast but installing took ages.
What was also funny was swype had defaulted to Spanish when I first downloaded it and I was wondering why it's predictions had become so seemingly odd....

You can't. It's the way you change keyboard in ICS (except stock keyboard which is long press space).
The norification will stay there unless Swype implements the ICS way to change keyboard.
I'm using Swype whole mounth. build that I found works perfectly in my g nexus.
I can give apk if somebody wants. Also it supports lots of languages.

and I don't have any keyboard icon at top bar. It works how it must (like in 2.3).
But there one BUT: it uses nuance dictation (or dragon) that's no t so cool as default goggle's

Kinda nice they finally implemented themes, but they need more variety which i'm sure will come in versions to come. Definitely agree with the vibration fix!
Very neat. Thanks for the update.

Anyone else experiencing problems with getting the installer for Swype? I am already registered on their website and I have been for nearly 2 years. I haven't used Swype in a while since I switched to Swift Key. I want to try Swype again but they are not sending me the email with the installer link. Has anyone else ran into this issue?

I am having the same issues. Didn't recognize my password, so I did the reset. Changed it, and it still will not let me in. I think they are having some issues.

Yeah same thing happened to me I had to re register my email.so try re registering
-(hit thanks if I helped :])-
I think they were just having some major issues with their servers.
I tried to create a new account with my same e-mail. Told me an account already existed, so I went to log-in instead, and now it lets me sign in finally.
Went back to the installer on my phone, and now I can sign in and download beta 1.3.

Caan you post a link to this? I tried searching and market and cannot find it ?
It's not in the market. I found an apk here on xda by searching on Google for it. I forget which thread, but I didn't like it. It's still in beta though

I got this link signed_Flexo.apk - 29.90 MB[/URL. From somewhere here on xda. Sorry but I can't find the right post I found it in I have looked in so many lol. So far its not bad but its got a ways to go. No auto punctuation no auto capitalization after a period and if it chooses a word for you then that's the word you get, no correction bar choose yourself. Big one for me is no period in main keyboard, but it is a beta afterall.

How did you get it to work on the note 2 please explain Mister? Lol thanks
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I317 using xda premium
I just downloaded that .apk and installed and went into language and input in settings and choose it. There are a few .apks that wont work, I think I tried 4 or 5 before I found the one linked to that worked.
I spent most of the afternoon yesterday getting it working & testing it out on my note & it's pretty cool, but far from ready. It does have correction, by sliding up or down after you type the word. You can cycle through all the possible suggestions by sliding down for next, or up for previous.
Punctuation is done with two swipes to the right, and the symbol keyboard comes up with a swipe up from the bottom right. It's very simplistic, even to the point that you can hide the spacebar & just slide for spaces or punctuation.
I had to use a modded version because the original beta authenticates via device & email address. I'll put the version i found up if anyone wants to try.
