I got an update last week and it added a menu option gor swype keyboard settings and and a swype tutorial to my keyboard settings.
Yet I cant seem to be able to enable the swype keyboard as its not an option for my input method.
Anybody else see this update? Or know how i can switch to swype?

Ok I feel like an idiot! As I finished that post I figured it out. Apparently you have to long press in the text input field and select "input method" and there you have it!

Well i did the OTA update and i see that swype is installed but when i type the stock keyboard comes up is there a setting i have to enable?
Long press on a text box after the keyboard is up and select change input source (or something like that) and hit swype.

+1 if that doesn't work go to settings, language and keyboard and enable it.
Select input method won't seem to go away.. I tried making it so only Samsung keyboard is enabled but the select input method won't go away? When ever I have my keyboard open it is. And sometimes I have to press space twice? Really causes a lot of typos and frustration

is the "default" set in settings>language and input
maybe try unchecking the other options as well, have you tried that?
I only have the 2 and you cant disable the Samsung keyboard

I recently flashed the stable release of CM9 and after installing my favorite keyboard have noticed this annoying f**king icon asking to select input method. Maybe I'm just over looking something but how do I get rid of it?

That's how it looks when you have a non-stock keyboard selected. They did this to remove some of the obscurity of switching keyboards.
I know if you long press the mic button on the Samsung keyboard, you can select the clipboard from the pop up thing. is there a way to access the clipboard from the Swype keyboard?? maybe a Swype-key shortcut?
thanks

Swype from the Swype key to c to copy and to v to paste, to a to select all, to backspace to put away the keyboard, to t to get number keyboard and to the symbol key to get editing keyboard

thanks... I knew about those, most of those, but no way to bring up the clipboard like on the Samsung keyboard?

I forgot about Swype-T That's a handy shortcut, thanks!
Another nice one: When the cursor is in a word, Swype-shift gives you capitalisation options.
I've definitely brought up the clipboard a few times accidentally when using Swype, I think when going from the Swype key. I dunno if it's a bug or 'undocumented feature'. Either way, I just wish I could choose when it appeared!

It may be me but, does anyone else have a tough time using the keyboard on this phone. It seems to me it doesnt respond well to the "key press" and I dont have fat fingers. :laugh:
I just have issues with the autocorrect. Switched to stock Android keyboard and no more issues

I can't seem to get the handwriting to work. I take out the pen and switch to that when trying to write a response to a text message and it does nothing. I write the word and it doesn't translate it to text. It just sits there.
The handwriting aspect is bugged you need to uninstall the keyboard and reinstall it reboot device then it should work.
