So I just upgraded to CM7 a few days ago and re-added Swype. I noticed it makes a LOT more mistakes when I'm trying to swype words in than it did when I was running Virtuous. Putting the slider to the right for more error room only makes the word pop-up box come up much more frequently, it doesn't actually help with the problem I feel like I'm having. Before it would pick up every word I wanted seamlessly, now I could try to type in "prove" and get "pride" over and over until I move my finger slow and exact, I even had it use "I" instead of "you" once.

im not quiet sure but i think there was something said about the original swype that came with the G2 not playing nice with CM7, a couple people are using the newest beta version and i guess its been better for them

my settings
auto spacing- on
auto capitalization- on
word prediction and tip indicator- off
audio feedback- off
viberate on keypress- on
display trace- center
word choice window- center
speed vs accuracy- all the way to the right (all orange)
auto select word after- 10 secondes
I am just curious as to others peoples settings and how they fair. I am always needing to edit words. Sometimes everything is correct and sometimes so many words need edited it sucks. Usually I have to edit 1 or 2 words.
Also if you check the tutorial the speed vs accuracy is how long the swype tries to guess what word you are trying to creat so me figuring our cpu's are pretty good I set it all the way to the right. It hasnt caused any lag so that is a plus but I am wondering if my logic is wrong.
I left mine pretty much stop except for the length of the trail and the feedback... Mine is spot on most of the time except for the word want. Everytime I swype it I get wasn't.
That's my only gripe with swype, but I can't blame them... you have to pass over S to get to N unless you make the habit of going through Z first.
I bet all of you are now looking at your keyboards.
lol whenever i type want it puts wasn't in as well. I put speed vs accuracy all the way to the left all day today and actually it seems to have improved things.
When swype types wasn't instead of want, and our instead of or.. Only gripe I have I wish with those words the prompt box would come up..
I also hate that a lot of times it will add an R to end of words or an extra E... I also get liver and louver instead of just love...
Gonna go play with some of thee settings now
Other than that I love swype..

Oh and swype in the mytouch slide I like way better... The display trace and keyboard look thousand times better it even feels smoother..
Sent from my second wife using swype on xda app
lol I asked my wife when she was gonna be homer the other night. It added the R to the end of home there. I for test purposes have changed the speed vs accuracy all the way to off or the speed side to the left or whatever. This setting seems to be hit or freaking miss. No matter what side you have it set to it either is trying to hard and thinking of the wrong word or its not trying hard enough and its putting in the wrong word. Swype has been peing me off latly but at the same time its so much faster. If only it was smarter.
Does anyone know how to delet words from the dictionary? I couldnt find it in the settings. Id like to delet words like col that comes up when I type cool. There is a few other words id like to delet lol. I have been playing with the swype settings ever since I got swype and that was about a month ago. I think I keep playing with them because nothign really seems to work any better or any worce its just a give or take for both ends.
I've noticed that after the first few words while typing in ANY application, the keyboard for Nexus starts to lag behind the actual texting, you can feel it clearly half way through the first time, and by the 3rd line, I can type in 3 words before it registers on screen.... this is pretty problematic considering I'm still new to typing so I'm not typing that fast.
I actually like the spacing for this new keyboard, although I hate how I don't have commas, apostrophe's and question marks as a hold option on the first screen, if I wanted a keyboard that I had to press a key to access punctuation, I would've gotten an Iphone

huh? if i long hold on the period, i get those punctuation options - no need to press the ?123 key...
I sometimes have slight lag, usually a few letters behind. Its really annoying.
Same issues here...tried many roms with all wipes/reset...different keyboards...turning off haptic/sound/auto complete...flashing kernels...
I'm coming from HTC phones most recently the EVO3d and I gotta say Ive never experienced any keyboard lags ever...EVERYTHING was smooth as silk even with the heavy sense UI and bloated with apps...the HTCEVO3d ran flawlessly %99 of the time...
I switched to the s2 mainly because of the size and samsungs gorgeous displays but at the moment I am regretting it...this s2 is suppose to be one of the best phones in the world...I am severely disapointed so far though I am convinced this thing will fly once set up properly...
Im just ripping my last hairs out at the moment...I feel like Ive tried everything...right now I am in love with my MIUI rom setup and really want to stay but it is useless to me if I cant whip off any emails or texts without the keyboard stuttering...ANyone have ANY more ideas?

I have frequent short lags also. It'll hang on some letter for a short time.
I've had the same problem with the old stock keyboard on Gingerbread (sgs2) as well.
Galaxy Nexus->TapaTalk
I never have any keyboard lag in any application.. And I never have.. ever :/
Known issue where it lags in landscape - fixed in 4.0.3.
in which app does it lag? i tried browser, messaging, gtalk and google search and had zero lag.
i do remember though that when i was running stock, i'd get a slight lag in the browser when typing in the web address.
4.0.3 bigxie + franco seems to be absolutely lag-free re the keyboard, so give it a try maybe?

It is just 4.0.3 in general, not just that rom so any will work!
I have the issue in both portrait and landscape. Seems like if the app has a lot of text in it, it lags more. Search is fine for me, but gtalk, gplus, email etc lag to hell. Right now i have slight lag. I hate it because I'm also new to a virtual keyboard. Turnig off autocorrect doesnt help either. Apparently autocorrect just shut off here for no reason.
So 4.0.3 fixes this?
Don't turn off auto-correct, turn off spell checking (different feature).
Hi,
Did you ever find out what was causing this issue?
I've got the same lag issue on my new tablet.
Thanks!
Turn off gesture typing trail. It takes some time to get used to it, but it is definitely faster.

Just an FYI, especially for those who upgraded to stock ICS, Swype Beta just released a new update and it's very nice.
http://beta.swype.com/
This relieves the issue of the bouncing text screen too, so no more boggled eyeballs while swyping! Also it's much more accurate.
Did you remove the stock version first? Or, did the beta install cleanly over the stock version as an upgrade?
With the new beta you can install it along side the non beta Swype. You don't need to remove the old one first.
Thanks OP downloading now.
Edit: Seems nice so far! YES! No more bouncing! Only issue so far that simply requires a change of habit...in the old Swype if you touch the backspace button it backspaces one character, and if you hold down the back button it backspaces one word. With this new one, touch the backspace button once it backspaces one word, and holding it down sends it into continuous backspace mode. Not a huge biggie considering the improvements!
Installation was clean, easy and flawless. Just needed to disable the ROM based version as the input default after installation.
Thanks!
Installation was good just installed over the old sywpe now as far as the backspace button goes I can delete 1 word at a time

Another thing I have noticed is that it has a sort of pseudo spell checker when it does not know a word it highlights it in red. I do like the old way of backspace deleting.
Also, maybe it's just because the ROM I am using is more responsive than my old one, but the Dragon Naturally Speaking thing seems to work much better.
The only thing that I don't like is that the swyping is slightly less fast than it used to be, but still completely usable.
Stupid installer won't take my password. Says login failed/invalid password even though I know for a fact it's correct.

Yea I do miss the old delete where it deletes each word one by one not the first word then each letter one by one, it's a but confusing but does make a bit of sense

Agree the Dragon does respond faster than previous beta's. The lag on the swyping was annoying at first but I have gotten used to it.
Does not have multi language download option

I'm not impressed with this update at all. It looks nicer but they keep changing things on us. Why do they keep moving the alternate keys/symbols around!? When tapping a text field, as the keyboard pops up, the screen flashes some weird graphics glitch for a split second. The new delete method is laggy and freezes. Overall, it seems to be slower and more glitchy than the previous version.
I've been using this for a bit and while it is nicer and it fixed some things it also messes up if you go over the space bar so I now end up deleting a ton extra... if they fix this it would help a lot and also the auto correct is a bit off and they give you no option to choose for speedy or correction like before :thumbdown:

So I'm not sure how to go about describing this issue, so I'll just take a stab at it by saying that the android keyboard will not ever autocorrect "youre" to "you're". Instead it would rather correct it to "your". Yes this bothers me a lot because now I have to manually spell out that word whenever I use it. Is there some setting in the android keyboard that I'm missing that makes it understand the difference between your and you're? Some default setting perhaps? I've already cleared out my personal dictionaries for this as well as attempted to add "youre" manually to the personal dictionaries but go figure, the phone won't let that happen. The other reason I'm using the android keyboard is because ever since jellybean came out, the default lg keyboard in the phone seems to have become very slow. And by that I mean I can type faster than the key pop ups have time to pop up. Any help with this would be greatly appreciated!
Since you've done the only things I could think about, I'm sorry I can't be more helpful. My only recommendation would be trying a different keyboard, I've used Swiftkey for years and really enjoy it! You can try a free trial (1month). Otherwise just try some other free ones?
Hi. I noticed several times that either for almost no reason as I try to select my text im writing inside youtube app (dont use other apps/messaging to type much so I haven't seen it there) it just deletes it all. Mostly as im about to finish dragging the cursor to select it all or to replace the cursor. Whats happening here? WHy is it auto deleting stuff as im trying to copy or edit it? Is this my note 4 only? I noticed the clipboard is trash now too and doesn't save much of anything. I noticed the google devs have almost completely destroyed the reasons anyone would ever buy an android (starting with the recent lockdowns and other evidence they are working against the people who made them famous). Is this something I should expect to see fixed? Is it some gimmicky garbage like a swipe keyboard thats hidden (even though I thought I turned that off).. I would hate to have to switch to crapple, but when their competition is pure sh*t id rather have crap trendies love than pure sh*t the sons and daughters of the trendies love.
Please help me figure out my options here. Srry for getting off track but im sick of every android I get being semi better hardware and much worse software than before.
