This video will show you how to install the Swype keyboard on your Gnex.

As I already have it installed, not watching the video. But I wanted to add this, make sure you have 320 dpi our it will not install.

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

Unreleased Gmail 4.2 APK With Pinch-To-Zoom And More
http://www.androidpolice.com/2012/1...ed-gmail-4-2-apk-with-pinch-to-zoom-and-more/
Ok, guys. Start your engines - here's the download and instructions you need to get the leaked Gmail 4.2 up and running on your device. Keep in mind that this is an unreleased version so some things may be buggy or broken, though I haven't run into any problems.
If you somehow don't know what I'm talking about, we have the next, unreleased version of Gmail, and we're finally allowed to share it with you. Gmail 4.2 finally has pinch-to-zoom, a nifty new swipe-to-archive/delete feature, and a bunch of other things.

I partially agree.. It's nice sometimes, but other times I wish I could disable it!
Maybe a option to disable on select contacts, or an enable/disable button, that would be perfect for me.

How does this compare with SwiftKey?
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app
it's more like swype but faster. it's already pretty good but not final yet. i like it more than swiftkey because of swiping. but maybe the next swiftkey version is even better.
Even if this isn't the final version i really like it. It works just like swype but you see the word follow you as you move your finger.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda app-developers app
So far like this keyboard more then swype beta and touchpal keyboards. You must unlearn certain swype gesture's for it to work correctly but very geeked for the final version and the rest of the goodies on 4.2.

You can turn off the floating following words by the way in settings.
Does anyone know how to to punctuation quickly with it like in swype? My favorite thing about this keyboard besides it's awesomeness is that it doesn't auto add every word i manually type in like swype does.

Yeah, that's my question. I hate having to manually do punctuation again, that's what I like about Swype...
For an early version this thing is fantastic.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
I just figured it out. It's like Swift key. Hold down the period then your punctuation comes up.
just love it, also love the leakage community
Super accurate. I love how swiping in this keyboard leans towards common words (it, was, how, and, but. then etc.) more than Swype did. If I remember how Swype worked, it would often try to "overpredict" the words when I'm just trying to spell simple conjunction words and then I would have to go back and correct these simple words. Also, it's awesome that we don't have to do the "circle the letter" to double it like when spelling words with repeating letters. It seems like this keyboard just knows what word you want without having to do any special tricks.
I love being able to have the accurate "peck" typing keyboard while choosing to swipe if I wanted to on the same keyboard. Best of both world.

To all the people pointing out that flow doesn't work in Google Search (or similar areas) and claim it's okay, let me remind you that with the 4.2 keyboard, swiping is available everywhere, even where predictions aren't. Just because some searches are not standard (e.g. dotson817), the vast majority of my searches are with English words.
Either the API for swiping anywhere is locked, or SwiftKey dropped the ball. Seeing as to how long this beta took to drop, I'm guessing the latter.

Not working in form fields is one thing. But it doesn't work in comment boxes too, so replying to online forums is a pain.

gesture typing works for me in comment boxes, i just tried on a facebook comment box withing dolphin browser.
My problem with this beta is that it appears to be draining a lot of battery. It doesn't help that Flow is full of bugs (you simply cannot write the words "its" or "it's").

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.

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.
