Swype - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989

I really like Swype, but I'm getting sea sick watching my screen. Any idea how to fix this from Swype.
Screen goes up and down when typing

If you're talented like me you don't even have to look at the screen to know what you're typing

Haha i guess that is my only option. It does it more when I'm text messaging. I did try taking word suggestion off (unchecked it) but it didn't work. I think that is what is causing the up and down on the screen

Also to fix it go to the settings app then language and input then click swype settings then go to prefences then word suggestion and uncheck word suggestion and show suggested word but keep auto-correction checked if you want to keep auto correction on

Thanks for the info. I tried that and it didn't work. i have all the settings unchecked and the suggested word still continues to come out.

Actually I just found this version of Swype
https://www.dropbox.com/s/88ar62071w8ghr0/SWYPE-ICS.apk
which is version 3.26.92.39062.
This version seems to solve the problem by keeping the suggestion bar continuously active. Kinda lame, but better than constantly resizing. Also, the accent color is blue instead of that cool orange...

Yes I'm using the Samsung keypad

You have to root, (backup and) remove current version with something like Titanium backup, reboot, then install.

Can't turn swype on. Please help if you can.

When I tried to use swype after restoring from titanium backup the swype keyboard is in the language and keyboard section but the option to turn it on is not there. Not sure how to fix this problem I tried to download the beta but it won't install because swype is already pre installed. I don't know what to do to get it working.

If swype was restored as a system app. I don't think system keyboards have the toggle to enable or disable, it should already be enabled. Have you already tried long pressing the select input type.

n00b lol. it's there to allow you to change what keyboard you're using. if you know you specifically want to use one and never change it then disable the rest of them in language and input under settings and it'll disappear.

It's part of ICS. Was a little odd to see at first, but a handy way of switching keyboards. I suggest you get used to it cause future versions might still have this as part of the OS.

Just search the threads for how to root your phone. Its easy takes about 10-15 minutes not even. Then after you have root, download the app from the play store and uninstall anything you want, just be careful not to uninstall the wrong thing.

If that doesn't satisfy you download the stock jelly bean free from play store or download swift key for some dough. Those are the options.

Aosp keyboard with 5 rows (numbers)

This is not my work I will not support or post links to anything but the original post.
While browsing through countless threads one thing I see often is requests for samsungs keyboard on aosp roms. Well that most likely won't happen but this just might be what you are looking for. They are from the lg lineup. One is a simple install apk the other requires a build.prop mod.

Hacker's keyboard gives you a full keyboard, including function keys (F1, F2, etc.), escape, arrow keys (very useful when fixing mistakes in emails and texts.
It's also superb for DOS Box and other emulators. There are dictionaries for most languages. Duolingo takes great advantage of these dictionaries. The auto word suggestions speed up your typing and learning, by also introducing words with similar spelling not actually a part of the lesson.
Not trying to hijack the thread. Just stating my opinion on an alternative keyboard.

It does not work that way. Each rom has a unique build.prop so you can not use on from anither rom.

I'm on liquid and I thought I was tired of the Google keypad...mainly for lacking the number row.
I tried swift key...which was OK. Extremely similar to go keyboard. Which is ok and I like the theme ability.
Then I tried the LG key board....
I ran back to the Google keyboard...I despise that lg keyboard. And how on earth do they justify it being a 57MB app??????? I've never liked lg keyboards that much though. Always seem to lag. Even going back to non smart phones.

Hey Jlmancuso, I got the LG G3 kb working mostly ok except the handwriting part. Whenever I try to use handwriting it says that it needs to download something and I select English but it never downloads it. Can you let me know how you got that working? Thanks.

What rom are you using it on? I have been busy working on TW 4.4.2 which does not work with the keyboards. When I put it on my aosp rom it worked without any issues. I will have to install the rom you are using and see what I can figure out.
