Swype

AmI the only one havinga problem with swype? Notice how it doesn't always space between words? And it isn't as accurate asI am used to. Swype was way better on the epic whichI don't understand. What have they done.

Go to settings and tweak the options a little bit. they're a little different than the usual swype.

My first few hours with it was insane. I couldn't type on it at all. Somehow it fixed itself and now it's back to normal.

I did make some changes in the settings and that might have been what fixed it.

There aren't many options. I adjusted the accuracy setting but it still does it.

It seems to be working better the more I use it as I have had the same problems. it must be a program that learns as it gets more info.

I switched to the Nexus swype and it works good. Plus I like the black and blue.

I noticed this too, it definitely doesn't space after every word.

It isn't in the market. Search for sprint nexus s swype apk or system dump. Install it as a normal app.

Since Swype is pre-installed, it says it can't install over itself.

If somebody haven't tried Swiftkey X yet, try it. Its way better and faster than swype IMHO.

Swype Bug
It looks like there is an issue with automatic spacing in between and word and a single letter word. So every time you type something like "hey I" it ends up "heyi"
Is everyone seeing this problem? Anyone have a way to fix this?
I would like to install the Swype beta i was using on my CM Evo 4G but I am guessing there is no way to do that until i can uninstall the factory Swype?

[APP] Android 4.2 Keyboard old version

Here is a link to the android 4.2 keyboard. It has gesture typing/ swype capabilities. According to DroidLife they think it's an earlier build than what was shown off by Google the other day. It's not quite as polished but nonetheless it's pretty neat. I like the aosp keyboard layout better than the swype layout, but I love the swype capabilities so this keyboard is awesome. Give it a try.
All thanks to DroidLife for putting this up for grabs! and of course Google for developing it!

Thanks, it works great! Swype has some competition

I haven't tried the zip, but you should be able to do it either way. The problem mentioned on the site has to do with whether the ROM you are running has the stock android keyboard as an option. If it does you just need to clear data for the the stock keyboard and delete it from /system/app before installing the new 4.2 keyboard in /system/app.
edit:^^^What he said. For our phone just installing it like a normal 3rd party app will work.

Now here's the thing I've never done anything with apk files so can someone walk me through how exactly to do it? Would be very much appreciated.

Ignore most of that. I made it more complicated than necessary. It pertains mostly to nexus devices (might be necessary on some AOSP based ROMs). If you really want a better explanation, I was getting that info. from android police.
http://www.androidpolice.com/2012/1...d-4-2-keyboard-with-gesture-typing-right-now/
What Mattix said is right. Just download the apk, make sure installing 3rd party apps is allowed, and then just click on the file and then click install.

Best keyboard ever. no joke

Agreed. I love not needing to do the loop for a double letter combination like in swype. It just knows.

Well do I just put it on my sd card, and then go to the file explorer? Or?

You can download it on your phone/ transfer it from your computer to wherever you want it saved. Then yes you can use a file explorer to find it, tap on it, and install it. Although, if you download it directly to your phone you can click on it from the notification bar.

I love TouchPal. Replaced swype for me. Very quick and very good. Swype is a little better at guessing words but always lags.

It would be nice but this isn't possible. The Samsung keyboard requires the touchwiz framework to function.
Sent from my GT-N7105 using xda premium

This was done on the original Note. I'll take a look at that one and see if it can be done.

I want this as well. Missing the one handed operation. Paid for thumbs keyboard as a workaround now.

But what if you have touchwiz already?

All I really miss is the dedicated top row to number keys. If someone could hack that into the AOSP keyboard that would be pretty cool

I did, and even bought it for the advanced customizing features but I couldn't come up with a set-up that felt quite like stock I'll try it again, but I spent a good hour configuring it last time.

bump, this would be perfect. only can someone make it compatible for n7105 as well?

[APP] MyScript Stylus Keyboard

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.visionobjects.stylusmobile.v3_2_store
Saw this on Android Police and I love it so far. If you used the spen board switcher and it was always finicky with the Samsung keyboard, you won't have that problem with this. Plus the gestures and such work a lot better. Editing a sentence works a lot better too since you can scroll through your whole input stream.
Enjoy!

Yes but I personally find the TW keyboard to be absolutely horrendous and non-dpi change friendly. After using this keyboard (and Touchpal) I don't want to be anywhere near the stock tw keyboard haha

Thanks. Iwas looking for something like this. How do I set it up so it activates only when I pull my stylus out?

i just can't get the keyboard to change automatically. i read somewhere that the at&t phones have this issue! I installed CM S Pen Add-on and Notebuddy also. Set default to AOSP keyboard and alternative to MyScript Stylus. In SPenBoard Switcher, the setting is fixed. the custom apps launch with notebuddy, but I don't want MyScript Stylus keyboard options, I need the keyboard to change automatically based on my stylus status. I am just about to give up and manually switch keyboards! But this app is great though.

i just use tasker to switch my keyboard based on the application open... it works great for me.
