Questionnaire for Swype lovers:
1. Do you only like using one hand/finger to type (is this why swype is the laziest or best way to you?)
2. Have you used an iphone or ipod touch keyboard and what is your opinion of it?
3. Is this the best keyboard for very fast typers?
4. Is this the most useful one for the EVO?
1. Using one finger is nice, but I think the amount of accuracy needed for swype is what makes it the best for me. You can be way off with where you draw on the keyboard and still get most words right. Most other keyboards require you to be more accurate with letters or count on the predictions to be right when you make mistakes. Holding the phone with one hand tends to be a better way to use the phone in portrait mode, as you're usually using one finger to navigate through the OS anyways.
2. iphone keyboards are quite nice, one of the touch screen keyboards that gives you a good idea of what key you hit, one of the things that really cuts down on your errors.
3. I believe for most people it is. There are plenty of people who are just really good at touch screen keyboards, and the pop-up box in Swype does get in the way sometimes, possibly slowing you down if you type really fast. The number keyboard isn't the best one out there either. Some words I continually mess up, like I always get "wasn't" when I try to type "want", it annoys the crap out of me. But in general, you can type very quickly on Swype without that much practice.
4. Hard to say it is the most useful when we're still waiting for that speech-to-text button.
Swype definitely makes a great keyboard, as functional as it is, it's also fun to do and has a bit of that wow factor.
1. Do you only like using one hand/finger to type (is this why swype is the laziest or best way to you?) Personally I do text with my thumb only, even before swype. That just makes it easier for me.
2. Have you used an iphone or ipod touch keyboard and what is your opinion of it? I had the original iphone for years, didnt do alot of texting because it wasnt free like my evo, the keypad was pretty functional that I found till my screen cracked and screwed up the touch sensing a bit.
3. Is this the best keyboard for very fast typers? I like to think Im a fairly quick type, at least in standard orientation, landscape I slow down a bit. I type faster with swype then I got voice to text.
4. Is this the most useful one for the EVO? That Ive found, personally, yes.

Try this. Instead of just tapping away.
After you click a letter pops up. If its not your letter move your finger til it is..
If swipe had VTT id switch perm
I hate Swype.
I use TouchPal, WinMo style.
I like it because with a bit of practice I can type without hardly looking at my phone. Having good spelling is beneficial.

1. Do you only like using one hand/finger to type (is this why swype is the laziest or best way to you?)
I usually only use one thumb if I'm being quick. For a long message, I hold the phone with my left and swipe with my right pointer finger.
2. Have you used an iphone or ipod touch keyboard and what is your opinion of it?
I have not.
3. Is this the best keyboard for very fast typers?
From what I've heard, it is. It even has some prediction abilities, but you don't get to use them much when swiping. There's another 'fast keyboard' that is now out, SwiftKey. If you only like touch typing, this thing is great. It learns your speech patterns over time and predicts the entire next word. It's supposed to be creepy how well it works.
4. Is this the most useful one for the EVO?
I think it is.
While I don't have Swype (unfortunately ) I use ShapeWriter which is essentially the same thing. I like being able to effectively and quickly text with one hand. I find it faster than the stock keyboard+smart keyboard mainly because I'm a long time hard keyboard user and the lack of (stock) multitouch on the Evo is a blower. And I've used the iPhone/iPod Touch keyboard and think they're really good, actually.
I vastly dislike Swype.
Grab the SwiftKey beta off the Android Market, let it rifle through your text messages, and then it predicts what you are going to say before you even say it. I've been using it since yesterday afternoon and stats say it has saved me 1320 keystrokes, making me 22% more efficient and the number keeps going up.
I tried Swype...even forced myself to like it, but I just couldn't get used to it. I owned the iPhone 3G and 3G and I have to admit that the QWERTY keyboard was top-notch.
Currently I switch between the HTC keyboard and the Droid X keyboard that is located here.
I'm getting better at using swype, and like it a lot so far. Swiftkey is amazing though, probably the best normal keyboard i've used. I'm still debating on which one I like better myself. Swiftkeys prediction is absolutely amazing.
If you don't like swype I'd go with swiftkey in a heartbeat
I *LOVE* Swype & a huge pimper of it. I'm a fast touch typer & can do pretty well with Swype. I love it. I can really get going on Swype.

No problem. I actually have been using the portrait keyboard now whereas I had to use the landscape all the time before.
I didn't have many SMS messages for it to go through since I do everything through Google Voice but it is learning my texting style quickly.

2. I think the iphone keyboard is probably the best one if you're typing each key individually.
3. I'm a fast typist on a laptop but I'm not a natural on a virtual keyboard (my old phone was a very old Q). Swype allows me to type fast with a minimum of typos.
4.Well, for me it is.
Two things about Swype: you need to know the keyboard (no hunting and pecking) and you need to know how to spell otherwise you get nonsense.

i used shapewriter and liked it. i used swype for a while and liked it. i have migrated to UltraKeyboard becuase i'm sick of the betaGames that Swype is playing.
for most communication based input, these have become my preferred type of keyboard. for things that require non dictionary type text (usernames, passwords, etc) then i prefer to use the traditional keyboard.
Questionnaire for Swype lovers:
1. Do you only like using one hand/finger to type (is this why swype is the laziest or best way to you?)
... once accustomed to the alternate keyboard, i feel quicker and smoother at inputing text.
2. Have you used an iphone or ipod touch keyboard and what is your opinion of it?
... no.
3. Is this the best keyboard for very fast typers?
... its different like using a pencil in standard font vs cursive with a nice smooth gel pen. i can say this....when i first tried this type keyboard..i didn't like it. took me a bit.
4. Is this the most useful one for the EVO?
... personal preference would dictate that.
1. Yes I do
2. Just left an iPhone and while its onscreen keyboard is great just trailing my finger on a screen seems faster
3. I wouldn't say you type on it you swype lol
4. So far after using it I haven't used the htc ime mod one since
I tried Swype beta and after a week of use, I still was not completely impressed. I recently tried out SwiftKey, and I think the prediction capabilities on that is downright scary. I'm probably going to purchase SwiftKey when my trial runs out.
It all depends on the person, so find one of the many keyboards out there and text until your thumbs fall off!
I prefer Ultra Keyboard. It has a "trace" option that is similar to swype but the entire keyboard is customizable - skins, fonts, colors, etc. It has a dictionary, translator, taskbar with icons, and all sorts of stuff. I cant find anything ti is lacking.
I've never been a fan of Swype.....
XT9 all the way
I had some teething issues with the EVO keyboard at first, it was my first on-screen keyboard experience and not quite as painless as I was hoping for. This and other small things like not being able to easily dismiss the suggestion bar led me to try out other keyboards. After going through all of them, Smart Keyboard Pro, SwiftKey, Swype, HTC_IME mod, I still find myself returning to stock. Despite its occasional shortcomings, it continually feels the most responsive, least laggy, and provides the best prediction compared to everything else. Its layout and look and feel are also great and fit the phone well, something I value since it's easy to make Android look haphazard and HTC has done a good job of avoiding that and keeping the UI consistent. Other features like the arrow keys I've found to be invaluable and miss them greatly when they're not present front and center. Even Swype, after lots of trials and giving it plenty of time, did not really significantly improve things. I made less of one type of error, but just more of another type.
In the end, I'm back to stock, so I have to give HTC credit for delivering a nice looking and very well-refined keyboard. If I could just figure out how to EASILY dismiss the suggestion bar without adding a new word to the dictionary (just tapping where my cursor is doesn't really do it), I'd probably be completely satisfied.
Well coming from an Iphone I can definitely say the stock keyboard sucks. I've been using swype and have been very pleased so far. I believe the more you use it the better it gets at predicting your text. To me its much faster and less finger cramping to just swipe one finger across the screen.
stocks fine for me but i have been using the Swiftkey beta i have to say im pretty impressed !
I either Swype it or just go with the stock input. I don't find it to be as bad as some make it out to be.
where can i get swype newest release ??
Usually just switch between Stock and the Droid-X keyboard. Tried Swype and couldn't get the "feel" for it. Luckily it was free
Swype
I avoided Swype for awhile, thinking that I could never get accoustomed to typing with it. So I tried the MotoX multi-touch keyboard, stock android keyboard, and a few others, but kept returning to stock Sense. It was the easiest and most accurate standard keyboard.
After changing to Swype, the search is over. Not sure if I have the newest version, but I can attest that the (1.56.30.7625) works perfectly across a bunch of roms. This is really the only way to go on a mobile device.
I wish I could tell you were I got the .apk of this version (its not the *t100), but I cant find it for the life of me. Try searching Swype in the Apps & Themes forum.
I wouldn't use my gfs Evo until she put Swype on it. Now I'll help her root.
Froyo stock keyboard!
Is Swype, in general, still in the beta phase?
I'm using the white skin on smart keyboard pro. The Droid X Multitouch keyboard is by far the BEST that i've used thus far, but alas, it's not working on Froyo yet. Once that's ported to Froyo I'll be on top of that one.
i switch between stock and swype. dont like swiftkey
Swype is one of those technologies that in ten years we will look back and laugh at how stupid and primitive T9 prediction was in comparison. It is undeniably a "killer app" for smartphone input.
Using the input on my iPad feels like caveman trying to create fire in comparison to the sophistication of Swype on my Android phone.
Swype is the way to go...
I first tried Swype on my Touch Pro's with Energy rom and i could not help but be delighted with the typing experience. Swype on my Evo was a must. Since the size on the screen allows for a very accurate path, and the predictive capabilities are way above anything else that I tried.
Is Swype Available?
I've looked for Swype, and all I can find is a beta that is no longer available. Can someone point me in the right direction?

Head over to the EVO Apps board and download one of the many uploaded .apks.
I've tried Swype and the Droid X keyboard and I prefer the stock one. I think the Droid one has better responsiveness, but the HTC one has way better prediction and I like being able to longpress keys for numbers and symbols.

How does swype work so well for you guys. I feel like it is so slow because you can only use one finger at a time. On the stock keyboard I can use both thumbs so its so much faster

I have been on the same boat as you. I used to have an iPhone and can honestly say that the iPhone KB is the best on screen KB to date.
I have tried every alternative: smart KB pro, Swype, Stock, Droid X keyboard, AOSP android KB, they all had problems.
Swype was really cool, but I prefer two hand typing, and coudn't use swype, but I can easily see how others like it.
Stock HTC: yes it looks nicer than the plain blakc one on android but HTC did a very poor job, The KB is wayyyyy to high, and all the keys are touching each other. Instead of wider keys that take up less screen height. Plus its not as responsive.
Stock AOSP: black and ugly
Droid X: Very nice, great feel, fast, and has an option to hide corrections.
I have found the BEST KB IMO
better keyboard plus "Ultra KB Hero theme" it is a hero skin that looks almost identical to the Stock KB, and is muchh faster than stock. Plus the auto correction is great and lets you add custom words. And no arrows on the bottom.

I find it's just almost an ease of use. I don't mind using the stock, and sometimes I just go back for no reason. But swype just seems efficient ... in the beginning I wasn't really enjoying it, didn't think it was that big of a deal. But a couple days of use and it just started making sense. You get the occasional word that isn't anywhere near what you were trying to type, but I think that happens more often than not because you're getting your swype on and just moving so fast you overshoot or what have you.
But I still feel like I can pump out a fast enough message on the stock, which some people don't seem to feel the same way. Both work more than fine for me.
Ive been using Swiftkey for a few days now and its definitely the best Virtual Keyboard I have used for Android and it can also correct your Physical Keyboard inputs as well. I can't think of any other keyboard that offers Virtual and Physical auto-correction better than Swiftkey.
There is a paid version and a beta in the marketplace, you should definitely give the free Beta a try. The G2 already gives the One-Two punch of having the best of both worlds, its only just that it has the One-Two punch for software as well .
I tried it and didn't like it personally. However I found HTC_IME Mod keyboard to work better. I'm not a big fan of Swype either.
Swype is "too" smart for me sometime lol...To be specific, the auto suggestion and completion is junk. The Numbers and symbols layout are not the best.
Anyway, does anyone know how to update Swype version? I tried to download and install the lastest version to see any improvements but haven't got successful
It autocorrects the physical keyboard too? Does it do word suggestion for the physical keyboard?
Edit: wow it does auto correct the physical keyboard also. It be nice if someone couple make this work with the stock or other sense like imd mod soft keyboard.

I agree, if I could combine the Physical Keyboard Auto-Correction and Multitouch from Swiftkey with HTC_IME it would be the perfect keyboard.
actually..better keyboard provides auto correction and word suggestions for the physical keyboard as well. search for it from the market..its a pretty decent app..and quite accurate as well

i tried swift and while i liked the auto correct on the physical keyboard it annoyed the hell out of me when i was trying to type in spanish.. so i ended taking it out.. maybe ill purchase the full version in the future so i could have more than one language pack
Just wanted to share some experiences with software keyboards, I've certainly tried a few and depending on the circumstance suggest the following:
If you're someone that likes using your thumbs to type, then Thumb Keyboard is an excellent one:
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.beansoft.keyboardplus
If you're more of a one handed user (such as commuting and having to use a hand to hold on to something) then you can't beat Swype:
http://www.swype.com/
And if you're someone that holds the phone with one hand and does the clickety-clack with with the other, then I suggest Swiftkey X with it's great prediction engine is your best bet:
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.touchtype.swiftkey.phone.trial
Finally, if you don't necessarily fall into a particular preference as listed there's FlexT9 that's a 4-in-1 piece of code (Speak, Trace, Write or Tap) so you can get your pick of the litter in one product:
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.nuance.flext9.input
** Swype is in a little bit of a funky state, you have to sign-up for their Beta program to get it (which means free). They were bought by Nuance and a recent update added the Dragon Dictation engine to the software. It'll be interesting to see if/how Nuance deals with having 2 keyboard products (Swype and FlexT9).
I like the Gingerbread Keyboard, specifically because it allows use different languages.
Unfortunately OEMs remove most languages from stock rom, so I'm forced use an app for that:
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.moo.android.inputmethod.latin.free
I've tried Go Keyboard and ICS Keyboard, but they don't feel right, Go Keyboard is way to big on the screen and ICS doesn't have a nice GB's language switch by swiping sideways space bar.
swype
So, Does anyone actually use swype is it good or what? I find my accuracy is horrid on the GB keyboard.
I've gotten pretty good at Swyping, but I still can't do it on a bumpy car ride with any sort of reliability. I'm using a customized theme and I love it.

I love Swype! To make it usable for me since I rush when I swype I have to turn the prediction accuracy up (its an option in the swype options) but after that its awesome!
I've been a Swype user since Windows Mobile 6.0 on my Xperia X1, and I'm absolutely stuck now. I ONLY ever use my phone with one hand and Swype with my thumb in portrait mode (I always have auto-rotate disabled), but I can type almost as quickly as on a full keyboard on a laptop (albeit with a few extra errors =) ). It took some months (maybe a year =P) before I got really really comfortable with it, but now, no other keyboards will do for me! I'm completely conditioned. The Swyping shortcuts for everything from punctuation to all caps to cut/paste are indispensable. I'm nervous that it's in beta, because whenever they finally make a product and start selling it, no matter what they charge I WILL pay =)
I might just have to try it. I'm giving the lgkeyboard a chance.. its spaced a lot nicer but has its flaws for sure

I've been using SwiftKey for about six months and love the predictive text. It works great!
Except for one huge problem. It does not "learn" about 2/3 of the custom words I use. When I type a word, such as "CZ Eddie" or things with apostrophe's, it does not bring up that word in the top left or top middle "predictive" field where I should be able to click it to remember that word in the future. It won't do this with a lot of things I type.
So, I need a different predictive text keyboard app that will remember ALL of my custom words, etc. Not just "some of them". Any suggestions?

Thanks, I'll check it out as soon as my phone gets back from JTAG repair.
Another thing I liked about SwiftKey is it remembers me from ROM to ROM, since it syncs up via my Androids gmail account. So it doesn't have to re-learn things all over again.
Just really sucks that I can't manually add my favorite words to its dictionairy.
If you go under settings and to personalization you can have it learn the way you type. If you use a lot of the words that you wish to add to your dictionary just tap learn from SMS. I have been using this keyboard for well over 2 years and that seems to work great for me. Hope that helps!

Here is a link to another keyboard that I am trying out for fun. Seems pretty good so far and the predictions are pretty spot on. Here is the link if you want to give it a shot!

At&t GS3
I use Thumb Keyboard for my GS3.
It is an amazing keyboard that makes typing so much faster and easier.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.beansoft.keyboardplus&hl=en
It's on sale now for half price. Best app I have purchased to date. Read some reviews, watch some vids and ask around about it if you need to.
Let us know if you check it out. I guarantee you won't use anything else after using it for a few hours or so.
There is so much customizing you can do with it also. Size of keys, height of keyboard and it comes with some really nice themes.
Good luck!
I love SwiftKey but one of my pet peeves is that the prediction boxes disappeared in certain apps like google search and others. It was quite annoying. Anyway, I was notified that the new beta of SwiftKey Flow has the predictions enabled in a lot more places. You can disable the swipe part if you like and it functions exactly like the original SwiftKey.
I dunno the last time I used I used swift key flow it wasn't very good(couldn't use it in half the apps or places I can with swift key 3.)
I did notice that predictions with SwiftKey 3 seem to be occurring less and less and that the app isn't working in most fields either. I like it more than the Swype beta keyboard as I still get some time of predictive text more so than Swype

Can back up your dictionary too now.
I've tried every keyboard (xcept the Jellybean one) and keep coming back to SwiftKey because it's just overall better for my type of typing, IMO.
One thing I liked about one of the other keyboards was that it had the option to split up the left & right keys with different colors.
But while some of the other keyboards let me add things to their dictionary (which I like) their predictive text sucks in comparison to Swiftkey (for my typing anyways).
Like I'm on Swiftkey Beta now, just to see if it was any better. And I typed in "UFC" in all caps. And it did not give me the option to add it to my dictionary. WTF.
Of the others, ThumbKey was my second favorite. But only for the GUI.
I've settled on Swiftkey Flow and Kii, both of them still in beta. They are both great apps, but I am leaning more toward Kii. You can get a lot of different skins for Kii as well

SwiftKey Flow is the real deal. I don't use the flow/gesture typing method but I like Flow better than the standard SwiftKey. The prediction boxes are available almost everywhere unlike the original SwiftKey where the boxes disappear in places where they would be invaluable.

Just tried Kii, and the verdict is in- it Kiicks ass! By far the best keyboard out there, allows more customization options than all the other keyboards. This is a must have. And it's free. Crazy good app name drop friend!
Swype is the best keyboard I've used yet. The flow and predict works very well.
If SwiftKey didn't have a good auto-correct engine, it would probably be an awful keyboard layout to use. The letters are too cluttered together. As for SwiftKey Flow, I feel the Android 4.2 keyboard and Swype 1.4 Beta are superior auto-correct when swiping on the keyboard.

I have to agree for swype typing nothing beats swype beta once they get a black theme in there solid black no one else will disagree. I pick my keyboard for how well it fixes all my horrible mistakes. Nothing tops swype though JB keyboard comes in a close 2nd. It was almost a winner in my book essp because you can theme it your self unlike swype which they made it impossible to theme (as far as I know I know I can't do it)
But the other ones swiftkey just had no idea what I was typing to type, and kiki I dunno hated that keyboard bad.
If you never tried swype i can say honestly its worth a try. I can also say the JB keyboard is bad ass also and deff good.
I have no choice I pick the best speller and grammar fixer. Swype could be a lot better but so could lots of things.
Its silly to me how these companys have millions of dollars and employes but they can't figure out a simple friken think like a solid black theme. Wtf? what kinda crappy weed are they smoking they come up with a bright neon red keyboard but not black or white. HAHAHHA
