has anyone else downloaded the legitatmate offical swype beta for the incredible? i have it on my phone, but havent really had the time to play with it since ive been pretty busy working this week. i do notice that even though i have the stock keyboard running it has seemed to make my text entry seem laggy and slow. anyone else with similar experience?

Where did you get the app? Looked for it in Market didn't see it....
 
Downloaded swypeincredible.apk to my laptop desktop, installed to my SD card via usb, opened it up in astro file manager (on my phone) but I can't install it. Astro opens it up ok just no install option. Googled up a bunch of tutorials but nothing works for me. Any help?

Edit: never mind got it...

kmo,

Swype does not install like most apps do. You must instead go to menu/Language & keyboard/Swype. That's where it's activated. Once activated, go to any application which requires a keyboard, and tap and hold the text area. A box will appear with a choice for "Input method". Tap that, and choose Swype.
 
Well got everything to install. When I try to use swype it says my trial period is over, what? I did switch the input mode too for swpe. Now what... it will tap but not swype?
 
kmo,

You may be running the previous Swype beta (which has expired). What version of the software are you running? Mine is 1.56.30.7625.t100.
 
Don't know the version uninstalled it already, non responsive. Tried two different web sites for downloading, both had the same results. "Your trial period has ended." Whatever, guess I'll wait and get this when it comes to the Market. Unless I can figure out where to get a new version....

Edit: I registered my email on the swype site, maybe I'll get a confirmation to download the new version of this soon....I was looking forward to trying this out, damn...

You might try "SlideIt". Available in the Market and works very much like "Swype" - in fact, I prefer SlideIt, which seems to accommodate for the eccentricities of my texting technique better than Swype...
 
having just downloaded the slide it keyboard, I think its pretty cool. I havnt tried the swype keyboard yet, but I do like the microphone option on the slide it keyboard. Just registered for the swype beta, and will give it a go once it opens up again

Me + :motdroidvert: = dancedroid:heart:

Yeah, the microphone option should be included with Swype as well. I expect they'll add that before the beta is finalized...
