Okay, first off, this is based off the new Swype Trial Release from the TMobile MyTouch 3G.
I removed everything but the English QWERTY boards, and optimized all the PNGs to be half the size but similar quality.
Good news? The APK went from 5584 KB to 1281 KB. <

Looking forward to a new skin the current one is pretty ugly on our heros

I take it this is the same version you released in the first Swype thread just with the changes you mentioned.
yes, it is the newest version with the changes. only english qwerty.

Something without blue that kills it.
I would like one that resembles the stock hero keyboard from sense ui. While it is not the best keyboard i have ever used i still like the look of it.
That or maybe just something that flows with our sense UI a little better the skin now looks like it doesn't belong on our phones
wow lol you know your wireless connection is bad when it takes 45 seconds to a minute to download a 1.2mb apk. Stupid UMiami wireless has been weird lately
This version is more stable than the other one which kept FCing whenever I would hold down a key. Great job.
I had to remove the old Swipe via the Manage Applications settings, but it finally installed and works like a charm.
Thanks!

Lol, I was just about to post that you MUST un-install any previous versions of Swype first.
As for skinning, I made some for Fingerkeyboard back when I was into WM. You are more than welcome to use anything from those if you want.
I was going to try to skin Swype but I honestly don't have time (and my wife is ready to shoot me for the amount of time I spend on here as it is).
Thanks for optimizing this for us. Looking forward to your future work!

something like this?
or the easiest route would be for me to just remove the blue buttons like so
it's going to be a lot of work, so i guess i'll wait and see if this board has a demand for it before proceeding further.
penny for your thoughts xda?
Removing the blue already makes it look better.
The pic you posted above with colors close to what we have now was nice as well.
cant wait to see what you do.
dont know if this is on the right place if not mods are welcome to move it..
anyways an xda member here on the forums managed to customize the swype keyboard color and traceline.. now i tried installing it but unfortunately i got the screen size error because it was made for a g1
now my question is if anyone here can customize the swype.apk for our evos to a black keyboard with a red trace line...
i know im not the only that would like a customized black and red swype to match our evo's
it would be much appreciated
Another forum pumped out a black/red one with a red line an XDA member posted it here... I'm just saying I am beyond 3 steps away from having any credit for this. Based on the 1.56 and it is high res and works stupendously.
wow thanks.. i'll try it on my evo.. i know someone posted one before but i got a screen size error on my evo.. i'll try this one.. i appreciate it
EDIT: IT WORKED! wow thank you so much! i really like it! i think it matches the evo cuz of the colors thanks again.. and thanks to the person that made it
Sweet. Thanks for the link. I was looking for this.
Looks awesome. Thanks for the link.
I tried it out but it looks blurred. I had to switch back to the regular bc I was getting a headache lol.
Looks very kool but i do have to agree that its kinda blurry
whats up with the warning when u enable the swype keyboard?
it can save your cc numbers and texts in their database?
that's kinda weird. i felt like i was installing a trojan.

That is a standard Android warning that you get when installing any 3rd party keyboard. It is not exclusive to Swype, it is warning you of what could potentially happen if a source is untrusted.
can we get this updated with the newest version and also a version that is for the EVO .. the one above i tried on the EVO but the buttons are grainy looking .. not sharp
Doesnt work..said swype version needs to b upgraded
It didn't work for me either. I think I'll just stick to the vanilla version for now.
I got excited for nothing lol. I'll stick with the droid x red/black keyboard. That red swype only let's you type no swype AND it's blurry but that's okay I know you'll come around with one that works better.

This uses Metamorph to theme the current Swype. There's a black kb with red trace, gl
edit: If you don't have the latest ota Swype you can get it from a stock rom and adb push it to your phone.
I know there are several themed Swypes out there but what I'm really wanting is an all black (white text) theme with no color to them like the ones in the "Themed Swype" thread. Basically a Swype that looks much like the black themed multi-touch keyboard in the "Modified Droid X Keyboard by WJD" thread.
Have you tried asking him to do it?
thats where i would put a request....
Ill pass the word and see what he can do
If you don't mind the style of the Serenity theme, the themed keyboard should have all black keys and white tracer..Bad news, won't be out till next update probably.
This is a early shot of the red one, the white version will get rid of all red accents and keep black keys.

That would be great. I didn't want to just assume you would want to make a theme just for me so I decided to just post a new thread for it so anyone else could see it, I'd be extremely surprised if I'm the only one who wants an all black theme and didn't know if someone somewhere already had one made.
no worries, most of the stuff I do is based off a single request
is this what were going for?

That looks awesome actually, and nothing in that is colored at all? no highlighting, effects, etc?
anyone find it ironic that I am the guy who made the keyboard and I asked above if he asked him (which was me) lol

Haha well since I had mentioned both the black multitouch keyboard and the themed swype keyboards and eventually both you and bad4u replied I wasn't sure who was doing what. I did want to say though that I absolutely love and am using your black multitouch keyboard, I am just too used to swype to be able to switch completely.
Could you possibly make a swype themed similarly as well? I don't mean to insult bad4u's work at all as his pictured above looks awesome as well, but I would definitely entertain the option of having my multitouch and swype keyboards match if it isn't too much trouble.
I really don't know how much work goes into doing this so I already appreciate the time you both have already taken to release what is already available.

Did you actually get this themed or is that just an example? I'm itching for a nice black Swype (and lock screen sliders too, but that's another thread =) )
damn now im confused, i tought you were both talking about me. lol
im working on the swype right now, that was just a screen shot.
rough black and white is now up, same install method, still need to do the buttons in the edit menu but might not be able to get to it this weekend. All main keyboards are good to go.
My girlfriend just got the sidekick 4g and while playing around with it, I fell in love with the damn UI it uses. I know its pretty much a modded TW interface. Just curious if anyone else has looked at it and played with it and ended up liking it. I would love to see some type of port, tho I know very unlikely. And no "If you like TW then get the sidekick!!!!" comments, they are just pointless. The sidekick just doesn't have all the hardware I want. Tho I do miss the sidekick keyboard. Best damn physical keyboard I have ever used. RIP Danger. lol
Ninja Edit: Crap, I just noticed I posted in the wrong sub forum, If a MOD sees this, could you please relocate it.
So I am running the MIUI Rom and loving it but I have a question that hopefully one of you can answer. I tend to gravitate towards red themes and found a theme that I love called NeonRT. Problem is, there is a language issue in a specific app, and unfortunately it is Gmail. The body of the messages are in some rubbish. Now I realize there may be nothing one can do but does anyone know how to fix this at a programming level. I am decent with PCs but know squat about programming. Any help or advice is appreciated, Thanks!
And if anyone knows of another red theme out there, feel free to throw it up. I did find a theme called Red Crystal but prefer the icons and general layout of the NeonRT theme much better. Again, thanks and take care.
i have ran the neonBT GT and RT and finally stuck with the bleu one, but Gmail works great on all of them.
Your right they are nice looking...the crystal one is just to plain for my liking.
Bit I'm sure you could find different icons in a icon pack and use a different launcher. Like I'm on infused and running adw launcher ex and have the zoo York red icon pack but then have a theme foe the rom and can change just the icon instead of the whole theme but I don't know anything about miui at all so i don't know how it all works with it.

Good to know this though as I might go back to the other theme with the funky letters lol..
