Check this out! HTC's own version of Swype?!
Would be cool if the older devices get this update! Won't require dual core for it, if thats htc's pathetic excuse again!
maybe？
oh it's crazy i think 。。for me。it never minds

As someone thats very recently learned to love the free (beta) swype application, I'm hoping that the htc v3.0 htc trace application gets ported to our device and soon

I wonder if this will be better than Swype and SwiftKey.
i donot need it ，but thank you for sharing all the same
Hello, I've searched for swype and HTC Trace in the market, but I didn't find none of them. What is the exact name of the application to install, to have the swype active?

From memory when I installed swype you have to get it through your browser on your phone and download it from their site,though I'm sure someone will correct me if my memory is failing.

You are correct! Download the beta for Swype from here...
http://beta.swype.com/android/get/
You need to sign up to an account first though.

Thanks, but, is this something that overrides the default keyboard adding the swype function or is it a new one?
No it won't override, merely give you an alternate keyboard option. Its not obvious how to turn it on though so once installed, do the following;
In settings, go to 'languages & keyboard' and put a tick in the 'Swype' box.
Then in any text entry box, do a long press, and select 'Input Method' and choose Swype.
Nice Swype tip: It has a nice (hidden) cursor keyboard. Access it by Swyping from the bottom-left menu button, to the button to the right of it.

Some nice themed Swype keyboards here (although the cursor board is missing some keys)

Is there some keyboard that looks like the default one? (I mean the original one)
I've seen that these keyboards need to be flashed. Is there a way to come back to the stock one just in case I don't like the new one? I've seen there is some keyboard zip file here on xda, but I'm not sure of what is the stock one.
EDIT: for instance, I've found this thread. There is a so called "HTC_Keyboard_Without_Arrows"; I guess it is the stock one. Isn't it?

Hello all,
I would like to know if it is possible to modify the HTC keyboards stock dictionary. Basically I would like to force it to type "the" every time I accidentally type "Tue".
I am currently using the XDA version of the keyboard, and know that it is possible to edit the user dictionary.
Thanks.

x3, im sick of it trying to shove "OS" onto my texts instead of "is"
I think if you type the word enough it starts to use the other one.
Alright, to get to the user dictionary, pull up the keyboard and look for the microphone icon, it should also have a gear under it on that same button. long press it and this brings up the touch input settings. Scroll down to user dictionary and add or remove any words you would like. The nice thing with that is now I never text ducking to people........
Hi, I would like to know how to access HTC dictionaries too. I am currently deodexing a Gingerbread 2.3.5 ROM to try an d find the needed apk and all.
I am using a ROM which doesn't support French dictionary, spell-checking, or prediction (obviously you might say if there is no dict...) and would like to add at least this dictionary.
Could anyone point me in the right direction ? I would be grateful !
Edit : HTC_IME.apk from stock ROM did the job for me. Check my post here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1521922
Why is it when i install a different keyboard it wont override the stupid HTC keyboard?
For example, i wantto install the droid x keyboard, but when i go to activate it in the keyboard settings, it leaves the HTC keyboard as the main keyboard. Is there something im missing?
Long press in a text box and then release and press input method to change keyboards.

Try reinstalling if you get a force close. Go into Settings>Language and Keyboard and check your settings for the custom keyboard.

There's no point in getting stuff off filesharing sites when there's at least a couple free ones in the market already
The free gingerbread keyboard in the market works fine for me. After using the Nexus S since day one, it's hard to go back to a non multitouch keyboard.
How do you guys activate alternative keyboards? Mine is always popping up the default HTC kb no matter what I have enabled @ settings.
I've tried Swype, Better Keyboard and the one mentioned in this thread and none of those will activate. Already tried to reboot without luck
My chosen keyboard stays selected @ settings though even after reboot.
Thanks in advance.

open your browser or create an email or just open twitter. When you see the input box and when the kb pops up. LONG PRESS the input box. Another box should pop up with a mini menu where you would choose "input method". If you have selected keyboards to alternate from in your settings then you should see a selection of installed keyboards. GL

You do NOT have an extra keyboard called "Trace Keyboard" or whatever by long pressing. After enabling it, just slide as if you were using swype with the regular HTC keyboard.

I know what Trace is.....
After enabling it just doesn't work
Settings - keyboard and languages - touch input - trace keyboard - enable.
Then long press any text entry screen and choose "Input Method" then "Touch Input". Works fine for me.

EDIT : Okay turned out you have to enable the prediction feature for trace to work, without prediction it just ignores your trace inputs.

Sorry for the double post, but it keeps not working.

not sure mate.. try disabling and renabling it?
i had no issues getting mine working and i find it quite handy. i tap away most of the time, but in landscape mode its good for bigger words. i dont tend to use it in portrait mode much.
Hi
Just wondering if Trace can be added/flashed separately if its not included in the Rom?

Okay, thanks for checking i wasn't sure if it was meant to or not.
I've downloaded a keyboard (from abso tools to be specific), I moved the file to system/app and installed it and its still a no show.
Rebooted and still not there.
What else can I do? Thanks guys
Sent from my Inspire 4G using XDA App
You don't move files to the system/app folder and then install. Leave it on your sd card and run it from there to install. First thing I would do is go it out of there. Then see if the keyboard needs enabled in your phone's settings under Language & Keyboard. Then open up a text box to type in. For example use your text messenger. Long press in the text box, release finger, and choose Input method. Then choose your new keyboard.
Done all the above.
Downloaded again, installed from SD card. Went into setting and enabled swype, long pressed on text box, selected swype and got a force close repeatedly.

Swype is free in beta form and can be gotten from swype.com. I know nothing of the version you are installing as it can be incompatable with the Inspire. There are many versions for many phones.
I'm installing blue swype from the absolution tools.

Did you uninstall Swype and reboot before trying to install the abso keyboard?

Yes. Uninstall, reboot, then install the Abso Swype.
Where would the swype be located? I can't find it

I usually uninstall with Tibu. But you can also go to settings/applications/manage applications and uninstall there.
There wasn't a swype in there.
I'm confused lol. Ill just make do with the gingerbread stock keyboard.
Sent from my Inspire 4G using XDA App
Ok, if Swype wasn't there is not installed. I don't know what to do.
I read in another thread where someone was having a similar problem. They moved the apk to sys/app and it worked. Tried that and still a no go. Installed from SD card, rebooted and still not there. Idk what else I can do.

I've tried several different keyboards with no luck. I got then to install, but i would keep getting an update notice
If you are getting update notices for swype then all those versions are out of date. The version I am running is 3.26.92D.36178.t0. If the number is lower then it is outdated.
Did you try the swype beta from swype.com?
Let me get this straight. In order for me to use the blue swype keyboard from absolution tools, I first have to DL the beta from swype.com?
Sent from my Inspire 4G using XDA App
I didn't understand that you had to have this BLUE Keyboard. I thought you just needed swype. Since that version wasn't working I was giving you a way to get swype.
Give me the link to this blue keyboard and I will have a look at it.
Edit: I see that Absolute Tools is included in the Absolute ROM. So why would you not be asking this question over there in the ROM thread? You seem to be holding a conversation of non informational chit chit over there so why not ask this there where they can help you?
Because this isn't just about the keyboard. I've had other problems with apk files also, just used the keyboard as an example hoping the resolution would help with other issues.
Also, I've found out that none of the keyboards work anyways.
Thanks for your help though.
Sent from my Inspire 4G using XDA App
schunter, post your question in the Abso Q&A. I don't personally use swype but I had no problems getting it to install. However, I did get the update notice and it does not function as expected(swyping to type), I had to type normally for it to work.
I'll get w/the team leader to try and resolve this.
