[Q] Swiftkey 3 and Jelly Bean 4.1.1 - HTC One S

I read around that if you use alternative keyboards on the lastest JB release,like the swiftkey 3, every time you switch off and on the phone you have to re-select it.
Can please anybody confirm? Both fastboot on and off.
Thanks!

No SwiftKey remains on when you turn your phone off and on again.

Nope, once you select SwiftKey as your keyboard, it stays. Make sure your setting is correct.

Swype keyboard small

Has anyone had problems with the Swype keyboard? Mine is smaller than normal.
Edit: I tired uploading a screenshot but I'm having issues with my phone
Sent from my HTC One X using XDA
This appears to be an issues once you reboot the phone.
A temporary fix right now is to disable and then enable Swype again.
I'll post it on the swype forums and let them know

Yeah that was working for me, but doesn't work anymore after a second reboot. I am getting used to the smaller keyboard now. I like being able to see more of the screen.
I'm having the same problem with my Swype keyboard. After every reboot, it becomes extremely small and unusable. The only way I can get it back to normal is by reinstalling it. Anyone else have a better solution?

Disabling swype, switching back to one of the other keyboards and then switching back to Swype seems to work for me.
Rotating the screen has worked for me...

Btw, The Original HTC Keyboard has Swype Built into it.
Found that out the other day.
Thanks that works perfectly and is so simple

Yeah, except it seems to be missing some features like swyping punction to the space bar to insert question marks and exclamations and swyping up for capital letters. I've gotten so used to those that I go to do it and it doesn't work on the HTC keyboard.
Found this thread on the swype forums: http://forum.swype.com/showthread.p...-Error-This-screen-size-is-not-supported-quot
They need help reproducing the bug.
When you rotate it and go back it still is smaller then usual

Does anyone have issues with the wallpaper randomly reverting back to the stock ICS wallpaper?
I can't seem to keep my wallpaper on my home screen for very long.

Has anyone figured out what causes the keyboard to stop working in messaging?
I can hit the first letter, and the keyboard will bring up predictions for what I press, but it won't enter any text into the field.
To fix it, I have to back out of the conversation and return to it to be able to type again.
It does it with all keyboards, too.
I can't exactly figure out what causes it to stop working. Before I thought it was locking the phone in the middle of typing, because it would sometimes be unresponsive after unlocking, but I've also had it be fine after unlocking, and I've also had it stop responding in the middle of me typing.
That's the only issue I've had with AKOP, apart from the wifi toggling thing, but that's a well-known bug.

How can I stop the ROM from automatically downloading my apps. I would rather use TiBu.

I use Swiftkey X, but it will do it with the stock keyboard as well. It doesn't seem to be a problem with the keyboards, since they'll load up predictions for whichever button I press, but it just won't actually type in the field.

Ooo I think I know what you men because I too have had these little annoyances before.... what I did when it started was kill EVERYTHING LOL yes literally kill all of the things... I even killed the keyboard/sms process since that's where it happened most at. After doing that my issue was usually fixed. Also found that I just type too fast sometimes.... it honestly can b a number of things actually, let me know how this works.

Sucks to hear, i'll hold off for now
I have been getting a little less battery life with ics...but nothing shocking. I get anywhere from 10 to 16 hours...but that is the same I have been getting with gb...even froyo. I do a lot of reading and listening to the radio...and I always have a charger near by for those occasions when the battery gulps instead of sips.
OK, maybe a dumb question. Coming from GB Roms, I am use to "My Files". On this ROM where do I find something that works the same, or what is the format?

smart stay

OK guys I am on ICS 4.2F-6B on my skyrocket, the smart stay app will not open and says the beta testing is over...any ideas how I can get this to work? Also the screen keeps flashing no front camera detected, however the front camera works when I go into the camera. Why would this be flashing on the screen?
Sorry to be such a newbie, but I guess we all have to start somewhere!
Try this one: http://www.mediafire.com/?5wokm0nh8ym9vza
Seems the guy who made smart stay has it rigged to turn off on certain dates as a beta.
He has the lite and pro versions of it on the play store now

i just got it, but for some reason, i dont think its working. It could be user error too! I followed the directions, but the screen wont turn on or off when i put my eyes in front of it or move them away. isnt it supposed to turn on when it detects your eyes and off when it doesnt?

No this one is just for when your screen timeout time runs out, if it see's two eyes looking at it then it will keep the screen on.

haha, told you it was user error! Ok, that works!! Do you know if we will get one that operates like the g3?
Any idea on how to make it stop talking? It randomly tells me I'm adjusting setting or going back to the home screen. I believe it is this app doing it because the phones never done it before.
the app hasn't talked to me at all! It must be another app that is talking to you. that's weird though!

Did you get a different version of the app with a hidden talking feature? 'Cause then, I want a refund.
Most likely it's your voice app or Talkback from your Settings >> Accessibility.
This application is over. The lite version is free to test over the market. But it doesn't work with low light. The best application for me is Sceeble and it's also free on Play Store. It works with the sensor.

is "SCEEBLE" that you suggested spelled right, because i can't find it on the Play Store.
It's SCREEBL without E at the end of the word. Download from the market it works perfectly and it's free.

[Q] Black Box says English on boot up

Is this normal? I get a small black box after I unlock after bootup, that says English.
Can I turn this off?
I got that too right after I updated to. 26 . I changed a root setting, got that, then had a bootloop. At first it restarted 30s after boot then just bootlooped as soon as it started up.
I hope you don't get that but if you go just do a factory reset and you should be fine.

Hey lardo. Mine does this as well, but so did my TF300. And a friend of mines TF300 does as well. Seems to be normal. But also a little annoying

Thanks for letting me know.
I think this black box is from the keyboard layout being initialized. It doesn't happen every time but I've seen it quite a few times on mine.

[Q] Phone reverts back to default keyboard from Fleksy

Hi,
So I'm running PA 4.5 Alpha 2.
When I select Fleksy as my keyboard, it does not seem to stick. If i let my phone idle for a couple of minutes, unlock it and I'm back to default Android keyboard.
I also have Minuum installed and it does not seem to behave the same way.
I've seen some old posts on 4.1.1 that was doing the same thing after reboot, but my case is different as I don't have to reboot for it to happen.
I've tried emailing Fleksy, they of course told me to revert back to stock.
Anyone has some suggestions?
Thanks.
Freeze the default stock keyboard and then it shouldn't be able to go back. I'm using SwiftKey and have no problems.
