Question Problem with Samsung keyboard and Gboard after November update? - Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra

So I use OfferUp and Mercari a lot. (Buying and selling apps, like craigslist and eBay). I've noticed after the most recent Samsung November update, when I have a private message with someone in either one of those apps the swiping feature on both Gboard and Samsung keyboards doesn't work. I have to peck at the keyboard to type.
It still works on other apps, for example when I'm swiping here. I've checked all kinds of settings and I don't see anything that would fix it. It seems to be similar how you can't swipe when entering a password. The keyboards can detect when it's a password field and disabled swipe but it's now doing it within these apps for private messages. I hope this makes sense.
I'm just looking for a fix below I cannot stand typing on a keyboard without swiping.

Works for me. lol

I'm having the same issue. Did you ever find a solution?

I have the same problem. No solutions. Another annoying feature from the update is that in all messaging apps i see completely random words and phrases underlined as a maps link. Wtf

Dialer Applications

Hey Everyone,
Just wondering what everyone is using as there Dialer??
The Stock one is quite sad considering that you have to click like a few times to call someone...
Is there a application out there that displays all your contacts and you just have to press once on the name to dial?? ( Not like MeContacts that only displays so many for speed dialing)
I was looking at Dialer one but can't seem to download it...seems discontinued or something...
Please give your preference and if you can, why you chose it.
Thank you all for your input.
Chad
check out superdial
There is 2 in the market place at the moment,
1 that is a paid version but says it's for chinese users but we can use it still and the 2nd one has bugs in it and isn't being continued?

me too looking for something like this , checked superdial, not so impressive though.
Check out Youlu. A number of Android sites have recommended it. I just installed it, and though it could use more options (such as disabling dial-sounds, and hiding of email-only contacts), it looks nice.
wow this is actually better than atakephone, i kinda regret paying for it now!
I always had hard time searching contacts to dial.
I used modified acontacts on my donuts. But im now using Dialer One.
It have call log, dialer. contacts at once. easy to use. and its Free
Try it

Going to try Youlu and Dialer one out right now and see which one I like better!
Another vote for Superdial. I've been using it for a few months now, can't live without it. It's definitely one of the best dialers out there.
My main concern is having quick and easy access to contacts without having to click through 17 menus to get to them. I simply start spelling the name of the contact and it appears, tap their name and it's calling. Takes a mere 2 seconds before I'm calling the person I want.

[Q] Swype + Cursor Handle = No "W"?

I've got a problem that I don't seem to see any others having... although they should.
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Every time I open the keyboard to type I'm greeted with the cursor handle halfway over the "w" key. If I try to start a word with a "w" it will think I want to move the handle and the swype won't take, so either I have to wait ~5 sec for it to disappear or hit another letter and backspace and then start. If you are good you can get the bottom of the "w" key but more often than not you get the handle.
It's in the most unfortunate place, too - as most phrases I text start with "w".
Where you at?
Who is coming?
When will you be here?
What do you want to do?
Why are you still here?
...etc
The stock keyboard is fine since there is the space above - why not Swype too?
So the question is - first, more theoretical, why would Android default to have the handle there when there is no text entered? (e.g. starting a text or web search)
Secondly, is there any way to get rid of the handle altogether? I've gotten accustomed to Android not having it so I'm good if it's not there but also with Swype there is little reason to go back and edit individual letters.
Maybe someone who works for Swype will see this and add the new (and much improved) word selection bar above the keyboard all the time like stock gingerbread...
Try Swype 3.0 (in beta)?

Thanks for the reply. I'm using version 3.6.84.26668.t100.26698

Then I'm afraid I have no idea how to fix your problem. I don't ever get the cursor handle when initially opening an input window. Mine only shows up after I touch it a second time.
I have that same problem with the cursor over the W...very annoying. I've defaulted to skipping the 'W' when I type the first word...

[APP][2.3+][WIP] SideKick Launcher, GYF's free little brother

Originally, I was planning on calling the little guy "Gyffy, GYF's sidekick." But then, I though "Oh, wait."
Of course I am still working on my other launcher but in my quest for ever faster access to anything on my phone, I realized that this may be another step forward, albeit with fewer features.
Warning: Alpha version.
No, it will not damage your phone, but it's still early in the dev process so, it is expected to break.
How do I use it?
In a nutshell: see that tiny blue square in the screenshots? Yes, this guy. Just double-tap it to open SK. Then, tap one or more letters.
Oh, and you can move that square wherever you want: long-press, your device vibrates; drag it around.
Limitations
Just about anything you can think of! Since it's such a young project, it lacks:
- preferences
- proper spelling
- resiliency
- initialization speed
- a consistent way to dismiss the launcher window; just tap in the text field or some open space underneath it
Fun yet useless features
- Right now, touching an app launches it; sliding over it reveals a menu for alternate actions but it doesn't offer any yet
- You can swipe left on the keyboard to delete letters; it's highly unreliable

Screenies
Yes, these were taken using the Genymotion simulator. How observant of you!

Oh, no. I can think of a lot of things still missing e.g. shortcuts.
You should see updates very soon.

as I opposed to having a magic blue square on your screen, why not have it activated with a dragging of your finger from the edge of a section of the screen? A lot of apps do this and it's pretty easy to use lol.

If the toolbar is missing, go into the keyboard settings and turn it on.

Samsung keyboard hasn't had this for a few years.
If you turn the toolbar off, to get emojis, you hold down the comma key and choose the emoji icon froma list of icons.

Hang on, I just found how to do it for you :silly:
I use GBoard so I didn't know...but I've just found it while going through it. It's all tucked away. You turn off the toolbar in keyboard settings. Then long press the comma, and choose the emoji icon. This sets that left key as the emoji key. It just means that to get a comma, you need to long press theperiod key.

[APP][5.0+] Corcle, a launcher with a pointer support.

Hey guys! This is Corcle, a launcher with a pointer support.
Main Idea was accessing apps as quickly as possible​
I have realized I get familiar with icons of the apps and I can identify them after used them a while. That's why I crammed as many apps as possible into one screen and sorted them by most usage.
Also, I have noticed if I installed some apps lately, I wanted to use them right away. That's why I placed newly installed apps at bottom for quick access.
However this wasn't enough, opening apps where placed at corners wasn't convenient and if you start switching apps constantly then it starts becoming painful.
That's because our smartphones get bigger and bigger screens, however navigating on them with only one hand become impossible. Steve Jobs had talked about this issue too and said:
Making a phone so big you can't get your hand around it

Actually he was thinking phones couldn't be bigger but as we know they been. However the issue was still there and I wanted to fix it.
So, what you can do with a pointer ?​
You will only move the pointer from bottom of the screen with your one finger. Pointer will act as your finger and you will be able to reach the apps with minimum effort.
To open the app, just slide the pointer on top of it and release your finger.
Holding the pointer on the top of the app will open submenu that you can favorite, open its settings or uninstall the app.
You can start searching your apps with sliding the pointer to letters and it will automatically filter them by their first letter.
If you have more apps than one page (and we usually do), moving pointer to the left and right corners will change the page
Spoiler: Video
It's still at prototype state, so there are bugs. Actually, Corcle just released to open alpha. I will be appricated if you report the bugs you found or if you have any suggestion you can send from xxxx. For updates you can join telegram group from xxxx.
I'm happy to hear what you're thinking about the app.
Future Plans:
Applying the pointer to use it inside of the apps.
Easily accesing notifications
Widget support
xxxx
Thank you for your interest, hope you enjoy Corcle
