You can install an alternate market called blackmart, and downlod it from there. I'm using it and I'm really happy! Luck!!
I have the Sony Ericsson swiping keyboard from the new Xperia line, i flashed it from another ROM and it works flawlessly for me
I'm using the Swype keyboard for months now and I'm very happy that I bought it.
It appears fast when I need it, the layout is perfect and I stand amazed with its predictions (it seems to know exactly what is the next word I want to write). The more I use it, the more it improves itself, since it learns the words I write.
It's pretty easy to start using it. After the initial installation, you need to download one (or more) language packs (with the words of the language you chose). The configuration screen explains itself.

sorry for a newb question.. But is it possible to use rom manager to flash this keyboard on a stock non rooted vibrant? or rom manager is for rooted phones only?

as black as night (or like the BlackFroyo themed keyboards)
Yes I get fc too. This happend earlier today when I flashed a diff multi-touch keyboard. The problem is that this is only compatible with 2.1. We need someone to port this to 2.2.
It's an app, so there should be away to do this without root, but this requires root.
This is for 2.2, not eclair.
Post 1 updated. Go to that other thread... i sesrched, but i thought it would be here... not the dev section.

I stumbled on this this morning. I have to say, this is the best keyboard I've used in portrait mode. Not counting Swype of course.
Has anybody tried flashing the gingerbread keyboard on to their MT4G?
I flashed it, but every time i go to press a key, i get a FC telling me "(process com.android.inputmethod.latin) has stopped unexpectedly."
Has this happened to anyone else? is there any way to fix it? thank you for any help =)
theres a thread going on about it here (same problem):

happened to me but now you can download "gingerbread keyboard for android" in the market for free
virtually identical and better than the stock touch input keyboard hands down!

I download that keyboard and am loving it. The developer also made a free gingerbread theme too that works pretty well. I think the developer name is Stevey Lin...not sure, not by the phone right now.

It would be fine on your dell streak, probably not on a mytouch 4g though.

Would be interesting to see how well it works.
You can get swype currently from their site, if you miss swipe, has a couple bugs on TB but works fairly well.

Im still using swype but it bugs me that I have to use handscent to get the auto caps and auto spacing to work for texting.
Maybe htc purposely built their messaging app this way so people wouldnt want swype and would look for an alternative?
HTC phones are also the only phones you need to switch swype off then reselect it to get it to work after a reboot.
FlexT9 works perfect in the mean time. Seems to do the same stuff, but FlexT9 has handwriting recognition + swype + voice input + QWERTY + Compact QWERTY.

Nope, Swype did that on the OG Droid as well. Was one of the reasons I stopped using it. Using Flex T9 now and loving it.
I've been playing with that on the doubleshot port. It's cool.

Would there be any way to port just this mod to the Thunderbolt? I'm using a modded version of Swype that works great but I think this would be even better.

Has anyone else noticed that while using the Swype keyboard it us not possible to enter numbers in payment fields on the internet?
Example: I go to transfer money from one bank account to another. Where I enter the dollar amount i can not input numbers unless I switch keyboards, but I can put in other characters.
This being said, I am able to enters numbers into other areas with my Swype keyboard "1234567890"...see? It works here, so why not where I'll actually use it? Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks.

It happens in any "fields" where you enter a dollar amount like on ebay or my banks website...etc.

Not a problem for me, but i'm on a custom ROM, so browser/android version/swype version is likely different. Are you rooted? Why note install the beta? It's probably more up to date than what you're using.
I uninstalled the version that came with the phone and downloaded the beta. It installed the tablet version of Swype, which had a different configuration and smaller keys in portrait mode.
I tested the issue you described and I don't have it. I can enter numbers fine in Ebay fields. The tablet version automatically switched to a number pad actually.
Yeah, I'm rooted and OCed thanks to DA_G's threads.
I think I'll try out the tablet version. Thanks guys.

Thanks for reminding me to try this out. I find Swyping a with the S Pen to be really convenient and fast. Almost faster than my finger I think.

Freezing it via TBU would be the best way to do that.

Thanks, i like new swype beta, and yellow on it looks better than blue to me.
Just installed Swype beta but I think the keyboard is a bit too small for me. Any idea on how to get the non-tablet version?
so anyone else hating the new swype beta? adding words to the dictionary automatically is good but find its recognition of simple words to be really poor meaning 2/3 goes sometimes for something like 'do'.
anyone else having similar issues?
i restored my backup of previous Swype but that was fc'ing and the installer i have for it only installs the new beta version.
even with these issues though it's still so much faster than any other keyboard so I'm kinda just putting up with it and hoping they update it soon to fix these issues.

yeah i tried a few too and thought the same, but just a backwards step with the beta, hopefully they'll update and sort it out soon.
