Hello there, kids - you gotta love 'em!
Its one of the east things to sort out (don't let her near your pattern lock!) go into you messaging app and in the text input box long press, you will get a popup and one should say 'Input Method' select this and then select either Android or Standard (or whatever other keyboard you are using).

Thx so much.

Swype cursor, who knew?

Swype has always frustrated me, when you need to move forwards and backwards much in a text field, it is difficult to do with your finger and I could not find anything to help in swype.
All I had to do was hit the bottom left swype button and then slide to the symbol key right next to it. BAM, there it is. It's probably most helpful for copy and paste and some other situations where you just can't move the cursor with your finger.
Just an fyi, and also wondering if this was already common knowledge?

I wouldn't call it common knowledge, but it's been known for a while. I found out about it in a tips and tricks thread somewhere.
Also, try the same thing, but slide to "f" instead of "sym" to pull up a number pad

Are there more shortcuts?
-swype key then symbol key
-swype key then f
...more?

also, in 2.2, in text entry fields, if you tap the field a movable cursor shows up that you can slide left and right.
A lot of tips like these are in the General Sticky....
that said, I do not know if its a shortcut, but I love going from the apostrophe to "s".... I can type words like "what" and then with that gesture quickly make is "what's"
also, if "bump" from one letter to the next it helps swype identify the letter you are really going for (ie, you go across a row and there could be a few correct letters).
I take it that none of you had ever done the tutorial with swype on your phone...

Swype > F is the only one from this thread that is not on there.. and that is not all that much needed from using the other number pad.
Swype -> q switches it to AZERTY. It doesn't switch it back. Pretty useless.
These Swype shortcuts are all on the Swype website lol

To switch back, press and hold the top-left button (where Q used to be) and choose U.S. English. If you've picked Korean by accident, press and hold where the A button was to switch back to English.

True. And somewhere else on the Internet someone else is talking about every other thread on xda...

Hi
I bought optimus one month back, i am really satisfied with the mobile.
My phone is rooted so the first thing i did is i removed Google search toolbar which is a stock app that is present at the homescreen at top.
So its been month and didn't use search button for anything, don't want it to be dormant.
problem with keyboard is that word doesn't start with capital letter after fullstop(.)
I didnt quite get your post. Where is the question?
M using autorotate screen switch on long press of search button
For capital letters problem set auto capitalisation from language and keyboard settings
Thanks

Smart Keyboard PRO bugs on cm9(and ROMS based on it)

Hello, I've got a problem. If i try to use a cm9 ROM, and i use Smart Keyboard it goes for a min and then, if i try to type it doesnt react. I have to press back and then press to write again. :c it really messes with me, cuz i would type a simple 200 symbols msg like in 10 minutes... and there's no problem on 2.3 ROMS only cm9 ;s

There's noving u can do about it. All keyboards on CM9 will have a bit lag or many. The phone just cant handle it well
I've the same issue. Press back button and relaunch it. But has someone any idea why it happen?
Sorry for my english.
Solution.
I think that i've found a solution. There is an option in settings inside of advanced settings, "disable multitouch" i think, my keyboard is in spanish so i guess that it's what it type in english, tick it.
And the other thing is in general settings, where shows multi-tap interval, you reduce it and I think that our keyboard will go fine.
I hope that it works for you.

Choose Input method doesn't work using status bar

Hello Community! I hope you can help me!
The problem is if i want to change the input method (e.g. from Android's to Touchpal) the window (where i can choose what keyboard i want to use) pops up but closes half of a second later by itself. So i can't switch to another keyboard out of e.g. Tapatalk or Messaging.
So this happens to me in almost any application. But what i can do is to choose the input methid in -settings> language and input- without a problem.
I don't know what to do. Can you help me?
Greetings

When you install TouchPal open it. Has 3 steps to setup the thing.
sent from the state where marijuanated muffins are NOT illegal !
I know. That doesn't help. No matter if I use Swype, Touchpal, Swiftkey or any other keyboard. The problem still exists.
So the little window which pops up when I click "change input method" in status bar disappears immediately without letting me the chance to choose a keyboard.
