Swype Beta doesn't support our screen size - HTC Rezound

The title pretty much sums it up. I went to swype.com, checked the FAQ's, and visited the forums. The closest they get is 1280 x 800 for tablets. We need 1280 x 720.
Bummer...
***EDIT***
SWIPE WORKS! The newest beta is amazing!

works just fine here

Works fine for me too!

I have the problem where if I Swype too fast it cuts off my word and makes it two separate, irrelevant ones.

Ok. Scratch that. I had to download it twice, but finally got it to install. I'm loving the dictation!

I was wondering what went wrong, I've been using it Since then Rezound came out on 14 November, the newest versions amazing.

Happens with me too. IDK if that's a Rezound/Nexus problem, but I hope they fix it quickly.

problem with stock is it doesn't work in browsers or market.

I'd already done that, but it's a good suggestion. Maybe it'll happen less after I get used to it again. I'd switched to SlideIT and then SwiftKey before returning to Swype just recently.

I haven't had the issue. I have had a few instances of it bouncing around, but it was because I had another finger on the screen, or it was damp/dirty.

same problem here, might not fully be supported on our phones yet.

I also can't swype too fast, or it messed up pretty good lol.

Can someone post the beta installer file (not the style file itself, but the installer that you need to download swype beta)? Tried the link from the email I got back in August and it no longer works. Thanks.

Perfect...looks like it works fine for me also. Using it right now to respond...now to decide between this or swiftlet x...both have their strengths...

I've been using the galaxy nexus Swype installer, works great. It'd found on xda.

browser resetting?

When I press home and go and check my email or anything else, and return to the browser...it returns to the homepage. It does this everytime. It's pretty annoying. I've never run into this on my Inspire 4G. It's like its force closing when I press the home button.
Help?
I noticed this earlier as well on mine.
I think ill just have her use Dolphin. Its what i use anyways.
Same here. I ended up using dolphin.

Its my girlfriend's phone and she says, its fine. I informed her that there are other browsers and changes you can make. Her previous phone...iPhone 4.
She isn't used to Android, and I believe doesn't care enough. Thank god I made the switch before I was brainwashed too.

I exchanged my note under the warranty for that exact same reason. The new note did the same thing. It will even do it with dolphin browser eventually sometimes, though not quite as often. Ever since I rooted it and started using cm9 and AOKP with ics+ browser, it hasn't happened again.
I wish she would let me root it. Lol
I have run several ICS roms on my Inspire and I told her she would love CM9. I guess ill just have to wait for the official ICS update for the Note.

I noticed this as well. Good thing is, it's not an issue with ICS.
I honestly can't say this has happened to me using dolphin (which I installed immediately after purchasing the note)
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using XDA
I think it has to do with using more than one browser. If you use dolphin, I think it takes over the allotted usable memory for browsers and wipes the other browser's pages out.
I keep checking every other day or so for.the official update, no luck yet.

It is a very annoying issue. I was holding out on rooting, but I gave in and rooted. Now I use ics+ browser. This doesn't happen anymore. I wonder what the problem is with it when it is stock?
well Dolphin HD and Chrome beta dont do that and are way better than the stock browser
they are free so should check them out

So get this..... Is this even possible?

So this guy i work with tells me he was talking to 2 guys who work down the street at CDW. Apparently they both had Notes. But, they somehow managed to be running Honeycomb on them. Possible? Now this guy I work with knows cell phones pretty good so I have no reason to doubt him but I figured I'd ask anyway.

SwiftKey 3 Beta Free Download!

Hi everybody, TouchType Ltd. have decided to release their latest beta for the ever popular SwiftKey today for free
Seeing as the demand for the beta is hammering their servers, I decided to upload the .apk to my dropbox for everybody to enjoy. Just download and install like you would with any other app
Here's the file: http://db.tt/GHjXdQi7
FYI, this is a FREE, OPEN beta and therefore this is a FREE APP. I understand the rules of xda, and I do not condone or promote pirating in any way!
I got it from them and I really like it so far.

I bought swift key x, for some odd reason i can't get away from the stock android keyboard.
I like it, but think I still prefer Perfect Keyboard. It seems to me the new smart space feature in the Swiftkey is a little too agressive. I sometimes end up getting spaces where I didn't want them.
i guess i'm the only one who thought it's terrible? I tried it to see if its any better than AI Type that I've been using for over a year. I switched back.

Ha ha...I typically have the opposite problem with swiftkey products - try to add 2 spaces after a sentence and end up with a predicted word instead. I always have to turn off "space bar inserts predicted word" because of this, and it kinda hinders the usability of swiftkey.
Made it about 14 hours (8 of which I was sleeping) before going back to swype
SwiftKey works really well for me. Swype is annoying and the samsung keyboard is awful.

I was confused about the question mark too, but today I realized that if you swipe the period key to the left, it automatically uses the other available punctuation depending on how far you swipe. Pretty cool
It took some getting used to, but u love this feature now.

I didn't like that - I also don't know why they swapped the mic button and the number/symbol button. And there's no way I can find to turn off the aggressive parsing of one word/filename into a sentence.
I went back to the original Swiftkey - new is not always better

Well, it's a beta. Maybe it will get better. I love that the space bar is longer. That used to always trip me up. Plus I don't even need a space bar anymore. Lol.

Good Free Keyboards for the Rezound?

Im having a hard time finding a decent keyboard for the Rezound. Here is the issue, I really don't like the standard HTC keyboard. The buttons are backwards as far as Im concerned.
Problem is when I try a different one, ICS keyboard from the market, swype etc they are way too small because of the Rezound screen. Also when I say too small I mean the width in addition to the height.
Ive seen a few keyboards where you can actually mod the height but not the width, which I honestly dont get. Well my primary problem is hitting the letter next to the one I actually want because the keys aren't wide enough.
Is there any keyboard out there thats basically the standard ASOP keyboard, but the same size as the HTC one, that would be perfect for me. I cant seem to find one.
Swiftkey Beta 3 is free for now. Best keyboard I've used to date.

I seriously need a new keyboard too. I loved swype on the incredible. It was beast mode, I could text and type as fast as typing on my computer. I can't find a decent keyboard on this thing. I can't use swype because it breaks and can't swype no where near as fast as I could on the incredible. I tried swiftkey and didn't really like that either. I currently use the trace on the HTCkeyboard and I can't stand it either. It's no where near as accurate as swype.
Does anyone know of some swypelike keyboards that don't break on the Rezound?

I tried multiple roms and so far it seems there is no fix.
For example I was on the web browser. Backed out with the home key to go to home screen. I then went to settings to change my display settings went back to browser and the whole page had to reload and refresh.
My GS2 and Galaxy Nexus was better then this phone in the performance department.
Not to mention after you start installing apps and setting up your home screens the phone just gets slower and slower and less snappy.

Yep. It's bad.
Bad enough that my lte is sitting in a drawer as I use an alpha cm9 build on my evo 3d. Multitasking, background downloads stopping, and overall sluggishness compared to stock drove me away.
