Keyboard Installing Issue

[adidasfanatic]

I just updated to 2.1, and I've tried installing Swype (beta)(HVGA) and I have it checked off to use in the keyboard settings menu, but the default keyboard still comes up. Any ideas?

In any text input box you need to "long press" and it will give you an option for Input method ...... choose swype

Hmm...under Settings --> Locale & Text, are you able to check "Swype"?
Next, when you get to a text box inside the SMS/Mail programs and LONG press, do you get a dialog box that allows you to "Select input method"?
If so, is Swype not appearing there, or are you getting an error?

This is a response I got from KOCAW so any thanks go to him. Just wasn't sure how to quote from one thread to another.

So when you go to send an e-mail and the standard keyboard pops up, just LONG press the To: box at the top and select input method then select Swype.
