If you get the keyboard up and long press on ?123 you can pick the input method.

I have the same problem. When I long press ?123 I get the option to change input method, but only android keyboard shows up.

 

[Nexoid]

Oh My. I feel pretty stupid lol. Yeah just needed to long press ?123 and select it as my keyboard. Works everywhere now thanks

 

[rynowhi]

ha, I had uninstalled it. Works fine, thanks for the help.

Where did you get Swype for the Nexus One? Did you need to root your phone to get it?

 

[rynowhi]

Swype keyboard preview for Droid leaked DroidMuff.in

This is where I got started.

Thanks. But how did you get it towrk on the Nexus? I just installed it and it says it's not able to work with my display???

 

[Rusty]

It works fine after that message

 

[Rusty]

doesn't get on with landscape mode though

 

[lestat897]

OK. I got it working but only in portrait mode. Maybe I'm missing something. But when I rotate the phone to landscape, it opens a big window the size of the screen to type but doesn't show a keyboard. Any help?

 

[Rusty]

Nope that's just how it is at the moment, guess that's what you get for trying pre-release software from a different handset.

 

[lestat897]

OK. Thanks so much for your help.

installed it on my nexus....works nicely in portrait mode.

Not sure if I could use it all the time though. Think it has made my typing speed a bit quicker though.

I'll buy this when it's released, it's awesome!

But I uninstalled it. I can't deal with that error message all the tome

 

[daffyduck]

Just checked out Swype's website.....their business model is to sell the software to OEM's where it is integrated into the OS.

Personally, I think they are a bit mad as they would make money by selling the app on the Market/s. Would love to pay for an official version of it on my N1.

We could be waiting a while.......
