THANK YOU! So much. Can't wait to try.
very fun to use, takes a bit of getting used to at first entering words but you soon begin to pick up speed and accuracy!

Haha, I would be using the term "legit" very loosely if I agreed with you. If this was "legit", then all the cooked ROMs would be "legit". And since HTC and M$ hasn't seriously cracked down on them, then they have to be legit!
Nonetheless, Swype works great. I really like the size of the keys in landscape. I wish the default landscape keyboard was of this size (with the space bar on the bottom rather than on the side, of course).
sounds good enough for me!
and yea the landscape keyboard is quite good to use
It was quite good and interesting.. although wonder if there is any support for other languages aswell.. for example norwegian and dutch
I've never heard of this before, but I just-now installed it -- it's quite cool and works amazingly well!
From the guy who co-invented T9 text input...
I'll give it a try although it does seems a bit complicated to use but from what user say so far it works good and much faster then typing...does XT9 work with this?
Thats a cool KB I have a question though, does anybody know whether we can make the TP messages and all backgrounds within the system BLACK instead of the default white? It will sharp up the contrast and will be definitely cool!!!!
Thx
I installed this and it is awesome, highly recommend it to anyone.
Now this is freaking Awesome ............
installed it on my german rom, but get an error. can't find english_us or similar. are there some options to change the language?

SlideIT supports the following languages:
Czech, Danish, Dutch, Finnish, French, German, Hebrew, Hungarian, Italian, Norwegian, Portuguese, Russian, Spanish and Swedish.
They are going to add more additional languages as :
Turkish, Croatian, Serbian, Bulgarian, Romanian, Greek, Estonian, Slovak and Polish.

All these languages...but no English?
Or is English assumed?
I installed the cab and installation went fine. But I don't see option to "swype" in my virtual keyboard. Do I have to enable it?
(I'm running Tmobile stock ROM, if that matters)
So, if you click the little triangle next to the pic of the keyboard you don't see the Swype option below?
Also, many people don't know that Swype has an options screen so I've included pics of them too.
pretty sweet keyboard. Really polished. Works as a nice alternative to EzInput. Perhaps we'll find some themes and stuff for it.
Just Downloaded it and will try it out. Looks pretty cool though.
I know that I am an outsider here now (used to have a xv6700 and a xv6800)
I have an Omnia I910 custom rom, I installed this I have the option for it but when I select it, it looks extremely distorted andI am unable to see anything to use it any ideas?
oh btw cant wait for HTC HD2 to get here I want one so bad

Hi all
I am new user here in polaris section, but I just got myself one 4 days ago.
I noticed there is alot of norwegians, here so I guess a wm6.1 rom in norwegian could be nice
it will ofcourse be a beta, since its my first release in polaris.
Guess you can call it a hybrid when it comes to language, but most apps will be norwegian, but on top of english os.
I hope I can release the rom tonight (norwegian time)
Im at work now, so i cant provide screens yet, but that will come with the rom, maybe before.
satser på at dette kan bli bra..
Looking forward to it! I might finally take the plunge and flash a cooked rom..

Nice, I guess this would be quite interessting for many norwegians although there isnt really THAT much different from having an english ROM.

But its not far off
I`ll try it, as soon you realese it.
Høres spennende ut.
sounds brilliant
just have to figure out what to do with my phone atm...
any of you know if the device code for tomtom changes after change of rom?
I bought maps of scandinavia, would suck to loose them...
This is great news! I will try it when you release it, looking forward to it!
Kjempebra jobbet, gleder meg!
nope, if you store your maps and all on sd-card, then you will not have to activate again, tomtom will recognise the maps and key.
Great!
Kjempegreier!
Good, looking foreward to this. Myself I gave up trying to cook a Norwegian ROM using the Polaris Kitchen. If it will be a mix of languages as you state, I wonder if it would not be better to go for a clean english OS, and just add norwegian keyboard and XT9.
I for one, hate mixed language OS's. A mix of Program Files and Programfiler etc. Just makes a mess.

At last!! Been waiting ages for someone like you
Looking forward to your ROM
Is it possible to get:
1. only Norwegian keyboard/keypad with XT9?
Keep it up man
Super(t)!
This is good news for all us Norwegians here @ xda
I will absolutely give it a try, when a cooked "nor-rom" comes out.
Lykke til!
getting any closer?
Allright, good news here
There is released a norwegian wm6.1 for kaiser, so im downloading it from e.club now.
I will start working on porting the rom tonight or tomorrow, and im sure within a few days I will have the first beta up and running.
cheers
Is there anyway to get swedish layout to the onscreen keyboard and swedish xT9?? Considering to buy this phone ,but it will not be realsed in sweden so i guess there never will be a swedish rom.

The Swedish keyboard and xT9 are included in the stock ROM but need activating in the registry. It's a great phone, very small, with a fast processor and plenty of RAM.
oh thats is wonderful, thx for all help
Anybody use it? I got a cab, and it's pretty awesome.
Swype Videos
I'm thinking it should be built into a rom, but don't know if i should post it for copyright reasons.
External Link
u know the rules , u told us about it so u gotta deliver
WOW!! This looks amazing. Looking through their site, it doesn't look as though they would mind, as they are trying to have it distributed as OEM and have a beta group in progress at the moment.
i also tried swype. but its no option for me. you need many practice i think.
the resisitve screen from tg01 is not so good for this prog. the screen faster gets dirty and will be scratched, if you use this for long time i think.
on other screens like the hd2 it would work better.
Ive been using this keyboard for a few months now and it works 100% perfectly on my TG01.
If you dont want your screen scratched you can either:
1) Buy a screen protector
2) Not use your phone at all
Im using a martin fields overlay plus screen protector, and any slight scratches that may have appeared are gone within 2 days. Those scratches arent from using swype though
I've had no problems with scratches either.. just don't wrap your fingers in sand paper and you should be fine
SlideIT
I personally use SlideIT as an alternative to Swipe, same functionality but a less cluttered keyboard. Would highly recommend.
Cheers,
is very good but it don't had romanian language
swype is my fav keyboard i've ever used, i really would check with the rights holder before ditributing it in a rom though...
I use it for about 1 month and meanwhile it's my favorite keyboard ever..
Accuracy is amazing and it looks so cool. Couldn't get enough of it.

Do some research. It took me about half an hour of googling to find the swype cab for free.
Try ShapeWriter. Same thing and its free in the market. Takes a little getting used to, but you can really fly with this thing

Would anyone confirm for me that it is possible to use the Swype technology with the Danish language?
Ive never seen a video or read a danish review where they show it :/
hi from another dane!
this is from the Swype homepage..
Hi All,
We've had so many questions about which languages we support, we put together a list! Thanks for inquiring. Currently Swype supports:
English (US and UK), French, German, Italian, Spanish, Danish, Dutch, Malay, Russian, Slovenian,Portuguese (Brazil and Portugal), Romanian, Slovak, Swedish, Serbian (Latin Keyboard), Czech, Greek, Polish, Indonesian, Norwegian (Nynorsk and Bokmål), Turkish, Icelandic.
We just need to sit back and wait i guess. (for the new version that is.) currently 1.54 doesnt suppport Danish.. i'm looking forward to it though
-TB-
Do you know if the danish support comes with an update or so? :/
I must admit i really dont know... maybe its going to be released together with froyo or maybe its an individual download... the homepage doesn't really state anything..
-TB-
Funny enough, if you go to samsung.com and look up the phone from there - it advertises with Swype, written all in danish..
I called thier Danish support, and he promised me that Swype will be an danish too with the froyo release.. Or at least i think he ment froyo since he started talking about "portable hotspot" feature also.. He even said they had it running internally, but that it was not yet public..
Ill go ahead and by one as soon as telmore.dk gets it in thier stock - which should be around this or next week..
I flashed the phone with the JG1 firmware and I can choose Norwegian, Swedish and Danish SWYPE.
Tried the norwegian one and it works good. I've only have one problem with it, "i" becomes "I".

Only SlideIT has 30 language packs
and include Danish language pack
I might be a little late here, but I bought my Galaxy S from TDC yesterday, and it came with Danish swype.
Regards
currently there are only 7 languages available... is there any way to implement more in a future release (custom rom or patch)? i' ve read somewhere that this is a google subject and acer can't do anything about it... (i think a user send an email to acer about it and they answered that)...
honeycomb should have more languages till now...

The problem is easily solved through market for the keyboard languages.
But the issue of the honeycomb ui, can' t be solved with an application...
By the way, multiling is a nice one, i use smart keyboard but the layout isn' t satisfying in landscape mode, so i'll give it a try...
The keyboard is not the problem... the keyboard has a lot more languages than the Ui.
I´m going to make a call to the norwegian support tomorrow and ask about more languages and especially Norwegian for my part.
I got mine from Scotland a week ago, and hoped it had all the languages as i´m used to from my HTC phones. But no such luck.
This device has now been released in Norway, and i hope they can give me the rom.

If you have any info regarding this issue, post it here please...
I have now spoken to the Norwegian support team and they say that as long as I have bought this outside of scandinavia, it will not support other languages. And they have not got any rom to give out. So I can eathe wait for an official scandinavian update or install what he called a "unlisenced" program/rom from some developer. If I installed from a developer it would not take away the warranty on the product only take away the support on the program.
So i hope someone can take a scandinavian A500 and get out the rom and post it here so we can get support on more languages. The scandivavian models usually have a lot of languages installed.

I doubt it that there is a scandinavian version because acer mentioned that it is google's issue the language support. I bought it here in Greece and installed there are: english, french, german, italian, spanish and two chinese i think.
I'm surprised by the fact that they advised you to install a custom rom... custom rom demands root, root means hacking, can harm the device (if you perform overclock for example or bricking the device if something goes wrong) in any way the warranty is over... as far as i know from my mobile phones so far, there isn't such "dual" warranty, one for software and one for hardware simply because software (especially custom) can damage hardware...

I totally agree with what you are saying. I was a bit shocked that he sugested what he did. I will contact one of the stores here in Norway that sells the A500 and ask if there is Norwegian language on the one they sell. If it is that's great....if its not...then Google have some job to do on the gingerbread. We can't live with just those languages.
Edit: Just got of the phone with a norwegian retaler and they could confirm that the A500 that they sell do have Norwegian UI.
One of the staff had just bought one himself, any could confirm it.

Hi,
I have the same issue. I bought a Iconia outside of scandinavia. I would like the swedish ui.
The thing is that i got a System update message yesterday. I havn't installed it yet. It doesn't say what it updates just that it is a 1.126.03 version.
I guess this is the build number. I currently have the 1.016.03. I wounder what version the scandinavian models have.
Language pack CD ?
Same problem here...only 1 language available...
I called ACER support BNL and they told me that it is possible for retailers to order a language pack CD from Packard-Bell.
Next week i will try to get this so called language pack CD.
If not...maybe somebody else can try to get it ?
Greeting to you all...
I would like to buy the A500 in Austria, they told me that the UI is in German and can't be changed to English. What do you think?dose I will be able to chang it to English? I don't want to be stuk with German ( which i don't talk) I'm on vacation in Austria and in Israel i can't buy it.thanks in advance for your quick reply

My Acer is imported from Austria and yes the only language selectable is German but you can use English language. Just install morelocale (free on market) and that's it. My device is in English now.
