When I installed Swype I went to settings. then locale and test the selected Swype from there.
Worked straight away for me... have you done that ?

Hi.thank you for your reply...yes I had but have now reset the Streak and it works great...thanks for your help.
Do you know of anyway to disable the haptic feel on the home/back and menu buttons?

I have already install "dialer one" but there is nothing choice.
please help
Click on the middle button to open up all your application list and click and hold the app you want to add. Then drag it to the quick button you want to use. It works the same way you would drag apps to your home screen.

[Q] wanting new keyboard for streak

I've givin up on trying to put different roms on my streak, and I'll just wait for rogers to put up 2.2 on my streak (prob be in the summer at this rate) but I'd like to have the new swipe keyboard.
I have the phone rooted, but don't know where to download a new keyboard or how to get the program on my streak without using marketplace.
Any help would be great
Thanks
ps, I can't reply to any posts until there is 8 threads cause I'm a newb..... and for some reason I can't get the PM to work.... frustrating.. I think so !!

where can you get Smart Keyboard Pro?
Its in the market.
Sent from my Dell Streak using Tapatalk
You can install any app by using astro file manager from market. Just brouse your sd card
and run .apk file. It will give you the option to install file. I am with rogers too and I would suggest you the last Dell's official release.

I use ultrakeyboard and really like.
Swype opened their beta again so go to their website and sign up. Then you can load it on there even under 1.6. They have instructions on how to load it.

For sure the way to go. Even if you aren't in the mood for swyping it's still a nice keyboard!

If not Swype, get the Gingerbread Keyboard. Its fast and pretty close to accurate. A lot better then most keyboard.....Oh and I have SmartKeyBoard Pro and I still use the Gingerbread keyboard over this one.
X2 I love this keyboard. With it, you can adjust the height of the keys in terms of sizing to fit the huge screen of our Streaks.

Sweet i can reply
I downloaded the swype keyboard, and I love it so far. Hopefully soon I can type as fast with it as I did with my Blackberry 8900.
I can't get the speech recognition thing to work, cause I'm on 1.6.... But I'm workin on it.

[KEYBOARD] Stock Gingerbread Keyboard without smiley key

That damn smiley key was driving me insane, so I got the Gingerbread keyboard source from AOSP, got it to compile, and got rid of the smiley face button. Other than that, it's identical to the stock Android gingerbread keyboard, so requires 2.3+. Eventually I may figure out how to make it able to be turned on and off, but that would rather defeat the point. Enjoy!
(Note: you have to enable it in the Keyboard settings before you can use it, just like any other keyboard.)
The Eclipse project (source) is available here.
this sounds like a good thing for me because it also became annoying to me.
quick question though because i cant check out the keyboard mod yet, but does it remove the smiley key completely, or does it replace it with an enter key or something?
soon as i get the chance, ill install and see for myself
Nice. I like that it has been replaced with the enter key instead. I find that to be immensely more useful.
I replaced it with the significantly-more-useful return key.

The smiley key doesn't annoy me per se, but the fact that the Enter key was removed does. So now, it is impossible to have any semblance of formatting in your SMS'es.
Will definitely give this a go as soon as possible. This is definitely a must have as far as I am concerned.
Thanks, but i've a problem with your keyboard.
I turned on the vibrate on keyboard settings, but there is no vibration when I push a key.

Hm. I didn't modify the keyboard in any way other than replacing the smiley key, so I have no idea what may be causing that.

It's probably because you've packaged up the WVGA keyboard file, and not the qHD version. The Sensation sports a higher res screen.

That would make sense, but I don't see why the same keyboard wouldn't work on all devices. I mean, looking at the code, I see nothing that would prevent scaling. I was never asked for a target screen size to compile for, nor do I see any way to enter it. If someone could explain a way to fix it, I would gladly rerelease a qHD-compatible version.

You should try and work it out that Long Press of the return key let's you select smileys. It's one of my favorite features of Perfect Keyboard. But non the less, good job.

Is haptic feedback working, not working on mine.
Edit: Go to advanced Settings and change vibration duration setting to a value you want.
It will be set to -1 by default.

works well but... double tapping the caps key force closes every single time.
Long press sets caps lock, double tap crashes it.
This should be posted in themes & apps. New version without caps issue here.
Smart Keyboard PRO is my default keyboard, how does this compare?

Doesn't automatically capatilize the letter "I".

Haptic feedback works after you adjust the duration in settings. It can't last -1ms so it has to be changed.

Keyboard and typing problem

I was having a problem with my tablet that I thought a update might sort so I rooted it and tried a few different roms but am still getting the same problem when am typing something. You know when you make a mistake and you can touch the area you want to fix by either deleting or changing a letter well when i do that the the line wont stay on that spot it just shoots of somewhere else every time
I have the same problem!!!!!
