Hi there, mine Omnias coming Tuesday. I was wondering if it was possible to put Swype on these Windows Phone 7 devices. I hope so because I can't imagine living without it now! Has anyone tried to put it on?

Doubt it, but hey the stock keyboard is awesome anyway so no need

Yes, it doesn't work, I am sure someone will come up with it (or something like it) soon, The app store seems to have grown 10 fold in the last few days, stuff arriving all the time!
wwfc, Indeed the in-built keyboard is good, but IMO Swype is the next gen input method and with very little practice I can get close to normal typing speed with it. I miss it!
There are two or three variations of it out there and I have checked that at least one of them (SlideIT) is working on a WP7 version.

I'd like T9 for text messages. So much easier to hit a smaller number of bigger keys quickly.

Where can you get SlideIT? I can't see it on Marketplace...
You can't yet I am afraid, the author said he is working on a Windows Phone 7 version... No sign yet and the comments about how long other platforms have been waiting for updates is discouraging. Could be a while yet.
There is also ShapeWriter, but I don't know if they are doing a wp7 version.
I understand that you might prefer T9, so many people can do it with their eyes closed (and walking or on a bus, for sure). The standard keyboard tries to predict what you are trying to type, but it gets it wrong too often for me and the sheer hassle of having to concentrate on pointing exactly at the key you want and then missing and having to hit backspace - and missing that! Is a PITA.
Swype lets you be inaccurate and that, combined with the one "press" per WORD is how you can be so fast. Plus it's correction techniques are much faster than the standard keyboards.
I am sure there must be a "hook" in for other input methods.
Now I have SatNav, it's my biggest miss on WP7. That and the lack of hackability... And no iPlayer... And no copy and paste... And no multitasking... No Google maps (streetview)... Hmmm, can't wait for this Jan update!
Heppy Xmas,
Pete
I do hear the WP7 keyboard can be considered to top the iPhone's.
However, I do have a question for Swype users. What happens when you swype from o to r? I personally use both or and our extensively. On my WM6, it often prioritises one and hence I have to go back, tap the word, then select the word I want. That's grossly inefficient for inputting a two/three letter word.
There are plenty more examples where Swype has been hell to me. A 4-inch capacitive screen with full QWERTY will be a relief.
You can either hop between letters for better accuracy, or squiggle the letter to input manually. There are a list of tips on their website which makes it seem immensely more useful; though I'm not sure I would use it on WP7 as the keyboard is already excellent.
Hi i was wondering if anyone has ported the launcher from the note 2 or s3 to our phone?
currently no, lack of interest also, because all samsungs features is in the touchwiz framework, just like htc sense
what are you missing from touchwiz?
Why would we need touchwiz it's beyond awful

If you want it that bad, you can use Nova/apex launchers with the touchwiz theme.

Uh, it will take a lot more than a launcher to get multi-window. Maybe the CM team or some uberdev will build a multi-window setup that works. That is about the only thing I want on my N4.

okay why does it matter why he wants to have the touchwiz launcher? You guys are seriously going to question why he wants it like its any of your buisness, he likes touchwiz, its his choice of liking a different os. Its really stupid for you guys to question and put him down with negativity in comments instead of finding a link and if you dont like it? KEEP YOUR COMMENTS TO YOURSELVES.

I was just Googling some touchwiz launcher stuff for N4 and came to this thread.
Your comment is something that I have always wondered here at XDA. If you are in a particular device's forum, it means you are married to that phone and shall not praise/desire features and stuff which other phones have. It isn't like ditching your current device, XDA is all about development, so if someone seeks features from other phones, I think people should help (if you can) rather than criticizing. And when it comes to likings, everyone has his own preferences... who r we really to judge WHY he is liking this.. Why NOT he likes that.. etc etc. I know a lot of people do not like TW but many do. I ask the TW haters, if you don't like TW then what are you doing in this thread? Why replying? Why bother sneaking in? Just mind your own bloody damn business.

If you start making your own distributions of Android behaving in such fundamentally different ways, I suspect we are going to need to start doing things to prevent you from impacting our app ecosystem. I'm not sure what, but I could imagine things such as restricting how users can interact with Market apps on these devices (not allowing reviews or such).
We have let a lot of things in this area slide -- for example to be allowed to include Market on your device you are supposed to fully pass CTS. However, if you start really diverging from the core Android platform (I would argue this takes you well into the realm of a fork rather than a customization) then some deep issues are going to come up about how we handle these custom builds.
We have been putting a lot of thought and work for a number of years into how to let Android applications run on increasingly diverse and dynamic screens. Doing this correctly, without impacting our app developers in a negative way, is a really challenging problem. I also think it is something that needs to be done at the mainline platform level, not as a customization, because doing it right is going to require new well defined interfaces with applications for them to interact with it, possibly starting with just a facility they need to use to opt in to it.

googles (dianne hackborns) response when cyanogenmod was about to merge a multiwindow feature (cornerstone).
if its a smaller cm-fork or rom, cornerstone is open source waiting to be cherry-picked - although discontinued and buggy from what i hear.
can't imagine google is very happy about samsung doing it, but they might be too powerful a foe to upset.
another small observation, dianne herself introduced something like per app dpi to jellybean which seems related, still dormant. we might see it one day implemented as a real feature.
Hey guys-
Just wanted to say Hello! New member to this community- just recently picked up a 16gb White Note 10.1 (Got a great deal on it.)
Will be picking up a nice leather case (don't care about bluetooth keyboard) and a 64gb SD Card
Alil background- came from a 32gb HP Touchpad running CM10.1 on it!
Few questions to get me started:
Rooting- what's the best/ stable ROM out right now for the Note 10.1?? I have the US Variant 8013.
And what's the procedure? As I said- for the HP Touchpad- we just had to install PALM files/ Novacom and run a command within DOS- is it similar? Or do you guys use that Framaroot? And how would one "unroot?" For the Touchpad- we just had to run ACMEUninstaller!
ROM Requirements/Wishes:
I'd like to keep the ability to use the SPen/ Note features, as well as the ability to use Samsungs Allshare Cast Dongle (which I will be getting shortly- unless someone states something better to use)
I'm not looking to overclock it too much and would like a nice UI that's not like Touchwiz- unless I can have the ability to get rid of the amount of homescreens.
I'd like to be able to change Grid size as I dislike how the screen is just crammed into the middle. And if you've done this- what's the best size/ setup?
I'd also like MultiView for EVERY app- is that possible? And if so- do I just use the apk tool? or does a ROM already include that feature?
Also- besides S Note- what's the best notebook/ writing app you use? I've seen Papyrus, LectureNotes, and a few others. Looking for something really stable and that doesn't mess up with "hand/ palm support" because I've noticed that even S Note sometimes gets finicky when trying to write like an actual pad. I know I know- it's not perfected yet- but it's still good to ask
Thanks for your time and looking. Can't wait to dive into this and see what this bad boy can do.

Wasn't trying to offend- just listed credentials to see what ROMs would meet them- sorry for any offensive content.
Secondly- was just inquiring what apps were good for writing- besides snotes etc.
Also- whats the best resolution wallpaper to get for our tablets? I've tried 2048x2048 and used gallery to resize it- and tried 1280x800- but neither look right to me

I found that Write in combination with Rotation Lock Adaptive creates the best writing experience for me. Write can be setup to ignore all touch, while still recognizing the s-pen. However your hand may still touch the buttons on the bottom of the phone. To take care of that is where Rotation Lock Adaptive comes in. Set it for reverse portrait and the buttons get moved to the top and there is nothing for your hand to touch and mess thing up. I also added a BoxWave anti-glare screen protector which adds a little tooth to the screen so the pen feels more like it is writing on paper.

Sense keyboard is proprietary and would require a direct port unless it could be found in the Google Play Store. Have you tried other keyboards like Swiftkey or some other keyboards. They tend to work out quite well in general and should thus pursued if you have the monetary funds to do so.

I have SwiftKey, but not to my liking, no more than sense. pulse each time a key is pressed also another. I think it's a matter of getting used to! Finally ..
I just rooted my phone and installed cwm recovery, now I want to flash custom rom, I also want to keep the S Note, Action Memo app. Any suggestions? Sorry I am new to all of these. Thank you in advance for your help.

As per some rule you can't ask for best ROM/ Kernel suggestion, but I like stock based ROMs, so I use the Deodex version of OF3 ROM, Deodex because I need Xposed. If you don't need that you can use Odex version.
This is the one I use, http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-note-3/development/rom-qs-n9005-lp-t3037655
OF3 however is not latest, OGX (X=something) is, but I don't care really. The above ROM doesn't come with a lot of options, just very few features added, but that's what I like, as close as possible to stock ROM. If you don't need Xposed and need a ROM with lots of features then look for AryaMod.

Not true anymore, mods changed it
They even made a front page discussion about people favourite
To advise someone what is the best, Is based on there own experience and opinion.
My own experience may be mainly gaming.....
Or it may be with Business models, Each depends on the type of feedback, result in complete different ROMS....
Can you see where am going with this?
I can answer you question, but only Vague:
S note and Action Memo - Why????
The reason i ask, if you want to keep them, Then you can only go with a TW based ROM. This is the TouchWiz (Samsung ROM)
If you dnot have a valid reason, other than you use them.
The a CM or any AOSP Based ROM, Does not have ANY TouchWiz Feature, For example, the Spen, The Menu, The functions.
But there are additional Apps that are matched in results or in some cases better (As they have been developed on the feedback of the note users)
S-Pen command is an example.
Then you can get addition application like: Fiinote that are just as good as Action Memo, Or EverNote or OneNote.
The LIST Goes one.
My one advise to you, Is to enjoy flashing and try them all, See what grabs your attention, Every person on XDA is different, and this is possibly why one of the rules come in about BEST ROMS.
Its too much optionion based, and everyone has there own option.
I hope this is not a complete pointless post, and helps a little.
But there is no harm in trying, and you will have alot of Fun seeing each developers take on it
Thank you so much @dave7802 for your help. I really appreciate it and it all makes sense. Everybody has own different preference. That is what I am going to do, I will try different roms and see where to stick. Glad I have this XDA app on my phone and receiving info and answers from you guys. Thanks again sir. Cheers!

Okay, that's excellent! I never did like that decision anyway. Thanks for informing mate.
My advice is Audax L. Stock based, reliable, always up the date, all mods which are neccessary and useful, easy flashable with aroma installer and has own costum kernel which is always up the date and really good for performance and battery consuming. Just try it.

Do the non-tw Roms support pressure sensitivity through ie; sketchbook? It's been a long time since an official lollipop update. .
I'm usin' the DarkLord s6 port V2.0 from several weeks as daily driver, it's good and reliable, no problems exept a minor bug with fast notes.

How do you guys stay on TW?
I love it, the features dont get me wrong, Some of them are very nice.
But the speed is notability different coming from using CM for more than 12 months.
Small things like, Notification Status Pull Down, the delay from swiping down, to it appearing is noticeable slow.
App Drawer, open close applications, Accessing menus, All have a delayed response. Multi Tasking loading.
I have tried the following ROMs,
Dark Lord S6 and Note variants.
AryaMod V7.2
Norma Rom
Alliance
The BEST in regards to speed, But still noticeable is: http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-note-3/development/rom-qs-n9005-lp-t3037655
As another user advised (Thanks)
This is no slander, As i do enjoy touchwiz, But i will admit, i am a speed freak, When i want someone i want it yesterday.

To me CM/AOSP has too many missing UI/UX features, requiring more swipes and clicks for activities I perform. Also, once one has actually grown accustomed to TW, it requires time to learn. If you're busy in your life, you don't want to be non-performing and slow for 2 weeks when learning the ins-and-outs of a new ROM/UI/UX variant.
That's why I have not switched.
I accept the slowness of TW, but it's not too slow for me (and I multi-task a lot).
I'd be willing to try out CM builds, but it seems impossible to find realisting non-fanboy reviews of CM builds on Note3, that detail:
- what real bugs there are (sometimes the small annoying bits in Wifi/BT/sleep/battery can drive one inside, even if 90% of casual users don't notice them)
- what Pen/TW/camera module features does one has to give up when switching to non-Samsung ROM? CM/AOSP ROMs will always be missing Samsung libs, apps and as such many hardware supported features due to their generic nature. I have not seen an honest list that just lists all the missing features from Note3 CM/AOSP roms, without resorting to "nobody uses that feature anyway, so I didn't list it" type of comments.
Just backing up, cleaning up, flashing, re-installing, re-merging apps and data is so much work (full work day for me) that I just don't have time for that, unless I know what kind of deep doo-doo I'm going to end up with.
This, imho, is one of the reasons preventing some users from switching over, but yes, Samsung's "we are too lazy to update Note 3" policy is really pushing me towards CM builds
BTW, to not be totally off-topic I'm using DarkLord 5.0.2 build and it is so-so. Sometimes it lags badly. Sometimes it closes background apps by itself (way too fast, even with no huge multitasking). I'd like to get it patched and update to 5.1.1. but until Samsung releases the 5.1.1 ROM for Note 3, no such luck.
How do I stay on TW?
The simple answer is, I bought a Note 3, there are quite a lot of micro/ small things which make it a Note, and as long as I want to use a Note phone like a Note phone, I would use TouchWiz, end of story.
I am a professional. I need quite a lot of things. If I were a kid with no life other than to show off to friends hey look I have the latest version of Android, do you have it?, and take pride in that, probably I would go the AOSP route. Thank me that I can't be one of those low IQ people! :laugh: If you don't have the brain to process what's good/ complete and what's pathetic/ half baked nonsense, then anything which comes with a decent enough packing will look good to you.
