I have swype installed on my phone, but when I press and hold on the text field (what I've read here to switch keyboards) the only thing that comes up is 'insert quick text'. I tried switching it in settings > language & keyboard but nothing worked in there either.

I saw a thread about this the other day, and cant find it for the life of me. basically, it lets you use swype or something in portrait, and switches to a multitouch keyboard in landscape. any idea what it was called?

View 8 Replies View RelatedIts awful. I can't get settled in. I keep changing my keyboard from stock, to swype, to swiftkey and now back to droidx latest version. Hate to say it but as of know I'm digging droid x, until I go back to stock in a few more days. Its just amazing that I can't make up my keyboard mind. Swype was the bomb, until I make just one mistake.

View 7 Replies View Relatedne0fhyk has created an app (root required) that will allow you to choose which keyboard you want to use in each orientation. i've always felt the stock keyboard was far superior in landscape mode, while swype was ideal for portrait.

View 1 Replies View RelatedOk So I am running 2.2 (RUU) and I was wondering
1. Should I switch S to ON - is there some issue (besides that VZW may notice on a return) to NOT keep S-off? Does it create a security hole?
2. If I am S-on can I still do Nandroid backups and restores/flash new ROMS (I think no)
I've had my D1 since it's original launch. Love the phone and especially now that it's rooted. The problem is the slider is becoming loose. I'm going to get it replaced and am really considering the Dinc.I've found that I rarely use the slide out keyboard on the D1 because of the Swype keyboard love that thing.I'm looking for some insight on the Dinc and especially how it compares to the D1.How does Sense work? Does it slow down the phone? How has the update process gone so far? Anything else I need to know?
View 8 Replies View RelatedI did a search and couldn't find exactly what Im looking for. If there is a thread out there with this info, please let me know so we can remove this thread. I rooted my Incredible yesterday after a couple months of contemplating it (I know ) And I think I want to try Virtuous ROM. So say I go to Virtuous, but end up wanting to go back to how I have it now (stock, root, froyo). Is that going to be hard? Is that what the nandroid backup is for? Say I go to Virtuous, then decide I wanna try Cyanogen. Do I just flash the new one after doing a Nandroid, then if I dont like Cyanogen I can just open the backup and bam it's back to Virtuous? Nub questions I know, but Im skerred. Last night I installed the rotary lockscreen from Virtuous on my stock rooted rom and I really like it. If I decide I dont like it, how hard is it to change something as small as an addon, rather than the whole ROM?

View 8 Replies View RelatedOn the 2nd of this month i switched to the Eris and I absolutely love ALMOST everything about it. The main problems I have are the lag and the no flash. The lag is a lot worse than i thought it would be. I didn't think I would mind no flash when I bought it but didn't realize how much I was going to miss not having it. From what i have read it seems like the incredible would fix both of these problems. I got the phone for only $29 because i signed up for a new two year contract. What are my opinions for switching to an incredible since i will still be in the first 30 days when the incredible is released. about how much extra will it cost me? Thanks for any tips or advice.

View 12 Replies View RelatedI searched online and tried fooling around with the phone forever, but was wondering why the side volume controls control the media volume and not the ringer volume when on the main screen. Any idea if there is a way to switch this?

View 8 Replies View RelatedI'm new to Android development. I'm trying to use the orientation change to switch between two activities. My idea is to use three Activities one TabActivity and a normal Activity. Here is some pseudo code:
public class Main extends Activity{
// this is the entry point into my app
@Override
public void onCreate(...){
if(this.getResources().getConfiguration().orientation == Configuration.ORIENTATION_LANDSCAPE){
// Start Activity1
} else { //Start Activity2}..............
I'm taking a different approach. As i need a TabActivity, because i want to be able to start different activities in my tabs (I think i have to use a TabActivity in this case). I've edited the Manifest.xml and added android.configChanges="orientation" for the TabActivity and the second Activity. Then I've overridden the onConfigurationChanged() functions. With this approach I'm able to switch from landscape (this is the "normal" activity") to portrait (the TabActivity). The other way round does not work and i don't know why yet. I've exactly the same onConfigurationChanged functions (Copy & Pasted) and only changed the essential parts. Overriding the onConfigurationChanged of the Activities started in the tabs has no effect, too.
Can someone recommend a good app to automatically toggle wifi based on when I leave my house, which is the only place I use WiFi.

If the review is as great as Inc. Consider me gone! Im going with the Droid X.

View 4 Replies View RelatedIf you have an original unedited APN for the Incredible, please post it. I believe the app Quick Settings added the [disabled] to the APN file when I attempted to use the Mobile Data Switch. See below. Now Quick Settings Says "No APN Configured". I've emailed the dev. If so, I will remove the [disabled] to restore the file to its original state. Everything seemed to be working fine despite the [disabled] setting though, but I didn't test MMS. Current (modified by Quick Settings?) APN File from my Verizon HTC Droid Incredible:
<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8' standalone='yes' ?>
<apns>
<apn name="Production" numeric="00000" mcc="000" mnc="00" apn="1[disabled]" user="null"
server="null" password="null" proxy="null" port="null" mmsproxy="null" mmsport="null"
mmsprotocol="2.0" mmsc="http://mms.vtext.com/servlets/mms" type="mms[disabled]" />
</apns>
I used APN Backup & Restore to save the file to the SDCard so I could view and edit the file using a text editor (such as notepad) in windows. You can get APN Backup & Restore on the market for free.
