It's free.. better than the $5 I paid for it almost 2 weeks ago. Nothing to lose to try it.

Hey, I like that better than swype also. Thanks for the heads up on that!

I was a little skeptical because I have been using swype and even got my friends to convert....well now I have to get them to use this because it's so much faster and from the few texts i've sent its really accurate...I like it!

Edit: After further usage I concluded that swype had more options for example faster punctuation inputs and other little things like that...ah well

I installed rom today and i dont have the phone. it tells me application not installed and i also get an applicaion force close message anytime i unlock phone or click on an icon. Any suggestions greatly appreciated

Not trying to force this on you, but can you explain the faster punctuation inputs on swype, because swype and flext9 are about the same when it comes to punctuation... for example if you want a @ sign on flext9 you press and hold the letter "c" and for swype you press and hold the letter "w"... this is of course if you are the "abc" keyboard and not on "123" (flext9) or "sym" (swype)

well, for example, i am a spelling guy so when I put like my sister's, flext9 puts sisters and sister's is an option in the t9 suggestion box.

Swype will allow the 's to be put on by just going from the apostrophe to the s key and it will automatically add it to the end of the word.

Also at the end of sentences you just swipe from the z key to the space and it puts in an exclamation automatically. works with comma, period, and question mark... to me its those few things that just put swype a little bit over flext9.

Granted, flext9 has like 4 ways to input text which is cool. It's just I have been using swype for so long it's at where i want it to be. Swype is designed to be used for a long period of time and swype learns which words you use the most so when I trace a word it will put the most used word down which is most likely the one I want. Don't know if flext9 is the same but I don't wanna go through all that again.

Only thing that sucks about both is you can't delete words already programmed into the dictionary already. I mean there are some weird words in Swype I just wonder "Does anyone really use Hullo instead of hello" or something like that.

Also, I just found this

Sounds like a bad flash. If you're coming from another Rom, full wipe. And if restoring anything through Titanium, only restore apps and app data. So try again.

Deck...very impressed with 1.2b everything works flawlessly and fast...I love it! Thanks for all the great hard work! The only thing is I'm using Tiamat 3.3.7 SBC cause the battery life it yields is unmatched, in my opinion. Just when I didn't think it could get any better, BAM, 1.2b...your best work yet! Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!!!

The HD recording profile just shows a froze picture upon starting the record. And does not record any video. Anyone else got it to work?

unfortunately you need to lower the resolution to high according to reports. It will work fine then. good luck.

also, Im getting the 4g starting a boot even though I turned it off. did a full wipe before flashing as well. Not a big deal but figured I would report it. Great rom Deck.

Now that makes since and I understand why you like swype. I remember that option was available for Swype. The one thing I don't like about swype that all others (shapewriter, flext9, etc) seem to do, and that is with Swype to type in a word with double letters like "look" you have to circle over the letter "o". The others do not... I have tried to go back to swype and used it on my wife's epic but I had lost the feel for it.

that is pretty cool video for the swypeing folks out there...
