Problem installing a different keyboard

[jchill]

I am having a problem installing a different keyboard like swype on my evo. I'm using the latest fresh rom fully rooted but when i install a keyboard and go in settings and try to change to the new keyboard it just gives me the 3 options qwerty, phone keypad and compact qwerty am i doin something wrong? Anyone else having this issues? Thanks in advance!!!

And I did use the search before i posted lol!!!!

Have you gone to a text input sceen (I use Google Search on the home screen), tapped and then tapped and held the finger to the screen for a a couple of seconds, noticed "input method", tapped input method and seen the keyboard of your heart displayed? If not, try it.

Hey I have both a new Android (EPIC Sprint) and Win 6.1 (ATT FUZE), I was so impressed by SWPYE built-in to the EPIC, I searched the Internet for a Win version - gues what, search on SWYPE keyboard VGA CAB. (A Win mobile install file is usually a cab, orignially cab was Pocket PC). Voila, here's a link, it even works on old Win 6.1 FUZE.. be careful your Winmo phone supports VGA, there's a QVGA version for old phones. Just search for Swype keyboard QVGA CAB. Here's the VGA version:
swype cab vga - download - (1 files)

Op after installing a new keyboard you have to go to settings, language and keyboard, and enable the new keyboard there first before it shows as a selectable option to switch to.
