Has anybody else noticed quick graphical glitches when typing with the latest version of swiftkey? When rapid typing there is a quick flash glitch on the keyboard. It's not a rom issue as i have seen this happen on both meanrom and tranquility now both running stock kernel.
hrmm, Idk I havent noticed that with swiftkey at all. this has turned into my daily driver keyboard, absolutely love it :good:
I'll be damn, so that's what's causing it. I just got a replacement evo on Friday and for the life of me I couldn't figure out why my screen would glitch like it was(It would only happen when I am typing a text). I was ready to through this phone up against the wall until I read this thread. So I decided to use swype and the HTC keyboard and the glitching stopped. I feel so much better now knowing its not the phone. I also have a gnex but it's not doing it on that phone.

Guys, just wanted to share- yesterday after installing swiftkey x phone froze a few times, did factory reset- everything is perfect, tried installing it today few moments after it was done, while selecting it as the default keyboard - same thing display turns off while the captive buttons are on.
Yeah, I had to uninstall it cuz after I installed it, my sdcard would unmount itself out of no where, and I would lose 3d both in the YouTube app and the green hornet movie. I've had this phone since last month and never did that ever happen. Led me to believe that that version of swiftkey at least wasn't playing nice with my phone at all.

That's odd. I've been using it since it first came out. Never had a problem with any version of the app.
I tested it for 30 nuns or so and it did well enough. I liked the colors and prediction but i can type faster on default. Plus the buttons are too small lol. Didn't see any crashes though.

No problem here. Used it to reply here.

Maybe it sounds crazy, but where did you get the application from, i got it from amazon, maybe something to do with that (although i doubt that)
Weird been using it since it first came into beta then bought it they day it became paid in the Market, Haven't had a single problem with it. I like Swiftkey X better then the stock gingerbread keyboard and I thought no keyboard could ever beat that one. I hope you can get it figured out.
no problem here either
They just pushed a new swift key update out. Try that maybe that will help

Works great for me I've been using it and earlier versions no problem. I have a feeling your having a different problem.
No problems here. I've been using SwiftKey for almost a year, first on my OG Evo and now my 3D. Maybe it has something to do with downloading from Amazon. I got mine through the Android Market. Did they ever figure out how you update an app you downloaded from Amazon?
Did anyone use Swiftkey back when each button would contain 2 letters and you could swipe to one side to choose the letter you wanted? The buttons were much bigger in that version.
The buttons are tiny in the current version. I really like the old version with 2 letters per button.
I am not sure but I tried putting it back on and got different wierd problems uninstall, and everything is back to normal

Yeah that bug started happening to me to (the one about losing 3d in the youtube and other applications) but I have no idea if it is because of this... I also have the version from the market place... So idk
I've had no problems with SwiftKey. I've been running it since the day the 3D came out.

I haven't had any problems at all I've been using it since it was the regular SwiftKey so. I had a free upgrade to "X" and its awesome maybe it's the amazon version.
Bang.... That's the sound of my shooter.
been using swiftkey since my evo4g days .. no troubles at all
No trouble here either. Used the beta of X. Then back to regular and back on to X when Amazon had it free. BTW original was an Amazon DL. Sorry your having trouble.
Good luck
Been bugging me since I got this phone I just never seen anyone talk about it. Does YouTube lag everyone else as much as me? Pretty sure my EVO and EVO shift never lagged like this phone that is mire powerful does.

What you mean it lags ? Like it doesn't loaf or going to landscape to portrait , well and update has come out since the 3D was released so Idk if the update is the one messing up with your phone in my end it works fine

Like scrolling around the comments is slow, or pulling down my notification bar. I've had this problem since day 1 and now I still have it up to date and on every rom I've used.

No I do not have those problems at all and I don't have them now with myns ROM, I have no idea what could be causing yours

I type really fast and I can't find a keyboard that keeps up with me. I've tried swift key, as well as 5 other apps. Its weird because swift key keeps up with me on my dads evo 3d. Is this screen just not as responsive or something?

I've been using smart keyboard by dexilog since i got my phone. You can try it out if you haven't already. As for the screen, i haven't had any issues typing so far. Besides that you may want to look into the new swiftkey beta thats been out for a while and see if that makes a difference.
Honestly I have noticed the same thing. It seems to hang no matter which keyboard I use. Definitely can't type as quick as I did on my iPhone. Try clearing up RAM. Seems to help out a lot. Background processes can affectively the performance of the aftermarket keyboards.

Affect* Damn autocorrect. Haha.

You can try disabling haptic feedback. It helps quite a bit on keyboards.
Try latest swiftkey... Very very impressed with it.!!

Dumb question, but your phone came with Swype...have you tried it? Once you make friends with that method, it's insanely fast.
This is a little of topic but many of us use swiftkey and i thought this will interesting for some us... SwiftKey flow beta is going to be out in less than 24hrs on the swiftkey page

Got an email last week concerning flow, does that mean I should be checking my inbox?

I got the email sometime last night. Works great for the most part. Freezes at long sentence a lot though and just stops trying to make it out. Like all of a sudden "I GIVE UP!" but it's a beta can't hassle it too much.
Very nice. I'm already ready to ditch Swype

I am loving this so far. Swiftkey has always been great but this makes them almost untouchable now. I wonder who will buy them up now.
P .S. I don't know how long the sentences have to be to make it lock up but I wrote this whole thing in flow and it seems to be doing it just fine.

Not one lockup here
Took me about 30 tries to download the language pack, and but finally got it. I like it so far.

Been rocking it for about half the day and it is pretty cool keyboard. I like how you can pick different themes and the flow input is pretty cool looking

Been using swift key a long time, definitely like flow.. But it isn't as good as swype "used" to be. Flow struggles with a lot of words that have back to back same letters like "kiss".. It also struggles swiping words I added to my dictionary.
Sent from my EVO using xda premium
I hate that in flow mode you can't swipe backwards to delete the previous word or swipe downward to hide the keyboard.
I think SwiftKey is fine the way it is without flow, I'm just way faster and more accurate at tapping. If you are using two thumbs then you can tap letters on the far left of the keyboard, then far right, and far left again very quickly (like typing "mama" = taptaptaptap) and with flow you have to travel the length of the keyboard three times.
Anyway that's my 2ยข, I'm using the SwiftKey Beta but I have that flow sh*t turned off.
Sent from my EVO
I'm also using SwiftKey minus the flow. Not a big fan of swiping, because my thumbs are so big I can't really see where in at on the keyboard. The keyboard itself is really nice though, prediction and auto correct are really good too.

Anybody else have the opportunity to try this new SwiftKey out?
Super cool and pretty..
Just installed and it is more lagged than SwiftKey 3 was.. Surely slower than the JB keyboard..
The thing I liked most about 3 was that it seemed real responsive...
OF course i understand it is still beta..
Okay update:
*I don't work for SwiftKey or anything Btw.
But I made SwiftKey A system app and did a reboot. Now **** is moving smooth..
Love it. Very close call with the Android 4.2 keyboard.. Love them both..
Sent from my Amaze 4G using xda app-developers app
Never had to convert it to a system app, it is smooth and fast enough for me. I'm loving this keyboard! I will for sure be purchasing when it gets an official release. I haven't used swype in a long time but this feels much better.
Sent from my Amaze
It's okay, I don't know swype is still best at what it does. All swift key needs is multiple options to pick from, it only gives you one option.
