How can I turn off swype

[Hello Droid]

I know you can remove it when composing an email message by touching and holding the screen where you enter your text. A window opens, then select input method. You now have the option to use swype or android keyboard. The only drawback is that you lose the sound when typing and the layout is a bit different.

I'm not sure if this is a global change or just for that message.

Home button> Menu button> Settings> Language & Keyboard> Deselect Swype

Now you won't have to worry about Swype appearing ever again unless you turn it back on.

I go to the Language & Keyboard and I do not see a deselect button? It isn't allowing me to go to the Android Keyboard?

Helppppp

Yeah you will just have to long press your text input box and select new input method by clicking the Android keyboard option.

There isn't a checkbox next to Swype?

I never got used to Swype... had it back on the original Droid 1 (the off-market download), but eventually went back to the regular keyboard format...it just feels better to me...

My wife loves it though, and says the only reason I do not like it is because I really do not know how to type and don't instinctively know the QWERTY setup (may be some truth to that! LOL ).

i installed the swype and I am not allowed to type. any help.

 

[furbearingmammal]

Could you be a bit more specific?

The one I saw that would take learning is 8pen. It's sorta like trying to drive a Model T even if you know how to use a manual transmission; nothing is where you thought it would be. [video=youtube;q3OuCR0EpGo]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q3OuCR0EpGo[/video]

Myself, I like Swype, but I understand it's not for everyone. Good thing we can make a choice.

Look up blindtype. Nuff said.

I'm sick of waiting for blindtype. I want to know what googles doing with it.

Implementing it into their Gingerbread or Honeycomb stock keyboard.
