I'm running MIUI also and no words show up at all, says it's for a different device like it's not licensing correctly or something..

Should I take the no reply as a NO?

Also, I dont know who all cares, but I have found another app that works like Swype maybe even better. Its called SlideIT Keyboard. Little expensive, but i've been using the 3 day trial for a while hoping a ginger bread comes out for my phone (VZW Droid A855). Just uninstall it and re-install it once it expires lol

Kellex, this is new, as far as I can tell… at least judging by version numbers. I just downloaded the new installer/app and had no problem getting the thing up and running. Just last week — perhaps 10 days ago, at most — this was an ordeal. The new version (2.15.56.14870) appears to be more robust, and they’re no longer suffering these annoying problems that forced you to wipe all traces of Swype from your phone before installing a new version.

not Freudian, just ignorant! to me Alpha sounded like it would be more refined than Beta

I guess I should have noted that I am running MIUI 0.11.26.1.

Is this a Freudian slip or are you just making a comment as to how long Swype has been in beta and maybe they'll be going backwards to an Alpha instead of moving forward to a full release? Haha. If not, Alphas are prior to Betas not the other way around.

for me the words show but the placement is wrong. If I type something then decide I want to speak the rest, it puts the spoken part at the beginning, not at the point of the cursor.

Running on OG Droid, anyone else have trouble with the speak to text words not showing up in the text box? Seems to accept what is spoken, but the words never show.

This was the first version I've been able to install on my OG Droid for the last few updates. Those all failed. This one worked on the first try. I had been using one of those themed versions until this one came out.

The Droid X users can't update the beta because it's a BETA. A test release. You will most likely get an update when it is ready for public release and not until then.

Is this for all Android devices?

I have a Fascinate with 2.1 (still) will this update work on my device?

The Fascinate came with Swype so 'm not sure…

Thanks

Swype says it’s not really a beta. It is a test version. They only give the release versions to companies who have paid to put it on their phones stock.
