Default [Q] FlexT9 Theme

Is anyone using FlexT9 on the Nexus? I was having problems with Swype being too buggy so I figured I'd give FlexT9 a shot. It seems to work really well but it's horrifically ugly. Is there an ICS theme anywhere?

Mods, this isn't really a Nexus specific question, maybe it's in the wrong forum? Feel free to move it somewhere as long as it's in a place where people will see it

Try deleting any current version of Swype beta (and the installer), then go back to Swype's beta page and download the new installer - this will in turn pull down the new Swype beta. Nice improvement - new features, smoother and so far I've run into no bugs...

Just tried that. Seems a lot more fluid and I'm not having issues when I move the cursor around in the text boxes. Thanks!

Is this swype beta version expire like it constantly did with my Incredible?

Yes...this will expire, don't remember how long. As well as being smoother, the other features are cool too, definitely worth reading the release info and trying all the features out.

Back to being my favorite keyboard. Current wish list:

- Fix spacing after period
- Allow use of native ICS voice input that types as you speak instead of Dragon
- Skins!
- Add a ".com" key

This is so freaking annoying. Why can't they release the app just like normal? What's with this beta method that requires users to jump through hoops? Remember back when we had to actually request an invite to get a login?!

I like FlexT9 a lot more than Swype.

But yeah, I'd like to see this, too.
