One more thing I noticed, the Google app store says No Connection, and Retry. It won't connect. Amazon store connects, Chrome Browser, and Facebook all connect! Not sure what is happening.If this was a reply to me, and you are looking at the keyboard swiping, I have some additional info:
I installed the beta of Swype, and it worked for a few minutes before it showed that it was expired and would not run any longer.
But, while it worked it exhibited that same issue. It would show the swiping trails, but not accept the swipped word, no letters or anything, unless typed a single letter at a time.
I hope the extra info helps.
For this install I cleared cache and installed, I didn't do the factory reset, and wondering if I DO need to do that. Any ideas?
