Entering Text Using Swype

Swype™ is the default text input method that allows you to enter
a word by sliding your finger or stylus from letter to letter, lifting
your finger between words. SWYPE uses error correcting
algorithms and a language model to predict the next word.
SWYPE also includes a touch predictive text system.

The on-screen keyboard options are different between the
Android keyboard and Swype on-screen input methods.

Enabling and Configuring SWYPE

If you configure another text input method (Samsung keypad) you
must re-enable SWYPE before using the SWYPE keyboard.

When SWYPE is enabled there can also be normal keyboard
