Net counter won't record WiFi for me. Anyone know why my weather location won't show? It used to work but stopped now.

Also battery seems to drain fast. Coming from winmo is quite a learning curve.

I've installed different txt app but when I get a text I get two notifications, one on each app?

I too have the fact that net counter wont count wi-fi data. And also my weather app has been a bit screwy today.
 
When you first load the keyboard after install did you hold the bottom left key to choose input method then choose Swype keyboard?
 
If you add your city/town to the existing weather widget and then go to + -> Widget -> Clock -> Widget Style 3 you can add the clock as it looks on the default homepage AND you get the opportunity to select it to show you a specified city/town as opposed to your current location.

That, of course, only helps if you're at home and the current location is coming up as somewhere nearby rather than where you are which is what was happening to me.

I ain't a fan of it, too tricky to get used to. Trying to do i.e "too" is pretty difficult. But will keep at it as could see it being very very quick to type with.
 
Just in case you missed it, to do too you perform a loop on the o. Swype is great for texting, though I hope they include a toggle, so that you can switch to a normal keyboard quickly if you are inputting something complex like an email or password
 
You know you can still use Swype's keyboard as a normal keyboard? if you pretend you don't need to Swype it's just a more nicer HTC_IME keyboard.
 
I'm a swype lover. I find it so useful and easy to use. Sometimes, obviously it doesn't get the required words but it just brings a joy to typing long words :) it's very impressive!
 
just this second got swype working (i had downloaded the wrong file for my phone) and WOW! It is excellent.

On another note I rooted and went to 2.1 and have lost scummvm support (and have not finished monkey 3 :( )

Yep but I find that I often swype by mistake and its not as good as HTC_IME in my opinion.
 
I wish it had vibrate on button press when typing normally. I'm using it as my main keyboard for a while to see if I find it faster in the longrun.
 
Started getting used to swype and how quick I can string words together is just plain awesome. Nearly as quick as a full qwerty.

had a few plays testing accuracy and it aint quite there yet. But I still like it more and more I use it.
