Swype/trace built into htc keyboard

[zxphenomenalxz]

Little tip and secret that I found and I haven't seen anything on a site highlighting this. If you go into the settings and language and keybaord and input settings there will be an option to enable trace. Once you do this then Viola. You have swype built right in

Awesome. Thanks for the tip. Trying it now...

I just tried this out, I find that swype does a much better job of figuring out what I mean to be swyping, where as the HTC keyboard with trace on ends uo spitting out a bunch of typos.

Still a nice feature.
thanks

A lot of people found that this "feature" didn't initially work for them(as in broken). So that's why you haven't/won't see many posts about it unless you go back to release.

I prefer SwiftKey's approach anyways: once it learns your favorite phrases they become lightning fast to enter.
