Swype lag on SC 2.8
I have been using the SC series pretty much since the day JT started making them, and have had pretty good luck so far. After updating to SC 2.8, i have noticed a really weird lag show up in swype that makes it basically unusable in certain circumstances.
If i go directly into SMS from the lock screen (via epic unlock) and try to type a reply, the 'word line' is delayed and broken up. Like if i put my finger down on C and move up, it wont start drawing the line until i am a few letters off C. If i try to go slow, it still does it. It will then plod out letters almost at random as i move my finger around instead of waiting for me to lift it to guess a word.
Here is the weird part: If I hit the back button til im at the home screen, or just happen to open sms from the home screen, swype will work fine. Its like the keyboard is in some sort of trance if SMS is started from the lock screen. It wont even work for a word like "no". If i hit the back button til i get to the home screen, and then open SMS again, it immediately works great.
Any guesses on why this is? I have been on 2.8 for a while and have just sort of put up with it. It may have been going on in 2.7.1 (i ran that for all of a day and a half) so maybe it was in earlier versions.
