Adding long words/strings to Swype

[Apache]

So on my old Droid X I could select a long string -- for example droidxusernyc@gmail.com -- press the Swype button, and add that to the Swype dictionary. So in the future I could Swype that entire letter string at once. This was fantastic.

But I can't figure out how to do it on my new T-bolt -- anyone???

type out what you want. Then long press on the word and select all. Then press the swype button and it will add to dictionary.

On the T-bolt, if I tap type out a word and then long press on it, I get 3 choices -- Select Text, Select All, and Input Method. Then I Select All. Then I hit the Swype key and... nothing. And I know the word is not added b/c when I try to swype it after that it doesn't work. The method you outlined worked fine... on my previous device the Droid X. But the T-bolt appears to be a different story...

Any T-bolt user out there who have figured this out?

This works on my thunderbolt. I know because I did it when you posted your question.

since you guys are talking about Swype, i take it swype is working fairly good for you.

i only ask cause i cant seem to get it to work all that well. i end up having to type each word out manually cause i just get a highlighted outline aroud the keyboard when i try to swype

I take it you didnt sign up for the beta testing over on the swype website? You just downloaded the APK file right?

I downloaded the beta from the swype website. I get the same problem after restarts and thought it was a known problem. You have to switch to another input method and then back to swype, and it'll work.

Interesting. Would you mind outlining exactly what you are experiencing, step by step? Try and add the string... androidforums2011@gmail.com. Let me know how you do it...
