I just installed swype and it works fine except I have to put in the space, in the settings I have it set to auto-space. any thoughts.
 
I don't have to put in a space. I had that problem for a bit but it went away on its own. I'm not sure if a few reboots or accessing the swype settings menu fixed it. Unfortunately it appears as though blue box issue that plagued my incredible happens on the TB too, although it's been intermittent.

I've used swype for a very long time and it's really fast, fun, stable & accurate.

I had the same problem you describe (exactly) on two phones. In each case I removed it, rebooted, did a clean install which fixed it.

Go to Swypes site and watch the 2 min tutorials. Well worth it. I'm even faster because of it. Faster than when I used a BlackBerry (for years).

Cheers :)

I downloaded this version , it does not have a dedicated icon for voice and when I press menu with the keyboard up there is NOT A mic icon there.
 
I was using swype, but if i mistype a word then double click to select a different word the HTC text input pops up "copy" and "cut" icons over the word selection. Any way to turn that off so I can use swype?

I dont know about turning copy off, but you can just single click in the word, then click the swype help button. that still brings up the other word options
 
I downloaded Swype, but it wouldn't work on my phone. A window popped up that said that Swype was supported only by other handsets or something like that. Every time I tried to write a word, they keyboard just flashed and made a beeping noise.
 
Hold your finger on the word until is says select text, and select it. Then press the swype blue S button. It should ask if you want to add the word to the dictionary.
 
Just to toss this out (and I was out and about so I haven't had a chance to try to figure it out), but I run Go Launcher, and there was an update to that (and I believe Go Contacts as well) that I updated today, and it broke my Swype beta :( I get the trace, but no words appear. I'm going to try to reinstall, maybe it just needs that. I just got home, so we'll see. Not sure if anyone else has run into similar issues. It was working great the last two days, but after today, just..nadda.

EDIT: Just got it re-working again. Didn't take anything major. Went into the Keyboard settings, disabled Swype, restarted the phone. Made sure it was still on the default keyboard after that, went back to the Swype Installer app in the phone, and opened that. As it was still there, it asked if I wanted to Enable Swype, so I clicked yes, and all was well. Apparently just a sort of soft reset on Swype was all it needed.
