There is a bug when you use wifi authentication box, where the box not disappear when you touch to write the password and the screen remain overlapping the keyboard, hiding the letters, making it difficult to write.

Moderator joined from Swype 2.1 for Symbian/Reviews/issue with pop-up windows placed above swype keyboard

After installing the latest version I encountered an issue when having to enter a password.
For example there is a pop-up window saying "key for WLAN" when trying to connect to an encrypted WLAN. Now I tap into the corresponding field and swype opens as it should, but the former pop-up window is now placed ABOVE the swype keyboard!
The swype keyboard is active for inputs, but I cannot see half of the keyboard because of the pop-up window asking for the key of the WLAN.
Any idea how to fix it? Reinstall didn't help.

I have the same problem (C7, firmware 25.007, installed on phone memory)

I have the same problem with pop-up window hovering over Swype keyboard when trying to input password for wifi access. However, I found out that the keyboard still works, even the portion covered by the pop-up window. Of-course one cannot see the letter he our she is pursuing until it has been pressed.

I'm using N8-00 (mea) running Symbian Anna (024.001} with latest firmware update.

Moderator joined from Swype 2.1 for Symbian/Bug reports/swype keyboard and wifi key

To write a wifi key like wpa preshared key the display box asking for the key is still on the screen and the swype keyboard is behind and cannot be used.

Moderator joined from Swype 2.1 for Symbian/Bug reports/Wi-fi entering code bug

I found Swype quite handful tool.Unfortunately I found also a serious bug.When you want to enter a preshared key to connect to a wi-fi spot, the window where you tap to enter the code doesn't disappear after the tapping and you type blindly.Therefore it pushes you to deactivate swype since it is quite disturbing.

same happens to me with anna OS in my N8 when i try to write the key for wifi conection

I have installed this app for it's support of Russian language typing. This part works very well. However, there is a problem with entering WiFi passwords like many others have reported. The "Enter WiFi password" box stays on top of the Swype keyboard making it impossible to use. Need a fix ASAP.

Found one problem ........When you go to the default Web browser and type a url nad hit the go button, it asks you for which type of conncetion you want to use for the browsing session (WLAN, Internet and WAP Services)....Now if you select WLAN a small pop-up window appears to enter the 'WEP Key for WLAN'.......When you tap on the text box to enter the WEP key, the Swype keyboard appears but, the small pop-up asking for the WEP key appears on top of it hiding the swype keyboard behind it.....But you can type through the pop-up window to the keyboard....But you cannot see the keys that lie under the window.... :(

However, the problem is solved, if I turn off swype....The default keyboard is working fine...

I am using Nokia N8-00 RM-596 running on Official Anna (came preloaded) and latest official software updates...

The Keypad dissapears when typing wi-fi key or F-Secure key. This is very dangerous, because once you lock your phone with F-Secure, is impossible to unlock! In my case, an error ocurred, and luckily anti-theft was forced to close. I had to uninstall it. I'm using Anna 025.007. Thanks

Moderator joined from Swype 2.1 for Symbian/Bug reports/Bug with Swype in WLAN wizard

Hi,

I have a bug on my N8 with this last version of Swype 2.01(4435).

When I'm searching a WLAN in the WLAN wizard and i click on the network that I want to connect. A window "pre-shared key for WLAN" is displayed and when I tap to write the WLAN key , the swype keyboard is shown but the window "Pre-shared key for WLAN" stays in place and covers the three quarters of swype keyboard.
With the native keyboard i don't have this problem, i think that problem is due by swype.

I use Nokia N8 with Symbian ANNA.

Please Swype team, look for resolve this bug.

Thanks

Where i can find version 2.0 it was working perfect.
i had to put the new version because i reset my phone :@

Same here, pretty bad bug :-(. I am on Nokia N8 and Symbian Anna. Otherwise, congratulations, great app, I love it.

Moderator joined from Swype 2.1 for Symbian/Bug reports/F-Secure+swype 2.01

Hello,
I'm using nokia n8+belle+swype 2.01 with F-Secure installed.
The problem is: when you use swype keyboard (no matter if it's landscape or portrait mode) and your phone is locked - you are UNABLE to unlock it.
Swype keyboard appears for a split-second and then disappears - so you can't type in your unlock code. Only way is to send an sms from 'trusted number' - but when someone don't have one - then there is no way to unlock it.
I do not know if the problem is: belle, Swype or F-Secure itself. I've contacted F-Secure but i'm writing it here too b/c it may be a swype's bug.

Sorry for my terrible english :>

Moderator joined from Swype 2.1 for Symbian/Bug reports/Can't write the key for a new wifi hotspot with skype

When adding a new wifi hotspot, the window asking for the new key (WEP/WPA) still appears above the swype keyboard, so it's impossible to type it (even letter by letter).
I had to come back to the default keyboard (thanks to swype 2 to allow it without rebooting) and then was able to type the key.

I'm using N8 with Anna (25.007)

WTF people, nokia employee already said they have fixed it few posts above. wait for a new version.

Hi everyone,

Thanks for your feedback on the wifi issue for our latest Beta. We've analyzed the problem, and have fixed it. Be on the lookout for our next Ovi Store release.

Swype On,

Moderator joined from Swype 2.1 for Symbian/Discussion/Works fine. Wlan PSK problem

Problems with WLAN PSK. All other input fields works fine.

The most likely reason attempt has not been made to fix it is because updating to Nokia Belle fixes the bug. That is phones running symbian (Nokia) Belle do not experience the same issue. They are probably biding their time for Nokia Belle update to be rolled out to existing symbian^3 devices.
I use a Nokia N8 and C7 both running symbian Belle. I had the bug when they were running symbian Anna, but once I upgraded to Belle, the bug was no longer there.

@mattleech
Please read the thread.
In post #30 you got the answer.
A solution has been found, and will be included in the upcoming version.

@draustine
Sorry for the misunderstanding, my reply was a somewhat late reply to post #68 by mattleech.

The issue is a bug in this beta-version of Swype. To my knowledge this bug affects both Anna and Belle (But not for all, see post #22 vs your #39).

I would say that it is fairly safe to assume that the promised fix has not only been tested with Anna but also at least Belle.

@draustine
I can confirm that this problem is partially fixed in Belle but not completely. The problem is resolved if you tap out the password but if you Swype the password the suggestion box is obscured.

Moderator joined from Swype 2.1 for Symbian/Bug reports/F-Secure Anti-Theft (startup) - invisible virtual Swype keyboard

When I changed the SIM card, the F-Secure anti-theft app asked for the unlock password. When I entered the text field, the Swype keyboard appears for a moment and then disappears. I am not able to see the virtual keyboard at all. But it works as though the keyboard is on, as in, I can type words, but am not able to see the virtual keyboard.

@EskeRahn
Yep, understood :)

I wasn't complaining, I was just giving feedback.

Happy days!

Any plans on actually releasing the fixed wifi version, seeing that its been fixed since 18th November according to Swype ??? Less than impressed

On Nokia N8 Symbian Anna WLAN key entering window is opened on top of the keyboard.

Moderator joined from Swype 2.1 for Symbian/Bug reports/Swype keyboard hidden when phone remote locked using F-Secure.

Hi,

I have just upgraded my Nokia C7-00 to Nokia Belle and did this by factory resetting my phone and deleting all files and then upgrading.

After the upgrade I reinstalled all applications, including Swype V2.1 Beta. All seems to be working ok but in testing F-Secure remote file locking I noticed that when you attempt to enter the unlock code the swype keyboard flashes up three times before disappearing completely.

The keyboard is still there in the background and can be used but as you can imagine this is very tricky.

Is this a known bug and will it be fixed by the final release?

Steps to recreate:
1) Enable F-Secure remote locking
2) Enable Swype Keyboard and reboot as necessary to ensure it is working ok first
3) Remote lock the phone
4) From the f_secure lock screen click on the password field to enter the code
5) Screen reformats (either in landscape or portrait mode) to make way for the Swype keyboard and it flashes up three times.
6) On entering the code, this is accepted and control of the phone is returned to you.

Kind Regards
Si

Forgot to add, I have Swype installed on the mass memory area (E: Drive) and no special language packs. Phone and Swype are set to UK English

I've had a couple of issues with Swype since migrating to Belle on my N8.
Today I had the same issue as smjohns. I sent a remote lock request to my phone while testing f-Secure. When I pressed the f-Secure unlock icon the Swype keyboard was displayed VERY briefly after which it dissappeared. It took me a couple of minutes to realise that the Swype keyboard was active but not shown. As you can imagine, it's not really easy to enter a security code when you have no idea where any of the keys are. I created a small grid on a piece of paper which I then used to map the invisible keys and was able to enter the security code and unlock the phone. The next option would have been to #WIPE# the phone and start from scratch which would have been EXTREMELY annoying.
Unrelated to the f-Secure issue is a persistent problem I've been experiencing since upgrading to Belle where the Swype keyboard occasionally dissappears and a pointer is displayed instead. The pointer is uncontrollable and what's strange is that one input field on a screen will experience the problem but none of the others do. Jumping from field to file doesn't fix the problem, every time I go back to the field experiencing the problem it re-materialises. Exiting the application and re-starting it always (at least so far) fixes the problem.

Seriously now, is a new version of Swype for S^3 ever going to be released?

[Edit] Sorry, should have posted this to Swype general discussion
