Just release the phone from your fist first before shaking, mkay? Just now the grips loosens and the phone ends up against a wall.

Haha sure.

Change to Swype. Since the recent update it's a better keyboard in quite a few ways.

SwiftKey has a swipe feature as well, which I don't enjoy. I'll try it out though thanks. I think I just need to reset the personal dictionary.

I'm not recommending Swype because of the swiping. It has more intelligent predictions, doesn't make it difficult to enter email and web addresses and alphanumeric words, has very handy punctuation shortcuts, also supports multiple languages simultaneously (incl. Afrikaans), has better looking keyboards, gives you control over when words are added to your dictionary and (like Swiftkey) allows you to disable swiping.

Oh I see, thought you could only swipe. SwiftKey can also do Afrikaans and English at the same time. Just for your reference. But thanks for the tip, will check it out.

I know Swiftkey can do languages. I've used Swiftkey for years. Swype took a while to catch up in that department in fact. It's not about specs on paper, it's about how functional the keyboard is to use. I'm just saying you won't be giving up any basic features if you switch to Swype.

I see, good to know that you're an old SwiftKey user. It sound interesting, let me check it out. SwiftKey seriously lacks with the entering of URL's.

The automatic punctuation is also a pain sometimes.

I love Swiftkey and have used it for years, but entering an email address with a "." is a real pain in the arse.

Agreed, luckily my contact are saved and I do most of my day to day stuff on the laptop.

Hi man

Any way that invite can be passed on to somebody else?

No sorry man had to claim it yesterday because of time. Register and spend some time here https://forums.oneplus.net/forums/invites/. I registered yesterday morning and received the invite in the afternoon. I'm just scared the phone I receive has some sort of problem and I cannot send it back under warranty in an easy and cost effective way. It's a shame because I would have liked this phone. The good 'ol SA tax is also pushing the price up :-(

I see.

Thanks anyway man.

I've registered this morning. Been following this phone for a few months though. I really regret not registering earlier though.

Did you do anything special to get the invite or did it just randomly get sent to you?
 
Got a 64gb sandstone black on its way :)

Hope everything is fine with it like no yellow bands etc but really looking forward to trying out cm11s
