In my article yesterday about new features of Android 4.2 I said that Android has introduced gesture based typing.Well it sounds similar to Swype but it is much faster.Obviouslt,this is a feature of Android 4.2. But if you want to give this keyboard a try, it’s already available for download under two cases:
Case I: If your device is not rooted, but you have the stock Android keyboard either active or disabled by your OEM (Motorola for example), you simply download the .APK file and install it. Obviously this requires that you allow the installation of apps from unknown sources in your device’s settings. Worse case scenario is that the app simply won’t install if you don’t meet any of the criteria, so our advice is that you try this first. Sadly though, if you’re not running Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich or above, this won’t work.
Case II : If case 1 doesn’t work, you would have to flash the keyboard onto your device. Obviously this requires a Rooted phone, and well, worse case scenario is actually worse if something goes wrong.
