Hey everyone, i am having problems with angry birds and swype not working on my V845.
I have heard from people that they both work on the 845 but that's not the case with this phone.
I have installed swype twice, and it does not work. It says touch the swype button, but it isn't there.

Now, with angry birds i hear the music, and when i press menu i see a bit of credits, and when i touch the screen it changes color to a dark green then light blue.

Have you tried search on these problems first?

With Angry Birds I have a similar issue on my IDEOS, but I search and found a solution - once Angry Birds has started (I hear the music and see the background image, but not the main images) I then lock the screen (on the IDEOS it is done with a short press of the power button), and then when you unlock the screen it is working. A bit of a pain having to do it each time, but then Angry Birds wasn't written for the screen resolution of the IDEOS (or the 845)

I haven't read the whole thread.

The "SlideIt" swipe keyboard works fine in the Vodafone 845 though you do need to practice a little to adjust to using it ona resistive screen. My daughter uses Slide It on her 845 and really likes it.
