Is there no Swype version for Moto?
I just switched from an Eris and I had multiple colors of the Swype apk file but I cannot find one that fits my screen, per the error I get.
Anyone have one to fit the Moto or is there not one?
I found a good copy by Googling anyway. Let me know if you need it.
Here is the URL to the post containing themed colors for almost all Android device resolutions of Swype.

one good place to look for all things droid related is droid-life.com. Its run by Kellex, and he has a downloads page with all things that work on the Droid. Excellent blog
the free alternative, is called shapewriter its on android makret. in the end i didnt bother with it, as i had a real keyboard, but try it out, i know that the beta APK which was flying around has now expired i havent looked for a new one since.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=671070
ive now got swype working, well yes its installed.
bugs out when u got to landscape.... and then shape swyping doesnt work. but you can use it as a normal keyboard
this is the file i used.

Hey. mountaineerndixie i need the copy because mine doesnt work in land scape mode. thanks
Same here..
swype 5612 dead
anyone got the new beta ripped?
the new beta works ok in portrait, and is almost useless in landscape mode.
the older 5612 build that has just expired worked 100% flawless in my opinion.
it would be nice if someone could find a way to edit out the time bomb in that build so droid/incredible/nexus users alike could enjoy a working version of swype again
edit:
ive switched to shapewriter. works a bit better, especially for words that have double letters. the main things i miss about swype, is the broad landscape keyboard - great for typing passwords without having to use the slideout, and the options-abc gesture to bring up the arrow pad
shapewriter is great because it has gestures for cut, copy, paste, select all and other useful options - most importantly it works on my phone where swype no longer does that well
The new beta works fine in landscape mode. Droid Life links to a version that has been modified for the Motorola Droid / Milestone. If you go to the thread it mentions, you'll find smaller versions that do not have all fo the extra languages.
I'd link it but the forum won't let me.
My only complaint with Swype right now is the memory usage. It's consuming 31 megs of RAM just to run in the background. I know that Android will manage memory as needed but that's almost as much as Android System is using.
I have tried every swype link I can find. I have uninstalled and reinstalled. Each time it still tells me that I need to upgrade my copy of swype. Amy ideas?
Not really. I never received the expired message for 5612 but I uninstalled it and reinstalled the newer version anyway. Maybe try uninstalling it, power cycle your phone, and then install the new version?
What do you mean power cycle? Just take the battery out?

Here ya go, get it while it's hot!
Hang onto your power button, select "turn phone off", give it a second or two, turn it back on. Taking the battery out would accomplish the same thing.

Remove swype AND installer. Reboot. Try an apk.
Man, I almost cried last night when I saw my swype not working. Hopefully this works. I don't know why they don't put it on the app market, I'd be willing to pay.

I wondered if anyone has tried SWYPE on the Desire and if there are alternatives to it? The videos of Swype look fantastic.
yep have it running on mine and it is perfect, much better than shapewriter, it does however stop the pinch zoom from working, this only seems to work with the stock keyboard.

Do you mean the pinch zoom doesn't work at all on the phone or just to enlarge the keyboard?
Where do you get swype for the android by the way?

As my android is german, I don't exactly know what the menu items are called, but it should be something similar:
1. Download the .apk file and copy it to your phone's SD card
2. Go to Settings -> Applications -> Check "Unknown Sources"
3. Use an app like ApkInstaller, browse the apk and install it
4. Settings -> Language and Keyboard -> Check Swype
5. In an input field, long-press the field, choose "Input Method" and "Swype".
6. If you wish, change the Swype settings in Settings -> Language and Keyboard -> Swype.
That's it.
thanks for the comment. I am looking for apkinstaller in the marketplace but it's not coming up. I tried installing a couple of other apk installers but they both failed....
I'd post the QR code, but as I am a noob, I'm not allowed to.
So google for "apkinstaller" and you'll find it.
If not: What's the error message you get?

Thanks... I used an EoE installer in the end and that worked like a charm... Got Swype working but it's been crashing quite a few times..... I wonder when they will open the beta or release this as it does look fantastic.
I use Astro, just do a search for this app, very easy once installed.

Swype for the Desire - Just get it.
Sorry if this is an old thread, but just cottened on to swype thanks to the Mobile Buzz widget informing me. I'm new to Android and only had my Desire 2 months.
It is app nirvana! I'm running the beta now (1.56.30), and I must say, when it runs out and I have revert back to the stock keyboard and tapping away, I'm gonna cry. It works so well. Has increased my typing speed at least 3-fold. (HTC Desire with stock 2.1 ROM).
The only thing I'd like to re-enforce that was covered in another post, is that it's not made very clear by the developers how to start using it! After installation, get to an input screen and do a long press, and select the 'input method' option and check the swype box. It will stick with your stock keyboard if you do not do this.
Will happily pay/donate for this when the full release comes out, and will be very surprised if this does not become the standard implementation for touch screen typing very soon. The swype keyboard also works well with the tradtional tapping method should you want to type something unlikely to be in it's database, so why not?
Very very impressed with it so far.
Edit: Noticed a slight weakness. Not sure if this is fair, but it is not so useful if you are using the phone in landscape mode. It works to a degree, but you have to stick with one finger per word/swype. Not easy if your thumbs are not up to reaching across your keyboard in landscape. Can be uncomfortable. Recommend sticking with fingers instead of thumbs! But for one-handed, portrait typing this is still the daddy.
the new beta version, what is the full version number? 1.56.30......., I already have a modded version 1.56.30.7625.t100 installed. also how long on average does beta version expire? After requesting for an invite ages ago, I finally got an email from them to use their beta. is it worth installing it??
So I'm using swype on an unrooted device and when ever I trevor reboot my phone or some times just randomly the newest version of legit swype stops working, I reverted to the last version I was using and it fixed it.does anyone else have this issue and do you know how to fix it.
Thanks,
Cryous

I'm using the beta now and think I'm having the same issue. Basically after a reboot I have to select the normal input method then select swype.
Last I looked on there forum it's a known issue with no solution at the moment. Something about when the licence is loaded is after the program and it generates a conflict. Iirc.
oh well, once its fixed il go to it currently I'm using 2.10

I am having the same issues with Swype. I am rooted but same issues.
I've always had that problem since I got my first legit copy of swype. It doesn't work after a reboot/startup. Just gotta change input, then change it back to swype. I'm on 2.15 swype currently.

Just checked that version out.. It looks like an old version of SWYPE. I found some other themed ones on Mobilism that look really nice.
This is their copy protection in action, and that bug has been there for several releases. Very annoying. They know about it.
This Issue is very annoying but I'm glad that Swype allowed me on the beta test group. If switching back and fourth text input apps don't work, I uninstall and reinstall Swype.

I am an official beta user....but this also pisses me off. They know for many releases and do not fix it. I would use a hack version if I wasn't so lazy to find one I liked.
The latest beta has somewhat of a fix for this.
If you keep the Swype Installer around, there is a button to Generate License. And that fixes the whole rebooting not recognizing device issue.
This bug seems to happen to me everytime I enter into Airplane mode, then reboot my phone.
Isnt it just faster to switch inputs takes less than 5 sec to switch to standard then back to swype. After that it is good till next reboot.
BTW I have a second DInc and the license would not register on the second device...wierd. I put SlideIT on it but may look for the hacked swype to solve both problems.
I use an old version of swype that is hacked even though I'm a beta user, because I cannot stand the switching inputs thing
Sent from my HTC Incredible
Recent version of myn's warm rls5 and up fixed the problem for me. Swype always works on boot, I hated the input method thing, yea it was simple and easy but I'm glad it's fixed for me at least.
Anyone else try myns yet?

Does it play Crysis?
Is it a simple matter of uninstalling the pre-installed swype through something like Titanium and then installing?
I just installed it. The buttons are bigger and supports tapping. I used bloatfreezer because I cant uninstall it from DJ_Steves 1.9.0..its good
Dang it, I hate when keyboards have fullscreen input in landscape. I like to see what I'm replying to in texts and emails. Other than that I like the new word selection method, much better than the pop up.
I only use portrait personally and love this new beta. light years ahead of the built in version. I'm on the lite rom and used boat freezer to freeze it similar to the poster above. Install was smooth after that.

yup. i followed this
Get a root file manager (I use root explorer)
1. Change your default input method to anything other than Swype.
2. Mount file system as R/W
3. Delete (or move/rename) \system\app\swype.apk
4. Delete (or move/rename) \data\dalvik-cache\[email protected]@[email protected]
5. Delete (or move/rename) \system\lib\libSwypeCore.so
6. Reboot
7. Download and Run the latest Swype Beta installer
8. ENJOY!
just looked up bloat freezer, sounds like maybe an easier option. i like that this new swype is big on you tapping or swyping back and forth, the finished version will hopefully be the best way to type on a touch screen (i recently tried for the first time ever typing a message on a blackberry bold or whatever.....HATED it so much!)

It's still usable, the input box just takes up the whole area above the keyboard. Many keyboards do this, it just annoys me, especially on a phone with lots of real estate like the streak.

In swype 3.0 beta, can show enter button at ana application?
Sent from my Dell Streak using XDA App
just installed and i like the brighter color of the beta.
Can someone post a screenshot of the beta in landscape?
its ok but i think i like the older version
Ok.. weird problem here. I have removed Swype from StreakDroid by using Root Explorer to remove the three files (Swype.apk, libSwypeCore.so, & [email protected]@[email protected]). That seemed to work as far as now when I run the Swype Beta installer, Swype doesn't constantly force close on me. So thank you grasshoxda for helping me get this far.
Here is the weird part, when I go into "Select Input Method", it never changes from "Gingerbread Keyboard". ?? I tried "Fix Permissions" from StreakMod recovery and no dice. Any ideas?
I should probably mention that Swype (StreakDroid built in version, not the beta) stopped working since I changed ro.product.model=HTC Vision
edit... aw crap. Nevermind. I'm still on 1.8.1 http://forum.pocketables.net/showthread.php?p=70213
Fix for settings not being persistent was to uncheck the 3rd party keyboards (so Android and Swype were the only ones left) and reboot. Now I have swype.
Also to note: the landscape full screen text input sucks. Interesting that the Google search page in the stock browser doesn't do that though! ?? See attached cap.
I love and hate Swype. It is the first android keyboard I used and am very fast on it. I love how it only takes one swiping keypress to access the nav keys since I use them a lot, and how well it chooses the correct words.
However, since I am always changing roms on my captivates and nook color it is a real pain to constantly have to go through the stupid process of going to the website, signing in, waiting for an email, downloading the installer from an email link, signing in again, downloading and installing the beta, signing in again, generating the license (or whatever it is you are supposed to do- I am never quite sure), and often getting into some loop where I can never get the thing installed, then searching for an hour trying to find some hacked apk that does work. Currently, I cannot find an apk that works with my nook color, either. I am so ready to find a good replacement so I never have to use it again on any of my devices.
I use SlideIT a lot, but hate how you have to press 5 keys to access navigation and how it does not choose words as well as swype, and how it cannot handle single character words like I and a in the middle of a sentence, and how it cannot capitalize letters in the middle of a word (which my last name requires) without jumping through hoops.
Are there any swiping alternatives to these that work well?
although the ui isn't AS pretty, to me slide-it is more functionally sound for my use.

Hello,
I am writing this to help other newbies who may want to switch to Cyanogen for the first time on their Epic 4G. There were a few things I needed to do after to get everything working the way I liked and I figure this will save some people time.
What do I need to do prior?
There are many how-to's which will help but I had my Epic stock rom rooted so it was as simple as flashing cyanogen through recovery. Here is the link for a "how-to" root the stock rom if you wish to do it this way. It was the easiest way for me though the official guide says "Rooting the stock firmware is neither recommended nor necessary."
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C9eaCtiS0Bo
Where do I get Cyanogen?:
You can download it here. I am running the 10.0.0 stable build.
http://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Epicmtd_Info
I have no google apps:
This is a problem with any Cyanogen installation. Easy fix, download & install the gaaps package from the link below and your marketplace will be back.
http://goo.im/gapps
I don’t have Navigation:
Easy fix again, download the google maps app. Here is the app store link.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...DMsImNvbS5nb29nbGUuYW5kcm9pZC5hcHBzLm1hcHMiXQ..
I don’t have voicemail:
While you can use any voicemail app I wanted the one I had on the stock rom. I linked the app below and your voicemail will be back as soon as you install it. You need to open the app after so that it will activate.
https://od.lk/d/MjRfMjc2MDY5MF8/vtt-sprint.apk
I am getting texts from 9016 every time I get a voicemail:
From reading it seems the stock rom blocks us from seeing these but they are in fact needed for voicemail to work. To fix this I used a free app called “RedList”. Simply add 9016 to the RedList within the app, change the settings to disable both notifications, and this will problem will be solved. Here is the app store link.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...=W251bGwsMSwxLDEsImNvbS5saW5ub3IuUmVkTGlzdCJd
Text messages no longer have separate colors for me and my recipient:
The stock android text display is white and I hated this after getting used to Samsung’s nice colors but luckily you can solve this in two ways.
(One) A theme manager is built into the interface section of your settings page. After searching through almost every free CM10 theme I found this one I liked. It does NOT touch too many things only adding a brushed metal look and displaying text messages how I wanted them. There are a few colors to choose from but I went with Blue.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1992980
(Two) Replace only the MMS app with one that is color coded. Please note that unlike the above, to reverse this down the road you will need to find a stock mms app package with an installer. This is good for people who are sure they want this and only wish to change the colors of the messenger, while the above is good for people who like to switch themes often being able to revert back at any second. Link for the colored mms app.
http://www.mediafire.com/?hcjukwwkj4y41h3
Morror: https://od.lk/f/MjRfMjc2MDY5MV8
Facebook pictures no longer sync with my existing contacts:
This is a small problem, but still one that I got used to having with the stock rom and wanted to correct. From reading this seems to be a problem related to later Android versions, not just Cyanogen. The fix for this is easy as well, search out a free app called “UberSync for Facebook”. I had the regular facebook app installed & logged in prior and UberSync logged right in, got the pictures, and updated my contacts.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...wsMSwxLDEsInJvLndlZWRuZXQuY29udGFjdHNzeW5jIl0.
I no longer have Swype:
Despite having the nice physical keyboard (the whole reason I got the Epic) I still got used to using Swype here or there. I don't think I will be allowed to link this file here but you can find it on "certain" sites.
Notes:
Despite reports that Bluetooth can be problematic, I use it daily with an earpiece and have yet to experience any issues. GPS & 4G also work great. If any links are broken send me a PM! I check my email daily.

No MD5/SHA1 to compare against to make sure you have a complete download.
People's dropbox tends to get too much traffic and the link becomes dead.
You basically cut out the original author(s) of the file.
Based off # 3: They could need the ad revenue, and/or want to track download activity if they're self-hosting.

#1 - I think more people are concerned with a working link, if they download the archive after and it somehow gets corrupted i'm sure they will just try again
#2 - Valid point though my files don't have a great enough of demand to warrant this. If this changes I will change my links.
#3 The only thing that wasn't mine with a dropbox link was the MMS app and I only mirrored it in case the original link were ever taken down. If it will make you happy I can include the original link as well. For the voice mail app, its simply the sprint one ripped from a stock rom.
Though your points are valid, I think you are sort of just being picky bud

I reinstalled swype 3 or 4 times with various upgrades and it would always "expire" and I'd have to figure out how to get it working again. I am running 10.1 RC5 now and it has a decent generic swype-ish virtual keyboard. The thing missing is that you can't finish your text and go back and fix any misspelled words by touching alternate suggestions. You have to catch them as they come up. It seems like at first I could still do that, but I can't figure out how to get the suggestions to come back up.
I'm over swype.

You need a different Kernel. I have been using didy's kernel for a while. You flash CM10.1 and then you flash the kernel. CM10.1 has its own kernel that overwrites what you flash. So when you update, i think you have to reflash the kernel. I haven't screwed around with it since I installed rc5. I think I did CM, then the kernel, then the big mem patch. I never was able to figure out how to update the radio. I always ended up with "no voice service" or worse.
There is a thread in the developer forum that has the links to the kernel downloads. I am running one from may 30 and haven't updated.

When you say you couldn't update the radio, you just mean the cell service radio, right? Not wifi? I don't have cell service on my Epic, so that wouldn't be a problem for me... just as long as the wifi radio still works
Also, what specifically do you mean by "or worse"?

Thanks man, I'll give it a shot. CM10.1 is running pretty smoothly on my phone, but it could be better and battery life is not an issue for me.
I'll be sure to run backups before I do though :good:
Thanks
These tips helped - I just made the jump to CM 10.1, and although there are a few quirks it has been great. Your list really helped.
FYI, one thing I ran into was the auto-rotate didn't work. I followed the directions here:

the first time, there was no change. I tried again (and calibrated like 6 times) and it worked.
Has anyone noticed the physical keyboard doesn't always work the same? In some places, you have to hold down shift or Fn while pressing the key you want (for example - hold shift while pressing A, rather then pressing shift then pressing A). It's not consistent - some inputs work like the keyboard did before. Does anyone have any suggestions how to fix this. Not the worst thing (I'm just glad I still have a physical keyboard), but I would prefer it work the way it did before, or if that's not possible, at least be consistent.
And the smiley face button on the physical keyboard doesn't work either. I mean, it's like 2005 where I have to type out my 's!!
any phantom voicemail fix?
phantom voicemails?

I have noticed that the physical keyboard doesn't work right in the browser. Shift and Fn don't seem to work. I am usually in such a hurry that I just close it up and use the virtual keyboard if I want to have punctuation. It honestly didn't occur to me that it might be fixed. I can't offer that fix. I am just offering emotional support and validation.:good:

I noticed that the default browser you have to hold the shift or fn key while pressing the desired key to get it to work. Apps and os seem to work with a tap od these keys and then a hit of the desired key.I recall a while back a thread about the smiley and since it was not a default key the consensus was that they would not be adding the functionality to cm. While on the topic...same goes with the .com function.
