Swype died today - Hero CDMA General

My version of swype (1.25.16.5612) died today. I searched and found a newer version (1.56.30.7625) but it tells me it was made for a different phone so it won't work. Does anyone know of a link for a working swype for our phone? Thanks.

I just dl'd THESE, about to try them.

Yep that works.

The time between nukes is getting sooner and sooner. I wonder if they are planning on releasing something soon.
However, I always thought Swype decided to go the manufacture route and sell directly to them... But then they have that Beta... But then there is no indication they are going to sell this as an app and they only market Swype as a feature of certain phones.
I think they might have an old licensing contract that states they can't sell Swype as an app to individuals but that contract might be expiring soon.
Does anyone know what the hell is going on with that company and Swype?

I have no idea what the inside scoop is but it boggles my mind that Swype isn't on the market for $5 or even $10.

Agreed - I could do five. btw/ thanks much for posting up the links in the other thread. I went to text my g/f this morning and was horrified I could not swype. I was so dazed, I just gave up on texting for that moment. =P
1.56 working perfectly.

Good call. Apparently they release for everyone today.

Yep, I can confirm that... I never had Swype before, but I registered on the Swype Beta website and downloaded it today. Working great so far.

Works for me too. No need to try Beta yet

yeah my version of swype died the same day as the TS did, found a verison that worked later on that day, then got my beta invite that night. It was swype over-load

Where's the 2.1/ MR that was supposed to release today? (4/9/2010)

Has anybody heard any news if the "MR" is still coming out today?
MR= Mantience Release

whats in this MR anway?
no one knows but it is probably some kind of bugfix/update. NOT 2.1

I think its the SMS fix
damage referenced an update in a few weeks. im quite sure he knows the factual release date of 2.1, but cannot tell. if we know not to expect a major update from damage for a few weeks, we can assume itll be after the official update.
the mr is probably for the mms issues or something we read in that memo? idk...dont be expecting 2.1 though
The only update I'm looking out for is this one!

I have an update scheduled for Friday.
Beta testers will be testing out some new stuff tonight.

Yeah I wouldn't expect anything in the way of 2.1 just yet. When I had a blackberry they would literally release like 5 or more leaks before the actual update. We've had 2 so far that I know of.

I'm following the Sprint forums and they're saying 2.1 update will be out by the end of the day.
I learned not to count on anything when it comes to "release" dates for roms/upgrades. If something comes today, awesome. Otherwise whatever, I'm rather pleased with my 2.05
You're the "Sprint Representative/Technician/Manager", why dont YOU tell us...Or, is your title just a glorified title for "Sprint Lackey"?

LOL Bastards!!! Its funny, I took the test and passed everything for the Rep position here in Rancho, but for some reason they never call me back. LOL They probably get scared when they see I worked for Verizon and at&t. LOL
the admins on the sprint forums already stated (many times) that the 9th was a date provided through false information. in other words, the mom people had pics of, was wrong.
I don't even think Dan Hesse knows when the update is, lol

Vince, different areas have different requirements, but I know that Verizon where I live will rarely hire someone with prior cell phone experience. They want to brainwash you with their ways and methods, for the most part. Not sure about AT&T, when I interviewed with them, I was so turned off to their practices, I pretty much told them I wasn't interested right then & there. Never expected a call back, nor did I want one. Going back to Sprint this week, so my sources will be in full effect, I'll see what tidbits I can get you guys.

Yea I figured as much. I did some consulting work for at&t a few years ago and I wasnt too fond of their practices either. Once I was finished there I bolted with a quickness.

Unfortunately this is not true. The evo is coming out May 24th. Therefor there is no time for a preorder. I am a sprint rep So watch for it soon

dude, calm your b**ls. stop bit***ng, maybe he fu***d up but that isn't for you to whine about. seriously
Confirmed, I'm a Shack employee, we got the memo a couple days ago.
*edit* though I expect it will be a 'pre-order' consisting of the "wireless virtual inventory program" and will probably happen a few days before the official release (if indeed it is May 24). This might not be what most would consider a full blown pre-order. Too early to say.

Why would I do that? He simply posted in the wrong place thinking that Sprint users might be happy to know about this. If we banned every user that posts in the wrong place, about 50% of the member would get banned.

Sprint Update to 2.3 Android

According to a friend of mine (works for Sprint), he says some people have downloaded 2.3 on their phones. They showed him, i have searched everywhere and find no information on the 2.3 release.. Was he mistaken?

As a retention supervisor I can officially say that training has taken place for 2.3 on our Evo's, no release date though... Then of course I realized I had just clicked on an engadget link while I was at work

What kind of details can you share about 2.3? So far Google has been nothing but a tease.
Your statement seems to confirm that EVO's will all receive 2.3? That is good news.

Had the issues on my Brother..and Dad's Epic's too.
And my friends G2 and my exs G1
the app has been broken through many versions over many months.
Some versions wouldn't notify me of anything, others would notify me constantly even with notifications off. I had to log out of FB to keep it from pissing me off.
Good to know its sort of stable now.
think ill stick with FLOW
Oh look, they fixed the keyboard and auto correct feature when posting a status update. I swear, that was the best break ever; I barely posted a status from my phone all week!
How they managed to break the keyboard is beyond me...but that's facebook...Billions of dollars, and they still have ****ty apps, no iPad app, a website that's outdated (design wise), ect.

Taking the plunge

Hey,
This morning my xoom arrived. The after spending £430 of my hard earned money I started to feel rather skeptical as I had never played with any android 3.0 tablet or even held the xoom in my hand before. At 11.00 the postman arrived to deliver, opened the box and switched it on. The initial impressions is that this is by far to best piece of tech I have invested in. Thinking back to my ipad I really did question why did i bother ith tht junk.
Just a quick thank you to all who advised on my previous posts about the xoom, it's brilliant.
Have a good day, and jordan
