Downloaded Bionix Frost. Installed swype installer. Need help with swype. - Vibrant General

So I downloaded bionix frost today and then installed the swype installer from the swype website. It downloaded swype but when it got to the licensing part, it stopped and gave the error message: "The application Swype (process com.swype.android.inputmethod) has stopped unexpectedly. Please Try again."
I tried uninstalling/reinstalling, rebooting, and clearing data. nothing works and i get this popup all the time unless i have swype uninstalled.
any idea on how to fix this?

There is probably swype or parts of swype already on the phone. This must be removed in order for swype beta to work properly.
I dont know how to do that but im sure if you ask, someone here knows.

i removed all of it. if you have even a sliver of it left on your phone you cannot install the newest version. i removed the /app one and the libswypecore which were the only two parts. i have no idea what to do now.

Remove
System/app
Then
System/lib/libswypecore.so
Delete that.
Reboot
now use swype installer

i did that exactly. now, it will say swype is installed and then go to th licensing phase where it will end and i will get the popup.

You did something wrong

I think I might have had the same problem in the fast. Ended up just flashing a swype zip from the trigger 2.6 and it did the work for me.

wait do i install the flashable swype through clockwork recovery?

ugh. i flashed the swype from trigger to my phone and now its going "this version of swype is configured for another device. it will operate with limited functionality". it isnt working at all for me.

The thing is that swype was made flashable from Trigger rom. Uninstall every portion of swype that you still have, download swipe from market, you might have to sign up at for swype's site before you can use Beta.

Deleting the file in the system/lib folder is what finally got this working for me. Thank you so much! Thought my rom was ****ed and gonna have to wipe

Thanks! U couldn't install stuff for weeks but everything works now
Here's one solution that worked for me:
I installed Android Market 3.0.27 from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1166152
I cleared the market cash and Google services framework data as per the steps described here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=893538
Then the trick that did it was to disable app2SD under settings/applications.
I still am missing some apps in the market (Skype, Facebook, Google Maps, etc.) but at least I can install them from apk files now.
I hope this helps.
Cheers

Cannot uninstall swype!

Hi, I have installed Swype with a signed apk, I think.
Now it won't uninstall in any way, even if I try with adb uninstall /system/app/swype.apk (it says "Failure" )
The phone is detecting it as a system app.. how to solve this?
ps. I got the phone rooted with the one click root apk.

The only other thing I can think of is just to browse system folders for any trace and delete it.
is yours the official one? have you tried uninstalling the installer as well?
As I already told, it's a signed apk, i bet it's been customized. Which installer are you talking about?
Sent from my X10i using XDA App
yeah, so by signed, do you mean by the swype developers themselves? or you downloaded a cracked version off some other hole in the internet?
if you got it from the swype developers officially, you would have installed an installer, which will download the swype.apk, and then install it. so you would have swype installer (this is the installer i'm talking about), and swype.
Search for swype with root explorer and delete all traces...
bang delete...
gone...
Sent from my Rooted X10i using Tapatalk
Have you tried just clicking the apk again (as though you were trying to install it) and then just uninstall ?
Try shutting down the phone and remove the sd card.
Then start up the phone without the sd card, is it still showing?
I'm having the same problem. Have you got it figured out?
The SD card trick won't work. I searched for anything concerning swype with root explorer and deleted every trace of it but it's still showing up in language settings.
If I try to install a non-signed version, the installation procedure fails...
Well who cares anyway.. I'll be wiping all the phone content when 2.1 comes out

New Market

Somebody tried to install the new market?http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=868767
Would be nice, if somebody try. I cant get it worked. Apk install fails und zip too.
just tried, the normal apk, and the update.zip
( com.android.vending_2.2.6.apk ) and ( Vending-2.2.6-signed-testkeys.update.zip )
doesnt work for me :/
No luck there either, force closes everytime no matter how installed (update, install, plain apk replace...). Logcat says the app is lacking GAPPS access permission (permission to access gapps account). Guess it's some API mismatch?
it supposedly works when updated ->2.1.2 -> 2.2.6. Haven't tried yet...
i succeded to run it on my milestone with CM6.1..but only for a few seconds. i cleared the data on old market app,then wiped the cache and put the new market as Vending.apk in \system\app. it started and i had some seconds to try it out..then it FC'd and did not start anymore. nice GUI tho! hope someone will fix it soon.

same thing happened to me, tried both the zip and the apk and NO LUCK
i managed to install it but then i get continously force closes and cannot get into the market anymore!
Your best bet is to wipe pretty much everything and to inject is straight away.
Or just wait a week or so.
I used appbrain to uninstall the Market update, then I successfully installed an app before market auto-updated and resumed its regular force close programming.
Crappy workaround, but it gets the job done.

Upon further testing, the trick is to open up the newly installed app before market updates. I do this by keeping the notification window open while the app downloads, and then clicking on the app as soon as it is finished downloading. Soon after, market will auto update and forceclose.
Reminds me of the old nintendo timing.

what rom are u using? imm running cm6 and i still have the old market
I saw somewhere a market that was either new or themed. It had a dark grey theme...not the typical white and green.
Does anyone know anything about this? Is this the NEW market?
Is there a way to theme the market?
Can anyone post old market .apk? I installed the new one and i'm not able to enter into apps and install/update them. Everytime I have force closes.
And didn't backuped the old one so i can't restore it.
I'd be glad if anyone upload it.
#EDIT
Got it. If anyone have the same problem as me:
-uninstall new market via app manager
-download Vending.apk
-put it to the system/app and install

Anyone have a zip of this, right now my market is borked, can't get one to flash, though i know i could just flash gapps all over again, but i really don't want to to that, though there is nothing wrong with doing that.
You *should* be able to just copy the APK to your sdcard, then run it via a file manager like Root Explorer. That'll apply the update.
If it doesn't work... You're more than welcome to try CM7, flash the 1/14 gapps, then install the update. Worked perfectly for me.
Installed fine here

ALL u have to do is resign it use signapktic n it should install fine then

Shouldn't. What ROM/gapps are you running? I got mine to work based off the CM7 1/14 gapps, followed by downloading the above APK and installing it from Root Explorer.
If it doesn't work check the box that allows you to install programs from unknown sources... Try that and see if it works

UPDATE: Latest "Market" Now 3.3.12

Update: 11/20/11 Unofficial Market update which brings it to Version 3.3.12. Better integration with the Music market. You can now download free music and purchase music as well. Sorry U.S.A. only for free music (?)
How to install: download apk and install like any other apks.
http://db.tt/0j3ii5Oq
Here is the latest (leaked?) update of the Market which brings it to version 3.3.11.
And here's how I installed it: I am currently on CM7 nightlies
Download .apk (Market-3.3.11.apk)
Open Root explorer (or any file manager w/ root access)
Move New Market .apk (Market-3.3.11.apk) to system/apps (make sure to mount R/W first)
Move (or delete, but I suggest to move .apk just in case) older market .apk (Vending.apk) to your sdcard
Rename new market as Vending.apk
Fix Permissions (rw--r--r)
Exit Root Explorer (or any file manager)
Reboot
Done! Whew...
OR...
Download .apk
Rename New Market .apk to "Vending.apk" (w/o the quotes)
Install just like any other apllication
Reboot (if necessary)
*I didn't get the chance to try the second option so it may or may not work, but it kinda made sense...
**not sure if (Vending.apk) is the same name for SENSE ROMS (I don't remember) but just make sure to rename it the same way...
FOR MORE INFO... MARKET 3.3.11
Sounds like a lot of work for nothing. Have you tested and confirm that you can buy a new app with this new market apk?

Try and clear "market" data through the application settings and reopen the market. See if that worked...

It won't install for me. It keeps saying application not installed. If I use root explorer to place the .apk in the /systems/app folder I just get force closes. Clearing data doesn't help either. I have downloaded it several times thinking it was a corrupted download. I'm at wits end here. I have done everything in this post even before I read it as I have updated to all the other previous market releases without issue.
But for some reason this one just doesn't work. I thought maybe it wasn't working on cm7.1 nightli or or the evo shift but some of you have it working so that isn't it. Let me redo this and maybe format cache and dalvik see if that helps.

did you rename the .apk of the new update?
I had zero issues with the new Market. I just installed it like any other .apk. The new Market is very nice. Many small noticable differences. Like when on the My Apps page and you switch accounts it leaves you on the My Apps page instead of reloading the whole damn Market. Overall new Market is definitly an improvement and Vicodan should stop being such a hater

I did try that, but no luck. I'll probably just ignore it until the next time I flash a ROM. Then it'll fix itself, so that's fine. I imagine it's only going to be a few days until I do that anyway.

Titanium Backup can restore all your Market links. I believe there's also other apps designed just to do that too. Use TB or search for an app that restores Market links.

If your use titanium backup to restore or install your apps go into the settings and use market doctor. This will fix missing links to apps in the market that you have installed.
