[Q] Anyone else's swype not working? - EVO 4G General

I'm on cm6 and I had to download a different version of swype. It stopped working this morning and I was wondering if anyone had the same issue?

Yep, me too. Sucks, casue I loved the way mine was themed

What's the new version?

2.29.71 is current

The new swype made me have to uninstall swype and the swype installer, then reinstall, it was worth it though, the prediction is s million times better.

Mine also stopped working when I went to CM7 N17 and for some reason I wasn't able to re-install swype with swype installer so I just signed up with a new e-mail and everything is working again.

Keyboard

What is a good keyboard for X10?
I am using shapewriter right now, it is pretty good, but i am not too used to that way of typing.
Any other good keyboard are ppl using?
HTC IME seems popular.. but I'm using SlideIT.. which I love.
HTC_IME is good. Swype is better!
I can't find swype on the market.
you have to download the .apk from their website. just google swype. also, swype isn't working. I really like the look of the keyboard, but it just doesn't want to work unless I type letter by letter. Shapewriter works fine though, hmm..
yeah I have both the hacked HTC keyboard and Swype, at first I used the HTC one all the time, but now Swype is the only way to go. It's SO fast and "intelligent," seriously everyone should install it and give it a go
anyone can give me a link for downloading HTC_IME, and how can I install it?
the tutorials....hehhehe

I'm typing on the swype keyboard right now.
Use the motorola droid apk. Works with the x10. That's what I'm using since you can no longer download it on the swype website.

Hi,
Where did you download yours? And what version are you using?
I went to their website but the beta testing is closed due to overwhelming responses.
I googled it and found a site hosting this file, so I downloaded it to test it.
My version is 1.25.16.5612 and I am sure this is not the latest beta version as mine seemed a bit buggy at times. But so far I am enjoying the swype!
i've tried many different keyboards and there isn't one that i fully fully like. currently i'm using swype, my favorite out of the few that i've tried (original android, HTC, and better keyboard)
Here is the thread that contains the APK for anyone interested.

My version is the same as yours. I too had a little problem with the keyboard crashing on me with a select few letter combinations. I was trying to teach it cuss words, and swype crashed when i tried to enter "pu**y". Had to turn off the "Word Prediction" option. I also disabled "Tip Indicator". Since the little tweek, it's been smooth sailing for me. I hope it helps you. Good luck.
Just downloaded swype and its fantastic. I'm amazed at the accuracy.

Swype on cm7

Hey guys sorry I couldn't decide which forum to put this in.
Anyhow Im running nightly builds and I signed up for swype on the website, downloaded-installed it. When I one touch type the letters appear, but the actual swype feature does not work, no words come up in the text box. After a while it gave me a message saying this keyboard is not made for this device.
Does anybody have the apk for glacier? Or is there another solution. I'm horrible with pushing through adb and I'm not home anyhow to try. Thanks in advance for the help!

This'd be the right forum, I think.
Swype beta installed just fine for me using the latest stable CM7, but mysteriously vanished since last night. I'm not sure if it's a problem with my SD card or with CM really.

I've installed Swype many of times on my many different ROMs. This guide is correct, but for some reason I can't get it to work on the latest CM7 either. I'm probably going to flash back to down to an older version. Seemed to operate a little bit better anyways.
Having the same problem. It would work after a fresh install of Swype, then after a while, it loses the swype ability. I'd have to reinstall it afterwards. It wouldn't be too bad, only I lose the words that I added in the dictionary. On CM 7.0.2. Any help would be nice.

new swype sucks

is it possible to use the old swype on the s2?
I hate the layout, they added in that dam language button that takes up spacebar room, so I always misclick.. and if I ever hit it it changes my keyboard to spanish, plus the comma is where the spacebar used to be.. worse of all you can't double click to highlight a word, my swype speed is crippled.. so is it possible to get the old swype on here?

You should be able to. At least you need to be rooted and signed up for the swype beta program. Using titanium backup you can uninstall the swype on the phone. Then you can proceed to install the swype beta installer on your phone to get the latest swype beta on there.
I too am not really happy with the keyboard options on the SGS II out of the box. I pulled the LatinIME.apk (aka stock gingerbread keyboard) from cyanogen mod to get my stock android keyboard back since the samsung one made the message screen jump around like a kid on a sugar high .
try Swift Key for me the best keyboard for fast writing
okay ill try the swype beta, its different than the swype we have now?

I found the latest swype beta caused fc's. Eventually found an older (hacked) version that works well.

Swype 3 Beta

Just an FYI for anyone wondering. I was able to install Swype 3 Beta, despite the indication not to.
On their website it indicates that you should not install on any devices that had Swype pre installed.
I had no problems after uninstalling Swype via Titanium and proceeding with their inStall process

Any benefit for Swype 3 over what we have on our Epics right now?
Ummmm, not necessarily, it handles things just a bit smoother though, I've been digging swype as of lately because I'm on EE03 so the kb lag throws me off quite a bit, but other than that, not too much of a gain, not too much added to the options menus.

Hmmm well thank you. One thing I'd like is the ability to tap and still have autocorrect... like FlexT9, but FlexT9 won't let you Swype for the ! and ? which REALLY bothers me.

I've been using flex t9 for several weeks and I found the prediction engine frustrating at times.
I do like the new predicted word bar like in t9, much easier and more intuitive.

You might try SlideIT keyboard
You might try SlideIT keyboard. Available on the Market for almost a year and works very much like "Swype" - in fact, I prefer SlideIT, which seems to accommodate for the eccentricities of my texting technique better than Swype... http://www.mobiletextinput.com/Download/

it has this now... kinda like the gb keyboard
I just tried downloading it from an external source (because the Swype beta registration email would not send, no matter how many times I requested a new one) and upon installation, I was bombarded with a never ending barrage of Force Close missiles until I went into System App Remover and killed it and restored my previously uninstalled but backed up stock Swype..

I've used that, but I don't like it as well because it's built-in dictionary is not as good so when you swipe on their app, the right word doesn't always come up.
Edit: Swype 3 is pre-installed on the EF02 GB Leak rom.
Not only I t a beta its higher than the beta ef02s swype is 3.4

My only complaint with swype (which is a very small complaint) is i wish there were downloadable themes like go keyboard ect.

Thanks for the update. Using it now and all is great. Love swype. Now they just need to make a tablet version, i.e. one that has split keys....Not sure how that would work with swype....hmm

I got the Swype notification update the other day on two phones but the download stayed on 0% the whole time even with a solid signal.
I haven't been prompted since for an update, can someone post the version number of the latest update so I can compare?

I tried it out with build 16 of the branch that will be CM9 installed... worked quite well, just didnt' care of the little keyboard that comes up in the notification area. Didn't have a chance to research what it was about as I had to swap back to an old rom for a while. But I definitely make sure I install swype on any rom I install.

Yeah, whenever I get a notification, I'm never able to actually update through the preferences.
Like the other person said, uninstalling and going through Swype Installer again always works.
DragonGO!
I just love SWYPE, it's something iPhone don't have and they envy Android users. "Hey, how can you text so fast". I said, "chicken plucking is soooo typewriter days"
Anyone tryout DragonGO!, it's not that bad of an Apps.
Swype work for me in ICS Passion V13 without any problem, the bad think is the process of installing this new version, is very tedious.
anyway, another thing i could seen is that swype can retrieve any data swiped in your phone, says, password, credit card number, and other data. I cannot afford that.
I use my regular Keyboard. Swype is a very good keyboard!
