After a year and a half of ownership, I finally rooted my DX today. (Well, I rooted it several months ago, too: the day before the Gingerbread OTA update...so I took that and lost root.)
I have CM7 on my rooted Nook Color, so I wanted to try something different on the DX; I chose Liquid (Gingerbread) 3.2. I like the ROM a lot, but no matter what I've tried (have spent the last 2 hours Googling and experimenting), I can't get the latest Swype Beta to actually function. It installs just fine, I can poke at it in the Keyboard option dialog, but it doesn't actually get selected.
So, first part of my question is, has anyone gotten Swype to work with Liquid 3.2?
Secondly, what Gingerbread ROMs do allow Swype Beta to actually work?
Thanks in advance!
Make sure the check mark is on the keyboard in
Settings>Language & Keyboard.
Then on any text-entry window...long press the window until "input method" comes up.
I've ran the Swype beta on liquid... No problem...
And you can get the beta to work on any rom...
If it's a rom with it already installed... All you have to do is uninstall Swype then reinstall your beta...
Maybe try clearing data for it if it's not selecting
We have nothing to feat but running out of beer
Yep, I have the beta. Nope, it would not work on Liquid 3.2, no matter where I selected it (there are at least 3 places you can enable it, and I tried all 3—several times!).
At any rate...got Vortex RC installed, Swype worked just great, and there are some things about it I prefer to Liquid, so I think I'll be sticking with it for awhile.
Thanks for the replies!
Depending on the ROM, you might need to follow the same procedures that are necessary to get the beta working on the stock ROM.

As I said above, I got it working fine in Vortex. If I hadn't, however, it would have been helpful to have provided at least a link to how to get the beta working on the stock ROM.
Tough to do through the xda app.
BTW, I got it working in Liquid.

Hi there,
I'm looking for the Swype keyboard for the HTC Legend. I'm currently running a Froyo Rom. I tried one from this website, which didn't work so well, I don't know if it was me or the application because when I opened it, it told me that my trial period expired and that I should upgrade my Swype keyboard application. When I tried using Swype, it would show the line going across but it just wouldn't do anything when I go through the letters, I can only tap on the letters, which would be useless because I would just go back to the normal input method. Any tips? Ideas? Or links to a good Swype Keyboard? The one I tried using but didn't work was:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=660206
Thanks for the help.
I have that problem as well ever since the latest version of Swype and after I upgraded to Froyo. Not sure whose fault is it. I switched to Gingerbread keyboard since.
try this rar with version 1.6 swype apk file in it
EDIT: as asked by MOD
you can try to register on swype beta site, and get a newer version of swype. i'm using it, and it work like a charm.
I'mm using Swype since about 3 month. I registered to the beta-program, a friend of mine registered last week and got his version about an hour later. I'm using cyanogenmod 6.1 (Froyo) and swype works like a charm. I also tried cynogenmod 7 (Gingerbread), but there swype closes always.
Get rid of d/l links, or a MOD will. I won't report it, I'm just warning you. On XDA this is seen as warez, and Swype has asked that all download links are removed from here, and all other forums. This sucks, I know. Apply to beta test and hope.
Sorry guys
im on the official swype beta and running froyo...seems like everytime i reboot my phone i have to re-install swype? anyone else have this annoying problem?
Off to Gingerbread
I'm sorry if this is a little off topic, but can anyone please send me a working apk of the Gingerbread keyboard?
I'm on Blayo's ROM, 0.5. I've been trying the app in the market with no success. The app keeps getting FC as soon as I touch the keyboard.
Thank you very much!

I think that is the case if you install swype on sd.
Try to move the app to your phone.

I am having the same problem, but I'm using data2ext on balyo's b05 rom.I solve this problem by switching input method to touch input and then back to swype.swype is back to normal.

I am using swype on my legend, every reboot you need to long press in a text box and select the android keyboard, then doit again and select swipe, its a known bug. From what i understand it is a problem with timing. Hope this helps.

I was using Swype on Froyo (CyanogenMOD 6.1) without problems. With Gingerbread (CyanogenMOD 7 experimental builds) I had some trouble, as the Swype-keyboard disapeared immediately. After uninstalling Swype and reinstalling it via Swype-Installer everything works again as it should.

Please bear in mind the easiest and simplest way of correcting an issue with a ROM is to read the ROM's |OP|, and the easiest correction is to re-wipe (using both ohsaka's superwipev2 from here, and recovery wipe the list... do both twice)your phone well, then reflash the rom...
General Questions:
Q: This app or that app is not working....
A: wipe and reflash....
Q: This or that app won't work on Ginger Yoshi, but worked fine on Froyo Yoshi
A: Some developers have not supported their work on the 2.3 line yet... it is a developer issue, not a ROM issue....
Q: I get error whatever trying to flash the ROM in recovery?
A: Download the link again, wipe and reiinstall.
Q: Google Setup FC's (that's force closes)
A: make sure you have an ext partition set up, preferably ext4, wipe (see above) and reinstall ROM
Q: Why isn't this or that incorporated in the ROM?
A: Either because it breaks something, or maybe it was FORGOTTEN, we all do this for the betterment of the community...
Q: Do I need to wipe before upgrade?
A: Unless it specifically says no wipe update, which yoshi has yet to do thus far, YES YOU NEED TO WIPE!! it GREATLY reduces issues... (on another note even the CM team has made a post by a Senior Mod here)
Q: I ask questions before searching or reading....
A: You will either be flamed or ignored...
G1/32B
Q: My phone hangs on boot?
A: Make sure you have the 2.22.27.08 or 2.22.28.05 radio and the 1.33.0013 or 1.33.0013d spl... available here
32a
Q: Can I use the new 6.35 radio?
A: NO!! it says so in the ROM's OP, you should be using the old 3.22 radio, and the 1.33.2009 or 1.33.2010 SPL.
Q: What kernel should I use?
A: this one...
Q: Why do I have to flash a radio, on other ROM's I don't?
A: Because that's what the Dev says, the is YOSHI's ROM not Mr. XYZ...
MT3G 1.2
Q: I am confused, on what to do?
A: check this post hereby jjrumph
Q: What kernel do I flash?
A: Well you can flash 1 or 2... this oneto get you booted, it will work, you can also flashthis one modded by ratking with an extra 10mb of space...

Most everything runs great. Text to speech settings force closes which looks like it's addressed in next release.
Only issue for me is that I'm trying to install Swype using Swype Installer. Keep getting Data network experienced problem message try again. Keep getting this. Had it installed on CM 6.1 with no issue.

Okay, I've uninstalled Tweetdeck, cleared cache, rebooted and reinstalled.... and still getting FC. I'm lost as to what is going on here, everything else is working fine?
I'll just have to wait until the next Yoshi Ginger release and perform another wipe to see if that fixes the issue.

If Swype is checked in settings, then try long press text area and choose other keyboard. The do the same thing, long press and press Swype and see if that works. Thats what I had to do if I rebooted on 6.1

Hello all,
My first post here, I'm checking out friend's phones that have GB running and really like the way things look and feel. Also seems to have more options or functionality over 2.2... I was wondering what the most efficient way to go from Liberty 2.0.1 over to GB would be? I really haven't wanted to change form 2.0.1 since i've had it basically the speed and function is nice as is... Is there a good reason to go to GB from Liberty and and how? Appreciate the help!
Cheers
I say GB.
I believe that you can get a GB Liberty ROM from the donate Liberty Toolbox.
Sorry I can't help you out any further.

Well, I say you do yourself a favor and upgrade to rooted GB! If you like Liberty so much, you can buy the Liberty Toolbox and get the GB Liberty ROM (and support the dev at the same time), that way you can have both. The Liberty ROM is being updated regularly because technically it's not out of "nightly" status yet, but it is VERY stable and works great. The cleanest way in my opinion to get from where you are to rooted official GB, is to SBF back to stock froyo, and then use the 2 part GB install (I'll link instructions to both). Here's how to sbf http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N0jrXqqiepI. After you do that, follow these instructions using the files located here (use method two which is listed after the line that says "Patched update.zip (not signed)" in bold) http://www.mydroidworld.com/forums/...-5-596-release-thread-something-everyone.html. Once you are done with these steps, you can get the Liberty Toolbox and open it. Hit the "ROM Manager" tab, then "Nightlies" tab, and click on the latest Liberty Gingerbread rom (currently v0.8) and it will guide you from there. Enjoy!
Thanks!
@rruready, @Lofi Goosh-
Really appreciate the info! Super awesome I am gonna try doing it now- Thank you for the messages, hope your days are great and have a good weekend!
I'll post my results here when I get things set up-

If your looking to get a lot of different options, go to cyanogenmod. The only thing not working on it is the camera and gps, but it is way worth it. just look up a video on youtube of cyanogenmod 7
CM7 is what I'm running and there are definitely more bugs than just the camera (which has a workaround) and the GPS (which there is a fix for); however, I'm still using it because even with all the issues, it's still rocking my world.
CM7 for the Droid X (CM4DX) can be found here:
http://rootzwiki.com/showthread.php?389-ROM-BETA-CyanogenMod-7-for-the-Droid-X
@ Maltmix, you may just want to try both Liberty GB and CM4DX as it really all depends on user preference.
Thanks for the great links and advise everyone! In regards to SBF, I think I have everything set up I had downloaded the 2 part file for 2.3.340 installed RDSLite, and installed motorola DX drivers, but RDSLite won't see my X.. I noticed alot of folks were saying something similar, not sure what to do from here.. I want CM7 but want to wait till the bugs are more polished lol shiny bugs! ; )

I was able to find an alternative to RDSLite for you. The instructions indicate easy use... the definite plus side is that you can burn these ISO's or put them on a flash drive to SBF from any machine.

Gingerbread Camera
I have Rooted Gingerbread on my X now, went to the Liberty 0.8GB Nightly, and all was well.. I was prompted to update or modify if i wanted via Liberty, and did that, but upon recommended reboot, i got stuck in a bootloop..
Lots of time and patience later, somehow finally got into recovery and re-flashed GB..
Everything is back on my phone, but the stock camera isn't the updated one that froyo and GB have, it's somehow reverted to the earlier not so good camera..
I was wondering if there is a way to update the camera to the most current google camera?
Thank you guys and gals so much for the assistance, I hope to be able to help other people someday too!
Thanks LG! I should try cm7dx, too really like it then?

Ok I just flashed glite last night and everything is working fine except swype...I reinstalled swype off a backup and when I try to use the keyboard it instantly force closes. I even tried a different apk. Any ideas? I'm lost I like glite but if I can't get swype working ill probably go back to ota gb rooted. Also how the hell to I access the oc deamon on glite?
Have you tried fixing permissions? Also, the OC Daemon can be accessed through the Virtuous OC apk. It's somewhere in the forums >.<
Ok ill look for it. And yea I tried fixing permission, but that ran literally all night I canceled it when I woke up 8 hours later cuz I think it was just looping.

so I tried getting the beta from swype but the installer just gives me a parsing error. This is really frustrating. And looking for an apk is worse...I'm really regretting romming my phone with this rom. Not only that it freezes randomly...I did a proper install, when it does freeze and I go to pull the battery it is way hot! Anyways priority number one is swype, if I can't get that working I'm flashing my nandroid backup. All I really wanted was OC and possibly better battery life. Oh well any help?

Have not personally used G-Lite but Ive heard good things about it, Is it only with G-Lite that your battery runs hot? Sounds to me there is a problem with your phone/battery and that is causing the freezing,G-Lite is not overclocked by default so how did you get the OC deamon installed?I would try reflashing G-Lite and leave the OC out of it and see if that helps
Actually i did try that, and from my understanding it comes overclocked already to 1 ghz fresh from flashing. In either case i tried turning it up and down with setcpu, leaving the oc out, and pretty much everything i can think of to no avail. Anyways i re flashed my backup so I'm good right now but I also heard great things, but oh well guess it just didn't work out for me. Plus getting swype to work was impossible! lol i tried several different methods and had no luck so I just gave up I really wanted overclock, but I dont want to compromise swype or the reliability of the stock rom I'm running right now.
maybe when a 1.0.4 comes out? Hows xboarder mod compared to the stock ota pre-rooted?
You can try meXdroidRom! Its really fast and butter smooth, and you can choose to have the stock Android theme installed if you want.
Also comes with Swype built in too!
Sent from my HTC Desire Z using XDA App
Sign up to get the beta at http://beta.swype.com the old installers will give you the parsing error, or try it while connected to a more reliable connection like wifi.
You will need to uninstall swype that you currently have on the device, but it will work fine.
I will install the gamut of ROM's every once in awhile, but glite keeps pulling me back because of the battery life.
I did try the website and it was a nogo used wifi too and tried like 5 times oh well. I really want it to work
I just really need my phone working for work boo...anyways so any other rock solid roms out there basically stock launcher and theme?
Also oc and battery life and swype is a must! Lol

The Virtuous OC Daemon is included in Glite 1.0.3. Edit the files in /system/etc/virtuous_oc manually, or use the OC Beater app that was linked previously. Swype is also built into the ROM; however, it automatically uninstalls itself if you're installing Glite and aren't in the US (by design).
If you delete all traces of Swype (use Titanium Backup) then install the version from the Swype website, it will work just fine.
Glite is a VERY solid ROM, and you'd be hard-pressed to find something with better battery life. A 1.0.4 version should eventually be made available that merges in Tmo/HTC's latest 2.3.4 base.
Hope that helps.

I superwiped, and am living in the us and it still didn't install swype. I did get the rom off their official site so maybe it was that. The md5 checked out hmm maybe I'll give it another go. I enabled stock launcher and theme. So all good there.
I really want the updated version though...lol when!? Jk
Well reinstalled it today and wiped 3 times with superwipe and recovery wipe plus the roms autowipe. Got swype working finally I'm in the process of restoring apps. I know restoring system data is trouble but would restoring things like my wallpaper, bookmarks etc also cause problems I really. Don't wwant to setup my homescreens again! Lol
So apparently since the new Sprint ROMs include swype, swype beta no longer works on the EVO unless I go back to a froyo ROM. However this version of swype that's available with mik g is horrendous. Any one know of a solution to this?
Thanks.
Which beta you using? And I'm using the latest Swype I think but not sprint installed.

just uninstall swype and swype installer, reboot, d/l the newest swype installer and you should be good
That works best. That's actually what I usually do..I'm just delirious right now.

Yeah, i found another thread on this after my post. I tried following the directions but neither the app or the lib file were in my system. I deleted things through titanium before searching and must have removed something important because when I reinstall I just get force closes on restart.
I'm using mikg if it makes a difference. I'm having other problems with this ROM so i might as well just start over. I used mik froyo for ever without problems. I had everything the way I like it. Then found out the details about carrier iq. Rather then try doing it manually I went for the new ROM.
Anyway thanks for the help sorry for the rant.
